Muhammad Iqbal

God is not a dead equation!
Muhammad Iqbal
Image
The Westerners have lost the vision of heaven, they go hunting for the pure spirit in the belly. The pure soul takes not color and scent from the body, and Communism has nothing to do save with the body.
Muhammad Iqbal
Image
Why hast thou made me born in this country, The inhabitant of which is satisfied with being a slave?
Muhammad Iqbal

But inner experience is only one source of human knowledge.
Muhammad Iqbal
