ALLAMA Iqbal was an integral part of those who changed the destiny of Muslims of the subcontinent. The philosopher through his appealing and motivating poetry guided Muslims towards independence.

It was Iqbal’s dream to have a separate homeland, which we now proudly have. We as a nation admire his services towards Islam and Pakistan. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Iqbal. Many of us had not seen him in person but we know that he would be great in all aspects beyond one’s imagination.
