wat is two nation theory ???

Answer 1

The Two-Nation Theory was the basis for the Partition of India in 1947. It stated that Muslims and Hindus were two separate nations by every definition, and therefore Muslims should have a separate homeland in the Muslim majority areas of British India, to enable them to live according to the teachings of Islam. The theory was rejected by many in India as many Indians, including Muslims, demanded a secular state which possessed diversity.

The ideology of Pakistan took shape through an evolutionary process, based on historical experience. Sir Syed Ahmad Khan began (1817-1898) the period of Muslim self-awakening; Allama Muhammad Iqbal (1877-1938), (the poet of East), provided the philosophical explanation; Muhammad Ali Jinnah (1876-1948) translated it into a political reality; and the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan passed the Objectives Resolution in March 1949 to give it legal sanction. The All-India Muslim League, in attempting to represent Indian Muslims, felt that the Muslims of the subcontinent were a distinct and separate nation from the Hindus. At first they demanded separate electorates, but when they came to the conclusion that Muslims would not be safe in a Hindu-dominated India, they began to demand a separate state. The basis for the separate state was neither territorial, racial, linguistic nor ethnic; but based on adherence to Islam. The League demanded self-determination for Muslim-majority areas in the form of a sovereign state. However, after partition, a majority of Muslims remained in the officially secular Hindu-majority India and some Hindus chose to remain in a Muslim-majority Pakistan over India[1], although most were forced out with fear of death if they did not leave.[2][3][4]

The evidence cited for the differences dates to the beginning of the eleventh century, when the scholar Al-Biruni (973-1048) observed that Hindus and Muslims differed in all matters and habits. Allama Iqbal's presidential address to the Muslim League on 29 December 1930 is seen as the first introduction of the two-nation theory in support of what would ultimately become Pakistan. Ten years later, Jinnah made a speech in Lahore on 22 March 1940 which was very similar to Al-Biruni's thesis in theme and tone. Jinnah stated that Hindus and Muslims belonged to two different religious philosophies, with different social customs and literature, with no intermarriage and based on conflicting ideas and concepts. Their outlook on life and of life was different and despite 1,000 years of history, the relations between the Hindus and Muslims could not attain the level of cordiality. The only difference between the writing of Al-Biruni and the speech of Jinnah was that Al-Biruni made calculated predictions, while Jinnah had history behind him to support his argument.
