Download or read book Muslims against the Muslim League written by Ali Usman Qasmi and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The popularity of the Muslim League and its idea of Pakistan has been measured in terms of its success in achieving the goal of a sovereign state in the Muslim majority regions of North West and North East India. It led to an oversight of Muslim leaders and organizations which were opposed to this demand, predicating their opposition to the League on its understanding of the history and ideological content of the Muslim nation. This volume takes stock of multiple narratives about Muslim identity formation in the context of debates about partition, historicizes those narratives, and reads them in the light of the larger political milieu of the period. Focusing on the critiques of the Muslim League, its concept of the Muslim nation, and the political settlement demanded on its behalf, it studies how the movement for Pakistan inspired a contentious, influential conversation on the definition of the Muslim nation.

Download or read book Muslims of India Since Partition written by Balraj Puri and published by Gyan Publishing House. This book was released on 2007 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After 1947, Muslims of India, acquired a different form, in terms of their role, status, problems, challenges and opportunities. The partition of the country divided them in two and later three parts and led their political, bureaucratic and intellectual elite to migrate to Pakistan. The expert opinion was divided about their very future. W.C. Smith, a renowned scholar of Islam, for instance, believed that Islam in India would emerge as more progressive, dynamic, liberal and creative than Pakistani Islam . The fact that Muslims in India bear the same proportion in Indian Population as those in the world bear to the world population, make their experience of universal value. Religion has two components. One is set of theological beliefs and practices. Two as a basis of a social identity. Even those who do not follow its beliefs and practices and are agnostics or atheists are an integral part of a religious community. This book is primarily a study of Muslim community since partition. But some references to pre-partition lessons and Islam, based on its acknowledged authorities, were inevitable for the study of contemporary problems of the community. This study of micro problems of Indian Muslims is a humble contributioin to the vastly grown scholarly work on macro Islam. About The Author: - Balraj Puri, started his public career in 1942 as editor of a Urdu weekly in Jammu. He has written over a thousand articles and authored or co-authored around forty books.

Book excerpt: It takes a fresh look at the perennial problem of the divide between the Hindus and Muslims and the partition of India it led to. Historical reasons have been analysed in the study in considerable depth and conclusions have been drawn. It debunks the efforts made by some apologists of Jinnah to shift the blame for partition on to others' shoulders and delineates the growh of separtism from the earliest times.

Historical forces which helped in the creation of a separate nation have been studied.

Download or read book Partition s First Generation written by Amber H. Abbas and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-11-26 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mohammadan Anglo-Oriental College (MAO), that became the Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) in 1920 drew the Muslim elite into its orbit and was a key site of a distinctively Muslim nationalism. Located in New Dehli, the historic centre of Muslim rule, it was home to many leading intellectuals and reformers in the years leading up to Indian independence. During partition it was a hub of pro-Pakistan activism. The graduates who came of age during the anti-colonial struggle in India settled throughout the subcontinent after the Partition. They carried with them the particular experiences, values and histories that had defined their lives as Aligarh students in a self-consciously Muslim environment, surrounded by a non-Muslim majority. This new archive of oral history narratives from seventy former AMU students reveals histories of partition as yet unheard. In contrast to existing studies, these stories lead across the boundaries of India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. Partition in AMU is not defined by international borders and migrations but by alienation from the safety of familiar places. The book reframes Partition to draw attention to the ways individuals experienced ongoing changes associated with “partitioning”-the process through which familiar spaces and places became strange and sometimes threatening-and they highlight specific, never-before-studied sites of disturbance distant from the borders.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comprehensively covers all the aspects and angles, and the machinations that ultimately culminated in the partition of India, and creation of Pakistan. The book begins (Chapter-1) by deliberating on the questions of country, state, nation, nationhood, and nationality; and discusses India, Pakistan, Hindus and Muslims in that context. Chapter-2 deals with the interesting contrast on the attitudes of the Muslim leadership in the Muslim-majority provinces on creation of Pakistan with that of the Muslim-minority provinces like UP-the latter being the prime movers. Chapter-3 brings out the REAL reasons and details all the different factors responsible for the creation of Pakistan, categorised under three main heads: (a)British Vested Interests; (b)Islam, Muslim-mindset and Muslim leadership; and (c)Clueless Congress Leadership. Chapter-4 gives an overview of the main Muslim political parties; and the biographical details of prominent Muslim leaders. Chapter-5 presents detailed 'Timelines of Run-up to the Partition' starting from 1881. Chapter-6 'Timelines of the Partition Process' brings out all the interesting happenings leading to the actual partition triggered by Attlee's declaration of "Quit India" resolve on 20 February 1947. Chapter-7 discusses the 'Diabolical British-Muslim League Design' to ensure a highly truncated India by hiving off all of Punjab, Bengal and Assam to Pakistan. Chapter-8 deals with the arduous task of partition of assets between India and Pakistan ably handled under the guidance of Sardar Patel. The last chapter (Chapter-9) deals with the horror of partition and the irresponsible way in which it was handled by all the parties responsible-the British, the Congress leadership, and the Muslim leadership-especially the British. www.rkpbooks.com
