maulana, agla sawal lene se pehle ek comment padhna chahenge. yeh maulana yaqoob umri ne dilli se bheja hai. unhon ne likha hai: "maulana! today's lecture was a beautiful explanation of shock treatment to keep humanity on track and it was a new meaning of the ayat 'فَا لَوْلَا دَافُعُوا لِلنَّاسِ'." maulana, agla sawal lenge. yeh sawal bheja hai maulana iqbal umri ne chennai se. unhon ne likha hai ke: "maulana! power struggle ki zehniyat ki asal wajah kya hai? is ke baray mein batayein." kis ki zehniyat? power struggle. woh kya cheez hai? hum to jante nahi ke power struggle kya hai. yeh to jhoote alfaaz hain.
