+he story of freedom is a continuous struggle of 1HH years of the !uslims of sub continent. I remember the days when all the !uslims were united for the great cause of Pakistan. I remember the days when the !uslims were de#oted for the cause of their freedom. I remember the days when the !uslims were de#oted for their slogans. I remember the days, ladies and gentlemenO the leadershi" abilities of a great Nawyer of subcontinent. Ges, you are right, I am talking about %uaideA5am !uhammad Ali 0innah. Nets solute the father of nation for his great eorts for the establishment of Pakistan, It is because of our great %uaid that we are li#ing in an inde"endence country, we are no longer the sla#es of $indus and 'ritish "eo"le, so once again I salute the great %uaid for his sincere eorts. Nadies and MentlemenO I remember the days when Allama Ibal ga#e ho"e to the ho"eless "eo"le of subcontinent. I remember those glorious days. Fear AudienceO +hose days and D years later in the "resent days, when I make com"arison between these I *nd a big dierence. Chen I com"are the "eo"le of those times with today, I am sur"rise to see that "eo"le nowadays are di#ided into dierent sects. +hey re"resent themsel#es by their casts and sects. Ce need to de#elo" a system today so letLs built a better nation because millions of our brothers are hel"less, they need our hel". NetLs disco#er the secrets of a satis*ed life. In "re#ious times, "eo"le who were not so wealthy but they were ha""ier and content then the "eo"le of modern age. +he reason behind that was their sim"licity and lo#e for each other. +hey were not sel*sh and greedy like the men of modern age. +he wealthy "eo"le used to distribute their wealth to the "oor "erson and Islam is all about that. 'eing a !uslim and Pakistani, Ce need to de#elo" the system of 8ustice and euality in all "arts of our society. o if wealth within a community sto"s at one "lace, then that society can ne#er "rogress. +his is the reason that Islam em"hasi5es to build a system where there is 8ustice and the life of a common man is same as the life of a king. es"ected AudienceO As a Pakistani we need to reali5e that Pakistan was established in the name of Islam. Ce need to show unity and brotherhood.

I reuest the youth of our country to sa#e Pakistan from these social crimes. NetLs take Pakistan to another le#el of glory. +he day is not far when we will make Pakistan the homeland of sincere "eo"le. I/$ANNA$ we can achie#e our aim, if all the Neaders think as a real Pakistani. Ce should try to lead the mission of %uaid. In the end Nets Pray for Pakistan, Nets "ray that our country would make "rogress as other countries of the world. All this can come into reality when our leaders will make sincere eorts as a Pakiatani and as a true !uslim.
