rsian Remnants

Abstract

Every great creative artist revises his art and sometimes sorts out the essentials in this work of  art. Allama Muhammad Iqbal, like his Urdu Kalam, has also chosen his Persian poetry  strictly. There are several reasons for this choice. He was a prolific poet. Sometimes a part of  a poem or a Masnavi would have to be cut if it exceeded the appropriate limit. Sometimes the  poet feels the need for a partial or total change after he has composed it. Sometimes his  poetry is an emotional and immediate reaction to an event that he may not later find  appropriate. Poets also write temporary poems for their friends, which do not find a place in  their work later. Allama Iqbal also deliberately ignored many poems while compiling Persian  works. While studying the personality of Iqbal in modern times and the evolution of his  ideas, it is very important to collect the remnants of his Persian poetry.
