Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) laid the foundation of Islamic society in the city of Madina. It was an exemplary society on earth where different tribes lived together without any prejudice. And of course prejudice does not have any place in Islam. Because Allah says in Quran "Hold the rope of Islam with strong hands and do not get divided���.
Pakistan is from one of the very few countries of the world, who came into being on religious basis. Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah always stressed to have a land where we could practice the teachings of Islam. As Islam is the complete code of life which encompasses Private, Matrimonial, Social, Cultural, Political, Economical, Physical and Government of the Man and Society. Islam has the solution of all our problems in the light of Holy Quran and Prophetic Sunnah. 1947, when Pakistan came into being, only in first two months, almost 15 million people from India migrated to Pakistan. These Pakistanis were from different sects but the most important thing was that they were all Muslims. These people were patriotic Pakistanis and their aim was to build a greater, better and stronger Pakistan.
Initially the curse of "Sectarianism��� was not there in newly born Pakistan but later on such incidents started happening. If we look at last 20 years we will come to know that we have lost a large number of religious scholars, which is really a big loss not only for Pakistan but also for Muslim Nation.
Dr. Ghulam Murtaza, Moulana Abdullah ,Allam Hassan Tarabi, Allam Shoaib Nadeem, Maulana Azam Tariq and the most recent Mufti Naeemi , are a few names which were like an asset for whole Muslim Nation but unfortunately we lost them. Particularly the decade of 1980 to 1990 was the worst. Although it is reduced now but still our enemies want to blow this fire in Pakistan.
This is an open secret that today Pakistan is at the very crucial stage of his history. Our enemies from all directions are trying their best to burn such fire which can cause a greater causality for Pakistan. As a Nation we have already suffer a lot and still we are suffering from lot of internal and external issues on domestic and international levels. In this critical situation we cannot afford to have the curse of "Sectarianism��� in our dear Motherland.
This idea is now very much clear to us that no one wants to have sectarianism in Pakistan. People from all sects want to see peace in society. We should not forget the Islam is the religion of Peace. Islam was not spread by force and it has amnesty even for enemies. Even during the war it reserves the human rights. How come it is possible that a follower of Islam (Muslim) can torture or slaughter his own Muslim Brother?
Now is the right time for us to come ahead and identify such black sheep in our society. We should remember that we are all Muslim, no matter what cast or sect we are from? So let us come ahead, let us move forward and let us get rid of such evils in our society. We need to have a broader vision which can accept people from different sects. That is the only way to compete as a competent nation of the world. We need to have tolerance, patience and flexibility in our ideas. West is doing his best to paint a horrible picture of Muslim Nation but we need to bring unity across the nation to walk head to head with them. That is the only way left behind"¦"¦"¦"¦We do not have any other choice but"¦"¦"¦"¦to get united to fight against all those who want to divide and rule our society. InshaAllah together we can make the difference and together we will make it. Let is move forward and take the initiative.................................GOD BLESS US ALL.
