The tradition of Islamic Philosophy is still very much alive today despite the belief in many Western circles that this tradition ceased after the golden ages of [[Shahab al-Din Suhrawardi|Suhrawardi]]’s ''Hikmat al-Ishraq'' (Illumination Philosophy) or, at the latest, [[Mulla Sadra]]’s ''Hikmat-e-Mota’aliye'' or Transcendent (Exalted) Philosophy. Another unavoidable name is [[Iqbal|Allama Muhammad Iqbal]] who reshaped and revitalized Islamic philosophy amongst the Muslims of the Indian sub-continent in the early 20th century[http://www.allamaiqbal.com/]. Beside his [[Urdu]] and [[Persian language|Persian]] poetical work, [[The Reconstruction of Religious Thought in Islam]] [http://www.allamaiqbal.com/works/prose/english/reconstruction/] is a milestone in the modern political philosophy of Islam.
