Introduction
The era from 1940 to 1947 is the era of rapid changes. Many important events in the history of the Sub
Continent took place. The demand of Pakistan is the most prominent among them. In the past, the demand of
Pakistan was not raised clearly. It was due to Muslim achievements in this period that now we are living in a
sovereign and independent state. The political events from Pakistan Resolution to the establishment of
Pakistan are summarized under
We are a nation with our own distinctive culture and civilization, language and literature, art and architecture,
names and nomenclature, sense of values and proportion, legal laws and moral code, customs and calender,
history and tradition, aptitudes and ambitions; in short, we have our own distinctive outlook on life and of life.
By all canons of international law, we are a nation.
The wall between Jinnah and Gandhi was the Two Nation Theory.
I have no doubt now in the acheivement of Pakistan. The Muslims of India told the world what they want. No
power of world can topple the opinion of 10 crore Muslims of India.
The Muslim League accepted the plan on June 6, 1946. The Congress accepted the plan on June 25, 1946,
though it rejected the interim setup. The Viceroy should now have invited the Muslim League to form
Government as it had accepted the interim setup; but he did not do so because he did not want to make
Congress angry. So in this situation Cabinet Mission went back to England on June 29 without deciding
anything.
13. Direct Action Day (16th August, 1946)
The Council of the All India Muslim League met in Bombay and on July 27, 1946 it finally sealed its rejection
of the Cabinet Mission Plan, and decided to launch its famous “Direct Action” for the achievement of Pakistan,
which it could not achieve by peaceful means due to the intransigence of Congress on the one hand and the
breach of faith with the Muslim by the British Government on the other. Direct Action Day was observed
peacefully throughout India, except in Calcutta, where riots broke out.

1- Abu Bakr served as caliph from 632 until his death in 634. His first major accomplishment was to deal with
the problem of the Bedouins (nomadic Arabs). Although some had converted under Muhammad, after his
death they rejected Islam and refused to obey Abu Bakr. In 633, the caliph defeated the Bedouin revolt, known
as the Ridda, and thereby secured the entire Arabian peninsula for Islam. The experience served to convince
Abu Bakr that Islam needed to expand beyond Arabia in order to be secure. He set his sights on the two
neighboring empires he viewed as threats to Islam: the Sassanid Empire to the east in Persia and Iraq, and the
Byzantine Empire to the west in Europe, Syria, Egypt, and the Mediterranean Sea. He declared a jihad against
the Byzantine Christians, but died before he was able to carry it out.
2- The second caliph was Umar, another father-in-law of Muhammad, who had been named by Bakr as his
successor. His caliphate lasted from 634 to 644. One of his first contributions was to add “Commander of the
Faithful” to his title, which was used by all subsequent caliphs. His primary contribution, though, was a series
of military victories resulting in the rapid expansion of Islam. He conquered Damascus in 635 and Jerusalem in
637, both from Syria in the Byzantine Empire. Realizing the importance of loyalty in his new subjects, Umar
instituted a policy of religious tolerance in his new lands. This was received gratefully by Jews and Christians,
who had been persecuted under the Byzantines. He instituted two taxes, the kharaj for landowners with
productive fields and the jizya, which non-Muslims paid in return for the privilege of practicing their religion.
At the same time, Muslim forces were moving against the Sassanid Empire in the east. Once he had secured
his place in Syria, Umar succeeded in conquering the Sassanid capital, Ctesiphon, in 637. Turning west yet
again, with a Muslim Syria assisting, Umar’s forces set out for Egypt. Babylon fell in 641, and Alexandria in
642. Christians have not ruled in Egypt since. Umar continued the policy of tolerance in the newly-conquered
lands, and Muslims did not force conversion to Islam. They depended too much on the revenue from the jizya
tax and the nonresistance of the outnumbering non-Muslims.
Muslims would find that it was not as easy to placate Persia as other conquered lands. By the time Islam
arrived, the Persians had become a fiercely nationalistic people. They had their own national religion,
Zoroastrianism, and considered the invading Arab Muslims inferior. Caliph Umar, Commander of the Faithful,
was assassinated by a Persian Christian in 644. But by the time of Umar’s death, the Muslim Empire was
second only to the Chinese Empire in size.
