Assalamu Alaikum!
 
Every year on November 9th, Pakistanis celebrate the birth of the poet-philosopher, Dr. Mohammad Iqbal, who played a vital role in the birth of Pakistan.
 
This week YesPakistan team brings you a collection of articles on his life, as well as links to some of his classical works. You may find these articles on http://www.yespakistan.com/iqbal Let's reflect on the message and vision of Iqbal this week. We are providing you the entire text of his most important work, The Reconstruction of Religious Thought in Islam.

As you read and reflect, we request all our visitors to start contributing their ideas to the "Idea Bank Forum" of Yes Pakistan, as the dynamism of our nation depends on our creative ideas!

One of objectives of YesPakistan.com is to highlight and appreciate the contributions of various individuals and organizations to the Pakistani community. This week we would request you to visit www.storyofpakistan.com, which is probably the most comprehensive online reference on the History of Pakistan! Very illustrative, interesting, and educational.

And in this intolerant times we thought we share an article outlining the practical ways to raise a tolerant family.

Thanks.
The YesPakistan team
