Something Which We Dont Know About Jinnah
December 25th, 2012, posted in PAKiSTAN, POEPLes
The Jinnah we knew was very different from the one we see on our bank notes. The one on our bank notes is dull, monotonous and peculiarly lifeless.
Growing up in Pakistan, it feels like we’ve been robbed of what Jinnah’s legacy was. Nobody knows who he was, or how he thought. We never knew our Jinnah was immensely classy with 200+ Savile Row suits, someone dripping with the Brit culture, but turned around and gave them Brits a taste of their own medicine. Someone with the intellectuality of bringing a nation into being. Someone who Iqbal trusted with the responsibility of implementing his ideologies. Jinnah, with his great-danes and his Rolls-Royce was the pinnacle of wealth and status back in the days. We are never taught how someone from that position would go on to build a whole nation, unprecedented. How someone was build to challenge the status-quo, so radically.
Growing up in Pakistan, we haven’t read anything though we think we know everything about Jinnah because we use to start off our essays with ‘MAJ was born in Karachi to Jinnah Punja on 25th December’. We have been robbed off the intellectual conversations carried between Jinnah and Iqbal in letters. We’ve been robbed of knowing our leader in the truest essence. Heck we never even bothered to read his biography, which shamefully a gora wrote, instead of a Pakistani.
We, with our declining intellects and exaggerated patriotism, disappoint you Jinnah.

Background History :
Meeting of Muslim League:
Failure of 1857 war of independence was linked of this series. Muslims thinking were changing under circumstances. Behavior of many other nations in the sub-continent Muslims forced to struggle for their rights. Pakistan’s concept was not a creation of an emergency or emotional situation. Muslims had thought for centuries and taken a decision in the light of experience. Resolution of Pakistan has a milestone position to Pakistan movement. On 20 March 1940 annual meeting of the Muslim League began in Minto Park, Lahore.
Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah Speech:
Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah presided over the meeting. In his speech on March 22 he explained the India’s political background. Muslims and Hindus are two separate nations. These both nations are religiously, historically, culturally and many other aspects are identified separately from each other. Islam and Hinduism as a religion in the deep difference. Principles of Hinduism comparable with Islam do not have any relevance. Islam is religion to offer a complete system. That such a system is fully functional.
Establishment and concept of separate Muslim state Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah to prove to several international examples. The word Pakistan was not used anywhere in Lahore Resolution. But as soon as the resolution approved. Hindu newspapers and all India Congress had naming the resolution, as resolution of Pakistan and Hindus had started opposition against it. Finally, after long struggle and many sacrifices Pakistan came into being in 14 August 1947.
The Day Event:
Pakistan Day (23rd March) is commencing with traditional way by Pakistani troops with 21 guns salute.
We Must Respect our Home Country Independence:
Once a noble man said that, this home country of Pakistan is just like a camel of the Prophet Hazrat Saleh (P.B.U.H). The way the people of Prophet Saleh have not treated the camel with dignity. Almighty Allah revealed the torment because of their wrong deeds. Thus we have not even respected our country. The country is suffering because of the current disturbance and uncertainty situation is because of this worthlessness. That’s why we are also now suffering from all kinds of problems. If we now do not struggle for the honor and dignity of this country. Our situation will be not less than like the nation of Prophet Hazrat Saleh (P.B.U.H). We should all of us live in their places to fulfill their responsibilities. It is our moral duty. WAKE UP PAKISTANIS !

The word “Pakistan” means “Land of the Pure” in Urdu and Persian language. In this blog, Razib Ahmed wrote two articles about Pakistan tourism: Pakistani Government trying for Tourism in Pakistan: Some tourist attractions. For the last few days, I have been writing about tourism in the South Asian countries like Pakistan travel guide. Here are twelve reasons why you should visit Pakistan:
If you enjoy visiting the historical sites then I would say Pakistan is a must visit for you. This country bears the remains of the dawn of human civilization. Without seeing it, your knowledge of history would remain incomplete. The history of Pakistan can be traced back to 3000 B.C. The Indus valley civilization, stretching from Kashmir to the Arabian Sea is one of the first civilizations of the world and it included the area of the present day Pakistan. The two major centers of this civilization are: Harappa, on the bank of Ravi in Sahiwal district and Moenjo Daro, situated in the Larkana district.
Modern day Pakistan consists of four major parts called provinces Sindh, Punjab, Balochistan and North-West Frontier Province. It also governs part of Kashmir which is currently split between Pakistan and India. The Indus region was the site of several ancient cultures including Mehrgarh, one of the world’s earliest known towns, and the Indus Valley Civilization (2500 BCE – 1500 BCE) at Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro.
Waves of conquerors and migrants including Harappan, Indo-Aryan, Persian, Grecian, Saka, Parthian, Kushan, White Hun, Afghan, Arab, Turkics, and Mughal settled in the Indo-Gangetic plains throughout the centuries, influencing the locals and being absorbed among them. The modern state of Pakistan was established on 14 August 1947, but the region has an extensive history that overlaps with the histories of India, Afghanistan and Iran. The region is a crossroad of historic trade routes, including the Silk Road.
