Assuming you change your past and work together in a spirit that every one of you, regardless of to what local area he belongs, regardless of what relations he had with you in the past, regardless of what his tone, caste, or ideology, is first, second and last a resident of this State with equal rights, privileges, and obligations, there will be no limit to the progress you will make - Muhammad Ali Jinnah.

Today, we must recall what Quaid-e-Azam wanted from this great nation. Jinnah was a handsome man with a dazzling personality; a prominent lawyer, possessing an impeccable character and an irreproachable reputation. Perhaps his proverb of "Faith, Unity, and Discipline" can be a first step that may end up being a giant leap; it has such profundity to it. As we affectionately recall and salute our father, who got us our personality and opportunity as well as a place called Pakistan, the best we can do is pray for his high status in heaven and carry out his principles and teachings. We can learn and teach others about Quaid-e-Azam, about his principles and his life.

Quaid-e Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah was brought into the world in Karachi on December the 25th, 1876 at Vazeer Mansion Karachi. He got his early education in Karachi and Bombay. He did his barrister from England. He saw the name of Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) on the highest point of the gate of Lincoln's Inn and he chose to study there. Since the early days of his childhood, he was always a neat and pleasant kid. He was very respectful, punctual, and disciplined. He was a conceived leader and had all the essentials for a leader since his experience growing up.

After his return, Jinnah started his practice as a barrister. He enlisted in the All India National Congress in 1906. He attended interestingly a gathering of the All India Muslim League in 1912. Later he joined the All India Muslim League in 1913. The third political party he joined was the Home Rule League. He was an individual from both the Congress and the Muslim League at the same time. Initially, he remained working with the Hindu leaders of Congress. He was given the title of "Ambassador of Hindu Muslim Unity" by noticeable politicians. With the passage of time, he realized that the Hindu leaders of Congress have a different agenda. He left Congress and became completely involved with Muslim League.

Jinnah had originally been dubious about the practicability of Pakistan, an idea that Sir Muhammad Iqbal had propounded to the Muslim League gathering of 1930; however in a little while he became convinced that a Muslim homeland on the Indian subcontinent was the main way of safeguarding Muslim interests and the Muslim way of life. At the point when the Muslim League finally chose to have a separate country for Muslims of the subcontinent, it was the leadership of Jinnah that drove the nation to achieve this goal. Because of these leadership qualities and his firm stand on the issue, On March 23, 1940, Jinnah presided over a Muslim League session at Lahore, where the first official demand was made for the partition of India and the creation of the state of Pakistan, where Muslims would be a majority. During three decades of political life, Jinnah had believed in the possibility of Hindu-Muslim solidarity, and it was with the utmost reluctance that he came to the view that partition was essential.

Britishers tracked down no real way to dismiss the demand of Muslims of the subcontinent for a separate homeland. fourteenth August 1947 was the day when we got our Homeland Pakistan. He made a vow as the first governor general on August 15, 1947, from Mr. Justice Mian Abdur Rasheed. It was his struggle and hard work and ability to lead us that made a dream materialize. Maulana Mazhar-ud-racket was the first person who gave the title "Quid-e-Azam to Mr. Jinnah first time.

It was, therefore, with a sense of supreme satisfaction at the satisfaction of his mission that Jinnah told the nation in his last message on 14 August 1948:

"The foundations of your State have been laid and it is presented for you to endlessly work as fast and as well as you can". In accomplishing the task he had taken upon himself on the morrow of Pakistan's introduction to the world, Jinnah had worked himself to death, yet he had, to cite Richard Symons, "offered more than any other man to Pakistan's survival".

The Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, who changed the destiny of the Muslims of the South-Asia Subcontinent, breathed his last on 11 September 1948 at Ziarat near Quetta. He was covered in Karachi. The Quaid was seventy-one when Pakistan was conceived. He was spared by Almighty just for one year to set the ship of the new State on its fall.

Pakistan was based on sure foundations of social justice and Islamic socialism which emphasized equality and brotherhood; the great ideals of human progress, tolerance, regard, and respect for each other's faith and beliefs. The achievement of Pakistan was a daring feat; a struggle against all odds yet it was just the Quaid-e-Azam who makes it possible for a separate homeland for Muslims. Pakistan's major tragedy has been its inability to create a leader of Jinnah's caliber and the failure of successive governments to emulate his example. Assuming that we keep our Quaid guidelines we would have been an exemplary nation.

An important message for the students at Aligarh in 1942 in which Quaid said: "Develop your character that is more than all the degrees and no character is a simple wastage of time. You should develop a sharp sense of honor and obligation." Jinnah said these words yet what is their meaning? It means that trust in Allah and then our character will be automatically developed. Quaid said in his speech that to develop a sharp sense of honor and obligation, to develop Pakistan. It's the obligation of every Muslim to develop a sharp sense of distinction in the spirit of the Pakistan movement.

In my personal view, I take him as a person with an immaculate personality, the best leader, a great organizer, a vigorous speaker, an orator, and a man with complete honor and grace. I still hear the quotes of Jinnah roaring into my head and making me feel pleased with a main devoted to his personal life however drove the world to realize that such People are conceived unique. So we the fortunate ones had him and still honor him. Our Quaid had also given a very beautiful message 'Work Work'. Being a student we must follow him and can still learn and grasp our destiny and realize his dreams. Also, the Pakistani nation is something to accomplish for Pakistan, not the outsider's something does for Pakistan. We exist with the existence of Pakistan. We should buckle down for the progress of Pakistan. It's the obligation of every youngster to try sincerely and make Pakistan a prosperous Country in the world.

Allah blesses our Quaid’s soul and keeps Pakistan under his protection – Ameen The National Anthem Blessed be the sacred Land Happy be the bounteous realm Symbol of high resolve Land of Pakistan Blessed be thou citadel of faith The order of this sacred land Is the might of the brotherhood of the People May the nation, the country, and the state Shine in glory everlasting Blessed be the goal of our ambition This Flag of the Crescent and Star Leads the way to progress and perfection Interpreter of our past, the glory of our present Inspiration for our future Symbol of Almighty’s protection
