Abstract
Employment of different poetical devices, linguistic tools and loftiness of themes are the success indicator of any poet. These things determine status of a poet and his writing. Allama Iqbal is one of the greatest ever poets produced by the Indian Sub-Continent. He is the national poet of Pakistan. His poetry fulfills the highest rank among the Urdu and Persian poetry. Hardly there is any poetic or linguistic device which has escaped him in his poetry. Apart from traditional Urdu and Persian literary devices, he has great benefitted from Arabic and Islamic teachings. We can find strong reflection of Quran, its style, meaning and its words in the poetry of Iqbal. He was the poet who translated many verses of the Quran into his poetry and those verses are well known and popular among people of every age, gender and social status. His poetry is a source to connect people with Quran and traditions of the holy prophet PBUH. In the present article I will discuss and quote the influences of Arabic, Quran and Islamic teachings upon the poetry of Iqbal.
