60 years ago, our forefathers started a struggle of independence against imperial forces. After long struggle during which hundreds of thousands lost their lives and millions left their homes , at last they succeeded and created a homeland of their own and named it Pakistan.
What was the reason behind all this effort? ISLAM! Islam was the only reason and the only objective Muslims were fighting for. They wanted to live their lives according to Islam in a state of their own where they can practice their religion freely. They wanted to create an exemplary Islamic state.
On 14th august 1947, Muslims of South Asia were happy and hopeful that now Islam will prevail in this region because they have got their own land. But if we look at our country today, don't you think we have disappointed them? Is this what our forefathers wanted? Certainly not!
Pakistan is getting more and more unIslamic everyday. Constitutionally, no doubt, Pakistan is an Islamic Republic but practically we do not see any sign of it. Especially the social lives of Pakistani people have become very unIslamic under the umbrella of modern enlightenment. This is not completely the government's fault. The people themselves are also responsible for their declined morality. It is our duty to analyse ourselves and to mould our lives in an Islamic way. Nobody will come from moon to do it for us. WE have to do it ourselves.
