Iqbal's Sketch by Khushwant Singh

A lot has been written about poet/philosopher Allama Iqbal. But, the best piece I have come across was the one written by the celebrated Indian author: Khushwant Singh. Khushwant Singh has eloquently translated Iqbal’s Shikwa and Jawab-I-Shikwa, too.

I must say, his comprehension of Iqbal is very neat, indeed. This article gives a good insight about the distinguished and profound person that Iqbal was.
