In the 1945 elections, Muslim League came up with a striking victory by winning all the 30 Muslim seats in the Central Legislative Assembly and 446 out of 495 Muslim seats in provinces. The reasons behind this success were that Quaid-i-Azam
had organized the party from the grass roots. Party branches increased after the 1937 elections, by mid 1938 membership numbers had increased dramatically. The chief ministers of Punjab and Bengal formally joined Muslim League. Mr. Jinnah led the election campaign himself addressing massive gatherings across the Indian provinces. League tickets were awarded to most suitable candidates and funds were disbursed wisely. ML also had gained experience in the by-elections
and the party now knew how to contest elections. Image of the party was restored when leadership shifted from aristocrats and princes to true leaders of the people.
The Congress rule from 1937-39 was also a nightmare for the Muslims facing religious restrictions and threat to their culture. During this period, Hindus provoked Muslims' indignation. The 1940's Pakistan Resolution proved a uniting force for the Muslims who were now thinking differently. Muslim League was now standing parallel to Congress. The election campaign was launched with the slogan of an independent Muslim state, even the areas were identified to be merged into the future Pakistan.
After failures of Gandhi-Jinnah
talks in 1944 and the Simla
Conference in 1945, the communal divide was much greater. The general election of 1946 was a litmus test to gauge the political divide in India. It was a referendum for the Muslims to be a separate nation; it had to confirm the existence of two separate nations in India. Therefore, Muslim voters were charged with emotions; men, women and students set examples of sacrifices and dedications. They played pivotal role in bringing ML with surprising victory.
Firstly the Muslims were in minority.
Secondly, the Muslims were disunited with no management.
Thirdly, the Muslims were not experienced in elections so they needed to improve their planning.
Fourthly, the Muslims did not yet feel threatened by Hindu domination.
The results of the election were shocking for the Muslims of India and Muslim league which could not get mentionable support from the voters. Congress got clear majority in Madras,Bihar ,Orissa, United provinces and central provinces. The Muslim League failed to win considerable support. It managed to get few seat in Muslim minority provinces but failed in Muslim majority areas
The Muslim League wished to prove that it was the only true representative of the Muslims of India.
It was mostly
due to the organizational problems and opposition by local Muslim groups.

There were several weaknesses that were common to all of the Muslim empires. Some of the weaknesses included failure to recognize the power of the people and succession of bad leaders among others.
Indian territory was divided into two independent Muslim and Hindu countries.
NOT NECESSARILY. Belief in Allah is a necessary, but insufficient condition to be a Muslim. The primary statement of belief in Islam is the Shahaada and the Shahaada has two components: (1) There is no god but Allah AND (2) Muhammad is His Messenger. Failure to believe in Muhammad's prophecy means that the person in question is not actually a Muslim.
The four Caliphs who ruled after prophet Muhammad death came to power through election. The election system was that the group of Muslim leaders (who are recognized with their sincerity and devotion to Islam and Muslims) select one and then the people agree on him by what is called "Mobai'a". If accepted by the majority, then he be the Caliph and all Muslims, who agreed and who didn't, will be supporting him.
