نگاه منتقدانه علامه اقبال به اصناف مختلف جامعه

Abstract

Allama Mohammad Iqbal Lahori, an educated-in-the-west Muslim Philosopher, and Islamist, was deeply saddened by the miserable situation of his nation. His country was occupied by the British Empire under which his people suffered from oppression. On the other hand, he witnessed that Muslim nations do nothing significant for getting their freedom. To fulfill his desire to change the situation and to awaken his people, he criticized different social groups making them realize their weaknesses and deficiencies. He criticized the worthless rulers and kings, the glutton ascetics, the Fatwah-seller Fuqaha, poets who distort the truth, the aimless and emotionless philosophers and politicians and other deviant individuals who have misled humanity with their false thoughts.
