Apna Muqam Paida Kar


No two days in the life of a Muslim should be the same. A Muslim should always strive to do something new. Something different. Something more than the previous day.

Isi roz-o-shab main ulajh kar na rah ja
Ke tere zamaan o makaan aur bhi hain

Lose not yourself in the cycle of days and nights
Within your reach are feats even more

Dyare Ishq Mein Apna Muqam Paida Kar
Naya Zamana Naya Subho Sham Paida Kar


Iqbal's philosophy of khudi shows that man is neither soul nor body. Man is above both because he pessesses them. Iqbal's naujawan is a Man of Khudi. The absolute Khudi is infinetly creative. "Know thy self and success shall be thine" said by some Philosopher. Iqbal expresses if man becomes empror of himself then he can lead the world to his own direction. He says:

"The man of strong character who is master of himself
will find fortune complaisant.
....
He will dig up the foundations of the universe
and cast its atoms into a new mould.
He will subvert the course of Time
And wreck the azure firmament.
By his own strength he will produce
A new world which will do his pleasure
