Did Quaid-e-Azam want a secular Pakistan or not? | کیا قائداعظم سیکولر پاکستان چاہتے تھے یا نہیں؟

Muhammad Ali Jinnah, also known as Quaid-e-Azam (Urdu for "Father of the Nation"), was the founder of Pakistan. His vision for Pakistan's political and social structure is a matter of interpretation.
Jinnah's views on secularism and the role of religion in the state are debated among historians and scholars. Some argue that Jinnah advocated for a secular Pakistan, while others believe he envisioned an Islamic state.
Here are some points to consider:
Secular arguments:
1. Jinnah's speeches and statements often emphasized the importance of separating religion from the state.
2. In his famous August 11, 1947, address to the Constituent Assembly, Jinnah said, "You are free; you are free to go to your temples, you are free to go to your mosques or to any other place of 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."
3. Jinnah appointed a Hindu, Jogendra Nath Mandal, as the first Minister of Law and Labour in Pakistan, indicating his commitment to a inclusive and secular government.
Islamic arguments:
1. Jinnah was a Muslim and drew inspiration from Islamic principles and values.
2. He believed that Islam was not just a religion but a way of life, and that Pakistan should be an Islamic state governed by Islamic principles.
3. Some of Jinnah's statements, like his 1943 speech in which he said, "Pakistan is not a country to be founded for Hindus or Muslims or Christians, but for Muslims, and it will be an Islamic State," suggest an Islamic state was his vision.
- Jinnah's own words:
- "Pakistan is not a country to be founded for Hindus or Muslims or Christians, but for Muslims, and it will be an Islamic State." (1943)
- "The Constitution of Pakistan will be based on Islamic principles." (1946)
- Islamic influences:
- Jinnah was deeply influenced by Islamic teachings and the Islamic political tradition.
- He believed that Islam was a comprehensive way of life, encompassing political, social, and economic aspects.
- Objectives Resolution (1949):
- This document, passed by the Constituent Assembly, declared Pakistan an Islamic State and emphasized the role of Islam in guiding the country's laws and policies.
- Jinnah's sister, Mohtarma Fatima Jinnah, played a key role in its passage.
- Jinnah's support for Islamic laws:
- He advocated for the implementation of Shariah (Islamic law) in Pakistan.
- He believed that Islamic laws would provide a just and equitable society.
- Pakistan's national identity:
- Jinnah saw Pakistan as a homeland for Muslims, where they could live according to their faith and values.
- He believed that Islam would be the foundation of Pakistan's national identity and unity.
