Well creation of Pakistan ensured that Islam will remain a dominant cultural , political , social , and religious force in Afghanistan , Northern India , Sindh , East Bengal and Western Punjab. Creation of Pakistan also assures that Muslim population of India is not oppressed beyond a certain limit...because after that , Pakistan military will come into the scene and would hurt India's interest ( through using powerful tools like ISI) .. Who knows what inferiority-complex hindus have done with Muslims , had there been no Pakistan? We all know how they treat Shudars etc... Now , today , there are over 500 million Muslims in wider South Asia!!!!
Pakistan provides land , water , food , shelter , technology , military , state , and freedom to 180 million Muslims of South Asia.....We don't live under hindu rule..we don't have a fear of anything..Offcourse , Pakistan is not perfect...but it atleast provides chance for Muslims of North India to achieve great things... Without Pakistan , this would've been impossible.
I'm from Punjabi background...let me tell you : Hindus used to administer the Urban businesses and markets in Punjab...Sikhs were top-guys in rural Agriculture in Punjab..Muslims were lowwwww down the hierarchy! West Punjab had most fertile lands in North India...but mostly belonged to Sikhs...
Today : Muslims administer the markets and businesses of Punjab...Muslims control the rural agriculture of Punjab...Muslims control the irrigation system of North India...Muslim Punjabis irrigate the BEST lands of Punjab (Western Punjab)....so on and so forth...This is just punjab...
Overall , what did Muslims of North India had in 1947? Today , Muslims in this region are as prosperous Indians are. Muslims have their own industry , banking , agricultural lands , water , access to sea , ports , trade-markets , commerce , infrastructure , job market , education system , government , one of the strongest military in the world , functioning nuclear program , universities , businesses, representation in U.N , and what not? So Pakistan is a blessing ... Blessing for Muslims of North India....blessing for Muslims in South Asia...and blessing for Islam overall Mashallah...Due to Pakistan's fight in Afghanistan , today WHOLE central Asia is a Muslim-Majority region...Otherwise , Soviets would've destroyed each mosque there by now...
So never under-estimate Pakistan. Jinnah was the MAN!!
