Pakistan’s Independence Day

14^th August: A Day To

Renew Our Pledge

And Rid The Nation Of

All Hypocrites (Munafiqeen)

(M. Javed Naseem)

“You have to stand guard over the development

and maintenance of Islamic democracy, Islamic

social justice and the equality of manhood

(mankind) in your own native soil.”
― Muhammad Ali Jinnah

“With faith, discipline and selfless devotion

to duty, there is nothing worthwhile that

you cannot achieve.”
― Muhammad Ali Jinnah

 **********************************

It has been 70 years now that Pakistan won its independence from the British colonial masters and the majority of Indian Muslims got rid of the racist Hindu terrorism in August 1947. Those Muslims who chose to stay back in India, are constantly suffering apartheid, even barbarianism at the hands of racist, violent Hindu groups. Muslims and other minorities (especially Dalits) are being attacked in all towns/cities of India; their houses burnt; their women raped; men killed and youngsters beaten and imprisoned. Human rights violations are increasing in Kashmir and other parts. Minorities have no rights, nor protection. They are living in fear.

“The great majority of us are Muslims. We follow

the teachings of the Prophet Mohammed (may

peace be upon him). We are members of the

brotherhood of Islam in which all are equal in

rights, dignity and self-respect. Consequently,

we have a special and a very deep sense of unity.

But make no mistake! Pakistan is not a theocracy

or anything like it.”
― Muhammad Ali Jinnah

Today, in India, the violence is happening in the name of “cow protection” – as human protection has no priority in the biggest hypocrisy of the world. This cow-fever was spread and fueled by the ruling racist BJP during the last few years. Before this, the label of ‘terrorism’ had been used and Muslims were arrested in big numbers. They are killed by thousands each and every year by the ‘peace-loving’ Hindu junta.

This was going on in India for a hundred years! And that was the main reason for the creation of Pakistan. For years, Muslims tried to cooperate with the racist Hindu majority but in vain. Even the Muslim leader Muhammad Ali Jinnah pleaded for Hindu-Muslim unity to fight the common colonial enemy – the Britain. Jinnah had joined the Congress party as Congress assured him of a just solution to the apartheid problem and equal rights for Muslims. But Congress lied, as usual. For many years, Jinnah worked with Gandhi and Nehru to achieve a respectable and jus solution for Muslims of India but those Hindu leaders were unable to control their mobs. Eventually, Jinnah left the Congress party and later on, it was an RSS Hindu extremist who killed Gandhi because Gandhi preached peace with Muslims.

Jinnah had told his followers that they could no longer live with hate-mongers who did not recognize Muslims’ rights.

“India is not a nation, nor a country. It is a

subcontinent of nationalities. …

“No settlement with the majority is possible

as no Hindu leader speaking with any authority

shows any concern or genuine desire for it.”
― Muhammad Ali Jinnah

When Muhammad Ali Jinnah was convinced (after years of vain efforts) that racist Hindu, especially the RSS organization, would not leave Muslims in peace, he not only quit Congress party but also changed his mind. He was sure that Hindu-Muslim unity could not work, so he started demanding a new country for Indian Muslims. After a great struggle and a lot of sacrifices, Pakistan was created.

“We should have a State in which we could live

and breathe as free men and which we could

develop according to our own lights and culture

and where principles of Islamic social justice

could find free play.”
― Muhammad Ali Jinnah

Then, the second phase of violence was started by the RSS (racist Hindu outfit). They would attack the Muslim caravans, trains, buses, trucks, carts, or anything that was moving in the direction of Pakistan. Their slogan was:

“You want Pakistan, we’ll give you death!”

And they did give that to many thousands of Indian Muslims who were trying to migrate to the areas now part of Pakistan. That mentality is still alive – very much alive and kicking – today. The politicians, who knew that they have no solution to the problems of Indian masses, no economic program, no development plan, no welfare project, they relied on the “hate plan” and slogans. And that worked. It works every time despite the fact that these politicians are not liked by the masses as they have no integrity; no credibility; they are not trustworthy. So, they cash in on racism and hate.

“Come forward as servants of Islam,

organize the people economically, socially,

educationally and politically and I am sure

that you will be a power that will be

accepted by everybody.”
― Muhammad Ali Jinnah

Muhammad Ali Jinnah (called by the nation ‘Quaid-e-Azam’ – the great leader) said in August 1947, just a couple of days before the official creation of Pakistan:

“No power can hold another nation, and specially a nation of 400 million souls, in subjection; nobody could have conquered you, and even if it had happened, nobody could have continued its hold on you for any length of time, but for this. Therefore, we must learn a lesson from this. You are free; you are free to go to your temples, you are free to go to your mosques or to any other place or worship in this State of Pakistan. You may belong to any religion or caste or creed -- that has nothing to do with the business of the State. As you know, history shows that in England conditions, some time ago, were much worse than those prevailing in India today. The Roman Catholics and the Protestants persecuted each other. Even now there are some States in existence where there are discriminations made and bars imposed against a particular class. Thank God, we are not starting in those days. We are starting in the days where there is no discrimination, no distinction. … We are starting with this fundamental principle: that we are all citizens, and equal citizens, of one State.”

