Answer:
LAHORE, Aug 5 (APP): Dr. Allama Muhammad Iqbal is a seer whose vision and struggle had provided a direction to the Muslims of India for creating a separate homeland in Indian Sub-Continent despite heavy odds in their walk to freedom.
He embodied all qualities of a philosopher king, revolutionary poet, visionary leader and a political thinker who outwitted the mighty British and the clever Hindus.
Iqbal is regarded in high esteem by the Muslims and the world as a poet, politician, philosopher, barrister, scholar and as the one who inspired the Pakistan Movement.
Iqbal’s Presidential Address at Allahabad in 1930 laid foundation of the ‘Two Nation Theory’ while his thoughts awakened Islamic nationality among the Muslims of India.
Through the philosophy of ‘Tasawwar-e-Ummah'(Idea of one nation), the sense of Muslim Nationhood (a single unity) became a major factor in the creation of Pakistan.
