What else response you expected for an absurd statement like " nor Jinnah envisage the full implementation of Sharia"
I mean, either Sharia is implemented or it is not -
Try refuting the point you made on not allowing participation of minorities, or don't bother discussing other issues. Clutching at straws is worse than not responding.
The quote above allows them freedom of worship, citizenship, and acknowledges they 'have their responsibilities also and they will play their part in the affairs of this state'. Just the words 'have their responsibilities' suggest that their responsibilities are different from others. Based on these special responsibilities, they will play their part in the affairs of this state. He is literally carving out a role for them.
I agree that he does imply a special status for them and role, but he also says that they would have every right a Muslim citizen has, making no further qualifying statement. "They will be, in all respects, the citizens of Pakistan without any distinction". We need someone better informed on Jinnah than me to find anything more conclusive than the quote I posted about Jinnah's take on the role of minorities.
