And how has Hope become among the secrets of God?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Before diving into understanding the secret, let\u2019s see what describes a Mard-e-Momin.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Who\u2019s a Mard-e-Momin to Iqbal?<\/span><\/h1>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3957\" src=\"https:\/\/dicecamp.com\/insights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/moon-light-shine-through-window-into-islamic-mosque-interior-300x169.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"630\" height=\"355\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dicecamp.com\/insights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/moon-light-shine-through-window-into-islamic-mosque-interior-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/dicecamp.com\/insights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/moon-light-shine-through-window-into-islamic-mosque-interior-150x84.webp 150w, https:\/\/dicecamp.com\/insights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/moon-light-shine-through-window-into-islamic-mosque-interior.webp 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A Mard-e-Momin is a \u2018Person of Faith\u2019, the one who has strong faith in God. This faith is described as \u2018the love of God\u2019 that guides every action of a person, regardless of the harm life brings to them. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">These are the ones Iqbal states as knowledgeable and wise.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">More specifically, Mard-e-Momin is not a staunch religious person. Instead, they are truly God fearing and deeply understand the teachings of religion. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Therefore, a Mard-e-Momin is compassionate, patient, truth speaking, and works with strategy, learnt from the holy principles of religion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What\u2019s the secret Iqbal reveals?<\/span><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The secret of resilience comes from life lessons of the greatest people in history. They had the knowledge and wisdom which is the very secret behind the remarkable resilience.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The \u2018knowledge and wisdom\u2019 poet refers to in the verse could be understood as two separate entities. <em>Knowledge<\/em> is the ability to distinguish the right from the wrong whereas <em>Wisdom<\/em> brings the power to a believer to choose the right over wrong.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Using the knowledge and wisdom a believer\u2019s mind is brightened and creates an energy to follow the right path. This path is characterized by patience and hope.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It\u2019s the belief that no matter how unjust the time gets, patience and a forward-looking approach will make a way out. The test of life therefore can\u2019t make despair ruin the dreams of one&#8217;s heart. The hope stays there, ever powerful, as a relentless spark.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The world doubts this approach, may even assume it foolishness, but the resilience of the Person of Faith is never compromised. Hence, Iqbal calls it as among the <strong>secrets of God<\/strong>; no ordinary human can understand the resilience of such a believer.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Does that mean you can\u2019t get sad?<\/span><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Being sad is not relevant to losing hope.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Instead, it\u2019s a period of time when you take a break from positive thoughts and take-out the burden of your heart. It&#8217;s a situation where you express an enigma of love\u2013 the very suffering you take in the path you are destined for.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Allama Iqbal believed that sadness is a natural part of human existence.. It\u2019s a necessary part of the journey that tests a believer for patience and self-discipline. And in this sadness, one might stray away from one\u2019s will, but the hope stays there, correcting the course of the believer to a brighter way.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This is expressed in the famous poem &#8220;Sitaron se aage jahan aur bhi hain&#8221; [Translation]:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The year that passed, in memory still,<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Has spoiled all the deals of my heart&#8217;s will,<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">But your hope&#8217;s light has been the ray,<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">That brings to life a brighter way<\/span><\/i><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Final Thoughts<\/span><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Iqbal\u2019s ideology of resilience stems from religious teachings. His poetry evokes the memory of great Muslim figures who sketched the personality of a true Mard-e-Momin.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It\u2019s in the life lessons of these great leaders that Iqbal found the secret of resilience. They stood mountain in front of the hope-shattering oppressors and hence became an inspiration for the living who can now use the Secret to accomplish their goals.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dana-e-Raaz, the poet of the East: Allama Iqbal dedicated a special poem for the youth.
