Ode To State Of Helplessness ( Iqbal's Ghazal )

                           Ode To  State Of Helplessness
             ( On knowing about the draft for law of endowment )

            It is long past that Muslims lost the exercise of authority,
            Fear of hereafter too departed from them,

           The Sheikh was fighting for rule for endowment,
           Ask him whether property is left for endowment,

                   ( Suggestions invited for betterment )

    * In 1911 Mr. Muhammed Ali Jinnah moved a draft for law of endownent for
   descendants in the Viceroy’s Council. It became law in 1912. It was the first successful service of the leader to the nation.
