Sumario:According to the author, some ideologues of Pakistan would like to maintain that Pakistan was primarily created for establishing an Islamic state in the Indian sub-continent.

Jinnah, Maulana Mandudi and Zia to islamise Pakistan society to the thoughts of Maulana Azad and Maulana Madani who stressed universalism and composite nationalism. (DÜI-Sen)
