GHAZALI AND IQBAL'S THOUGHTS - AN OVERVIEW

Abstract

Allama Ghazali does not like slavery. According to him, slaves should be treated better. They consider it a desirable act to free a slave. Allama Ghazali also points out that time can put the master in chains of slavery. Iqbal hates slavery. According to him, slavery makes minds backward. Slave abilities are used by masters to further their own interests. In this way slaves lose their personal identity. On the contrary, the master's self becomes stronger and stronger. It is the weakness of the slave's self that gives birth to Pharaohism. That is why Iqbal has called slavery a curse. Slavery refers to a slave who does not like to speak in his own form and condition. Even knowingly or unknowingly, Iqbal's views on slavery are harsh. He calls slavery "helplessness."
