Yes, exactly the same Muhammad Iqbal (Allama). He was a domineering thinker in fundamentally independent and important matters, which is why I appreciate him. The word ummah has a very wide meaning but Hakim Sahib is called the sage of ummah because he addressed the ummah which was based on "religion". Just as the rest of the affairs in this country are based on religious hypocrisy and religious lies, in the same way every basic concept of Hakim Sahib has been lied to by the expert confessors, or in other words they have not understood that What does Hakim Sahib want to say? Let us tell you in the words of Hakim Sahib what was the religion of Hakim Sahib, and after that how much space is left in "religion" so that he is not excluded from "religion"!
1. The basis of religion is revelation. Did Hakim Sahib believe in revelation? My claim is that the sages reject the concept of revelation presented in religion and their meaning of revelation is not exactly the same as the meaning of revelation presented in "religion". That is, Gabriel conveying the message of a god, etc. See your words about this.
Life in the world consciously takes care of its own needs and adjusts its direction in difficult times. This is what is called prophetic revelation in the language of religion. ”New Formation of Islamic Thought, Sixth Lecture.
It is clear that the consciousness of correcting the situation exists within the situation. No Jibril Sahib picks up a slip from anywhere and drips on the ground. Life tends to be self-directed and self-directed. Therefore, Hakim Muhammad Iqbal denies the revelation on the basis of which 'religion' was established.
2. The second question which is connected with the first question is, what is prophetic consciousness in Iqbal's view? The prophetic consciousness is not instilled with transcendence, but its roots are rooted in the earth itself. Let us consider the words of Hakim Sahib.
The Prophet can be defined as a kind of mystical consciousness in which the unitary experience leaps beyond its edges and seeks opportunities to reshape and reshape the forces of collective life. The ultimate center of life in his personality sinks into his own infinity to re-emerge and when he re-emerges he becomes fresh and energetic, destroys the old ways of life and discovers new directions. A small minority of human beings develops a psychic energy which I call prophetic consciousness. ”New Formation Fifth Lecture.
It's not too complicated to understand. Prophetic consciousness can be associated with a single individual and even a "small minority" can claim this consciousness. However, its roots are also connected with the inner infinity (Spirit-God) of the individual (finite), but its external aspect is the real world from which it is formed and also expresses this prophetic consciousness. Therefore, keep in mind that according to Iqbal, no god sends the "prophet" but he dives into his inner life to face the needs of external life and his inner life emerges with a deep consciousness. Yes, which in Iqbal's words is called prophetic consciousness. Therefore, the prophet is not sent from anywhere, but is born from the earth.
Keep these two basic ideas in mind. After this, the points which will be presented in Iqbal's own words, apart from calling Iqbal Hakim-ul-Ummah, he will be excluded from the Ummah.
