Ram belongs to everyone and everyone has their own Ram. That is why everyone has defined Ram in different ways. Tulsidas believed in Ram, Kabir knew Ram and Nirala described Ram. But the truth is that Ram is one but everyone’s vision is different.
Ram was a god, but his human life was spent in a very ordinary way. He did not show any miracles like other gods. Rather, Ram was called a dignified man bound by law and order. Everyone wrote about Ram in their own way. Famous poet Allama Iqbal also writes about Ram in one of his poems.
Allama Iqbal has written about Ram- ‘Hindustan is proud of the existence of Ram’. In this poem, Iqbal tells people about the importance of Ram and also gives a message of contemplation to people to understand the importance of Ram.
There have been thousands of angels in this country
Due to whom the name of India is famous in the world
India is proud of the existence of Ram
People of vision consider him to be the Imam of Hind
The meaning of this line of Iqbal’s nazm is- there were thousands of god like people in this country. It is because of them that the world knows the name of Hind or Hindustan. We are proud of the existence of Ram and we consider him Imam-e-Hind or the leader who gives direction to the country.
Allama Iqbal uses words like Ahl-e-Nazar and Imam-e-Hind in his Nazm. Ahl-e-Nazar means spiritual vision. Imam means a leader. In the eyes of Allama Iqbal, Ram is such a leader who shows the right path to people and takes them from darkness to light.
