The Reconstruction of Religious Thought in Islam

This is an excellent book, although it can be a bit difficult to understand.

Everyone should read this book.

Good

I like this product very much it's having a very good packaging and if you are a book lover it's best for you t's having a small QURAN-E-PAAK also with some of it's surah I reccomends to buy this awesome product.Thnk u!

No doubt book is goodGo for it

Printing quality is nice you can read it easily but the cover isn't that good. If you take my suggestion you should buy the book because you mean to read.

Good one to read and grasp the philosophy. Need to have background knowledge of history of subcontinent and author's role in freedom struggle and the reason of partition of India

Good Read for understanding the real Allama Iqbal

Excellent book based on the study of the Quran - anyone interested in the human self development, this book is invaluable. Human self is based on the use of our mind to create our own personalty. The Quran gives us the permanent values and if we live our life within these values, then our thinking develops in line with the signs given in the Quran. Our outlook becomes global and we see the mankind as one community - then we can see the human issues on a global basis. The Quran is not a religious book as generally believed - it is a book which deals with the human thought process and helps us to create our own self which can go on developing......

If I had to rate the printing and paper quality I'd give it a 2 - the ink smudges and the paper feels very meh.The thoughts and insights are fascinating though - if you're interested in Islam then it's worth reading for sure.

A late but central work of the Islamic Nahda at its climax, comparable to Abdhuh or Rida's. The most fascinating probably is the way Iqbal merges a scientific approach and an undisputable spirituality through a clever exposition of metaphysics as a unifying ground. Sincerely, this book presents what I deem is the best source of optimism for whoever questions the ability of "cultures" or "civilizations" to understand each other; arguably westerners may think that Iqbal like Abduh is too much obsessed with the idea of giving evidence of the superiority of the Islamic Spirit over Christianity, but overall it is a rare pleasure to jump from Whitehead to Al-Beruni, from Bergson to Ibn-Khaldun, etc.Iqbal's mind is sharp and even faithless people like me will find "The reconstruction of religious thought in Islam" inspiring as it brings a balanced understand of the wholeness in life. For those who are familiar with his poetry (especially "The Secrets of the Self"), they may regret the brillance of it; but the meaning is also far more accessible for it was originally a set of courses given in Hyderabad during the pre-independence era.

Sir Mohammad Iqbal is one of the greatest poet, philosopher and theologists (yet secular) of all times. He understood Qur'an and Islam probably like no one else did. His poetry and his books reflect that. It's said that his poetry is an excellent translation of Qur'an, and I couldn't agree more. He was a barrister at law from GB and was given the title of 'Sir'. He however returned to India and gave the concept of Pakistan, a separate country from Muslims, to Mohammad Ali Jinnah.

I expected a bit more in the concluding statements in the book. In some instances I felt there were contradicting statements made in the book. I was also expecting a little bit more to have been written about the Quran, especially coming from a scholar like Iqbal it would have meant a lot to me. Overall I liked the book and certainly would recommend it to others to read.
