AIMS AND OBJECTIVES FOR THE ESTABLISHEMENT OF PAKISTAN

The idea of Pakistan was based on the fact that Muslims were a separate nation having their own culture, civilization, customs, literature, religion and way of life. They cannot be merged in any other nation because their philosophy of life based on the principles of Islam. As the Indian Muslims found it difficult to live according to principles of Islam in United India. They were forced to demand a separate homeland to safeguard their vested interested, religious, economic and political.Two nation theory is the pedestal on which Pakistan came into existence, that is Muslims on the Indian subcontinent is their religion, rather than their language or ethnicity, and therefore Indian Hindus and Muslims are two distinct nationalities, regardless of ethnic or other commonalities. Following factors can be said to be aims and objectives for the establishment of Pakistan:

Enforcement of the sovereignty of the God almighty:

Sovereignty of God means all things are under God's rule and control, and that nothing happens without His direction or permission. God works not just some things but all things according to the counsel of His own will. His purposes are all-inclusive and never thwarted; nothing takes Him by surprise. The sovereignty of God is not merely that God has the power and right to govern all things, but that He does so, always and without exception. The Islamic state is built up on the concept of the sovereignty of the God Almighty. The prime objective of the demand for Pakistan was the establishment of a state where Almighty God's supremacy could be enforced. The Quad-e-Azam said that:"We did not demand Pakistan to acquire a piece of land, but we wanted a homeland where we could introduce Islamic principles."

Establishment of Islamic democracy:

Islam has given an ideal concept off democracy which is distinctively different from the western concept. In Islam democratic system everyone is equal and no one enjoys a privileged position on the basis of his social status. One of the main objectives of the freedom movement was that the Muslims of the sub-continent wanted a country where the ideal system of Islamic democracy could be installed. The Quaid -e- Azam said:"It is my belief that our salvation lies in the following golden rules of conduct is given by our great law giver, the Prophet of Islam. Let us lay the foundations of our

democratic system on Islamic ideas and principles. The almighty has taught us that our decisions in the state affairs shall be mutual consultation." He also said: "Islam and its idealism have taught democracy. Islam has taught equality, justice and fairplay to everybody. What reason is their for anyone to fear democracy, equality, freedom on the highest standard of integrity and on the basis of fairplay and justice for everybody..Let us make it (the future constitution of Pakistan), We shall make it and we shall show it to the world."

Establishment of a balanced economic system:

The economic condition of the Muslims, before partition, was deplorable. The Hindus had monopolized commerce and trade. The Muslims were not in a position to enter in the business and trade because of biased policy of government. After the war of Independence of 1857, the British Government had banned Muslims entry into government service.The Muslims also lagged behind in the field of education, the Hindus on the other hand had advanced in modern knowledge and were in a better position.
