Title: "Pakistan Journey from 14 August 1947 to 14 August 2024 and Our Responsibilities"

Dear readers, on August 14, 1947, in the blessed month of Ramadan, Allah blessed the Muslims of India with an independent Islamic state of Pakistan. It was known that due to being a Hindu majority area, there was no hope of their joining Pakistan, but they were seen playing a significant role in the freedom struggle, at that time only faith in God and sincere intentions made them a nation, East Pakistan. And despite the distance of thousands of miles in West Pakistan, brotherhood and a nationality were seen. 

Just because they would like to stay hungry in a country where there is Islam and then after the formation of Pakistan, the British and the Hindus together created such problems for Pakistan that Pakistan would not have existed if the country was not safe. Could have stayed because somewhere the problem of distribution of canal water was created, somewhere the problems of distribution of assets were created, somewhere the way of Kashmir was given to India under bad faith and conspiracy in the Radcliffe Award and so long in the distribution of the army. It was said that when Pakistan was formed, the army of the part of Pakistan was still in India and the situation in Pakistan was so bad that the government did not have the money to pay the salaries to the government employees and the Nawabs of the states paid the salaries to the government employees. On the one hand, the government of Pakistan helped in the payment of such bad conditions and on the other hand, problems like resettlement of millions of refugees, but by the grace and grace of Allah, our forefathers, working with sincere efforts and passion, not only controlled all these problems. Rather, in the early years, Pakistan also made historical progress economically, but the enemy was also watching us, and the enemy instilled hatred against Pakistan in the minds of children through Hindu teachers in East Pakistan to destroy our beloved country. At the same time, in the early years, the enemy put the slogan of making Bangla the official language in the minds of our innocent brothers and started working on far-reaching plans, but the people of West Pakistan did not realize the seriousness of this problem. It was too late to notice and the hatred grew.

The problem of Kashmir which was created by the Radcliffe Award, the Mujahideen of Pakistan gave a befitting reply to the enemy and liberated half of Kashmir from the Hindus and it was close that the rest of Kashmir would have been liberated by Pakistan as well. India promised a referendum in the United Nations. A ceasefire was established through the United Nations. Here, the seriousness of the problem can be estimated from the fact that at that time, General Gracey, the Army Chief of Pakistan, did not obey the Quaid-e-Azam’s orders regarding Kashmir, despite this, Pakistan liberated half of Kashmir. It is our misfortune that our most sincere leader Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah left this mortal world shortly after the creation of Pakistan and went to the true Creator and Nawabzada Liaquat Ali Khan was also martyred and a sincere leader like Khawaja Nazimuddin was made the Governor General. The powers were not allowed to be used as the prime minister and the constitution was delayed in the country. A new temptation came in the form of Qadianism and the biggest thing is that despite being independent, our country’s administration completely followed the British. Our own people adopted the same intimidating attitude and our own people started the work of looting the resources and transferring their resources to other countries.

But God’s grace on us was that when we faced problems, God gave us opportunities. In 1965, when India started a war to occupy Pakistan, we once again emerged as a nation. Came and our sleeping spirits woke up again and the whole nation became an army and the enemy was completely defeated. During this period we started big projects like Tarbela and Mangala Dam and gave universities like Quaid-e-Azam and Punjab University 1700 acres per university. We also gave aid to countries like Korea and Indonesia during this period, but unfortunately we could not understand the enemy’s intentions, due to which we remained very irresponsible despite the plans of the enemy and we did not help our East Pakistani brothers. It did nothing to end the growing hatred in the hearts and the worst day in our history was 16th December 1971 when East Pakistan seceded from us and the Indian Prime Minister had the opportunity to say that we have abandoned the two nation theory in the Bay of Bengal. This is a great tragedy in our history from which we need to learn lessons even today.

After that, at the time of Russia’s invasion of Afghanistan, there were threats that Russia could occupy our Balochistan to access warm waters after Afghanistan, due to which we had to fight the war in Afghanistan and through this Jihad in Afghanistan, Russia We tore it into pieces and made the Muslim regions in Russia separate independent Islamic countries, but our beloved country had to pay a heavy price for it and we are still paying the price in our country.

Let's pray and hope for a bright future.
