Pakistan Was A Miracle!

But Today It’s An Example

How Corruption Destroys

A Strong State!

مجھے ہے حکم اذاں ، لا الہ الا اللہ

the Ummah, I have the mandate to pronounce the Truth

that there is no god but Allah.” – Allama Iqbal)

Corrupt nations can only

survive as beggars,

pimps & prostitutes,

and slaves to other

stronger corrupt nations!

14th of August is the independence anniversary of Pakistan, the second biggest Islamic state in the world. On this occasion, I would like to share with you the thoughts of Mohammad Ali Jinnah, the founding father of Pakistan. Jinnah was not a Prophet but he did show the world his miracle. He singlehandedly carved Pakistan out of the world map – a homeland for millions of Muslims of India. And that could only happen with the Divine support as many Mullahs of India opposed him for one reason or the other. But most Muslims adored him and were so impressed that, out of love and respect, they called him “Quaid-e-Azam” (the great leader), and justly so!

During its ‘golden era’ in the 1960’s, Pakistan was a strong country with solid economy. Under the leadership of President General Mohammad Ayub Khan, it helped countries like Germany, Japan, Korea, Indonesia and others. That was the time when US Dollar was equal to Pakistan Rs.4.50 only.

The best way to celebrate the Independence Day is to recall the struggle, fight and sacrifices offered by the Muslims of joint India, and renew the pledge. On this occasion, I would like to remind Pakistani people of the thoughts of their Father of Nation, M.A. Jinnah.

Quaid-e-Azam (Mohammad Ali Jinnah) said:

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

“I should like to give a warning to the landlords

and capitalists who have flourished at our expense

by a system which is so vicious, which is so wicked

and which makes them so selfish that it is difficult

to reason with them. The exploitation of the masses

has gone into their blood. They have forgotten

the lessons of Islam.”

-- Quaid-e-Azam

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

“No nation can rise to the height of glory unless your women are side by side with you.”

“No struggle can ever succeed without women participating side by side with men.”

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

“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.”

-- Quaid-e-Azam

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

“Think 100 times before you take a decision, but once that decision is taken, stand by it as one man.”

“With faith, discipline and selfless devotion to duty, there is nothing worthwhile that you cannot achieve.”

“Expect the best, prepare for the worst.”

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

“You have to stand guard over the development

and maintenance of Islamic democracy, Islamic

social justice and the equality of mankind

in your own native soil.”

-- Quaid-e-Azam

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

“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.”

“You will no doubt agree with me that 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…..…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.”

(Mohammad Ali Jinnah and Fatimah Jinnah with Ayub Khan who became President in 1958, and later founded Islamabad.)

“That freedom can never be attained by a nation without suffering and sacrifice has been amply borne out by the recent tragic happenings in this subcontinent.”

“The great majority of us are Muslims. We follow the teachings of the Prophet Mohammed (pbuh). 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.”

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

“The adoption of Western economic theory

and practice will not help us in achieving our

goal of creating a happy and contented people.

We must work our destiny in our own way

and present to the world an economic system

based on the true Islamic concept of equality

of manhood and social justice”

-- Mohammad Ali Jinnah

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

“Brotherhood, equality, and fraternity of man – these are all the basic points of our religion, culture and civilization and we fought for Pakistan because there was a danger of the denial of these human rights in the Subcontinent.”
