Two Nation Theory The phenomenon of Two-Nation theory originated with the advent of Islam in the Sub-Continent (712AD). Quaid-e-Azam once said: “Pakistan was created the day the first Indian national entered the field of Islam."

Ideology of Pakistan As in the beginning of the 11th century, Al-Biruni observed that Hindus differed from the Muslims in all matters and habits. He further elaborated his argument by writing that the Hindus considered Muslims "Mlachha", or impure. And they forbid having any connection with them, be it intermarriage or any other bond of relationship. They even avoid sitting, eating and drinking with them, because they feel "polluted".

Two Nation Theory Mahatma Gandhi, speaking in the second session of the Round table conference in London in 1931, said : “quarrel between Hindus and Muslims was ‘core view with the British advent’ in India. It would be difficult to maintain such a position historically because the conflict between Hindus and Muslims had started long before the emergence of the British power in India.”

Two Nation Theory . In an interview, the founder of Pakistan Muhammad Ali Jinnah said in 1944 “You must remember that Islam is not merely a religious doctrine(policy) but a realistic and practical code of conduct. I am thinking in terms of everything important in life. I am thinking in terms of our history, our heroes, our art, our architecture, our laws, our jurisprudence”.

Factors Creating the Idea of Separate Homeland Religious Differences Hindu Nationalism Cultural Differences Social Differences Economic Differences Educational Differences Political Differences

Religious Differences. Muslims: The religion of Muslims is Islam .Islam preaches Tawheed (oneness of Allah) , namaz , roza(keeping fast) , zakat, hajj, and believes in equality of man before law. Muslims are the believers of God, The Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) the Holy Book Quran and hold a cohesive(organized) approach towards life.

Religious Differences. Hindus: Hindus believe in Hinduism. Hinduism is based on the concept of multiple Gods. Their society follows a caste system and is divided into four classes and have a very narrow approach towards life.

Cultural Differences Muslim followed the Islamic culture while Hindus inherited a self build culture. The Hindus burnt their dead bodies while Muslims burried them. Hindus considered the 'Mother cow' as a sacred(holy) animal and worshiped it while Muslims slaughtered it.

Social Differences The two communities of the Sub Continent differ in their social life as well. The clothes, the foods, the household utensils, the layout of homes, the words of salutation(salam) etc…

Hindi Urdu Controversy (disagreemment) In 1867,Hindus demanded that Urdu should be written in Hindi Script instead of Persian script. This created another gap between Hindus and Muslims.
