اقبال اور تصوف- چند تنقیحات

Abstract

Tasawuf has been an area of interest for Allama Muhammad Iqbal. He appreciated the objectives and methodology of Tasawuf and also criticized many of its aspects. If Iqbal's concept of Khudi is explained with its intellectual and historical background, tasawuf is one of its origin. However, Iqbal does not accept the philosophisizing of Tasawuf. He considers Tasawuf a practical discipline, whose primary role was purification of self and moral reformation. Iqbal emphasizes this role of Tasawuf. In his poetry and prose he appreciates many dimension of Tasawuf and criticizes many too.
