History of Iqbal
Sir Muhammad Iqbal, also known as Allama Iqbal was a philosopher, poet and politician in
British India who was born on 9 November 1877 and died on 21th April 1938. He is considered
one of the most important figures in Urdu literature, with literary work in both Urdu and Persian
languages.he was also called as Muslim philosophical thinker of modern times. Iqbal is known as
Shair-e-Mushriq meaning Poet of the East. He is also called Muffakir-e-Pakistan (“The Inceptor
of Pakistan”) and Hakeem-ul-Ummat (“The Sage of the Ummah”). In Iran and Afghanistan he is
famous as Iqbāl-e Lāhorī or Iqbal of Lahore, and he is most appreciated for his Persian work.
Pakistan Government had recognised him as its “national poet.He has different literary and
narrative works. His first poetry book, Asrar-e-Khudi, appeared in the Persian language in 1915,
Amongst these his best known Urdu works are Bang-i-Dara, Bal-i-Jibril, Zarb-i Kalim and a part
of Armughan-e-Hijaz and also Pas che bayad kard.he had series of lectures in different
educational institutions that were later on published by Oxford press as ‘’the Reconstruction of
Islamic religious thoughts in Islam’’. Iqbal was influenced by the teachings of Sir Thomas
Arnold, his philosophy teacher at Government college Lahore, Arnold’s teachings determined
Iqbal to pursue higher education in West. In 1905, he traveled to England for his higher
education. Iqbal qualified for a scholarship from Trinity College in Cambridge and obtained
Bachelor of Arts in 1906, and in the same year he was called to the bar as a barrister from
Lincoln’s Inn. In 1907, Iqbal moved to Germany to study doctorate and earned PhD degree from
the Ludwig Maximilian University, Munich in 1908. Working under the guidance of Friedrich
Hommel, Iqbal published his doctoral thesis in 1908 entitled: The Development of Metaphysics
in Persia. During his study in Europe, Iqbal began to write poetry in Persian. He prioritized it
because he believed he had found an easy way to express his thoughts. He would write
continuously in Persian throughout his life. Iqbal, after completing his Master of Arts degree in
1899, initiated his career as a reader of Arabic at Oriental College and shortly was selected as a
junior professor of philosophy at Government College Lahore, where he had also been a student;
Iqbal worked there until he left for England in 1905. In 1908, Iqbal returned from England and
joined again the same college as a professor of philosophy and English literature. At the same
period Iqbal began practicing law at Chief Court Lahore, but soon Iqbal quit law practice, and
In 1919, he became the general secretary of the same organisation. Iqbal’s thoughts in his work
primarily focus on the spiritual direction and development of human society, centered on
experiences from his travels and stays in Western Europe and the Middle East. He was
profoundly influenced by Western philosophers such as Friedrich Nietzsche, Henri Bergson and
Goethe.
The poetry and philosophy of Mawlana Rumi bore the deepest influence on Iqbal’s mind. Deeply
grounded in religion since childhood, Iqbal began intensely concentrating on the study of Islam,
the culture and history of Islamic civilization and its political future, while embracing Rumi as
his guide.
Iqbal had a great role in Muslim political movement. Iqbal had remained active in the Muslim
League. He did not support Indian involvement in World War I, as well as the Khilafat
movement and remained in close touch with Muslim political leaders such as Maulana
Mohammad Ali and Muhammad Ali Jinnah. He was a critic of the mainstream Indian National
Congress, which he regarded as dominated by Hindus and was disappointed with the League
when during the 1920s, it was absorbed in factional divides between the pro-British group led by
Ideologically separated from Congress Muslim leaders, Iqbal had also been disillusioned with
the politicians of the Muslim League owing to the factional conflict that plagued the League in
the 1920s. Discontent with factional leaders like Sir Muhammad Shafi and Sir Fazl-ur-Rahman,
Iqbal came to believe that only Muhammad Ali Jinnah was a political leader capable of
preserving this unity and fulfilling the League’s objectives on Muslim political empowerment.
Building a strong, personal correspondence with Jinnah, Iqbal was an influential force in
convincing Jinnah to end his self-imposed exile in London, return to India and take charge of the
League. Iqbal firmly believed that Jinnah was the only leader capable of drawing Indian Muslims
to the League and maintaining party unity before the British and the Congress:
In his presidential address on December 29, 1930, Iqbal outlined a vision of an independent state
for Muslim-majority provinces in northwestern India, “I would like to see the Punjab, North-
West Frontier Province, Sind and Baluchistan amalgamated into a single state. Self-government
within the British Empire, or without the British Empire, the formation of a consolidated
Iqbal was the first patron of the historical, political, religious, cultural journal of Muslims of
British India. This journal played an important part in the Pakistan movement. The name of this
Reconstruction of Religious Thought in Islam and many letters in English language, besides his
Urdu and Persian literary works. In which, he revealed his thoughts regarding Persian ideology
and Islamic Sufism – in particular, his beliefs that Islamic Sufism activates the searching soul to
a superior perception of life. He also discussed philosophy, God and the meaning of prayer,
human spirit and Muslim culture, as well as other political, social and religious problems.
