Hello and greetings to all of you. I hope all of you are enjoying your journey on steemit platform. Today I am here to take part in another interesting contest organized by @cryptoloover .

As far as showing interest about poetry I have excellent piece of interest in poetry and I have learnt most of my lesson of poetry by heart. I consider a a person who did not like the poetry is just like a body without soul. The kind of poetry a person like is just show his interest towards the life. For example when the person young he mostly like the romantic poetry right now a days most of poet did like tehzeeb hafi anf Ali zaryoon. But when a person become old he like the poetry that is full of advice.

Which language do you use in literature and what language do like for poetry.

As far as concern as the language of literature as we are Pakistani so our national language is Urdu and the province from which I belong is Punjab so Punjabi is our mother language. So mostly like Urdu language and also Punjabi and some sort of English literature I also like.

Poetry looks stunning at understanding when you completely understand the poetry so the language must be a related to your literature that you can easily understand. So that is why my favourite poet also belong to my favourite language that is Urdu. I like him because he work hard for the betterment of Muslims of subcontinent by his efforts as well as by his poetry. At the time of struggle during the independence of Pakistan most of people was unable to understand English so wrote most of his poetry in urdu. His name is Dr allama Muhammad Iqbal.

Who is your favorite poet in your language, write about him.

As I mentioned above that Dr allama Muhammad Iqbal is my favourite poet. He was very wise and intelligent man. His poetry and efforts shows that he was very concern about the condition of Muslims at that time, he give his ideas and thoughts in the form of poetry. His poetry is actually divided into two parts the first part he wrote about the isaq e majazi that is writing about their love once who lives in this world.

While the second part of which poetry is full of enthusiasm motivation and spirit that is only for the people of the subcontinent. Hey god is early education from their parents and for higher education he went to Europe and got the degree of bar atla and become doctor of philosophy. He was also a good political worker for the Muslim League. In 1930 he gives the idea to the leaders of Muslim League that we should work for the separate Homeland where people can live according to their will.

Write about his popular books, lines etc

The journey of iqbal in poetry is very long and he is known as the poet of the century. His books include

  1. Shikwa and jawab e shikwa which is even very popular now a days.
  2. Bang e dara
  3. Quliyat e iqbal
  4. Bal e jibreel
  5. Faryad e umat

These are some famous books of Dr allama Muhammad Iqbal and many more are there still.

Some of his famous lines are given below

  1. Ki Mohammed se wafa tune to Ham Tere Hain
    Yeh Jahan cheez hai Kya Loh Kalam Tere Hain

  2. Khol aankh Zameen dekh falak tak fiza dekh
    Mashrakh se nikalte hue Suraj ko zara dekh.

  3. Phool ki patti se cut sakta hai hire ka Jigar
    Mard nadan per Kalam narm o najuk be asar

So that all about my favorite poet.
