About the book

"The Development of Metaphysics in Persia" by Sir Muhammad Iqbal is a philosophical work published in 1908. Originally submitted as his PhD thesis at the University of Munich, this groundbreaking study traces the evolution of metaphysical thought in Persia across millennia—from the ancient teachings of Zoroaster through successive philosophical developments to the emergence of the Baháʼí Faith. Drawing on original Persian and Arabic manuscripts, Iqbal charts an intellectual journey through one of history's richest philosophical traditions.
