The Sacrifices Behind Our Freedom
Every year on 25 December, we remember our greatest national hero, Muhammad Ali Jinnah 🇵🇰. Yet, the painful truth is this: we remember him for one day, and forget him for the rest of the year. This collective forgetting is one of the reasons Pakistan stands today at one of its most difficult stages—politically, economically, and morally.
The Man Who Gave Us Pakistan
Born: 25 December 1876
Pakistan Established: 14 August 1947
Through constitutional struggle, discipline, and moral strength, Quaid-e-Azam turned a scattered nation into a sovereign state. He did not inherit Pakistan—he built it, despite illness, pressure, and personal sacrifice.
His Positivity Was His Power
Quaid-e-Azam believed:
- Problems are solved through law and discipline
- Nations rise with unity, not division
- Leadership demands honesty and sacrifice
He stayed firm when others compromised. His positivity came from purpose, not comfort.
The Sacrifices Behind Our Freedom
Short paragraph, but heavy truth: Quaid-e-Azam gave his health, peace, and final years so we could live with dignity. We are standing today because he never stepped back, even when his body could no longer support him.
Where Did We Go Wrong?
Another hard reality: We forgot Quaid’s principles, and that is why Pakistan is struggling today.
- We replaced discipline with shortcuts
- Unity with divisions
- Merit with favoritism
- Responsibility with blame
Nations don’t collapse overnight—they fall when values are ignored.
Quaid’s Dream vs. Our Reality
Quaid’s Dream: Faith, Unity, Discipline
Our Reality: Disunity, indiscipline, and weak accountability
This gap explains our decline more than any external factor.
Why Learning from Quaid Matters Today
- To rebuild trust in institutions
- To restore Pakistan’s global respect
- To secure a better future for coming generations
A Final Reflection
On this 25 December, tribute alone is not enough. If we truly want Pakistan to rise again, we must remember Quaid-e-Azam not in words, but in actions. Only then can Pakistan move away from its worst stage—and back toward the nation Quaid-e-Azam dreamed of 🇵🇰.
