From 1915 to 1938, Dr. Sir Muhammad Iqbal devised an intricate structure of writings in English prose and Persian and Urdu poetry. Although those writings have been widely acclaimed as great literature of the world, their internal coherence was never completely explored until recently.

In the book THE REPUBLIC OF RUMI: A NOVEL OF REALITY (2007), author Khurram Ali Shafique demonstrated that the internal coherence in the writings of Iqbal allows for discovering several deeper layers of meaning never noticed before. They reveal a unique reinterpretation of the message of Rumi for the 21st Century and beyond.

‘The Republic of Rumi Model’ is based on this system. It is the premise which removes contradictions.
