Abstract

Allama Iqbal, a great philosopher and poet of the East, has not only been an ideological and political leader for the Muslims of the sub-continent in the 20th century. Even today, through his life-instilling revolutionary poetry, he serves as a beacon light for the entire Islamic Ummah in view of their daunting challenges and vulnerability vis-à-vis the West and its pervasive intellectual, political and technological intellectual supremacy. In the subject study, the political and social situation of the Islamic world in the backdrop of their glorious past has been analyzed in the light of Allama Iqbal’s famed Masnavi “Pas Che Bayed Kurd Aiy Aqwam-e-Mashriq” with a focus on its two segments namely “Hikmat-e- Kilami” (Wisdom of Moses) and “Hikmat-e-Fironi” (Wisdom of Pharaoh). Besides critically reviewing Allama’s overall thoughts and ideology, a practical solution has been presented in this article for the Muslims, in general, and the youth ad Islamic leaders of the Ummah, in particular, to come out of their current chaos and crises.
