MOHAMMAD ALI JINNAH WAS COVERTLY ASSASSINATED THROUGH A CONSPIRACY – ALTAF HUSSAIN

London – 16 November 2003
The Founder of Pakistan Mohammad Ali Jinnah was covertly assassinated through a conspiracy hatched by the troika of feudal lords, religious clerics and army generals.  MQM Founder & Leader Mr Altaf Hussain revealed this on Saturday while addressing a gathering of MQM Labour Division at the Khursheed Begum Memorial Hall at Azizabad in Karachi.

He emphasised that the oppressed people accept their suppression as fate and do not practically struggle to rid themselves from the oppressive system on their own.  However, a personality amongst them raises the voice for their rights and then a few oppressed people get together and slowly but surely they gain in numbers, strength and unity.  They face the wrath of oppressive rulers, offer sacrifices and remain determined then victory becomes their fate.  The system of oppression changes and such a transformation in favour of oppressive people is termed as revolution, which is brought about by the oppressed and deprived people.  He said that usually in the era after revolution, history is altered and the anonymous workers who practically participated and sacrificed are deserted and their names wiped out from the history books, whereas the big names are brought in the forefront.

Mr Hussain said that the big landlords and Sardars of Mecca levelled false accusations against the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) when the first revelation was ordained upon him and he started preaching the message of righteousness.   They offered bribes but the Prophet (PBUH) refused to accept them.  The study of Islamic history reveals that it was the middle class people and the slaves who accepted the message of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) and became his disciples.  These people were targeted with such a ruthless oppression that it became virtually impossible for the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) and his Companions to live in Mecca.  Therefore, after assessing the situation, the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) decided to migrate to Medina.  The battles of Badr, Uhad, and Khandaq were fought after migration and then the Treaty of Hudaibia.  During this period the Muslims increased in numbers and alongside the strength of their faith they also gained in military and economic power and the Mecca was conquered.  After the victory of Mecca, the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) pardoned the big landlords and feudal lords, who had been responsible for oppressing poor Muslims.  In the later time these landlords and feudal lords used their influences and transformed Islam from the system of khilafah to monarchy. Whenever and wherever wealth and power become the basis of decision making; instead of merit, wisdom and knowledge then evilness and wickedness will not only prevail but also flourish.  Unfortunately, this legacy is in vogue even in the Twenty-First Century – which is evident from the fact that true democracy is not present in a single Islamic country.   Mr Hussain said that everyone is aware of the current status of the Muslim Ummah militarily, morally, socially and technologically.  This is our own doing and no one else is to blame.  The Muslims deserted the true message of righteousness and started following the so-called religious scholars, who were employed by the landlords to alter the verses of Quran and Hadiths and issue decrees in their favour and to support the transformation from khilafah to monarchy.

Mr Hussain said that during 1857 Independence War, when those who actively participated in the Independence Movement were being hanged, the Muslim landlords became British agent. They were awarded huge areas of lands and titles.  Because of this treachery, Muslims became weaker and India was occupied by the British Empire.  All India Congress was established in 1885.  It had amongst its file in ranks Hindus, Sikh, Muslims and people from other religions. Founder of Pakistan Mohammad Ali Jinnah was not only a member but also an office bearer of All India Congress.  In 1906, Muslim League was formed and it was demanded that Muslims of Subcontinent must be provided equal rights proportionately according to its population in government machinery and all walks of life.  The Muslim League stressed upon the creation of Pakistan and started presenting arguments for a separate and independent State for the 100 million Muslims of the Subcontinent.  It is a historical fact that the Pakistan Movement did not begin from the geographical areas that today constitute Pakistan.  In the 1937 Elections, the landlords and feudal lords, of the areas comprising of present day Pakistan, openly opposed the Muslim League.  As a result, Muslim League lost from the Muslim majority provinces and the Unionist Party was victorious in Punjab.  When Congress announced that after independence feudal system will be abolished from India, the same toady feudal lords decided to join the Muslim League with a view to protect their fiefdoms because the Muslim League had not announced to abolish the feudal system.  Consequently, in the 1946 Elections, Muslim League gained victory from the Muslim majority provinces.

