The relationship between Muhammad Ali Jinnah and Fatima Jinnah was a rare bond of affection, based on love, respect and sacrifice.

She was not only his sister but also his closest companion and confidant, who walked with him step by step through every stage of success and trial. Fatima Jinnah’s presence was a source of comfort and encouragement to Muhammad Ali Jinnah in the relentless struggle for the establishment of Pakistan, while her loyalty and unwavering faith were of immense value to Jinnah Sahib.

Theirs was not just a brother-sister relationship, but a partnership of hearts and ideas, bound together by a common dream of freedom. In history, these two are shining examples of how family ties can give rise to greatness and change the destiny of a nation.

Founding members of the All India Muslim League | White Star

On March 23, 1940, the Pakistan Resolution was passed by the All-India Muslim League's annual session in Lahore. Looking back over the fifty years that have elapsed since that day, one is left with a whole host of mixed feelings. Does the truncated Pakistan of today with its unending cycle of ethnic animosities, it’s mortgaged economy, its opportunist politics and the perpetual shadow of dictatorship hovering over it bear any resemblance at all to the ideals of the movement that gave birth to the country?

To understand the Pakistan Movement and its ideals, it is essential to place the upsurge of Muslim Nationalism at the time in its context.

The hot topic at the time was the place of the Muslims in Indian politics- a subject that provoked a great deal of passionate debate. This was the time when Mohammad Ali Jinnah -subsequently the Quaid-e-Azam -made his famous marathon address in the Strachey Hall of Aligarh University. Although the speech was only partly understood at the time, the effect it had on those present was profound.

This was, in fact, the first lecture -cum-speech delivered by Jinnah after t he passage of the Pakistan Resolution. In it he expounded the theoretical basis for demanding the division of India, a demand that later came to be known as Muslim Nationalism.

Quaid’s School, Sindh Madrasa-tul-Islam, Karachi.
Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah attended his early schooling in Sindh Madrasa-tul-Islam. In 1882, when Jinnah was six, he was enrolled in the Sindh Madrasa-tul-Islam. Jinnah was indifferent to his studies and preferred to play outdoors with his friends. In 1887, Jinnah Poonja bhai’s only sister came to visit from Bombay and took her nephew to Bombay where he joined Gokal Das TejPal Primary School. He remained in Bombay for only six months and returned to Karachi upon his mother’s insistence and again joined the Sind Madrassa-tul-Islam. But his name was struck off as he frequently cut classes in order to ride his father’s horses.
