Ends and purposes, whether they exist as conscious or subconscious tendencies, form the wrap and woof of our conscious experience.
Muhammad Iqbal
The revealed and mystic literature of mankind bears ample testimony to the fact that religious experience has been too enduring and dominant in the history of mankind to be rejected as mere illusion.

Muhammad Iqbal
Plants and minerals are bound to predestination. The faithful is only bound to the Divine orders.
