Among the thousands of Naats recited across the globe, "Faslon Ko Takalluf Hai Humse Agar" holds a unique place. While many Naats focus on the grandeur of the Prophet’s (PBUH) arrival, this masterpiece focuses on the heart of the lover who is physically distant from the holy city of Medina but spiritually present at the Green Dome.
Originally written by the esteemed poet Prof. Iqbal Azeem and famously recited by many, including Qari Waheed Zafar Qasmi, this Naat is a masterclass in the poetry of Ishq-e-Rasool (Love for the Prophet).
1. The Poet’s Context: Writing from the Heart
Prof. Iqbal Azeem, the writer of this beautiful Kalaam, was known for his deep emotional intelligence. Interestingly, towards the later part of his life, he suffered from failing eyesight. Many scholars believe that the intensity of "Faslon Ko Takalluf" comes from this personal trial. When he writes about "seeing" Medina with the eyes of the heart, it isn't just a metaphor—it was his reality. This adds a layer of authenticity and pathos that few other poems can match.
2. Spiritual Reflection: The Philosophy of "Fasla" (Distance)
The opening line itself is a philosophical challenge to the physical world:
"Faslon ko takalluf hai humse agar, hum bhi bebas nahin besahara nahin" (If the distances feel hesitant to close between us, I am neither helpless nor without support.)
In Islamic spirituality, the "distance" between the believer and Medina is only physical. This Naat teaches the listener that through the power of Durood and Salam, the soul can travel where the body cannot. It challenges the idea that one needs a plane ticket or a passport to feel the presence of the Prophet (PBUH).
3. Full Lyrics: Faslon Ko Takalluf
The Opening Verse:
Faslon ko takalluf hai humse agar Hum bhi bebas nahin besahara nahin Khud-ba-khud raah-e-taiba nikal aayegi Kaun kehta hai basti woh doora nahin (If the distances are stubborn with us, We are not helpless or without a refuge. The path to Taiba (Medina) will reveal itself, Who says that city is far away?)
The Core Reflection:
Dil ki basti mein aa kar thahar jayiye Mere aqa yahan koi doora nahin Meri aankhon mein jalwe simat aayenge Mera dil unka maskan hai, sehra nahin (Come and reside in the city of my heart, My Master, here nothing is far away. The divine sights will gather in my eyes, My heart is His home, not a desert.)
The Conclusion of Hope:
Iqbal-e-hazeen kyun pareshan hai Unka dar hai kahan aur tu hai kahan Sar jhukaya toh dar unka mil jayega Sirf dil se pukarne ki deri hai (O sorrowful Iqbal, why are you worried? Where is His door, and where are you? Just bow your head, and you will find His door, It only takes a sincere call from the heart.)
4. Key Themes and Analysis
A. The Concept of "Bebas" (Helplessness)
In the modern world, we often feel "bebas" because of financial or political constraints that prevent us from performing Hajj or Umrah. This Naat acts as a spiritual balm. It reassures the believer that sincerity (Niyyah) is the true vehicle to Medina.
B. The Heart as a "Maskan" (Abode)
The poet describes the heart not as a "Sehra" (desert/empty space) but as a "Maskan" (a dwelling place). This is a profound theological point: the Prophet’s (PBUH) teachings and love should live inside the believer. If the heart is full of his love, then Medina is not a thousand miles away—it is within.
C. The Power of Imagination (Tasawwur)
The Naat encourages Tasawwur-e-Madina (the visualization of Medina). For centuries, Sufi saints have used this practice to maintain their spiritual connection. By reciting these words, the listener is guided through a meditation, mentally walking through the streets of the Hijaz.
