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 sequal 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 'idoleogical' conversion
Iqbal's intelliectual influence
The real meaning of the Two-Nation Theory
The Lahore Resolution as a 'deferred' partition demand
The Cabinet Mission Plan
The Objectives 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 MP. Bhandara)
