Bāl-e-Jibrīl (The Wing of Gabriel) is a powerful collection of Urdu poetry written by Allama Muhammad Iqbal. It explores deep spiritual, philosophical, and political themes, encouraging Muslims to awaken their selfhood (khudi) and return to the values of the Qur'an and Islamic civilization. Iqbal uses the angel Jibrīl (Gabriel) as a symbol of divine inspiration and spiritual strength. The poems reflect Iqbal’s thoughts on God, the self, society, and the West, urging Muslims to rise above materialism and rediscover their inner power through faith, action, and moral courage.
