IDEOLOGY OF PAKISTAN
Q1. Write down the aims & objectives of the creation of Pakistan?
Ans. Pakistan came into being on 14th August 1947. The Muslims of India
had scarifies there wealth honour & life to make a Pakistan reality. Struggle for
attainment of Pakistan started very after the war of independence 1857.
Aims & Objectives of the Creation of Pakistan
After the war of Independence the Muslims were greatly pressed by the
Hindus as well as the British. Social, political and economical conditions of the
Muslims were totally changed. That is why they demanded for a separate
state of their own. Following were the Aims & Objectives that led to the
creation of Pakistan.
1. Setting up of a Free Islamic Society:
The main objective of the creation of Pakistan was to establish a free Islamic
Society having its own identity and government, practicing its own social
principles and religion and inviting the Muslims of the world, particularly and
others generally to adopt the Islamic way of life.
2. Protection from Communal Riots:
The communal Riots on every other day made it clear that the Hindus could
monopolies the politics after the departure of The British. The lives of Muslims
could never be safe in the united India. The Hindu organizations had again
and again asserted that Hindu Raj would be imposed on India after the
independence. So to get rid of these atrocities the Muslims demanded their
separate state.
3. Social & Political Development of Muslims:
After the war of Independence 1857, the social environment was totally
changed. The Muslims were scared of the caste system and other
discriminations. They could enjoy neither political nor social liberties;
therefore, they preferred to have a separate homeland in which they could live
according to the teachings of Islam.
4. Protection of Muslim Language
The Hindus did the best to replace Urdu by Hindi. But they did not succeed
during British period. If South Asia had got freedom without partition, the
Hindu majority could very easily declare Hindi, the official and national
language. The Hindu government could wipe out all signs of Muslim culture;
therefore, the Muslims had no choice except putting a demand for Pakistan.
5. Protection of Two Nation Theory:
The Muslims claimed separate nationhood for themselves and they were
determined to maintain a separate entity for all times to come. The Muslims

believe in separate religion, practice different traditions, and have their own
history and their cultural heritage. Their claim was absolutely true. It was their
right to keep their separate entity alive and to enjoy all human rights. This was
not possible in undivided India.
6. Establishment of Islamic State:
Islam is a complete code of life. The Muslims wanted to implement the system
practically. This could not be attained in United India therefore, they passed a
resolution and demanded an Islamic state in the North East and North West of
South Asia.
7. Setting up of True Islamic Society:
Islam upholds the golden principles of freedom, justice, brotherhood and
equality but living for centuries with the Hindu community, the Muslims were
gradually ignoring, consciously or unconsciously, these principles. Islam gives
guidance for individual as well as collective life. It has its own principles such
as ban on usuary, gambling, to refrain from all unlawful means of income and
expenditure. Again extravagance is regarded devilish. The rights of the
neighbours are stressed which results in social security to all. God-fearing and
belief in the Hereafter are the basis for the social life of the Muslims.
8. Dream of Muslims to get freedom:
Due to the ill treatment of Hindus and British the Muslims also wanted to get
freedom and established their own Govt. in the sub continent because the
freedom is right of every nation and the country. For this reason they
demanded Pakistan.
9. Narrow Mindedness of Hindus:
The Hindu community‟s narrow mindedness could be gauged from the fact
that they do not feel ashamed of idol worship during the 20 th century even.
The women are considered slaves. They do not recognize the right of second
marriage for the widow. They consider themselves much superior to the
people of their own race. The Hindus declare a thing polluted if it has been
touched by a Muslim. There was a concept of caste systems in the Hindus
itself. There was only one way of Muslim‟s deliverance from such a narrow-
minded and prejudiced community, and that was a separate state comprising
the provinces of Muslim majority, and as such they demanded a separate
homeland.
10. To get rid of the British:
After the war of independence (1857), the British maltreated the Muslims.
Political rights of the Muslims were snatched. Doors of new jobs were closed
and also the Muslims were deprived of their jobs and were deprived of their
property (estates). There was no social status for the Muslims. So they
demanded separate homeland.
11. Attainment of Peaceful Atmosphere:

After the formation of Mahasabha and its entrance into politics, prejudiced
movements like Shuddhi and Sangthan were born. Riots occurred here and
there. They extinguished the fire of revenge by dishonouring the mosques or
attacking Moharram processions. The daily increase in riots had given a
warning to the Muslims. It is rightly remarked that the last 25 years were spent
in Hindu-Muslim civil war. Its cure was no other than the creation of Pakistan
in the Muslim majority provinces so that the daily occurrences of riots may
come to an end. The Muslims may enjoy the peaceful conditions in a separate
state of their own.
12. Islamic Culture and Civilization:
Success of congress in elections of 1937 and capturing the leadership was an
enough proof that the Hindus wanted to demolish Muslim civilization and
culture. Every now and then new intrigues were hatched to destroy the
Muslim‟s religious values. The breeding of cows and to worship them was the
reckoned culture of Hindustan. The Hindu community was planning to prevail
upon Muslims in their customs and ceremonies. The Muslim ceremonies were
interfered whereas the Hindu festivals of Diwali, Lorhis, Dasehra were
celebrated with great pomp and show. In short, if India were not divided, this
country would have become a pure Hindu State and the next generation of
Muslims would have been Muslim only by name, but it would have been
impossible for the Muslims to follow Islam practically.
13. Deliverance from Economic Exploitation:
The Hindus community was not contented with the political rule; it was
determined to worsen the condition of the minorities economically. But
especially they wanted to take revenge from the Muslims for their past
defeats. Under the patronage of the English, the Hindus were made the
owners of the land. They were encouraged in trade and commerce also. Only
the trade of hydes and skins remained with the Muslims. They were
encouraged in the trade of shining nature, or some factory, and that belonged
to a Muslims, they started cut throat competitions. So after being disheartened
the Muslims had to leave the factory or trade. The Muslims had seen this state
of affairs for years till they reached the conclusion that where the problems
were settled by the votes of majority, it was hardly possible to live along with
the prejudiced and cruel Hindu majority. The sole aim of the Hindus was to re-
convert the Muslims to Hinduism and absorb them in that religion. So there
was no room left for the Muslims except demanding a separate independent
homeland, for themselves.
20. Muslim Unity:
Muslims were dispersed in the 20th century especially after the failure of
Khilafat movement. The Muslims wanted to become united again because
