Jinnah…the lost speeches…akaThe Arabian Sea Scrolls

June 17, 2010

Background

Near  Keti Bandar coast, two miles in the Arabian Sea, there is a small cone shaped rock . Due to recent geological changes, it became more prominent and has come out more from the sea. Near the top you can observe that there is a cave. During one recent Pak Navy expedition, they ventured into the cave and were astonished to find that it holds probably the biggest treasure of Pakistan’s History. One of the sailors I interviewed said that when they entered they found the cave to be  in the shape of a squarish hall. Four statues guard each corner. In the middle of the hall was a metal container fixed on a stone table. The following words were inscripted on the containor…”Mayans were wrong…Qiyamat will not come in December 2012. Only Geo’s Dr. Shahid Masood can tell you the correct date”. The 4 statues represented the 4 pillars of society. One statue had a green turban with a green parrot in his hand. The other one had a white turban with a prayer bead (tasbih) and the third one has a black turban with a gun…The most intriguing was the fourth one. It sports  a red beret. On his chest was inscripted, General of Ghazwa-e-Hind….Follower of GHQ on Twitter.

On the Eastern wall there was a mural, although time and weather had erased the mural features, but you can still make out a man with a good size moustache handing a sword to a thin frail man sitting on a white horse. As per good Islamic practices (as idolatry is forbidden) all these statues and the human representations in the mural are without noses.

The metal container was removed and was handed over to Pakistan Historical Society. However it caused much delay to find out that whether such society exists. As we all know that Pakistan is a progressive society and we believe in a bright future rather than history. However much to the dismay of the progressive forces of the country, there exists a Historical Society in a small one room flat in Gulshan and the container was handed over to them. They society after calling the local locksmith guy was able to open the container.

They were shocked to examine the contents. Firstly because the metal container touched their old millat fan and gave them a huge shock and secondly after realising what the continuer holds. Immediately they contacted the federal government and the Quaid-e-Azam Academy and they sent their team of experts to review the contents. What they found out were actual speeches made by Jinnah which were either lost in time or were changed by the governments of the time to meet their own agendas. They authenticity of document was confirmed by a certificate written in Jinnah’s own hand writing. The certificate was confirmed by the leading ulemas of Jamat-e-Islami and Jamiat-e-ulema-e-Islam Hind. The certificate shows that it was Allama Iqbal Sunni Barelvi Shayer-e-Sialkot who advises Jinnah sahib that it is very likely that the secular forces would try to distort his message. He advised Jinnah to made double copies of his speeches which can be stored at a safe place. Iqbal than created a tlism at the rock where the container carrying the speeches will be stored. The tlism was represented by the 4 statures guarding the golden thoughts of the Quaid. The reappearance of the rock was no geographical incident but the working of the tlism. When darkness will envelope the land of the pure, the hand of god will make the foundation pillars of this great country reappear. The same way the hand of god takes care of budget deficits every year.

The Speeches.

The speeches were divided into various sections. They provided the guiding light about how this nation will be governed. The biggest shock was the speech supposedly given by Jinnah in the constituent Assembly of Pakistan on August , 1947. As per the available records, he said

You are free; you are free to go to your temples, you are free to go to your mosques or to any other place or worship in this State of Pakistan. You may belong to any religion or caste or creed that has nothing to do with the business of the State. You will no doubt agree with me that the first duty of a government is to maintain law and order, so that the life, property and religious beliefs of its subjects are fully protected by the State.

History was rewritten as the original words were

You are free; you are free to die in your temples, you are free to be killed/maimed/murdered in your respected sectarian mosques or in any other place or worship (read Qadiani/Ahmedi/Lahori)  in this State of Pakistan. You may belong to any religion or caste or creed that has everything to do with the business of the State. You will no doubt agree with me that the first duty of a government is to provide various ways of provisions of decent livelihoods to the people who govern you.

At the end of this para he recited a couplet of Iqbal which was censored out by Sir Abdul Qadir from his kalam

Sabaq phir phar himaqat  ka, shahadat ka, janabat ka

Liya jaye ga tujh say kaam duya ki namaz-e-janaza ka

Another gem was from his speech at the inauguration of SBP. The following is what is usually quoted and after that what he actually said over there

The abnormal rise in the cost of living has hit the poorer sections of society including those with fixed incomes very hard indeed and is responsible to a great extent for the prevailing unrest in the country. The policy of the Pakistan Government is to stabilize prices at a level that would be fair to the producer, as well as the consumer. I hope your efforts will be directed in the same direction in order to tackle this crucial problem with success.

Here is what he actually wrote

The abnormal rise in the cost of living is normal and is a sign of growth. The people of Pakistan should learn to live with it. In fact they and their families should work 2-3 jobs thus increasing productivity and growth to the nation. If there is unrest, it will be handled with an iron fist of our armed forces. The policy of the Pakistan Government is to stabilize prices at a level that would be beneficial to the foreign producer. I hope your efforts will be directed in the same direction in order to tackle this crucial problem with success.

