Man is primarily governed by passion and instinct.
Muhammad Iqbal
Image
The spirit of philosophy is one of free inquiry. It suspects all authority. Its function is to trace the uncritical assumptions of human thought to their hiding places, and in this pursuit it may finally end in denial or a frank admission of the incapacity of pure reason to reach the ultimate reality.
Muhammad Iqbal
Image
Thus passing through the infinite varieties of space we reach the Divine space which is absolutely free from all dimensions and constitutes the meeting point of all infinities.
Muhammad Iqbal
Image
Words, without power, is mere philosophy.
Muhammad Iqbal
Image

Muhammad Iqbal
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Why hast thou made me born in this country, The inhabitant of which is satisfied with being a slave?
Muhammad Iqbal
Image
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
Image
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
Image
The soul is neither inside nor outside the body neither proximate to nor separate from it.
Muhammad Iqbal
Image
It is the lot of man to share in the deeper aspirations of the universe around him and to share his own destiny as well as that of the universe, now by adjusting himself to its forces, now by putting the whole of his energy to his own ends and purposes.
Muhammad Iqbal
Image
Our bread and water are of one table: the progeny of Adam are as a single soul.
Muhammad Iqbal
Image
But inner experience is only one source of human knowledge.
Muhammad Iqbal
