Abstract

This study discusses the history of Islamic thought from two great figures, Qasim Amin and Muhammad Iqbal. Qasim Amin, born in 1863 in Cairo, Egypt, is known as a pioneer of feminism who fought for gender equality and women's rights. Amin highlighted the importance of education and marriage reform for women, which is reflected in his famous works, "Tahrir al Mar'ah" (Emancipation of Women) and "al Mar'at al Jadidah" ​​(Modern Women). His thoughts emerged in response to the conditions of Egyptian women who were marginalized in social relations with men. On the other hand, Muhammad Iqbal, born on November 9, 1877 in Sialkot, India, and died on April 21, 1938, developed Islamic thought that includes three main foundations: the Qur'an, hadith, and ijtihad. Iqbal's profound thoughts on the intuition of self, the world, and God are reflected in his important works such as "The Development of Metaphysic in Persia", "Asrar-I Khudi", and "The Reconstruction of Religious Thought in Islam". Iqbal received higher education in Lahore, Cambridge, and Munich, which enriched his intellectual insight. This study illustrates how both thinkers contributed significantly to the renewal and development of Islamic thought, especially in the social and spiritual context.