3- USMAN, a member of the influential Umayyad family, was chosen as Umar’s successor, leaving Ali’s
supporters once again disappointed and angry. USMAN served as the third caliph from 644 to 656. In 645, he
defeated a Byzantine attempt to recover Alexandria, and in 647 he began expanding the Muslim Empire west
of Egypt. He conquered Cyprus in 649 and his forces reached the easternmost boundary of Persia in 653.
Some of USMAN’s other accomplishments, however, were not as popular among Muslims. He appointed
fellow members of the Umayyad family to administrative positions, depleted the treasury with his lavish
spending habits and lack of financial planning, and perhaps most controversial of all, he sought to create a
single, definitive text of the Qur’an. He succeeded in accomplishing his goal, and thereby significantly reduced
doctrinal disagreements, but not without criticism from those who suspected USMAN of tampering with the
sacred texts. In any case, USMAN’s compilation of the Qur’an must certainly be considered a significant
accomplishment for Islam.
4- Discontent abounded in the new empire. In 656 USMAN was assassinated in his home by a group of
Egyptians, and civil war immediately erupted. Muslim fought Muslim over who would next assume
leadership. The never-resolved conflict between Ali’s supporters and other Muslims came to a head. Ali
declared himself the fourth caliph, a claim which was promptly challenged by Mu’awiya, USMAN’s cousin
and the governor of Syria. At the “Battle of the Camel” in December 656, Ali’s forces killed two of
Muhammad’s friends and kidnapped one of his widows.
Before long, a strong public outcry against the violence led Ali and Mu’awiya to agree to submit to the
decision of a council, which would use the Qur’an as a guide in deciding who should be caliph. But when the
council concluded that both should step down, Ali refused, and civil war continued. It was at this point that
another another division arose within Islam. The Kharijites, a group of Shi’ites and supporters of Ali, were
angry at his ever agreeing to submit to a human decision on a matter that should only be decided by God.
Refusing allegiance to both Ali and Mu’awiya, the Kharijites appointed their own caliph.
In July 660, Mu’awiya declared himself caliph in Jerusalem. He had on his side not only Egypt and Syrian
forces, but the Kharijites as well. The latter, intending to kill both Ali and Mu’awiya, got to Ali first. With Ali
out of the picture, Mu’awiya was finally successful in claiming control of the Islamic Empire. The civil war
came to an end, and the Umayyad Dynasty began.
These four Khulafaa (pl. for Caliph) are called the “Khulafaa-e-Rashidun” or the “Rightly Guided Caliphs.”
Together, these four Khulafaa ruled the Islamic State for about 29 years. They are called “Rightly
Guided”because they ruled the people of that time exactly according to the Holy Koran and the commands of
Sayyiduna Rasulullah (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam).

Pakistan and China relationship began in 1950 when Pakistan was among the first countries to establish
relations with the Republic of China on Taiwan and recognize the PRC. Following the 1962 Sino-Indian War,
both countries has placed considerable importance on the maintenance of a extremely close and supportive
relationship. Since then, the two countries have regularly exchanged high-level visits resulting in a variety of
agreements both development and educational. China has provided economic, military and technical assistance
to Pakistan and each considers the other a close strategic ally.
Bilateral relations have evolved from an initial Chinese policy of neutrality to a partnership that links a smaller
but militarily powerful Pakistan, partially dependent on China for its economic and military strength, with
China attempting to balance competing interests in the region. Diplomatic relations were established in 1950,
military assistance began in 1966, a strategic alliance was formed in 1972 and economic co-operation began in
1979. China has become Pakistan’s largest sup¬plier of arms and its third-largest trad¬ing partner. Recently,
both nations have decided to cooperate in improving
Pakistan’s civilian nuclear program.
Favorable relations with China is a pillar of Pakistan’s foreign policy. China supported Pakistan’s opposition
to the Soviet Union’s intervention in Afghanistan and is perceived by Pakistan as a regional counterweight to
India and the United States. China and Pakistan also share close military relations, with China supplying a
range of modern armaments to the Pakistani defense forces. China supports Pakistan’s stance onKashmir while
Pakistan supports China on the issues of Xinjiang, Tibet, and Taiwan. Lately, military cooperation has
deepened with joint projects producing armaments ranging from fighter jets to guided missile frigates.
