Ideology Pakistan is the name of adapting individual and
collective life to Islam and avoiding ideologies which are against Islam.
(Professor Dr. Aslam Syed)
The ideology of Pakistan is the name of the faith and the foundation on which the movement for the establishment of Pakistan was launched. This belief and mission was, of course, Islam. On this basis the Muslims of India claimed to be a separate nation from the Hindus and demanded the establishment of a separate independent and sovereign state for this nation within the subcontinent so that the Muslims of the subcontinent could organize their individual and collective life according to Islamic principles. (Professor Abdul qadir Khan)
The collective goal of the Muslims of the subcontinent which
they adopted in view of the political situation to get rid of the religious,
political and economic domination of the Hindus of India. According to which the establishment of an independent
Islamic state in the name of Pakistan was declared necessary. So that the people living in it, individually
and collectively, can adapt their lives to Islam.
Explanation of the ideology of Pakistan:
Considering the above definitions, it is clear that the ideology of Pakistan is based on bi-national concept and the basis of bi-national concept is Islam.
Islam is a complete code of life for Muslims of the subcontinent
are a part of the Muslim nation because of their affiliation with Islam. If any part of the Muslim nation gains or
seeks to gain supremacy in a geographical region, it will be called a Muslim
nation in terms of its specific geographical boundaries.
Considering this background, it is clear that the ideology of Pakistan appeared and became prominent in the history of Pakistan and India when the first Muslims stepped on its soil and introduced Islam to that land. Islam is a religion with a complete code of conduct. Islam has a comprehensive view of life. Islam is the basic ideology that guides our problems and difficulties in the best possible way. Islam has maintained its existence in spite of all opposing forces and oppositions. Even before the advent of Islam, there was an ideology in the Indian subcontinent. But the idea was not very broad. It was limited to one area and society. This ideology consisted of certain beliefs and certain customs. As far as Hinduism is concerned, it can be fearlessly denied that it is not at all capable of providing guidelines for the political, economic and cultural spheres. That is why every nation that entered the subcontinent merged with Hinduism. On the contrary, Islam was a complete system.
It had absolutely no need to take anything from Hinduism. Therefore, Islamic culture has managed to keep its uniqueness in its original form. Every effort was made to eradicate Islam from the face of the earth in the Indian subcontinent. But this Islamic ideology has become more and more radiant in every age and in every age. Those who sincerely adhered to this ideology did not refrain from making financial and human sacrifices for its survival. In fact, the real story of the sacrifices is the Tehreek-e-Pakistan. In this movement the concept of Pakistan was presented and then its political nature was determined. Opponents of Muslim nationalism have been trying to eradicate or completely change the cultural life of Muslims on the subcontinent by destroying it.
Muslims were oppressed in various ways. Mountains of misery and hardship fell on them. But Muslims have continued to live in poverty, political and educational life. Every nation in the world has perpetuated its national identity and its cultural life. The national identity of the Muslims of the subcontinent has been in danger at every moment and every moment. Therefore, the Muslim leaders thought that they could live their lives in a separate country according to Islamic traditions. Therefore, a common policy was needed to acquire land for a separate region. Therefore, it is clear that the policy itself was the cause of Pakistan. The ideology of Pakistan was the plan. Using which Pakistan came into existence. The ideology of Pakistan was the strategy whose practical form is called Pakistan. Because Pakistan is an ideological state, its survival and security lies in the survival of its ideology.
The ideology of any nation in the world is a mirror of its thoughts, feelings, desires and aspirations. As far as the ideology of the Muslim nation of the subcontinent is concerned. It can be said that its basis is neither in geographical or territorial boundaries nor in all ethnic relations. The only identity of this nation is its religion. Islam is the cause of the Muslim nation and the creation of Pakistan also took place in the name of Islam. Thus there is a deep resemblance between Islam and Pakistan. As far as Quaid-e-Azam is concerned, he has also declared Islam as the first principle of Pakistan's ideology. Which is the basis of nationalism and patriotism of Muslims. According to the ideology of Pakistan, the solution to the political, cultural, social and cultural problems of Muslims lies in Islam. Pakistan is also based on the philosophy of Islam and this is the guarantee of its existence and stability. In the light of the ideology of Pakistan, when Islam is recognized as the basic force and power, then colour, race, language, region, civilization and other elements are negated. It is commendable that the Government of Pakistan is engaged in efforts to introduce the Islamic system under the ideology of Pakistan and it is striving to make Pakistan an Islamic welfare state.
