Muhammad Iqbal and Mohammad Ali Jinnah are normally credited as the founding fathers of
Pakistan. Both of them, to begin with, were the supporters of Indian nationalism and later, due to
their political and social experiences they emerged as the champions of the idea of Muslim
nationalism in South Asia. Two of them had very little interaction with each other yet the
partnership between the two had left a great impact on the history of this region. In late 1920s
Iqbal and Jinnah supported two different groups of Muslim League. However, in 1930s they
realized that actually they were trying to reach the same destination by following separate paths.
Eventually they developed a relationship based on trust and respect. Iqbal played a major role in
the making of Jinnah as the leader of Pakistan movement. It was the combination of Iqbal’s
philosophical mind and Jinnah’s statesmanship which ultimately resulted in the creation of a
nation state, Pakistan.
