Today we are going to take you to the colonial roots of India where the idea of the reorganisation of the Indian subcontinent was first seeded. Allama Muhammad Iqbal is referred to as the spiritual father of Pakistan whose basis of philosophy and poetic expression stood out to not only ignite many but also acted as the source of promulgating pan-Islamic stance in his later life. This episode shall also discuss the transitioning phase of Iqbal's life from advocating diverse nationalism to Muslim separatism and the events that shaped his view. It is an attempt to trace the centre of Iqbal's complexities.
