How many nations and why.
i hope not
The Two Nation Theory was important in the context of the Indian independence movement as it argued that Hindus and Muslims were two separate nations with distinct identities, cultures, and interests, and therefore deserved separate nation-states. This theory was a key driving force behind the creation of Pakistan as a homeland for Muslims in South Asia during the partition in 1947.
The basis of ideology of Pakistan is known as "Two Nation Theory" which means that Muslims and Hindu are two separate nations with different culture, language, values and norms and therefore, there should be a separate homeland for Muslims.
Pakistan got independence on the basis of Two Nation Theory according to which Muslims and Hindus were two separate nations and couldn't live together. I think there is no confusions in the minds of Pakistani Muslims.
Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, in the attempt of representing the Muslims in India, proposed the theory that stated that Hindus and Muslims were two entirely separate communities. So, the Muslims have all the rights to establish a different nation of their own to safeguard their rights in an India, divided. This theory formed the very basis of the division of United India into- India and Pakistan.
No one demanded a separate nation for Muslims. Muslims never felt that they are a separate nation. They are, and should be by religion requirements, an integral and active part in any community they belonging even if they are a minority in this community.The Muslim is called, by religion, to be everywhere considering the both wings of Islam religion;the first wing is to keep performing the ritual worships, andthe second wing is to keep performing good deeds to the benefit of himself, family, community, and mankind.As no bird can fly conveniently with only one wing or with one wing weaker than the other, Muslim can't be welcomed in the Heavens unless he is keeping good balance of the two Islam wings.Looking around, one finds good examples of Muslims of different nationalities, almost in every country of the world, doing well for their community and doing well for humanity even in countries where they are a minority. To realize that never Muslims felt they are a separate nation, one may go back by his memory to the time when Muslims were in Spain and compare Muslims contributions in Spain when they were of control of the country and how the other side reacted when they took control of the country out of Muslims there. One may recall the contributions of Muslims to the development of various sciences for the benefit of mankind (regardless religion, race or culture) and may look to their past and current contributions in the international institutions and in national communities, to realize that Muslims never feel they are an isolated nation or demand a separate nation.
The new country created in 1947 was Pakistan. Pakistan was established as a separate nation from India to provide a homeland for Muslims in the region, following the partition of British India.
It is not true. The Muslims wanted a separate homeland in India because they feared that after the British left India, there would be Hindu Raj in India. Thus it would not be Freedom for the Muslims. It would be just the change of the Rulers. The Muslims were in majority in Bengal, the Punjab, Sindh, Baluchistan and North West Frontier Province. They were a separate nation with their own distinct religion, culture and traditions. They struggled hard to establish a separate homeland and succeeded in their struggle for freedom when Pakistan came into being on 14th August, 1947.
Sir Syed Ahmad Khan is often regarded as the father of the Two-Nation Theory because of his advocacy for the distinct political and social identity of Muslims in India during the 19th century. He emphasized the cultural and religious differences between Hindus and Muslims, arguing that these differences warranted a separate political identity for Muslims. His efforts in promoting modern education among Muslims and establishing institutions like the Aligarh Muslim University laid the groundwork for a separate Muslim identity, which later influenced the demand for Pakistan. Thus, his ideas were foundational in shaping the political discourse that led to the Two-Nation Theory.
Yes, it was to a great extend successful for the reniansce of muslims as it emerged more f a reforming institute then acadamic. future leaders like liaquat ali khan studied in the aligarh college. two-nation theory made muslims realize that were a separate nation and eventually laid roots fr pakistani movement.
The Muslims do not have a pope.
Pakistan was founded on the basis of Two Nation Theory according to which Muslims and Hindus couldn't live together in a single country because they had different religions, different civilizations and heritage. On March 23, 1940 they (Muslims of undivided India) resolved to struggle for their separate homeland. At that time India was ruled by Britain. Muslims of subcontinent succeeded in winning their separate country on August 14, 1947.