While giving an interview to American press representatives in July 1942, when asked by one of the journalists whether the Muslims were a nation or not, Jinnah was quoted as follow:

We are a nation with our own distinctive culture and civilization, language and literature, art and architecture, names and nomenclature, sense of values and proportion, legal laws and moral codes, customs and calendar, history and traditions, aptitudes and ambitions, in short, we have our own distinctive outlook on life and of life. By all cannons of international law we are a nation

Here is what he actually said

We are a nation comprising of various nations defined by the fiqas we follow, languages we speak and whether we wear our pants/pajamas/shalwars/dhotis ankle high or not. In short, we have our own distinctive outlook on life and death. By all cannons of international law we are a nation. That is one of the reasons why cannon of International law are a failure.

His views on whether Pakistan is a secular state as expressed in his policy speech on August 11, 1947 said:’

There is no other solution. Now what shall we do? Now, if we want to make this great State of Pakistan happy and prosperous, we should wholly and solely concentrate on the well-being of the people, and especially of the masses and the poor. If you will work in co-operation, forgetting the past, burying the hatchet, you are bound to succeed. If you change your past and work together in a spirit that everyone of you, no matter to what community he belongs, no matter what relations he had with you in the past, no matter what is his color, caste or creed, is first, second and last a citizen of this State with equal rights, privileges, and obligations, there will be no end to the progress you will make. I cannot emphasize it too much.

How is possible that the father of the nation utter such blasphemous words. Now we know what he actually said was:

There is no other solution. Now what shall we do? Now, if we want to make this great State of Pakistan happy and prosperous, we should wholly and solely concentrate on the definition of who is a Muslim and most importantly, who is not. The time of the state should than be spent on making laws to make the life of a non Muslim a living hell. The poor should also be regarded as non Muslims. They are poor because they are not good followers. If you will work in co-operation, always live in the past, you are bound to succeed. If you change your past into a glorious one (which it was not ) and work together in a spirit that everyone of you, if he belongs to the right community or fiqah, no matter what relations he had with you in the past (if he has the right contacts and dough, he is your relative, as all  musalmans are brothers), if he is of fair color, right caste or creed, is first, second and last a citizen of this State with equal rights, privileges, and obligations, there will be no end to the progress you will make. I cannot emphasize it too much.

On October 11, 1947, in an address to Civil, Naval, Military and Air Force Officers of Pakistan Government, Karachi, he said:

We should have a State in which we could live and breathe as free men and which we could develop according to our own lights and culture and where principles of Islamic social justice could find free play.

How it was possible…here is what he really meant

We should have a State in which you and you alone could live and breathe as free men and which we could develop according to your own lights and culture and where principles of Islamic social justice could find free play for you.

It is also mentioned that the officers sang  a milli naghma titiled

Itnay baray jeewan sagar mein tu nay hum ko Pakistan diya

Kiyonnnnnnnnnnnn   Ala …..Akhir Kiyon Ala

On February 21, 1948, in an address to the officers and men of the 5th Heavy Ack Ack and 6th Light Ack Ack Regiments in Malir, Karachi, he said:

You have to stand guard over the development and maintenance of Islamic democracy, Islamic social justice and the equality of manhood in your own native soil. With faith, discipline and selfless devotion to duty, there is nothing worthwhile that you cannot achieve.

 

He actually uttered the following the brave soldiers.

 

You have to stand guard and govern over the development and maintenance of Islamic democracy, Islamic social justice and the equality of manhood (women are inferior and you rule them) in the military. The objective of creation of this state is your welfare. With faith, discipline and selfless devotion to duty, there is nothing worthwhile that you cannot achieve besides takht-e- Pakistan. Your first and foremost duty is to conquer the land of Bengal, Sindh, NWFP and Balochistan to make the might of Pakistan known to others. The budget belongs to you. Deficits are the responsibility of the IMF and the second class people of Pakistan.  

It is also clarified through these papers that the Quaid never attended a independence day reception and dance as propagated by some nefarious elements. In fact he attended a Mehfil-e-Qawwali at Dargah Abdullah Shah Ghazi to honor the event.

This is just a small excerpt from a huge collection of original thoughts from the founder. Unfortunately some devilish portion of society raised questions about the validity of these papers. The papers have been sent for carbon dating to Rehman Malik laboratory of Carbon Analysis in Surrey Palace. Initial reports are quite positive. Once we get the final report, the government has promised to sent those devilish elements for their carbon dating  at Attock fort. The government will than publish the complete works so the constitution of Pakistan will be redone and will be made according to the dreams of founders of the land of the pure….

Keep watching this space for the uncensored kalam of Allam Iqbal and a progress report about the excavation of the remains of a mosque at Moenjodaro.