Chinese cooperation with Pakistan has reached economic high points, with substantial Chinese investment in
Pakistani infrastructural expansion including the Pakistani deep water port at Gwadar. Both countries have an
ongoing free trade agreement. Pakistan has served as China’s main bridge between Muslim countries. Pakistan
also played an important role in bridging the communication gap between China andthe West by facilitating
the 1972 Nixon visit to China.
Pakistan has a long and symbiotic relationship with China. The long-standing ties between the two countries
have been mutually supportive. A close identity of views and mutual interests remain the hallmark of bilateral
ties. Since the 1962 Sino-Indian War, Pakistan has supported China on most issues of importance to the latter,
especially those related to the question of China’s sovereignty like Taiwan, Xinjiang, andTibet and other
sensitive issues such as human rights.
The Chinese leadership has acknowledged Pakistan’s steadfast support on key issues. Pakistan helped China in
reestablishing formal ties with the West, where they helped make possible the 1972 Nixon visit to China.
Pakistan has collaborated with China in extensive military and economic projects, seeing China as a
counterweight to India and the United States. Pakistan has also served as a conduit for China’s influence in the
Muslim world. China also has a consistent record of supporting Pakistan in regional issues. During the
Pakistan-Indian tensions in 2008, it implied that it would support Pakistan in the event of a war. Pakistan’s
military depends heavily on Chinese armaments, and joint projects of both economic and militaristic
importance are ongoing. China has supplied equipment to support Pakistan’s nuclear program, and has been
accused of giving nuclear technology to Pakistan.
Diplomatic relations
Diplomatic relations between Pakistan and China were established on 21 May 1951, shortly after the defeat of
the Republic Of China in 1949. While initially ambivalent towards the idea of a Communist country on it’s
borders, Pakistan hoped that China would serve as a counterweight to Indian influence. India had recognized
China a year before, and Indian Prime Minister Nehru also hoped for closer relations with the Chinese.
However, with escalating border tensions leading to the 1962 Sino-Indian war, China and Pakistan aligned
with each other in a joint effort to counter perceived Indian encroachment. One year after China’s border war
with India, Pakistan ceded the Trans-Karakoram Tract to China to end border disputes and improve diplomatic
relations.
Since then, an informal alliance that initially consisted of joint Indian opposition has grown into a lasting
relationship that has benefited both nations on the diplomatic, economic and military frontiers. Along with
diplomatic support, Pakistan served as a conduit for China to open up to the West. China has in turn provided
extensive economic aid and political support towards Pakistan.
Pakistan’s military initially depended almost entirely on American armaments and aid, which was increased
during the covert U.S. support of Islamic militants in theSoviet war in Afghanistan. America under US
President Richard Nixon supported Pakistan in the 1971 Bangladesh Liberation War.[13] However, the period
following the Soviet withdrawal and the dissolution of the Soviet Union led indirectly to the increasing
realignment of America with the previously pro-Soviet India. The Pressler Amendment in 1990 suspended all
American military assistance and any new economic aid amidst concerns that Pakistan was attempting to
develop a nuclear weapon.[ Given the support that Pakistan had given them during the War in Afghanistan,
many Pakistanis saw this as a betrayal that sold out Pakistani interests in favor of India. This belief was further
strengthened as India had developed a nuclear weapon without significant American opposition, and Pakistan
felt obligated to do the same. Consequently, the primarily geopolitical alliance between Pakistan and China has
since 1990 branched out into military and economic cooperation, due to Pakistan’s belief that America’s
influence and support in the region should be counterbalanced by the Chinese.
With the war in Afghanistan leading to renewed relations with the U.S., there is a general sentiment in Pakistan
to adopt a foreign policy which favors China over the United States. Washington has been accused deserting
Pakistan in favor of a policy that favors stronger relations with India, while Pakistan sees China as a more
reliable ally over the long term.
Since 9/11, Pakistan has increased the scope of Chinese influence and support by agreeing to a number of
military projects, combined with extensive economic support and investment from the Chinese. This is
partially due to Pakistan’s strategy of playing off the two powers against each other, but also a genuine effort
to prevent America’s influence in the region from becoming too strong. In return, the Chinese hope to
strengthen Pakistan as a counterbalance to American and Indian influence.
