Question: “It was over-reaction of Hindus to the partition of the Bengal in 1905 that widened the gulf between Muslims and Hindus”. Comment.

Over-Reaction of Hindus to “The Partition of the Bengal” Widened the Gulf Between the Muslims and The Hindus

Introduction

The annulment of the partition greatly disappointed the Muslims and their faith in the justice of the British government was shaken badly. In addition, the Hindu agitation against the partition convinced the Muslim community that the Hindus were bent upon damaging its interests at all costs.

1. According to I.H Qureshi

“Muslim reaction to these decisions was naturally bitter. For years the government of India and Home government had been telling the Muslims that the decision regarding the partition of Bengal was final and would not be reopened. Such flagrant disregard for solemn promises created a feeling of distrust among the Muslims. They lost all faith in British pledges. They were convinced that the Government listened only to sedition and clamour, that constitutional approaches did not pay, that loyalty was rewarded with treachery………….”

Dismantled Kashmir (By: Dr. Zeeshan Khan)

1 Comment on Dismantled Kashmir (By: Dr. Zeeshan Khan)

The story of Distressed Kashmiris stirred again during Imran-Trump meeting in July this year. Trump talked about the Indian Prime Minister Modi offer about asking for the mediation over Kashmir. But in August, India imposes Kashmir lockdown, puts Kashmiri leaders ‘under house arrest’.Restrictions on movement and assembly imposed, Yatra Pilgrimage and mobile internet suspended as disputed region plunges into uncertainty.

The measures came after the Indian government moved 10,000 troops to the region last week, followed by an unprecedented order asking tourists and Hindu pilgrims to leave the Himalayan valley. Residents fear New Delhi has planned to engineer demographic changes.

The latest spate of tensions began after India sent 10,000 more troops to what is already one of the most militarised regions in the world.

India’s government has revoked the special constitutional status of Indian-occupied Kashmir (IoK), amid a heavy security crackdown in the disputed region.

The constitutional provision forbids Indians from outside the region from buying land or permanently settling in the Muslim-majority territory.

What is happening?

The Hindu nationalist-led government of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday proposed revoking Article 370 of India’s constitution, which confers special rights to permanent residents of IoK.

Question: Sir Syed Alunad Khan was in no way pro-British”. Agree or disagree, answer your question with arguments

SOLUTION:

SIR SYED AHMAD KHAN WAS, IN NO WAY, PRO-BRITISH

“Sir Syed Ahmed was neither a politician nor a political leader. He was essentially a social reformer and his panacea for all the ills of his community were education.” Hafeez Malik

“Sir Syed was an ardent reformer and he wanted to reconcile modern scientific thought with religion by rationalistic interpretations and not by attacking basic belief. He was anxious to push new education. He was in no way communally separatist. Repeatedly he emphasised that religious differences should have no political and national significance”.
Jawaharlal Nehru, Former Prime Minister of India

1 Comment on Seerah of Holy Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) As Diplomatic | CSS Islamic Studies Notes

The Holy Prophet (PBUH) is a role model for the mankind in all fields of life. He set the most perfect standards for the conduct of diplomats as well. All through his life, he was always conscious of maintaining cordial relations between Muslims and other communities. The Holy Prophet (PBUH), for the first time, came into contact with foreign world during his teenage when he went on a trade journey to Syria along with his uncle Hazrat Abu Talib. Then, during his youth he again went to Syria as a trade agent of Hazrat Khadijah (R.A). The Holy Prophet (PBUH) showed great attributes during these journeys. Hazrat Khadijah (R.A), a rich and highly influential businesswoman of that time, was so much impressed that she sent proposal for marriage to the Prophet (PBUH) that was accepted. This marriage had great impact on the life of the Prophet (PBUH) as it stabilized his financial status which enabled him to fully concentrate on propagation of Islam.
