The spirit of patriotism makes us stay alert in the wake of foreign invasion. In the history of Pakistan there are many
instances when people laid their lives for the defence of the country. In the wars of 1965, 1971 and the Kargil war,
many brave soldiers gave their lives in an attempt to protect the homeland.

The Blue Masjid reflects the architectural style of both Ottoman masjid and Byzentine church. Hagia Sophia, a
masjid, one of the wonders of Muslims architecture, was also kept in view as a model. The Blue Masjid even today
is considered unmatched in splendor, majesty and size.

During the perilous journey, it was difficult for anyone to supply food to Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H). The

     In December, 1930 Dr. Muhammad Iqbal was invited to preside over the annual meeting of All India Muslim
League at Allahabad. In his address he openly opposed the idea of welding together of Hindus and Muslims into one
nation. He declared that the move to apply one constitution to both the Hindus and Muslims would result in a civil
war. He wanted to see the Punjab, Sind, Baluchistan and the KPK, a single State for the Muslims, so that they
should live according to the teachings of Islam. We can say that Allama Iqbal was the first thinker to give us the idea
of a separate homeland for the Muslims of India i.e. partition of the Subcontinent into two sovereign states. The
Muslims soon realized the importance of the demand for two separate states. It was then adopted as the Pakistan
Resolution in 1940.
