Al Andalus :: Kamal Hassan

Written by Prof. Kamal Hassan (Ex-Rector of IIUM)

O Iqbal!

The spring of 2002 beckoned my soul and body:

to witness the Muslim remains of Alhambra,

Cordoba and Sevilla,

To retrace your noble steps and feel the

vibrations of your ecstasy,

to feast my aging vision on the haunting 
grandeur of Alhambra and

relish the matchless beauty of

the Moorish art…
