To everyone 
In case you don't know who he is, he's the great poet of East and he is the man who had the vision of the Islamic Republic Of Pakistan.
I remember when I was in Pakistan, we used to have to go to school to listen to speeches given by others on this day, praising Iqbal. It was a boring day for us back then but now when I look back at that day, I think we should've enjoyed the day.
A couple of his great poems are (that I read in bachpan) Shikwa and Jawab-e-Shikwa.
What can YOU tell about Iqbal (without googling)? How did you guys celebrate this day in Pakistan?
...I know that which you do not know. (Quran - 1:30)...... Which then of the bounties of your Lord will you deny?...(Quran - 55:13)...
Shikra was here.

He was a pahelwaan 
Nayee nasal ke ye andey hain Gandey
Utha kar phaink do bahar gali main
Allama Iqbal Urf Baala Pehelwaan
Ik fursat-e-gunah mili wo bhi chaar din
dekhey hian hum ney hosley, parwardigar ke !