********************************************

Pakistan is an Islamic State, not a secular state

(as promoted by hypocrites). Islam gave minorities

all rights 1400 years ago that secularism (which

was invented centuries later) could not guarantee

even today. Secularism exists on paper only

because all secular states of the modern world are

discriminating against Muslims and other minorities

directly or indirectly, one way or the other.

“Pakistan not only means freedom and

independence but the Muslim Ideology

which has to be preserved, which has come

to us as a precious gift and treasure and

which, we hope other will share with us.”
― Muhammad Ali Jinnah

Excerpts from the historic speech that Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah delivered while addressing the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan, on 11^th  of August, 1947:

“I shall watch with keenness the work of your Research Organization in evolving banking practices compatible with Islamic ideas of social and economic life. The economic system of the West has created almost insoluble problems for humanity and to many of us it appears that only a miracle can save it from disaster that is now facing the world. It has failed to do justice between man and man and to eradicate friction from the international field. On the contrary, it was largely responsible for the two world wars in the last half century. The Western world, in spite of its advantages, of mechanization and industrial efficiency is today in a worse mess than ever before in history. The adoption of Western economic theory and practice will not help us in achieving our goal of creating a happy and contended people. We must work our destiny in our own way and present to the world an economic system based on true Islamic concept of equality of manhood and social justice. We will thereby be fulfilling our mission as Muslims and giving to humanity the message of peace which alone can save it and secure the welfare, happiness and prosperity of mankind.”

“The first duty of a government is to maintain law and order, so that the life, property and religious beliefs of its subjects are fully protected by the State.”

“The second thing that occurs to me is this: One of the biggest curses from which India is suffering - I do not say that other countries are free from it, but, I think our condition is much worse - is bribery and corruption. That really is a poison. We must put that down with an iron hand and I hope that you will take adequate measures as soon as it is possible for this Assembly to do so.”

“Black-marketing is another curse. Well, I know that black-marketers are frequently caught and punished. Judicial sentences are passed, or sometimes fines only are imposed. Now you have to tackle this monster, which today is a colossal crime against society, in our distressed conditions, when we constantly face shortage of food and other essential commodities of life. A citizen who does black-marketing commits, I think, a greater crime than the biggest and most grievous of crimes. These black-marketers are really knowing, intelligent, and ordinarily responsible people, and when they indulge in black-marketing, I think they ought to be very severely punished, because they undermine the entire system of control and regulation of foodstuffs and essential commodities, and cause wholesale starvation and want and even death.”

“My message to you all is of hope, courage and

confidence. Let us mobilize all our resources in a

systematic and organized way and tackle the grave

issues that confront us with grim determination

and discipline worthy of a great nation!”
― Muhammad Ali Jinnah

“The next thing that strikes me is this: Here again it is a legacy which has been passed on to us. Along with many other things, good and bad, has arrived this great evil -- the evil of nepotism and jobbery. I want to make it quite clear that I shall never tolerate any kind of jobbery (corrupt employment practices), nepotism, or any influence, directly or indirectly, brought to bear upon me. Whenever I will find that such a practice is in vogue or is continuing anywhere, low or high, I shall certainly not countenance it.”

“Now, if we want to make this great State of Pakistan happy and prosperous, we should wholly and solely concentrate on the well-being of the people, and especially of the masses and the poor. If you will work in co-operation, forgetting the past, burying the hatchet, you are bound to succeed. If you change your past and work together in a spirit that every one of you, no matter to what community he belongs, no matter what relations he had with you in the past, no matter what is his color, caste, or creed, is first, second, and last a citizen of this State with equal rights, privileges, and obligations, there will be no end to the progress you will make.”

“Islam expect every Muslim to do this duty,

and if we realize our responsibility, time will

come soon when we shall justify ourselves

worthy of a glorious past.”
― Muhammad Ali Jinnah

“I shall always be guided by the principles of justice and fair play without any, as is put in the political language, prejudice or ill-will; in other words, partiality or favouritism. My guiding principle will be justice and complete impartiality, and I am sure that with your support and co-operation, I can look forward to Pakistan becoming one of the greatest Nations of the world.”