Iqbal’s views on the Western world were applauded by men including United States Supreme
Court Associate Justice William O. Douglas, who said that Iqbal’s beliefs had “universal
appeal”.In his Soviet biography N. P. Anikoy wrote, “(Iqbal is) great for his passionate
condemnation of weak will and passiveness, his angry protest against inequality, discrimination
and oppression in all forms i.e., economic, social, political, national, racial, religious, etc., his
preaching of optimism, an active attitude towards life and man’s high purpose in the world, in a
word, he is great for his assertion of the noble ideals and principles of humanism, democracy,
Iqbal died on 21th April 1938 due to severe throat infection that lasted for long till his death. He
will be remembered for good. Aasmaan teri lahad per shabnam afshaani kare Sabza e noorasta is
Concept of Reality
Iqbal’s faith in the existence of God is based on the testimony of Quran, the mystic
literature of Islam and other religions. The latest discoveries of modern science in the domain of
physics and biology have also strengthened this faith. We should carefully examine and interpret
experience, he says, “following the clue furnished by Quran which regards experience within and
without and symbolic or reality describes by it, as the first and last visible and invisible”, God is
prior to all existing things: even when all the things will perish the one reality, that is, He, will
remain. He is thus the first and the last. God is even invisible as we cannot see him by our eyes
and cannot form an adequate conception of him. He is visible in so far as we mark His prints in
the visible aspects of nature and see Him by the eye of our heart.
The approach of Quran to this important topic is both intellectual and emotional. “The
Quran sees signs of the ultimate reality in the Sun” and the “Moon”, “the lengthening out of
shadows”, “the alternation of the day and night”, the variety of human colors and tongues, the
alternative of the days of success and reverse among peoples, in the whole of nature as revealed
to the sense perception of man. And the Muslim’s duty is to reflect on these signs and not to pass
by them as if he is deaf and blind, for he who does not see these signs in this life will remain
blind to the realities of the life to come. According to Quran these are signs of existence of God
for the people who try to understand it. “He is one who causes life and who causes death and to
him belong the alternation of day and night. Why do you not understand them” asks the Quran.
He gives His hearing and sight and mind. It is He who makes the night and the day and
the sun and the moon which float on their respective orbits. Who causes the growth of the green
fields, palm trees, grapes and all kinds of fruits? In all this there in a proof (of existence of
reality) for the people who understand it. There are also proofs for the man who thinks over the
law of the night and the day, the sun and the moon. Similarly, there are proofs to realize the truth
in all that has been spread on this earth for the various species. But strongly enough, man is yet
The Quran over and again emphasizes God’s knowledge in verses like; and with Him are
the keys of the invisible. None but the knoweth them. And he knoweth what is in the land and
the sea. Not a leaf falleth but he knoweth it, not a grain aimed the darkness of earth, naught of
wet or dry………Again, while talking of God’s omniscience, the Quran uses two words. Alimun
(knowledge in general) and Kabirum (Knowledge of the unknown), which indicates and
Iqbal himself admits this when he says that the universe is a moment in the life of God,
and again that the nature is to God what character is to the human self. Insofar a God is all
inclusive, and there is nothing alien to Him, His creation is free despite His knowledge. Hence
fact that God possesses knowledge of events before they occur does not do away with His
creation and its originality so long as He creates from within his nature. God’s perfection lies in
the fact that He has got such as complete and precise knowledge of the conditions obtaining in
the universe that He has been proclaimed in the Quran as all knowing, all perfect and absolute.
Thus God’s Knowledge is not incompatible with his creativity and originality, as it was
erroneously thought by Iqbal God has the knowledge of particular events before they occur, and
His omniscience is based on His complete conversance with the overall universal conditions: it is
calculation or estimation which enables God to foretell future events. In this sense, human and
Iqbal posits three sources of human knowledge: nature, history, and inner experience.
