Beginning of the Legend Poet Allama Sir Muhammad Iqbal

Iqbal started writing poetry at a young age and was posting it to Dagh Dehlavi for correction by the early years of college (the earliest surviving published ghazal comes from a late 1893 issue of a poetry magazine). A first high point was a poetry recital in Bazar-i-Hakeeman, Lahore, in 1896 where he received generous praise from Arshad Gurgani, an early poet of Mughal descent. "
