(Bang-e-Dra-199-Book Complete) Masjid To Bana Di Shab Bhar Mein Iman Ki Hararat Walon Ne

Masjid To Bana Di Shab Bhar Mein Iman Ki Hararat  Walon Ne
Mann Apna Purana Papi Hai, Barsoun Mein Namazi Ban Na Saka

Though the mosque was built overnight by the believers
Our heart being old sinner for years devout could not be

Kya Khoob Ameer-e-Faisal Ko Sannosi Ne Paigham Diya
Tu Naam-o-Nasb Ka Hijazi Hai Par Dil Ka Hijazi Ban Na Saka

What a beautiful message did Sanusi give to King Faisal
By descent you Hijazi are, but in heart Hijazi could no be

Tar Ankhain To Ho Jati Hain, Kya Lazzat Iss Rone Mein
Jab Khoon-e-Jigar Ki Amaizish Se Ashak Piyazi Ban Na Saka

Though eyes become wet there is no pleasure is in this weeping
If by mixture of affliction’s blood tears pink could not be

Iqbal Bara Updeshak Hai, Mann Baaton Mein Moh Leta Hai
Guftar Ka Ye Ghazi To Bana, Kirdar Ka Ghazi Ban Na Saka

Iqbal is a good advisor, fascinates the heart in moments
He did become hero in talk, but one in deeds he could not be.

  1. I love this poem of Iqbal.I knew the verse Masjid to bana di shab bhar mein,Iman ki hararat walon ne
    mann apna purana papi hai,barson se namazi ban na saka.I copied the remaining verses from here.
    I wish I knew the inner meaning.Now I feel the task before me is to read it until I can deduce the meaning.
    I think I heard from my sister that Iqbal was referring to the mosque built in Washington.If someone knows,please let me know.Thanks.

    3. Masjid to Banadi Shabh Bhar Mein
      Which means they construct a Masjid in an overnight

      Imaan ki Hararat Waalon Ne
      These are people who have load of lmaan in their heart.

      Mann Apna Purana Paapi Hai Barson mein Namazi Ban Na Saka
      Our heart being old sinner for years devout could not be, which means yet we know that is must for every muslim to go for Salaat but nobody goes only few people go to Masjid everyday. He is showing the real face of muslims where they are lacking behind.

      Shab bhar means it is not a Masjid in Lahore.

    4. It means be practical not theoretical.Every thing has condition.Simply making building and walking in the school all the way can not give u the degree but u must go through the examination for passing it.

    5. THE POEM IS DEEPER THAN WHAT YOU HAVE COMPREHENDED. IT IS THE PHILOSOPHY OF HUMAN HEART VS HUMAN SOCIAL INTERACTION. IQBAL WAS ALWAYS FOR THE INNER SELF BUILD UP. HE HAS ALWAYS EXPRESSED THE TWO SIDED NATURE OF HUMAN BEING. ONE FOR HIMSELF AND ONE FOR OTHER. I WILL EXPRESS THE ENTIRE POEM TO YOU WHEN I HAVE AMPLE TIME.

    1. Masjid is a symbol of religious rituals which can not be meaningful if honesty of character and sincerity of purpose are not exercised in practical life. Saqi nama in bal e jibreel is also excellent.

  13. Masjid yaani ALLAH Ka ghar woh koyi paticular nahi hai balki har Momeen Ka Dil ALLAH ka ghar hai aur ek aam Insaan apne Nazariye se apne aap ko Muslim ya Momeen samajhta hai aur uss Dil ko ALLAMA IQBAL SAHAB ne paapi kaha jis dil mein ALLAH ne muqaam nahi kiya Masjid bana di shab bhar mein Imaan ki Hararat walon ne yaani ek imarat khadi karna badi baat nahi balki badi baat hai apne ALLAH ko uss dil mein banana jo ki duniya ki gandagi se paapi bana hua hai

    1. Great understanding. Namazi means true love for God Who is truth and uswa e hasana. The secret of getting rid of materialistic desires and temptations is to exercise truth honesty and sincerity in practical life.

    1. It is referring to Faisal Husein from Arab, who was a puupet in the hands of Britishers and bureaucrats who used him to destroy the Islamic Khilafat. He was from Hijaz (The mountain region near the western shore of Arab in which cities like Mecca and madina are also there), he was not loyal to the people of Hijaz.
