In 2005, Saleena Karim raised controversy when she proved that a famous
quote of M.A. Jinnah used in Chief Justice Munir's From Jinnah to Zia
(1979) was a fake. In this much-anticipated sequel to Secular Jinnah
(2005), the author provides an in-depth analysis of the ‘Munir quote’
and its extraordinary influence over those who argue for a 'Secular
Jinnah'. Containing independent and original research collected over
five years, her book presents a compelling case for a Jinnah who was
neither a secularist, nor a religionist, nor even a product of
secular-Islam synthesis.
This comprehensive work includes discussions on:
• Jinnah’s ‘ideological’ conversion
• Iqbal’s intellectual influence
• The real meaning of the Two-Nation Theory
• The Lahore Resolution as a ‘deferred’ partition demand
• The Cabinet Mission Plan
• The Objective Resolution of 1949
• Academic misconstruction of Jinnah
Plus exclusive never-before-published research including:
• Account of the first and devastating use of the Munir quote in the Constituent Assembly debates of 1954.
• The untold story of the Constitution (Amendment) Bill, 2006 to make
the 11 August 1947 speech a substantive part of the Pakistani
constitution (includes correspondence between S.Karim and late M.P.
Bhandara)
