Musaddas is a form of Persian poetry characterized by its unique rhyme scheme and meter, typically consisting of six lines with each couplet having its own distinct theme or idea. The structure of a musaddas generally involves alternating lines of varying lengths and syllabic counts, often creating a rhythmic and lyrical effect. Musaddas has been notably used in Urdu poetry, especially in the works of poets like Allama Iqbal, who utilized this form to convey profound philosophical and social themes.
