 WHAT IS RELIGION ?

A religion is a set of beliefs that is held by a group of

people. There are many different religions, each with a
different set of beliefs. The beliefs are about the world
and the people in it, about how they came into being, and
what their purpose is. These beliefs are often linked to 
supernatural beings such as God, a number of gods or 
spirits.
 Ideology of Pakistan

• Pakistan’s ideology is based on ideals of the Islamic system. It was a

reaction to the Hindu and British explorations of the Muslims of the
sub-continent. It was a revolt against the prevailing system of India
where the Hindu Nationalism was being imposed on the Muslims and
their culture. It contained a strategy to save the Muslim culture from
total elimination. The creation of Pakistan was unique to the sense that
it was based on an ideology which sought its roots from the religion of
Islam.
• The famous slogan
“‫” پ اکست ان کا م طلب ک ی ا ۔۔۔۔ ال الہ اال ہللا‬
became the core of the freedom movement and the basis of Pakistan.
 WHAT IS SOCIETY ?

Society is the term to describe human beings together. It

does not refer to everything everybody thinks or does, but
only to those things that everybody acts upon - or refuses
to do.
In other words, society is the values, beliefs and interests
that the majority of people within a certain country have.
In other words, society is the majority opinion and the
"norm" within a certain region.
