Religion And Profession ( Iqbal's Deen o Huner )

                                          Religion And Profession

                    Music and arts and politics, Quraan and religion and skill,
                    The knots of these contain all the precious pearls,

                   Conscience of the man of dust causes their manifestation,
                   Their abode is beyond the world of constellation,

                    If they conform to the norms of taqwah, they are boon, *
                    If they don’t, then they are either sorcery or fiction,

                   Nations have suffered humiliation under the sky,
                   When literature and religion are unrelated to piety.
                         * taqwah means piety,
