The Khudi is the central idea of Alama Iqbal’s philosophical thoughts. In English Khudi is translated as Ego or Self. Iqbal (RA) presented it as self-awareness, unlike its general meaning of Pride. Iqbal’s idea of Khudi is the reaction to the general convictions and traditional concepts of self where it considers as a delusion of mind. He divided loftiness of character into Unique self (that is God), Creative self (that is man) and Larger self (that is society). Alama Iqbal’s philosophy is according with the message of the Holy Quran. Iqbal (RA) provided the subsequent concept in “Asrar-i-Khudi” in these verses: “Since the lifestyle of the universe comes from the electricity of self Life is proportional to this electricity When a drop of water receives the self’s lesson via way of means of heart It makes its nugatory life a pearl. As the grass located the electricity of increase in its self Its aspiration cloves the breast of the garden. Because the earth has a being this is firm, The captive moon is going spherical it perpetually. The being of the solar is more potent than that of earth. Therefore, is the earth bewitched via way of means of the solar’s eye When lifestyles gather electricity from the self, The river of lifestyles expands into an ocean” Many philosophers gave different ideas to create individuality. According to Iqbal (RA), the development of individuality is a creative process which can only achieve when man must play an active role in the universe. Iqbal (RA) emphasis an individual must not spend passive life just adapting the environment. He has to be actively playing his role to develop his individuality. When Iqbal emerged as a scholar and presented his philosophical thoughts different views were viral in the society. Iqbal (RA) believed that Man is a creative self and that he creates his own environment.

When an individual aware of such creative power in own self this is the beginning of ‘Self awakening”. This provides a sense of identity and self-determination. By praising the innovative self of Man, Iqbal (RA) convinces Nature as an automobile of self-development, He writes: Sparks are hidden in my soul, Mountains and fields are gateways for my wanderings. Mingle with my ocean in case you are a field, Catch my sparks in case you are Sīnā’ī. According to Quran every human has a unique personality that’s why no one can bear the burden of another and can be examine according to its capacity.
