No, it wasn't given a chance to work. Religious parties, like JI, pretty much turned Pakistan into a religious country.
prove it.
Speaking on a reform scheme at Sibbi Derbar on Feb. 4, 1948, Quaid-e-Azam proclaimed:
In proposing this scheme, I have had one underlying principle in mind, the principle of Muslim democracy. It is my belief that our salvation lies in following the golden rule of conduct set for us by our great lawgiver the Prophet of Islam. Let us lay the foundations of our democracy on the basis of truly Islamic ideals and principles.
In a broadcast talk to the people of Australia, Feb. 1948, the Quaid spoke of the Islamic characteristics of Pakistani society in these words: The great majority of us are Muslims. We follow the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). We are the members of the brotherhood of Islam in which all are equal in rights, dignity and self-respect. Not only are most of us Muslims but we have our own history, customs and traditions and those ways of thought, outlook and instinct who go to make up a sense of nationality.
In a radio broadcast to the people of the United States of America in Feb. 1948, he spoke of Islamic system of government to be adopted in Pakistan.
The constitution of Pakistan has yet to be framed by the Pakistan Constituent Assembly. I do not know what the ultimate shape of this constitution is going to be, but I am sure that it will be of a democratic type, embodying the essential principles of Islam. Today they are as applicable in actual life as they were 1,300 years ago. Islam and its idealism have taught us democracy. It has taught equality of man, justice and taught us democracy. It has taught equality of man, justice and fair play to everybody. We are the inheritors of these glorious traditions and are fully alive to our responsibilities and obligations as framers of the future constitution of Pakistan.

To define the basis for Pakistan, she quoted Jinnah from his various speeches and concluded at the one delivered at the Karachi Bar Association. No doubt there are
many people who do not quite appreciate when we talk of Islam. Islam is not only a set of rituals, traditions and spiritual doctrines,

Jinnahs speech at the bar aligns well with another one delivered on February 14, 1948 at the Sibi Durbar, where he said: It is my belief that our
salvation lies in following the golden rules of conduct set for us by our great law giver, the Prophet (PBUH) of Islam. Let us lay the
foundation of our democracy on the basis of truly Islamic ideals and principles.

Following is the detailed text of Jinnah's Bar association speech cited above:
Karachi Bar Association given on March 25th, 1948
"Thirteen hundred years ago he laid the foundation of democracy
The Prophet was a great teacher. He was a great lawgiver. He was a great statesman and a great sovereign who ruled. No doubt, there are many people who do not quite appreciate when we talk of Islam. Islam is not only a set of rituals, traditions and spiritual doctrines. Islam is also a code for every Muslim, which regulates his life and his conduct in even politics and economics and the like. It is based upon highest principles of honour, integrity, fair play and justice for all. One God and the equality of man is one of the fundamental principles of Islam. In Islam there is no difference between man and man. The qualities of equality, liberty and fraternity are the fundamental principles in Islam."
Also in the same speech,
"What reason is there for anyone to fear democracy, equality, freedom on the highest standard of integrity and on the basis of fair play and justice for everybody
Let us make it (the constitution of Pakistan). We shall make it and we will show it to the world."
they're two people with two different opinions. You're an idiot.
Idiot are those who lie to themselves about their history ,He was Quaidoos chosen man,who will know him better than Liaquat??
The Objective Resolution of Liaquat Ali Khan was the main founding document that Pakistan won't be a secular state.
I would rather say the struggle based on islamic slogan and hatred of hindus was .
He fought his last 15 years for a communal agenda ,you can't purify yourself then in few months.
