The influence of Iqbal’s thought is evident Haider’s novels, particularly in themes such as historic consciousness, collectivism, and national decline. Many of her novel titles are directly inspired by Iqbal’s poetry, further reflecting this intellectual connection.This research paper analytically examines the resonance of Iqbal’s ideas Haider’s novels, highlighting parallels in their intellectual evolution and literary works.
