Q.2. Explain the Two Nation Theory.
Meaning of Two Nation Theory
The Two Nation Theory is its simplest way means the cultural, political, religious, economic and social dissimilarities between the two major communities, Hindus and Muslims of the Sub Continent. These differences of out look, in fact, were greatly instrumental in giving rise to to two distinct political ideologies which were responsible for the partition of India into two independent states.
The Basis of the Creation of Pakistan
The Two Nation Theory was the basis of the struggle for creation of Pakistan which held that Hindus and Muslims are two separate nations. They in spite of living together for centuries could not forget their individual cultures and civilization. Al-Beruni recorded his ideas in 1001 A.D in his famous book “Kitab-ul-Hind” as
The Hindu society maintained this peculiar character over the centuries. The two societies, Hindus and Muslims, like two streams have sometimes touched but never merged, each following its separate course.
There are a few factors which split the inhabitants of the Sub Continent into two nations. Let us examine each of them separately.
1. Religious Difference The Hindus and Muslims belong to different religions. Islam preaches Tauheed (oneness of Allah) 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 approach towards life. Hinduism, on the other hand is based on the concept of multiple Gods. Their society follows a caste system and is divided into four classes and has a very narrow approach towards life.
2. Hindu Nationalism A number of Hindu nationalist movement, which emerged from time to time in the Indian history, added fuel to the fire by playing up the tension and antagonism which already existed between the two communities. The Hindu nationalist leaders totally ignored the great contribution made by the Muslims in the Indian society by way of promoting education and other social activities. Their writings and ideas flared up the communal discord between Hindus and Muslims to further pollute condition.
3. 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 animal and worshipped it while Muslims slaughtered it. They performed “Sati” while Muslims abhorred this tradition. The Hindus and Muslims do not intermarry nor they inter-dine.
4. 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, the gestures and every thing about them was different and immediately pointed to their distinctive origin.
5. Economic Differences After 1857, the Muslim economic was crushed and all trade policies were framed in such a way so as to detriment the Muslim condition. They were thrown out of Government services and their estates and properties were confiscated while the Hindus were provided with the ample opportunities to progress economically.
6. Educational Differences The Hindus had advanced in the educational field because they quickly and readily took to the English education while Muslims did not receive modern education which heavily affected their economic conditions.
7. Political Differences The political differences between the Hindus and Muslims have played an important role in the development and evolution of Two Nation Theory.
(i). Hindi Urdu Controvery In 1867, Hindus demanded that Urdu should be written in Hindi Script instead of Persian Script. This created another gap between Hindus and Muslims.
(ii). Congress Attitude The Indian National Congress was founded in 1885. It claimed to represent all communities of India but oppressed all Muslim ideas and supported the Hindus.
(iii). Partition of Bengal In 1905, the partition of Bengal ensured a number of political benefits for the Muslims, but the Hindus launched an agitation against the partition and partition was annulled in 1911.
8. Language The Muslim and Hindus wrote and spoke two different languages. The language of the former was Urdu and it was written in Arabic Script. On the other hand, the Hindi language was spoken by Hindus and it was written in Sanskrit. Urdu and Hindi language had the difference in writing, thoughts of poetry, arts, painting and words of music. Even this small difference led to a stirring conflict between the two nations.
Ssir Syed Ahmed – The Pioneer of Two Nation Theory The entire freedom movement revolved around the two nation theory which was introduced by Sir Syed Ahmed Khan. He considered all those lived in India as one nation and was a great advocate of Hindu-Muslim unity. Speaking at the meeting of nation and was a great advocate of Hindu-Muslim unity. Speaking at the meeting of nation and was a great advocate of Hindu-Muslim unity. Speaking at the meeting of Indian Association he said: “I look to both Hindus and Muslims with the same eyes and consider them as my own eyes. By the word ‘Nation’ I mean only Hindus and Muslims and nothing else. We Hindus and Muslims live together on the same soil under the same government. Our interests and problems are common, and therefore, I consider the two factions as one nation.” Two Nation Theory in the View of Allama Iqbal Allama Iqbal was the first important figure who propounded the idea of separate homeland on the basis of two nation theory. In the annual session of Muslim League at Allahabad in 1930, he said: “India is a continent of human beings belonging to different languages and professing different religions … I, therefore, demand the formation of consolidated Muslim state in the best interests of the Muslims of India and Islam.” Quaid-e-Azam’s Statement on Two Nation Theory He expounded the two nation’s theory in such detail that most Muslims and even some Hindus came to believe in its truth. He declared: “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.” Quaid-e-Azam reiterated that Hindus and Muslims could ever evolve a common nationality was an idle dream. In 1973, he said: “Hindustan is neither one country, nor its inhabitant’s one nation. This is sub continent which consists of many nations of which the Hindus and Muslims are two major nation.” Conclusion Two nation theory is the basis of the creation of Pakistan because without it Pakistan would not come into being on 14th August, 1947.

message: دو قومی نظریہ (اردو: دو قومی نظریہ دو قومی نظریہ) پاکستان کے قیام کی بنیاد ہے۔ دو قومی نظریہ کا اپنے سادہ ترین انداز میں مطلب یہ ہے کہ برصغیر کی دو بڑی برادریوں، ہندوؤں اور مسلمانوں کے درمیان ثقافتی، سیاسی، مذہبی، اقتصادی اور سماجی تفاوت۔ نقطہ نظر کے یہ اختلافات درحقیقت دو الگ الگ سیاسی نظریات کو جنم دینے میں بہت اہم تھے جو برصغیر کو دو آزاد ریاستوں میں تقسیم کرنے کے ذمہ دار تھے۔ دو قومی نظریہ تحریک پاکستان (یعنی جنوبی ایشیا میں ایک مسلم قومی ریاست کے طور پر پاکستان کا نظریہ) اور 1947 میں ہندوستان کی تقسیم کا ایک بنیادی اصول تھا۔
