Pakistan came into being as a sovereign Muslim state in August
1947 on the basis of an ideology i.e. ‘Two-nation Theory’. With the advent
of British and failure of Indian War of Independence in 1857, Indians
(Hindus & Muslims) triggered a political struggle to attain emancipation
from the British rule. In the beginning, all political leaders, Muslims and
Hindus struggled for independence of United India; however, with the
passage of time, and experiencing the Hindu facet, the prolific Muslim
leaders transformed their political philosophy from Indian nationalism to
Muslim separatism. This voyage proved to be the decisive factor in the
attainment of a separate homeland for Muslims of Subcontinent. In less
than fifty years (between 1880 to 1930) three loftiest Muslim leaders; Sir
Syed Ahmed Khan (1917-1898), Allama Dr Muhammad Iqbal (1877-1938)
and Muhammad Ali Jinnah (1876-1948), starting their political career as
staunch Indian nationalists ended up as the Muslim separatists, thereby
paving a way towards the creation of Pakistan. In this study, the political
philosophy of Allama Iqbal & Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah andthe said transformation need to be analysed in the political milieu as well
as annals of succeeding events / attitudes to determine it a vital factor
towards the attainment of an independent state.
