Kisi ne Allama Iqbal se poocha: Aqal ki inteha kiya hey?
Allama Iqbal replied: Heyrat.
Phir poocha: Heyrat ki inteha kiya hey?
Allama replied: Ishq.
Phir poocha: Ishq ki inteha kiya hey?
Allama replied: Ishq La-Inteha hey.
Phir poocha: Magar aap ne likha hey “Teray ishq ki inteha chahta hoon”.
Allama replied: Tou doosray misray mein apni ghalti ka aiteraf kiya hey “Meri saadgi dekh kiya chahta hoon”.
