ला कर बरहमनों को सियासत के पेच में
ज़ुन्नारियों को दैर-ए-कुहन से निकाल दो
— Allama Iqbal
Meaning
Do not draw the Brahmins into the complexities of politics; free the innocent ones from the house of falsehood.
Explanation
This powerful couplet by Allama Iqbal is a sharp commentary on the entanglement of religion and politics. The poet argues that spiritual seekers and religious ascetics (Zunnariyon) should maintain their detachment and purity. He critiques the tendency to drag those who seek peace and contemplation into the messy, conflicting web of worldly politics. It is a plea for the sanctity of devotion, suggesting that true spirituality must remain separate from the drama of power.
