    Assignment: 1
    Date: 04-03-2020
    Q. As a history what do you think,
    what were the reasons /factors
    behind the development of two nation
    theory?

    Al-Baruni recorded his ideas in 1001 AD in his famous book “Kitab-ul-hind” as” The Hindu
    society maintained this peculiar character over the centuries. Two societies, Hindus and Muslims
    like two streams have some times but never merged each following its separate course.”

    Factors:

    1. Religious differences
    2. Hindu Nationalism
    3. Culture differences
    4. Social Differences
    5. Language

    1- Religious Difference:
    Muslims are the believer of Allah, Holy Prophet (PBUH) and the
    messenger of Allah. Muslim firmly believes on the Holy book Quran and life
    hereafter. On the other side, Hindus believe in many Gods. They have thousand of
    Gods.

    2- Hindus Nationalism:
    A number of Hindu nationalist movements were started in the
    subcontinent that added fuel to the fire and increased the conflict between the two
    communities. The Hindu nationalist leaders totally ignored the great contribution of
    Muslims in the Indian society and push the Muslims on one side.
    3- Culture Differences:
    Muslim followed the Islamic culture and buried their dead
    bodies. Muslims slaughtered the cow and abhorred the tradition of ‘Sati.’ In Islam
    every human beings are equal. On the other side, Hindus inherited a self build culture
    and burnt their dead bodies. Hindus considered the mother cow as a sacred animal
    and they performed ‘Sati’ and worshipped.

    4- Social Differences:
    The two communities of the subcontinent differ in their social
    life. The clothes, foods , household utensils, construction of homes, word of
    greetings, the gestures and everything about them was different and immediately
    represented to the distinctive origin . The moral values, ethics and norms of both the
    communities are totally different.

    5- Language:
    Language of the Muslims was Urdu and it was written in Arabic script.
    Urdu language had the different in writing, thoughts of poetry, arts, painting and word
    of music. On the other side, Hindu language was spoken in Hindus and it was written
    in Sanskrit. Hindi language had its own way of writing in every art which is quite
    different from Urdu. Even this small differences lead to a stirring conflict between
    two nations.

    Sir Syed Ahmed Khan point of view:


    ‘I am convinced now that Hindus and Muslims could never become one nation as
    their religion and way of life was quite distinct from each other’.

    Quaid-e-Azam point of view:


    ‘Muslims are not a minority; they are one nation by every definition of the word
    nation. By all canons of international law we are a nation’.

    Allama Iqbal point of view:


    ‘India is a continent of human being belonging to different language and professing
    different religions … I, therefore demand the formation of a consolidated Muslim
    state in the best interest of the Muslims of India and Islam ‘.

    Conclusions:
    The conclusion came out that Muslims realized they would lose their religion and
    culture. Muslims understand that they were different from Hindus because its
    religions, culture, languages, political and social differences are totally different from
    Hindus. Muslims demand for separate homeland and place where they will be safe,
    secure and guarded. They demanded a place where they can practice their religion
    according to Quran, Hadith and Sunnah easily.