The human mind is endowed with the ability to conceptualize all that it observes. And,
contrary to what many philosophers have asserted, Iqbal finds this conceptualization to be in
congruence with the reality outside the self. Therefore, the environment of the self—i.e.
nature—is a legitimate source of knowledge. But by ‘nature’ Iqbal does not simply mean the
natural world; rather, he means all reality outside the self. Thus, by making ‘nature’ a
legitimate source of action, Iqbal is not merely affirming the worth of the scientific
institutions, mores, religion, etc., as relevant sources of knowledge for the individual ego.
However, he singles out History as a separate source of knowledge. This is so because even
though historical knowledge is also contained within the world outside the self, its content
is different.
While residing in the world now, History conveys to the individual a sense of all that
has gone before, thus providing a sense of continuity with the past. However, these two
modes of acquiring knowledge—Nature and History—are both contained outside the self;
the flow of information, therefore, is from outside the self towards the self. And this flow
anathema for Iqbal’s concept of the personality. It is the third source of knowledge, then,
which is crucial to Iqbal: inner experience. Iqbal call this inner experience ‘intuition,’ and
experience have a definite cognitive content; it is a ‘higher form’ because while normal
plays multifarious roles—in ascertaining the spiritual nature of all reality, especially of the
human self; for corroborating the validity of the knowledge derived from History and
Nature; and, most importantly, for providing an independent content of knowledge for the
individual, as well synthesizing the knowledge derived from the other sources into a unique
product. This, then, is for Iqbal, the creative process that preserves the individuality of the
self, and rather than making it a passive recipient of knowledge, makes it the active creator
of unique knowledge. The individual ego thus acquires knowledge through Nature, History,
and inner experience. The relationship between knowledge and the human personality can
now be elaborated.
A principle for Iqbal is moral only if it is freely chosen. Further, this choice is exercised
when the individual is in possession of complete knowledge about the facts. Conventional values
have no place in the thought of Iqbal. Operative principles if accepted blindly or on authority
lead to degeneration of the self and thus negate a material condition which Iqbal considers
essential to the meaning of morality. For, a moral principle has not only certain formal features
but has also a material condition as intrinsic to its very definition. Iqbal regards integration of
Moral reasoning is present if the ego-integration principle is appealed to. A choice is moral
principle which is legislated not from the consideration of the circumstances of a particular com-
munity or people but from a plane of existence which is above spatial and temporal
The social environment to which an individual belongs is made of customs and traditions,
do's and don’ts, which were existentially' experienced in the remote past by authentic
individuals. Adherence to these for the persons who conceived them was essential to the
meaning of morality. With the change of circumstances and conditions which are consequent
upon knowledge and experience, convention values lose their true import. They cannot be,
therefore, considered, from the point of later generations, as essential to morality. In order to
have a moral point of view one has to rise above the level of conventional values, to a plane of
existence which is not tinged with local hue derived from the ethos of a people. The moral law is
thus essentially enacted by a man of Vision. The moral legislator has to tear himself from the
fetters of his culture and to seek contact with the roots of his own being. Such a kind of contact
Iqbal describes as “Travel into Yourself.” The individual can have the moral point of view even
if he remains at the level of customary morality (the stage of obedience to Law), the same point
of view is available at the level of reflective morality (the stage of self-overcoming). One can
also ascend to the level of creative morality (the stage of Vice regency) and, for Iqbal, a principle
to be truly moral has to be enacted from this third and the highest level. When an individual
legislates from the level of creative morality his choice is not arbitrary as is the case with some
brief is a statement of Iqbal's conception of morality. He has emphasized both formal and
principle or norm for Iqbal is moral only if it is freely chosen and is not accepted on authority. In
fact conventional values are rejected by Iqbal. Imitation, uncritical acceptance of norms or values
leads to degeneration of the self which would in turn negate the material condition or content

Education aims are primarily a phase of values. They are conscious or unconscious value
aims take their root from philosophy. Iqbal’s philosophy is the philosophy of the self. He prizes
and stresses self or individuality. Hence in Iqbal’s view the highest or ultimate aim of all
educational effort as well as other social efforts is to develop strengthen the individuality of all
persons. In other words, the ultimate aim of the man is his life as well as in education is the
actualization and realization of the open, infinite possibilities within, without and before him.
The highest ideal is a continued life with the highest quality of knowledge, power, perfection,
goodness, vision, and creativity. But the ideal at this level is not a fixed one. As one acquires
more of the qualities of the ideal, it shifts its place to a still higher level. It does not mean only
the development of the inherent possibilities of man, but in a great measure the individual’s
power to absorb into himself, for the reconstruction of his experience, power, personality, and
the enrichment of his life, the influence of the universe external to him. Sense, reason, intellect,
and intelligence are the evolved instruments for this purpose. Hence according to Iqbal, the
cultivation of any of the faculties like reason, intellect, and intelligence is not the aim of
education; rather they are the means of the ideal of continuation and enrichment of life.
