Bangladesh Victory day Dec 16th

[Showkat]

Salaams

The poem below discusses some of the issues relating to Pakistan and its eventual break up, please add your views inshAllah.


I am East Pakistan

Created in 1947

Torn from mother India

And divided from my brother

West Pakistan

By several thousand miles of hostile territory



Land which was once ours

Under the glorious Islamic rule

Taken away by western powers

Who looted and polluted

All of our resources and way of life and values



When we woke up and challenged their injustice

They responded with barbarism

But Allah was with us

And they fled and sailed away

With only a token force remaining

Leaving behind a trail of destruction

And religions at each others throats.



Divide and conquer

Was their contribution to humanity

And greatest achievement



A great continent once ruled by Islam

Where it didn’t matter

What religion or no religion you followed

Because u were a citizen of the Islamic state

An example of multiculturalism

Never witnessed since



They divided a great country into two but created three separate parts

Millions died

But to them it didn’t matter

They saw us as uncivilised animals

And no one sheds tears when dogs die.



East and West Pakistan was soon born

But eventually to be torn

In 1971

Based on regionalism, nationalism, discrimination and exploitation

They had planted the seeds of division as a solution in 47



Brother hated brother

One brother sought help from the Hindus

And they were happy to contribute to the bloodshed



The victors celebrated

But both sides lost the pleasure of Allah

Insulting a Muslim is a sin

And killing a Muslim is disbelief



Since 71

Bangladesh has achieved notoriety and fame

The worlds most corrupt country

Several years in a row

Politically subservient to USA and India

Instead of being looted by the elites in West Pakistan

Now being bankrupted by those in Dhaka



Same sad story in Pakistan

The faces may change

But the corruption remains



How the heart aches

And regrets the mistake of division

Brother divided from brother

Since 71

Yearning for unity

Not based on superiority of regionalism or caste

But one based on Islam and piety



Forget the slogans of Joi Bangla and Pakistan zindabad

And embrace the slogans of Allahu Akbar, Khilafat, Khilafat

As you did in the past

Possibly the most blind-sighted and biased view of history in light of an hijbut-tahrir agenda,
it's easy to ignore when oppression is overlooked.

But then again, is it not Allah that helps the oppressed, and at times, non muslim nations are the ones that come to the aid of the oppressed?

In addition, although the goals of a khilafat are great, blindwashing history while overlooking facts will only make you repeat the same mistakes as every other ambitious, dogma-entrenched sheep that outdid literacy, honor and respect by means of guts and glory... or perhaps more accurately, someone else's guts for their own glory?

IMHO, the mughal empire fell because of the same attitude.
And here we are, at the end, suffering due to what followed thereafter. This was long, long before 1947.

What's happened isn't fixable. Nations have always been built and fallen.
This will continue.

I know that its true that both East and West Pakistan were far away. People tried to keep both the parts of Muslim State together but the enemies won and achieved their goal of divide and rule.
