[Sir Muhammad Iqbal (KBE)Ā (/ĖˆÉŖkbɑĖl/;Ā Urdu:Ā Ł…Ų­Ł…ŲÆ Ų§ŁŁ‚ŲØŲ§Ł„ā€Ž; 9 November 1877 ā€“ 21 April 1938), widely known asĀ Allama Iqbal, was a Kashmiri poet, philosopher and politician, as well as an academic,Ā barristerĀ and scholar[1][2]Ā inĀ British IndiaĀ who is widely regarded as having inspired theĀ Pakistan Movement. He is called the “Spiritual Father ofĀ Pakistan.”[3]Ā He is considered one of the most important figures inĀ Urdu literature,[4]Ā with literary work in bothĀ UrduĀ andĀ Persian.[2][4]

Iqbal is admired as a prominent poet byĀ Pakistanis,Ā Iranians, as well as international scholars of literature.[5][6][7]Ā Though Iqbal is best known as an eminent poet, he is also a highly acclaimed “Muslim philosophical thinker of modern times”.[2][7]Ā His first poetry book,Ā The Secrets of the Self, appeared in the Persian language in 1915, and other books of poetry includeĀ The Secrets of Selflessness,Ā Message from the EastĀ andĀ Persian Psalms. Amongst these, his best known Urdu works areĀ The Call of the Marching Bell,Ā Gabriel’s Wing,Ā The Rod of MosesĀ and a part ofĀ Gift from Hijaz.[8]Ā Along with his Urdu and Persian poetry, his Urdu and English lectures and letters have been very influential in cultural, social, religious and political discourses.[8]

In 1922 New Years Honours, he was made aĀ Knight BachelorĀ byĀ King George V,[9][10]Ā While studying law and philosophy in England, Iqbal became a member of the London branch of theĀ All-India Muslim League.[7][8]Ā Later, during the League’s December 1930 session, he delivered his most famous presidential speech known as theĀ Allahabad AddressĀ in which he pushed for the creation of a Muslim state in north-west India.[7][8]

In much of South Asia and the Urdu-speaking world, Iqbal is regarded as theĀ Shair-e-MashriqĀ (Urdu:Ā Ų“Ų§Ų¹Ų± Ł…Ų“Ų±Ł‚ā€Ž, “Poet of the East”).[11][12][13]Ā He is also calledĀ Mufakkir-e-PakistanĀ (Urdu:Ā Ł…ŁŚ©Ų± Ł¾Ų§Ś©Ų³ŲŖŲ§Ł†ā€Ž, “The Thinker of Pakistan”),Ā Musawwar-e-PakistanĀ (Urdu:Ā Ł…ŲµŁˆŲ± Ł¾Ų§Ś©Ų³ŲŖŲ§Ł†ā€Ž, “Artist of Pakistan”) andĀ Hakeem-ul-UmmatĀ (Urdu:Ā Ų­Ś©ŪŒŁ… Ų§Ł„Ų§Ł…ŲŖā€Ž, “The Sage of theĀ Ummah“). The Pakistan government officially named him “National PoetĀ of Pakistan”.[7]Ā His birthdayĀ Yōm-e Welādat-e Muįø„ammad IqbālĀ (Urdu:Ā ŪŒŁˆŁ… ŁˆŁ„Ų§ŲÆŲŖ Ł…Ų­Ł…ŲÆ Ų§Ł‚ŲØŲ§Ł„ā€Ž), orĀ Iqbal Day, is aĀ public holiday in Pakistan.[14]

Iqbal’s house is still located inĀ SialkotĀ and is recognized asĀ Iqbal’s ManzilĀ and is open for visitors. His other house where he lived most of his life and died is in Lahore, named asĀ Javed Manzil. The museum is located on Allama Iqbal Road near Lahore Railway Station, Punjab, Pakistan.[15] It was protected under the Punjab Antiquities Act of 1975 and declared a Pakistani national monument in 1977.[15][betterĀ sourceĀ needed] ]
