*[A5] Hardback with Dustjacket - 211 pages,
by Allama Muhammad Iqbal,
**Published by Kitab Bhavan, India.
Description :
One
of the great thinkers of this century, in this ground-breaking work,
attempts to show a path back to the scientific and intellectual striving
that Muslims once excelled in.
Refuting the current methods
of teaching as being from a generation of a cultural outlook different
than that facing the modern mind, Iqbal calls for a reconstruction of Shari'at,
pointing to the fact that from the first to fourth century no less than
nineteen schools of law appeared in Islam to meet the necessities of a
growing civilization.
Allama Muhammad Iqbal (1877 - 1938) was a Muslim Poet, philosopher and politician born in Sialkot, British India (now Pakistan), whose poetry in Urdu
and Persian is considered to be among the greatest of the modern era.
and whose vision of an independent state for the Muslims of British
India was to inspire the creation of Pakistan.
