Pakistan Ideology was unique in the sense that is was based on an ideology which sorts
its roots deep in the religion of Islam. The famous slogan:
“Pakistan ka matlab kia, La Iaha Illallah”
Became the core of freedom movement and a solid base for ideology of a separate
homeland.
Ideology of Pakistan based on the Two Nation Theory which up holds that Hindus and
Muslims are two separate and distinct nations having their own culture, civilization,
literature, religion, and way of life, Muslims cannot merged with any other nation
because their philosophy of life is based upon the principles of Islam. The two nation
theory was presented by Sir Syed Ahmed khan.
Aims and objective of establishment of Pakistan
The main reason for the establishment of Pakistan is that Muslims wanted to enforce
supremacy of god and government of a new state should constitute on Islamic
principles. As The Quaid-e-Azam said: “We did not demand Pakistan for acquire a piece
of land but we wanted a home land where we could introduce Islamic Principles.”
Muslims also aimed to install the Islamic democracy in a new state. In Islamic democracy
everyone will be equal and no one is superior on the basis of color, race and creed.as
Quaid e Azam said that we want the democratic state which is based on Islamic ideas
and principles. And another reason for the demand of Pakistan was aimed to protecting
the Muslims from Hindu dominancy and revival of Muslims image and identity which
was in danger due to Hindus. As Muslims is separate nation so they want separate
country, where they spent their lives according to Islamic principles.
