حکمت کلیمی
مرد مومن از کمالات وجوداو وجود و غیر او ہر شی نمود
English translation
The man of faith is a symbol of perfect existence: he alone is real; all else is mere appearance.
(According to pantheistic mystics, wujud (being), as such, belongs to God alone; all else is devoid of wujud and if they possess it, it is only as a reflection (zill). Here Iqbal asserts that man alone has independent existence and enjoys fullness of being. By wujud, Iqbal means strong and rich personality.)
Translated by Jamil Naqvi
Urdu translation
مرد مومن کمالات وجود (کے شاہکاروں میں) سے ہے۔ وہ وجود (حقیقی ) ہے، باقی ہر شے صرف (وجود) نظر آتی ہے۔
