spiritualism. He focused on the conditions of the Indian Muslims. He motivated
the Muslims of India to demand for a separate homeland.
Describe Ideology of Pakistan and its importance in your own words?
Ideology of Pakistan means that Pakistan should be a country where Muslims have an
opportunity to live according to the faith and belief based on their religion. When the twonation theory started getting importance it was believed that the Muslims should have all the
resources at the disposal to enhance Islamic culture and civilization.
The ideology acts as a support for the nation and without it there would be no concept of a
nation or a nation-state. This allowed for its followers to form a movement between the
common communities towards a revolution. This nation succeeded in its independence thanks
to its ideology.

Fights based on religions- Hindus were a majority in India which caused the Muslims
to not have equal rights
The British treated people based on their religion and some of the civilians were
treated brutally

its full support. There was the hope of an undivided India, but soon the idea blurred
out. That left no choice but to the partition of subcontinent.
