This Thursday, the 11th of September, the 66th death anniversary of the founder of Pakistan, Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah is being observed today across the country with reverence and honour. Special prayers were offered all over Pakistan for the eternal peace of the great leader of the sub-continent. Numerous special ceremonies were held across the country.

Political leaders, government functionaries and social personages including Governor and Chief Minister of Sindh laid floral wreaths and offered Fateha at Quaid’s mausoleum. Different sittings of Quranic recitation will be held countrywide including the one at the mausoleum of the Quaid in Karachi. Ambassadors of many Muslim countries will join the Mehfil-i-Quran Khawani, to be held at the Faisal Mosque, to pay homage to Founder of Pakistan Muhammad Ali Jinnah on his death anniversary. The Quran Khawani congregation which the Nazriya Pakistan Council, Islamabad, has been holding for the last 20 years will be joined by citizens of twin-cities of Rawalpindi and Islamabad according to Pakistan Today.

Quaid-e-Azam passed away on September 11, 1948 just a year after the independence of his nation. LK Advani, an Indian politician once said, “There are many people who leave an irreversible stamp on history. But there are few who actually create history. Qaed-e-Azam Mohammed Ali Jinnah was one such rare individual. In his early years, leading luminary of freedom struggle Sarojini Naidu described Jinnah as an ambassador of Hindu-Muslim unity. His address to the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan on August 11, 1947 is really a classic and a forceful espousal of a secular state in which every citizen would be free to follow his own religion. The State shall make no distinction between the citizens on the grounds of faith. My respectful homage to this great man.”
