About the Book

Why a separate volume on Iqbal’s political thought? There are several reasons to bring Iqbal’s political ideas in a sharper focus. First, while Iqbal’s poetic aesthetics are much celebrated, his political ideas are not sufficiently understood and appreciated. A great deal of confusion surrounds, for instance, Iqbal’s position on such issues as secularism, democracy, Muslim fraternity, and nationalism, to mention only a few. These are also topical themes that hold great practical relevance in our contemporary world. Second, it is imperative to highlight Iqbal’s political ideals if we wish to implement his vision. Given the radical and groundbreaking nature of his work, powerful lobbies in the Muslim world are at work to deny him. His dynamic influence on the contemporary affairs of the Muslims is resented by those whose vested interests are in conflict with his rediscovery of the original spirit of Islam. Third, underscoring Iqbal’s political deliberations is both timely and relevant. The world is overtaken by a sentiment of fear and disillusionment today ~ both in the Muslim and Western worlds. It is important to re-open the lines of communication within the Muslim world and between the Muslim and Western worlds. Reverting to Iqbal’s ideas could provide a good starting point to re-establish such a dialogue. The time has probably come that we look at these ideas afresh.
