Ijma’ means consensus in Islamic law, the universal and infallible agreement of either the Muslim community as a whole or Muslim scholars in particular. Iqbal—a great Urdu and Persian poet and Muslim scholar—urges the need of Ijma’ in Islamic jurisprudence, uṣūl al-fiqh. In this research paper, the scholar has given a detailed illustration on the importance of Ijma’, its usefulness, technical problems and definition in the light of the thoughts of Allama Iqbal.
