Tomb of Quaid-e-Azam

"Although without Gandhi, Hindustan would still have gained Independence, and without Lenin and Mao,  Russia and China, would still have endured Commu nist revolution. Without Jinnah, there would have been no Pakistan in 1947."
-John Biggs- Davison

Indeed, we Pakistanis, wouldn't have been breathing so freely on our Motherland if it wasn't for Quaid-e-Azam (R.A).
Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah, a man of excellence exceeded every critical situation with intelligence and courage. His figure and personality depicted what he was capable of.

"A most accomplished lawyer, outstanding amongst Indian lawyers, and a fine constitutionalist." - Sir Stafford Cripps

Born on 25th December 1876, leading an excellent cause his entire life, he breathed his last on 11th of September, 1948.

Jinnah was given the title, "Quaid-e-Azam" which means, "Leader of a Nation," and "Baba-i-Qaum," which means, "The Father of a Nation."

He was the leader and father of a Muslim Nation by passion.
A Lawyer and a Politician by profession. The leader, who knew his sense of direction. A Politician, who knew how to ace his field of politics and a Barrister, who knew nothing other than Justice that ought to be served to the people.

His sister was none the less than any Great Woman. She worked shoulder to shoulder with him and was also a source of the successful formation of Pakistan.

A man of strong faith, and ultimate motivation for youngsters and adults alike. Quaid's wordings, instilled a new spirit of enthusiasm in the youth, at the time of Independence, and in the life hereafter. His quotes are still there for the world to reflect upon.

He used to say, “I do not believe in taking the right decision, I take a decision and make it right.”

He always motivated students to study and work hard and asked them to stay away from Politics. He was and still is a role model for all age groups. His dedication towards achieving his aim was exceptional. His skills were admirable, before and hereafter. He's my hero, our Nation's hero. A legend, who has a special place in our hearts.

Remembering Quaid on his death anniversary saddens me to believe, that my leader left the world early, just after a year of the formation of Pakistan. The cause of his death was Tuberculosis, which worsened over time as he worked hard day and night, without even caring for his health, to see the Muslims breathe on their own liberal land.

"Gandhi died by the hands of an assassin; Jinnah died by his devotion to Pakistan." -Lord Pethick Lawrence

But I want you to know, in fact, the whole world knows, he's a Legend and legends don't die. His hard work bore fruit and made us stand strong and confident, in the face of the world. Pakistan, the land of pure, is only standing still because of Muhammad Ali Jinnah.

Muhammad Ali Jinnah

Pakistan is a country that came into being after a lot of hardships and sacrifices by its Muslim nation. Pakistani nation should never forget this, and should never let all the sacrifices go in vain.

The British and Hindu, both admired the personality of Quaid-e-Azam (R.A). He was a man worth admiring, indeed.

"Few individuals significantly alter the course of history. Fewer still modify the map of the world. Hardly anyone can be credited with creating a nation-state. Mohammad Ali Jinnah did all three." -Prof. Stanley Wolpert

The Subcontinent became a Wild Arena after the British took over it and declared their rule on it. It was an Arena, where the strong and wealthy could escape the rule and roam freely without any worries, always lurking over the heads of minorities. The minorities were treated like Animals by the majorities. There was no life to live for the poor. The rich ruled the lands. Injustice was a natural phenomenon in the Sub-continent.

"Expect the best, Prepare for the worst." -Quaid

In the starting of conflict, between the Hindus and Muslims, Jinnah wanted to see a Peaceful Subcontinent, love between Hindu and Muslim community, but after getting to know the false strategies, being set up by the defaulters against Muslims, he became convinced that Muslims and Indians could never become one Nation. He never stood by injustice or cruelty. His only aim as a Barrister was to implement Justice.

The Hindu leaders, along with the British, never wanted to see an independent land for Muslims. They tried a lot, to falsify the truths told by the Muslim leaders in the Courts.

However, despite all the ordeals set against the Muslims, they could never stop the creation of an Independent land for them. Since Muslims had the support of Jinnah, a man worthy of exceeding excellence in every possible way.

He is quoted as saying, "Failure is a word unknown to me."

Quaid was a man who accomplished his goals once he set them. The creation of an Independent state became his goal and he devoted his whole life to achieve it, which he ultimately did in the form of Pakistan. He put this aim upfront, without even caring for his health.

"With faith, discipline, and selfless devotion to duty, there is nothing worthwhile that you cannot achieve." -Quaid

The Hindu leaders and British are quoted as saying that if they knew about the bad health condition of Quaid-e-Azam, Pakistan could never have come into existence.
He didn't even let the Muslim leaders know about his health condition, let alone the enemy. The only witness of his health condition was his sister and the doctor, who was treating him. He stood strong in the face of challenges coming his way, in the creation of a nation.

After the creation of Pakistan, he became the first Governor-General of Pakistan and initiated the successful opening of Bank and other institutions that would contribute to the success of Pakistan.

Indeed, we, Pakistanis, owe our lives to this sole aim Quaid left us with, of making Pakistan a successful and ideal nation.
We, especially the Pakistani youth, should follow the path, given to us by our Leader and we should never be led astray from making our state one of the outstanding ones.

"Think 100 times before you take a decision, But once that decision is taken, stand by it as one man."

It takes just a bit of confidence in oneself, a desire to make the world a better place for everyone. The human race is exceptional, capable of doing things out of bounds with just a pinch of courage. We ought to bring peace into the world.

Every national's aim should be to bring his nation amongst the best, without any greed, irrespective of creed.