According to Iqbal, the statement the ultimate aim and the description of its various
aspects into objectives education as continuous life of good health, perfection, power,
knowledge, goodness, vision, creative and original activity, and other values of his philosophical
system for the development of individuality would not be enough. He recognizes the need for
more proximate, immediate and specific objectives which when realized become resource to
achieve the ultimate aim with more vigor and enthusiasm. He encourages freedom of thought
and originality for the achievement of something unique (Iqbal, Payam-i-Mashraq, 1954). The
actualization of specific objectives becomes a means and refers to immediate while the ultimate
aim. The value of ultimate aim as the development of individuality is supreme because, through
suggestion and direction, it controls the selection of more proximate aims, and their execution.
The development of individuality can be accelerated by the formulation of new creative purposes
and objectives which always determine the direction of man’s activity and evolution. Hence by
means of motive force of unceasing and creative desires and ideals the individual builds his
selfhood, culture, and institutions. Education would defeat its purpose of the development of
free, creative and unique personalities if the educational system discourages the formation of
These objectives according to Iqbal grow out of dynamic, forward - moving activity of
the individual in relation to his environment, culture heritage, ongoing experience and projected
ideals. The objectives depend also upon the nature of the pupil, social institutions, contemporary
life with due regard to the activities of children and adults for the development of their
personalities and character and preparation for vocation. They emerge from the present
experience and man’s problems of meeting the constant need of dynamic environment ; his
desire to achieve ideals by changing the environment to his needs with the help and direction of
his will, intelligence , and valuable surviving traditions and principles of the past .
Our duty is to watch the progress of human thought, and maintain an independent critical attitude
Education is not merely to achieve happiness in the hereafter in the introduction of the
soul with Allah. The ultimate goal of education should be to strengthen and reinforce the
individuality of all private, so they can be aware of all the possibilities that could have happened
to them. To achieve this goal of education should be focused on the overall development of
human potential that covers the intellectual, physical and willingness to move forward.
In relation to this, Muhammad Iqbal explained some thoughts on creative wills. Life is a
creative wills by Muhammad Iqbal called Soz. That itself is always moving toward unity.
Creative activity, struggle endlessly and active participation in the world’s problems should be
the goal of life. The purpose of education should be able to solve new problem in condition of
Curriculum/Content
The contents of the educational curriculum according to Muhammad Iqbal are included
religion, history, science and technology. Muhammad Iqbal states that religion is greatly
important in the lives of individuals as well as society. If knowledge in this sense is not placed
under religion, it will become a force of shaitan. Therefore, the book is a tool in the delivery of
Consequently, religion and science must be entrenched in harmony, because religion and
science are able to prepare modern humans to achieve a great responsibility in the coming era.
According to Muhammad Iqbal content contains the subjects: Religion, Philosophical subjects,
Art and literature, Social subjects, History, Science and technology. Muhammad Iqbal argued
that religion is a force of great importance in the lives of individual communities. If the
knowledge in this sense is not placed under the religion, he would come into force Satan.
Understanding in this sense is seen to function as a first step in order to obtain actual knowledge.
According to Iqbal:
a. Understanding of Devine Reality: According to Iqbal first and foremost educational
aim should be the understanding of Devine reality (The concept of Toheed (Oneness of
Muhammad PBUH).
b. Search of Reality: Educational aims are conscious and unconscious value judgments and
search of reality.
c. Development of Ego: Highest and ultimate aim of all educational efforts should be

e. Enrichment of Life: Cultivation of faculties like reason, intellect and intelligence is not

life.

faculties of human mind and create a balance between aesthetic and inspirational values.

between mental faculty of the individual and his deeds to achieve the peace of mind and
soul.
n. Element of Yearning: Education should create the element of yearning in the heart of
individual.

Methodology of Instruction
Educational method based on the age level of the students based on consideration of the
period of development of the students, Prophet (PBUH) suggests a good way to educate. Prophet
(PBUH) stated that educate your children by playing around the age of seven first and plant their
discipline in the next seven years and then invite them to discuss the time they reach the age of
seven-year period of the third and subsequent release before they can take a stand for life on
their own.
