Bayan-e-Iqbal (The Discourse of Iqbal), compiled by Humaira Jamil

Bayan-e-Iqbal

This scholarly work serves as a comprehensive explanatory guide to the complex philosophical and poetic thought of Allama Muhammad Iqbal, the “Poet of the East.” Subtitled “Fikr-e-Iqbal ka Tauzihi Bayan” (An Explanatory Discourse on Iqbal’s Thought), the book is designed to make Iqbal’s profound concepts accessible to a modern audience.

Humaira Jamil meticulously deconstructs Iqbal’s core themes, such as Khudi (Selfhood), Ishq (Love), and the “Perfect Man” (Mard-e-Momin). The text provides a systematic analysis of his vision for the intellectual and spiritual awakening of the Muslim Ummah. By bridging the gap between Iqbal’s classical Persianized Urdu and contemporary understanding, Jamil offers readers a roadmap to navigating his Persian and Urdu poetry collections. This book is an invaluable resource for students of literature and philosophy seeking to grasp the enduring relevance of Iqbal’s message in the 21st century.
