Maryam, OMG never heard his name! He is one amazing philosopher, scholar and poet. I will post something on him soon iA.

sillybachi, It depends on how one defines Pakistani. I mean he died before the creation of Pakistan. Regarding recommendations I ‘d say get ALL of them.:p However to narrow it down start with Bang-i-dara, Bal-i-Jibreel, Armagan-i-hijaz and don’t forget Annemarie Schimmel’s Gabriel’s Wing.

He has a poem in farsi, that how Eastern people leave their culture of morality and blindly follow the west..