The appropriate educational method by Muhammad Iqbal is: Self activity, learning by
a. Self-activity, it is an open method that freed learners to develop their activities. This method is
b. Learning by doing, this is the type of teaching that exposes students’ awareness to new
situation and enables learners to learn something new from the sources available in their
environment. Experimental method is needed to develop science, while knowledge is not only to
critical person that is constantly to question matters and not just to accept the true based on
someone‘s view.
d. Project method or unit, it is a way of presenting lessons that start from meaningful
things. The use of this method taken based on the assumption that problem solving carried out
should be related to the subjects that discussed the same issues. Teaching methods is like project
method that focused on target that is more possibly to develop intellectual attitude appropriately
Muhammad Iqbal did not agree on the education of the class system where learners just spend
their time in class. Learners need to link with nature in every learning process that in order to
Concept of Leadership
Subcontinent described leadership in one of his poems. He named the poem ‘Mard-e-Musalman’
and it is part of his work from Zarb-e-Kaleem which was written in 1936.
I will be sharing the stanzas of the poem and for ease of understanding will simply mention the
Har Lehza-e-Momim Nae Shaan, Naee Aaan; Guftar Me, Kirdar Me Allah Ki Burhan
Interpretation: Man should have strong character. His talk and deeds should be in accordance
Ghaffare-o- Qudoose-o- Jabroot; Yeh Chaar Anasir Hoon to Banta Hay Musalman
Interpretation: Man must be powerful/bold enough to stand for right and at the same time humble
Interpretation: The one who achieves greatness, yet remains very humble. The one who never
Leadership traits: Perfect combination of humility and greatness Yeh Raaz Kisse Ko Nahe
Maloom Ke Momin; Qaari Nazar Aata Hay, Haqeqat Me Hay Quran
Interpretation: Some may like him, some may not, but he lives his life as per God’s orders
Leadership trait: Man of principles Qudrat Ke Maqasid Ka Ayyar Iske Irade; Duniya Me Bhee
Jis Se Jigar-e-Lala Me Thandak Hoo Woh Shabnum; Daryaon Ke Dil Jis Se Dehal Jaein Woh
Tufaan
Interpretation: Man must know the art of being both firm and flexible, as per circumstances
PS: Most of Iqbal’s work was aimed at enlightening/awakening the Muslims of Subcontinent of
that era, and therefore it’s common the find words like ‘Musalman’ (meaning Muslim), Quran
(The Holy Quran), and Allah (God) in his poetry. However, the message is universal, and I
believe that good things are worth sharing with everyone, regardless of their origin.
Educators in exploring and developing the concept of education will have to review and
examine the nature of individuality and the environment. Muhammad Iqbal found individuality
growth is not possible without direct contact with the concrete and dynamic environment. Iqbal
says that it is essential that the teacher should awaken in his students a keen consciousness of
their manifold relations with the environment and thus stimulate the formation of new and
creative purposes.
The attitude of good educators by Muhammad Iqbal is the true way to raise awareness
regarding their students with a variety of relationships with the environment and thus stimulating
the formation of new goals creatively. Muhammad Iqbal lack of education approved the class
system, that the students of teachers who locked between the four walls of the class. This is
because the children need to be in touch with nature in any learning process, which is to cultivate
Women Education
Iqbal does not criticize female education but in this respect he follows the famous
proverb that “the hands that rocks the cradle, rule the world.” This shows that how much
importance is the guidance and training of the child by the mother. About his own mother Iqbal,
in Bang-e-Dara, says that only due to her guidance he had achieved the honored and respected
Iqbal wished that the parents should spend their lives according to the teachings of Quran
and sayings of Prophet (PBUH), so that they can set an example of ideal life before children and
of good habits and high moral values. Woman, according to Iqbal, will be a knower of the
realities of life and she is symbol of nobility. She is also aware of the prevalent trends in the
society. The main characteristics of her life are her nobility, softness and a lover of truthfulness.
In another place Iqbal has given her the importance place which can cause unity of the whole
world that is why he delegates the responsibility of her protection to the whole nation. Iqbal
asserts that if she is not given due status and if not protected from the ups and downs of life she
given them such a high position then why we should not give them due respect and deprive them
of education. To educate them is a compulsion on the nation and is the responsibility of the
government. He says in Zarb-i-Kalim; the whole universe is colorful due to her presence,
Iqbal is of the view that there are three qualities which should be cultivated by education.
Evaluation of Education
In the light of Iqbal’s philosophy, following points are important for students’ overall evaluation:
• The evaluation system should take care of both transmission part (instruction) and
• Evaluation should focus more on examining the reflective and creative abilities.
• Depending upon the levels of education, students’ evaluation should also be based on practical
• Both formative and summative parts should be kept in view while evaluating students’
progress. Since teacher is involved in the process of formative evaluation; especially in tasks of
inculcating permanent values and maintaining subject excellence, he is the best judge for the
