More quotes by Muhammad Iqbal
Destiny is the prison and chain of the ignorant. Understand that destiny like the water of the Nile: Water before the faithful, blood before the unbeliever.
Muhammad Iqbal
Vision without power does bring moral elevation but cannot give a lasting culture.
Muhammad Iqbal
The soul is neither inside nor outside the body neither proximate to nor separate from it.
Muhammad Iqbal
I have seen the movement of the sinews of the sky, And the blood coursing in the veins of the moon.
Muhammad Iqbal
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 North-West Indian Muslim State appears to me to be the final destiny of the Muslims, at least of North-West India.
Muhammad Iqbal
Be aware of your own worth, use all of your power to achieve it. Create an ocean from a dewdrop. Do not beg for light from the moon, obtain it from the spark within you.
Muhammad Iqbal
I am a hidden meaning made to defy. The grasp of words, and walk away With free will and destiny. As living, revolutionary clay.
Muhammad Iqbal
It is the mysterious touch of the ideal that animates and sustains the real, and through it alone we can discover and affirm the ideal.
Muhammad Iqbal
Yet higher religion, which is only a search for a larger life, is essentially experience and recognized the necessity of experience as its foundation long before science learnt to do so.
Muhammad Iqbal
Indeed, in view of its function, religion stands in greater need of a rational foundation of its ultimate principles than even the dogmas of science.
Muhammad Iqbal
I, therefore, demand the formation of a consolidated Muslim State in the best interest of India and Islam.
Muhammad Iqbal
But the perception of life as an organic unity is a slow achievement, and depends for its growth on a people's entry into the main current of world-events.
Muhammad Iqbal
Islam is itself destiny and will not suffer destiny.
Muhammad Iqbal
We have strayed away from God, and He is in quest of us Like us, He is humble and is a prisoner of desire: He is hidden in every atom, and yet is a stranger to us: He is revealed in the moonlight, and in the embrace of houses.
Muhammad Iqbal
In the first period religious life appears as a form of discipline which the individual or a whole people must accept as an unconditional command without any rational understanding of the ultimate meaning and purpose of that command.
Muhammad Iqbal
But the universe, as a collection of finite things, presents itself as a kind of island situated in a pure vacuity to which time, regarded as a series of mutually exclusive moments, is nothing and does nothing.
Muhammad Iqbal
The scientific observer of Nature is a kind of mystic seeker in the act of prayer.
Muhammad Iqbal
The standpoint of the man who relies on religious experience for capturing Reality must always remain individual and incommunicable.
Muhammad Iqbal
The ultimate aim of the ego is not to see something, but to be something.
Muhammad Iqbal
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
