^^ the only oppression I have seen is by ignorant moolahs of even more ignorant populace.

The only organization that is anyway near being Islamic is the Armed forces.

The only propogators of bribery and corruption I have seen are who have feet both in Pakistan and overseas, who come home with their filthy lucre and tempt our impovrished people becuase the scumbags do not want to wait for anything.

the thing i'm tryin to say is that there is no islam in pakistan ,so the thing u r celebratin 4 has no purpose

The creation of Pakistan was definitely a great victory for the Muslims. We should not forget the millions of Muslims who sealed the border of Pakistan with their blood. We should not render their great sacrifices in vain. Pakistan was created for Muslims as an Islamic state, to stand by the principles of the Holy Quran and the Shariat. In the words of the founder, Qaid-e-Azam:

"Everyone, except those who are ignorant, knows that the Qur’an is the general code of the Muslims. A religious, social, civil, commercial, military, judicial, criminal, penal code; it regulates everything from the ceremonies of religion to those of daily life."

and

"What is that keeps the Muslims united, and what is the bedrock and sheet-anchor of the community? It is Islam. It is the Great Book, Qur’an, that is the sheet-anchor of Muslim India. I am sure that as we go on and on there will be more and more of oneness _ one God, one Book, one Prophet and one Nation."

and

"It is my belief that our salvation lies in following the golden rules of conduct set for us by our great law giver, the Prophet of Islam. Let us lay the foundations of our democracy on the basis of truly Islamic ideals and principles. Our Almighty has taught us that our decisions in the affairs of the State shall be guided by discussions and consultations."

And obviously the Qaid knew his Holy Quran well, because it does say:

Those who hearken to their Lord, and establish regular Prayer; who (conduct) their affairs by mutual consultation; who spend out of what We bestow on them for Sustenance (42:38)

Those who say that the Qaid-e-Azam was a secularist, the mustafa kemal of india, etc., are clearly wrong. Qaid-e-Azam believed that the Holy Quran is the standard, the bedrock of Muslims in every aspect of their lives, including government. Unfortunately, once Pakistan became a reality, he died just over a year and the original idealogy of the country was high-jacked by feudal interests which had little regard for the social justice promoted by Islam.

you can't help but wonder how pakistan would have evolved if the qaid hadn't died so soon.
i am not sure that he envisioned a nation under shariah, or a nation where muslims (and others) could be free to practice their religions, and where no law could be made that went against islam.
i think there is still debate on this issue.
