Iqbal, Muhammad (b. 9 Nov. 1876, d. 21 Apr. 1938). Indian political philosopher Born in Sialkot, he was educated at Cambridge and Munich, and was admitted to the Bar in 1908. He returned to India to practise law and was appointed a professor of philosophy. He became a leading poet in Urdu and Persian, and was an important force in the assumption of Muslim self-confidence, e.g. through his lectures collected in
The Reconstruction of Religious Thought in Islam (1930). In his influential address to the
Muslim League at its conference in Allahabad, he advanced the idea of a separate Muslim homeland in north-west India, which was eventually realized after his death in the state of Pakistan. He attended the
Round Table Conferences of 1931 and 1932, and remained active in the Muslim League.
