What The Ashraf-ul Makhluqat Has Become
They say the world is moving towards betterment, that we are evolving day by day. Scientifically, we certainly are evolving. Today such technology is present which man couldn't even conjure in his wildest dreams just a century ago but the question is whether or not our character, our morality is also evolving for the better as human beings or are we simply going back to our animal-selves? Are we becoming better humans, better persons? I say we are not, save Pakistan. The one shining example of morality and humanity in this day and age might very well be our great nation of Pakistan.
The founder of Pakistan, Quaid-e Azam couldn't have been more proud of his creation today if he were here because of how the nation has wholeheartedly followed his motto: Unity, Faith, Discipline. No other nation can ever compete with ours when it comes to these three qualities prescribed by the founding father.
Let us take the first quality into consideration. I don't think any nation has ever showed true unity like the Pakistanis have practiced it. When it is practiced in unison, even in acts that might be called reckless, technically speaking, it is still 'unity'. So, when they recklessly and heartlessly - but collectively - slaughter and torture Ahmadis, of course, it is unity - And, so they believe. The unity present among Pakistanis is astonishing as the whole nation stands together in deciding Ahmadis' faith, casting them out of Islam; and none wants to break from the ranks to be seen standing up for Ahmadis or when Ahmadis unduly claim any rights they erroneously believe Quaid had promised. And, of course, why would they? They are equally united in their fears as well. Nobody fancies dealing with a blasphemy accusation or worse, a death threat. They are safe in their unity, in their ranks.
Secondly, there's the matter of faith Quaid mentioned. Pakistanis have made it so easy and flexible to follow that they've made faith into play-doh. Anyone can mold it into whatever suits them. Lets say, for example, you've had a difference with a Christian, an Ahmadi or a Shia; or if you are feeling bothered by them for whatever reason, well - no problem; you can just draw up a blasphemy scenario in your head and file a case against them. And BOOM, the problem is solved. They'll be rotting in jail for quite some time and you can easily go back to your daily life routine, without having to bother with the thought of any guilt for any supposed pain you may have just caused them and their family. After all they are non-Muslims, they are inferior, and they are just a bunch of Kafirs.
With government having stamped its approval, here everyone is rightfully convinced that the faith gives them the ultimate power. And, why not? After all, they are Muslims, they are superiors, and they are great Believers. I as an Ahmadi came to know from my fellow Pakistanis that I am actually not a Muslim, and it was quite a revelation. But who am I to question them when their conviction is seated so deep in their faith. Actually it doesn't even matter what I think or what I may stand for. As long as I'm an Ahmadi, in their mullahs' considered opinion, I'm 'Wajib-ul Qatal' (worthy of murder) and, with the strength of their faith, killing me will send them straight to their paradise. So, the way I see it - rather than to loath me - they should be loving me all the more; because, at least, I provide them an easy ticket to heaven - or else, how would they get there anyway? Certainly not by any of their other doings.
Now comes the matter of discipline. The people who say Pakistanis aren't disciplined are just a bunch of pessimists. Of course they're disciplined in their own special way. Hadn't you noticed how they attacked Ahmadis in 2010 while maintaining proper order and discipline, or the bombing of Data Darbar thereafter, the attack on a Christian church in Peshawar, or the Hindu dead man dug out of his grave, or the Shias slaughtered in streets of Pakistan? Aren't all these perfect examples of their disciplined approach towards the infidels soiling their land? I'm sure the world appreciates how they solve all their problems - personal or national - that while remaining disciplined they burn cars, beat up whoever bothers them, and blow up people and places when all else fails. All united in faith and with discipline they handle all matters perfectly well all by themselves - like adults. Rather than acting like babies and approaching the authorities for every little thing, at every given moment, they know better how to take care of their own matters.
Thus, Pakistan might not be the perfect nation by other silly world standards, Pakistanis might not agree with one another at every little point but they certainly seem to never cease in agreeing on bigger things - like unitedly asserting faith to slaughter, torture and abuse of everyone who gets in their way of discipline.
