Dear members, ever since I can recall there is a discussion in Pakistan about what should be the constitution of Pakistan,secular or shariat and we also hear that Quaid-Azam M.A. Jinnah wanted secular Pakistan.This is a fabrication by the rogue elements.
Khan Liaqat Ali Khan, the closest person to Quaid was the one under whose leadership this resolution was passed and read what it says.
Read it and send it to as many people as you can for common knowledge. I for one have never been taught any such thing in my school/college.

OBJECTIVES RESOLUTION OF PAKISTAN 1949

The Objectives Resolution was a resolution adopted on 12 March 1949 by the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan. The resolution, proposed by the Prime Minister, Liaquat Ali Khan, proclaimed that the future constitution of Pakistan would not be modelled entirely on a European pattern, but on the ideology and democratic faith of Islam.

The Objectives Resolution proclaimed the following principles:

Sovereignty belongs to Allah alone but He has delegated it to the State of Pakistan through its people for being exercised within the limits prescribed by Him as a sacred trust.
The State shall exercise its powers and authority through the chosen representatives of the people.
The principles of democracy, freedom, equality, tolerance and social justice, as enunciated by Islam, shall be fully observed.
Muslims shall be enabled to order their lives in the individual and collective spheres in accordance with the teachings of Islam as set out in the Qur'an and Sunnah.
Adequate provision shall be made for the minorities to freely profess and practice their religions and develop their cultures.
Pakistan shall be a federation.
Fundamental rights shall be guaranteed.
the judiciary shall be independent.[1]
The Objectives Resolution, which combines features of both Western and Islamic democracy, is one of the most important documents in the constitutional history of Pakistan. At the time it was passed, Liaquat Ali Khan called it "the most important occasion in the life of this country, next in importance only to the achievement of independence". It is included in the Annex of the current Constitution of Pakistan by virtue of Article 2A of the Constitution.[2]