Military relations
The People’s Republic of China enjoys strong defense ties with Pakistan. This relationship between two
adjoining Asian countries is important in the world’s geo-strategic alliances. The strong defense ties are
primarily to counter regional Indian and American influence, and was also to repel Soviet influence in the area.
In recent years this relationship has strengthened through ongoing defence projects and agreements between
Pakistan and China.
Since 1962, China has been a steady source of military equipment to the Pakistani Army, helping establish
munition factories, providing technological assistance and modernizing existing facilities. The countries are
involved in the joint venture of several projects to enhance military and weaponry systems, which include
collaborating in the development of JF-17 Thunder fighter aircraft, K-8 Karakorum advance training aircraft,
space technology, AWACS systems, Al-Khalid tanks and the Babur cruise missile. The armies have a schedule
for organising joint military exercises.
China is the largest investor in the Gwadar Deep Sea Port, which is strategically located at the mouth of the
Strait of Hormuz. It is viewed warily by both America and India as a possible launchpad for Chinese naval
operations in the Indian Ocean. However the Gwadar Port is currently delayed due to a multilateral diplomatic
standoff between the project leaders and the Singapore government.China has offered Pakistan military aid in
order to fight against terrorism in Pakistan. Pakistan has purchased military equipment from China in order to
bolster their efforts against Islamic militants.
In the past, China has played a major role in the development of Pakistan’s nuclear infrastructure, especially
when increasingly stringent export controls in Western countries made it difficult for Pakistan to acquire
materials and uranium enriching equipment from elsewhere. China has supplied Pakistan with equipment to
advance their nuclear weapons program, such as the Chinese help in building the Khushab reactor, which plays
a key role in Pakistan’s production of plutonium. A subsidiary of the China National Nuclear Corporation
contributed in Pakistan’s efforts to expand its uranium enrichment capabilities by providing 5,000 custom
made ring magnets, which are a key component of the bearings that facilitate the high-speed rotation of
centrifuges. China has also provided technical and material support in the completion of the Chashma Nuclear
Power Complex and plutonium reprocessing facility, which was built in the mid 1990s. China may also have
supplied nuclear technology to the Pakistanis, enabling Pakistan to become a nuclear state with an estimated
100 warheads as of 2011.
Economic relations
Economic trade between Pakistan and China are increasing at a rapid pace and a free trade agreement has
recently been signed. Military and technological transactions continue to dominate the economic relationship
between the two nations, although in recent years China has pledged to vastly increase their investment in
Pakistan’s economy and infrastructure. Among other things, China has been helping to develop Pakistan’s
infrastructure through the building of power plants, roads and communication nodes.
Both countries are keen on strengthening the economic ties between the two, and have promised to ‘propel’
cross-border trade. This has led to investment in Pakistan’s nascent financial and energy sectors, amidst a
surge of Chinese investment designed to strengthen ties. Pakistan has in turn been granted free trade zones in
China. The economic relationship between Pakistan and China is composed primarily of Chinese investment in
Pakistani interests. China’s increasing economic clout has enabled a wide variety of projects to be sponsored in
Pakistan through Chinese credit. Pakistani investment in China is also encouraged, and cross-border trade
remains fluid.
The support with which China and Pakistan give each other is considered important in global diplomacy, and
has been compared to Israel – United States relations. According to a Pew survey of Pakistan public opinion
last year, 84 percent of respondents said they had a favorable view of China and 16 percent had a favorable
view of the United States. These results showed that Pakistan is the most pro-China country in the world.
Similarly, the Chinese state-run media has portrayed Pakistan in a favorable light in regional issues.
Pakistan and China have long praised the close ties the two countries have with each other. China has been
referred to by Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf as their “time-tested and all-weather friend”, while in
return Chinese president Hu Jintao has referred to Pakistan as “a good friend and partner”.These statements are
noted by some observers as occurring after Pakistani relations with the United States or India have become
strained, such as after Osama Bin Laden was killed by American forces without Pakistan’s prior permission.
The 2011 Hotan Attack was a series of coordinated bomb and knife attacks that occurred in Hotan, Xinjiang,
People’s Republic of China on July 18, 2011. While many had always suspected Pakistani involvement in
terrorism in Xinjiang, the 2011 Hotan attack marked the first incident of acknowledgement of this by
authorities in China.
