Adviser to Prime Minister on National History and Literary Heritage Irfan Siddiqui Thursday said Allama Iqbal lived in the heart of every Pakistani however, people needed to understand his poetry and message and get spiritual guidance from him.
Talking to media at the inauguration of a photographic exhibition in connection with Iqbal Day at Aiwan-e-Quaid here, he said the poetry of Allama Iqbal was not just poetry but was a message.
“This is the message of Oneness of Allah and La Illah illa Allah,” he added.
The event was organized to mark the 139th birth anniversary of Allama Iqbal.
Irfan said the message of Iqbal was about “Khudi” or self, peace and love and this message would continue to be spread among people for all times to come.
He said the message of poetry of Allama Iqbal helped people in creating a self, adding it was a matter of pride for people of Pakistan that Iqbal belonged to their land.
From this land, the message of Allama Iqbal spread to humans living in other parts of the world, he noted.
