Allama Iqbal Is Basically A Sufi And Darvaish (Iqbal Shanas Dr. M. Rafi-ud-Din)

علامہ اقبال بنیادی طور پر ایک صوفی اور درویش ہیں، شاعر یا فلسفی نہیں

 Dr. Muhammad Rafi-ud-Din
(1905-1969)

Dr. Muhammad Rafi-ud-Din was a great thinker, philosopher, writer and above all an expert ‘Iqbal Shanas’ of 20th Century. He was one of those blessed ones who were friends of Allama Iqbal and really knew the essence of Iqbal’s poetry. Another name comes in our mind, Prof. Yousuf Saleem Chishti as ‘Iqbal Shanas’.

Dr. Muhammad Rafi-ud-Din’s first book ‘Ideology of the Future’ was a revolutionary book on Human Ideological Evolution & Islamic Philosophy published in 1942. A detailed biography, snaps & book links of Dr. Rafi-ud-Din are added at the end this post but let’s first read an extract from his last book ‘Hikmat-e-Iqbal’ (published in 1969, few months before his death). Hikmat-e-Iqbal is an extremely important book on Allama Iqbal. Highly recommended by blog writer. (See details below)

According to Dr. Rafi-ud-Din
“Allama Iqbal was neither a poet nor a philosopher, He was basically a Sufi and Darvaish (Mystic)”.
This is exactly our point of view that Allama Iqbal was a Qalandar, Faqeer & in fact a WalliAllah (Please wait for another post for further details). Allama Iqbal repeatedly mentioned words Qalandar, Faqeer, Darvaish for himself in his poetry.

    Kufer (Atheism) ka neya Labaas Darwinism hai.

    Communism, Capitalism, Modernism, Postmodernism and Fascism are all based on Darwinism.

    Thank you very much for bringing up such an important thinker like Dr. Rafiuddin.

    In my humble opinion he was among the very best thinkers produced by Pakistan and the East.
