Shikwa and Jawab-i-Shikwa: Iqbal's Dialogue with Allah

4.5/5 ( ratings)

Though much of Iqbal's best poetry is written in Persian, he is also a poet of colossal stature in Urdu. Shikwa and Jawab-i-Shikwa extol the legacy of Islam and its civilising role in history, bemoan the fate of Muslims everywhere, and squarely confront the dilemmas of Islam in modern times. Shikwa is thus, in the form of a complaint to Allah for having let down the Muslims and Jawab-i-Shikwa is Allah's reply to the poet's complaint.
