Abstract

Allama Muhammad Iqbal, a renowned poet and philosopher of the Islamic world, belonged to a devoutly religious family and embodied the spirit of a true Muslim. The most valuable and prominent aspect of his life was his profound love and unwavering obedience to the Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him). While Iqbal's poetry does not adopt the traditional style of Naat recitation, it resonates deeply with an immense and unfathomable devotion to the Holy Prophet. His writing reveals a unique and spiritual perspective on the event of the Prophet’s Ascension (Mi'raj), illustrating the mysteries and wisdom of this miraculous journey. Dedicated to the service and supremacy of Islam, Iqbal aspired for all Muslims to not only embody the teachings of Allah and His Messenger but also to spread this divine message to every corner of the world.
