More Info

This lithograph features the name Allah prominently in large text on the left, signifying divine presence and reverence. Inside the crescent, a powerful couplet by the renowned poet Muhammad Iqbal is inscribed in Urdu:

"Duniya ke but kade mein pehla ye ghar khuda ka,
Hum iske pasbaan hain ye pasbaan humara."

(Translation: "In this worldly abode of idols, this is the first house of God (Mecca); we are its guardians, and this house is our guardian.")

The artwork beautifully integrates religious devotion with poetic expression, emphasizing the sacred significance of the Kaaba.