Mr Hussain said that after independence these feudal lords colluded with army generals to remove the leaders of Pakistan Movement from power.  Quaid-e-Azam did not die of natural causes – he was assassinated through a well-organised conspiracy.  When Quaid-e-Azam was coming to Karachi then the fuel tank of the ambulance sent to pick him up was deliberately kept low, which ran out after a few miles.  For hours the ambulance remained stalled in an isolated area causing deterioration to his condition, which resulted in his death.  The troika of army generals, their toady feudal lords and religious clerics are responsible for the conspiracy to covertly assassinate the Founder of Pakistan.  Similarly, the First Prime Minister of Pakistan Khan Liaquat Ali Khan was also assassinated in Rawalpindi by gunning him down in public.  After his assassination, the other leaders of Pakistan Movement were one by one removed from their offices.  During Ayub Khan’s era, all the other leaders of Muslim League who migrated from India were removed for their posts through ABDO.  In such a way the feudal lords completely hijacked the newly born country and a troika of army generals, feudals and religious clerics was formed.  The religious clerics and army generals have always been the biggest supporters of feudal system and feudal lords.

Mr Hussain said that in the beginning the feudal lords supported Ayub Khan and used absurd language against Mohtarma Fatima Jinnah during Elections.  At that time Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, following his father’s tracks, said that the people of Sindh are not dishonourable as not to support Ayub Khan.  However, when feudal lords considered the industrial revolution during the Ayub Khan’s era, as a threat, they backed the so-called religious scholars, who in turn orchestrated demonstrations resulting in the end of Ayub Khan’s Government and imposition of Yahya’s martial law.  At that time, Awami League led by Sheikh Mujeeb Ur Rehman was the only party in Pakistan which represented the people of middle and poor class and with no feudal in their ranks and file.  The troika of army generals, feudal lords and religious clerics branded the patriotic Bengalis as traitors, Indian agents and anti-State.  In 1970, the Awami League participated in the General Elections and came out victorious.  According to democratic norms, power should have been transferred to Awami League, but all the so-called religious scholars, with Jamaat-e-Islami in forefront, opposed this transfer of power to Awami League.   The jaagirdars and waderas did the same and were supported by the army generals.  Zulfikar Ali Bhutto became minister during Ayub Khan’s era and the British for being loyal to them awarded his father Sir Shah Nawaz Bhutto huge lands and the title of “Sir”.   Zulfikar Ali Bhutto threatened the members of assembly that their legs will be broken if they were to go Dhaka to attend the national assembly session.  The slogan of “Idhar Hum Udhur Tum” (we here and you there) was raised, transfer power to Awami League was refused and an army operation against the Bengalis was launched, which was fully supported by the so-called religious scholars of the then West Pakistan.  Jamaat-e-Islami in collusion with the army generals established Al-Badr and Al-Shams to massacre the Bengali Muslims in for the former East Pakistan.  It is ironic that on the one hand Muslims who participated in Pakistan Movement and refused to side with the British were being massacred in East Pakistan whereas on the other hand the troika of feudal lords, army generals and so-called religious scholars were expressing gratitude to Almighty Allah.

Mr Hussain said that even today these so-called religious scholars in collusion with the army generals and feudal lords are deluding the people in the name of religion.  Using the differences based on fiqah, they are branding Muslims as infidels and advocating murdering each other.  They raise the slogan of jihad to incite the religious sentiments of the public.  It is a fact that no individual or an organisation can announce jihad because it is the prerogative of the State or the Caliph.  Mr Hussain said that he does not consider himself to be a religious scholar but he is the grandson of Mufti of Agra City Hafiz Mohammad Ramzan and therefore appeals to the people that not to be hoodwinked by these religious illusionists.  He said that if these illusionist try to hoodwink by presenting distorted translation of the verses of the Holy Quran or Hadiths then instead of believing in them please contact me once for their true meanings and connotation.
