The fact is: Pakistan is a failed state and lately the Panama Papers only bolster the long standing image of a "corrupt state". Not to mention other labels or myths such as a "terrorist state". A reflection on how to get Pakistan out of this failed/corrupt status should always be welcomed as a first step in a conversation to finding a solution.

If Urdu is our mother tongue, it will stick. And we will simply be bi/multi-lingual. The point here is to put emphasis on Arabic (Quranic Arabic to make it even simpler as Quranic Arabic is a subset of Arabic) as it holds the key to understanding Islam inside out. And Pakistan being a nation founded on Islam will benefit from prioritizing for Arabic. Retain Urdu by all means. Just don't regret if our kids are brought up speaking nothing but English. Teach them Arabic. And Urdu too be all means. Or any other language. Kids can be multi-lingual much easier.<br /><br />Mind you, people of Qureish were native Arabic speakers. Expert linguists and great poets. But not all of them converted to Islam. However they all understood Quran well - A portion of them simply chose to deny it out of arrogance, not ignorance of Arabic. So, after learning Arabic, we still have to take the next step - choose the right path. Only this time we won't be at the mercy of a cleric. Luckily we have the eagerness to choose the right path. Just need that knowledge that has gone amiss. The knowledge of the language will help us understand the Word of God directly. And, we hope and pray that it helps illuminate the straight path for all of us.

Their hypocrisy has caused this trust to be transferred to oppressed people worldwide more sincere in their struggle for Islam.<br /><br />If Pakistanis are sincere they will transcend nationalism and associate with them and learn from them.Ibn Masoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04944887467619490751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1037726792996816279.post-62286140885805102362016-05-13T01:01:22.569+04:002016-05-13T01:01:22.569+04:00The government of the Kuffar of Makkah was very po...The government of the Kuffar of Makkah was very powerful in their day.

May not be able to know and understand ever. Majority of mankind is illetrate. Arabic will make them dumb. Arabs do not understand and practice Arabic Religion. The author may re visit his writing. He seems to be a confusedperson. Mankind need allies in all walks of life. The writer is self centred.He must follow the modern tools of communications.

Specially when it calls for abandoning our national language URDU and asking our generation to learn only Arabic. It is far from being realistic, moreover, if learning Arabic is the solution then why all those Arab nations are suffering and are in worse condition than us?<br /><br />This passage also unjustly criticizes the role of Deoband.
