Here is a highly informative yet accessibly-written introduction to
the life and works of the writer and political thinker Muhammad
Iqbal (1877-1938), who as President of the Muslim League played a
vital role in the birth of Pakistan, and is revered today as its
spiritual founder. In discussing Iqbal's thought, and analysing his
poetry and prose at some length, Mir suggests that Iqbal represents
a paragon for modern Muslims, caught as they are between tradition
and modernity. Iqbal's attempt to integrate Islamic and Western
elements in his intellectual, artistic and political lives makes
him a figure that Muslims may respect and emulate, since he
declared his passionate loyalty to the religion of Islam while at
the same time differentiating between the eternal, or essential,
and the historical, or incidental, in the Islamic tradition.
