Dhampyre 0 Posted December 18, 2004 Well like i said in a post on another topic, Pakistan is 88% Muslim. The exact numbers elude me at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ImranAkhter 0 Posted December 23, 2004 Salaam You are out of line by about ten percent, Pakistan is 98% muslim, 2% are non-muslims, with hindu's in sindh region, parsi's, kadiani's, and christians. The current population of pakistan is 160 million, more than india which stands at about (at maximum) according to stats, 150 million.

Dhampyre 0 Posted December 26, 2004 :D Brother Imran Akhter, are you sure ? i find 98% highly improbable, could you please show us where you got this info from ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seven 0 Posted December 26, 2004 asalamu alaikum dont mess with these figures but i assure you these are correct... Muslim 97% (Sunni 77%, Shi'a 20%), Christian, Hindu, and other 3% Punjabi 48%, Sindhi 12%, Siraiki (a Punjabi variant) 10%, Pashtu 8%, Urdu (official) 8%, Balochi 3%, Hindko 2%, Brahui 1%, English (official and lingua franca of Pakistani elite and most government ministries), Burushaski, and other 8% want to know anything else about pakistan...? anything like about the country... i mean with a 97% Muslim population, what are pubs and bars and mass opioum production doing in the country... i bet the remaining 3% control all this dont they... hehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shamil5 0 Posted January 21, 2005 i moved to pakistan from london for two years, and i cant find faith anywhere,i guess it is about where u live.. i live in Karachi, sindh <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Assalaam Aleekum I moved to Khi 8 months ago from Umreeka, I couldn't find faith any where.

shamil5 0 Posted January 21, 2005 unfortunately, Karachi is full of racist people who vote for Pure secular racist party MQM, But it is good to know that MMA 4 seats from karachi and they also dicrease the vote bank of MQM in karachi. My family always gave their votes to MQM but this time most of my family members didn't vote, some vote for MQM and some vote for MMA.Insha Allah, in next elections, MQM will be gone. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Assalam Aleekum Please, don't generalize or stereotype the entire city. So there are 15million people in Karachi. How many voted for MQM. And how many decided not to vote for anybody. You also have to realize the ignorance level in some parts of the city. As for MMA, Its lesser of the two evils. If you have a close look at the all the parties in this alliance you will understand what I am trying to say. They are not true Islamic parties. They are first political than Islamic. And It doesn't work that way. Take Care Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iftikharalam 0 Posted January 21, 2005 yeah, MMA disappoint me in some issues but they are still better than rest. and I live in karachi, and i know attitude of this city's people, MQM and muhajir racism has deep roots here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Muwahhida 0 Posted January 26, 2005 :D I have met some muslims from pakistan in saudiarabia,and I find that some of them are real good muslims..MashaAllah.And I really envy them for being able to live in an all muslim environment. recently Dr.Israr Ahmed from Pakistan had come to India,I had attended his lectures and SubhanAllah he radiated eeman.With ppl like him in Pakistan ,I think there is still hope.InshaAllah :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anj 0 Posted January 28, 2005 (edited) :D :D for all the info. InshAllah in a couple of years I will move to Pakistan for a while - just to see if I like it there enough to live. I was born and brought up in London - but have visited Pakistan over 20 times on holiday. MashAllah many people I have met there have warmth in their hearts and I personally have felt my imaan strengthen just by being in the presence of so many muslims. Of course there are problems there, just like every other country - but for me, the essence is being surrounded by muslims - some parts of society may need encouragement to get closer to the Deen of Allah subhanahu wa'tala - but perhaps it is our duty as Overseas Pakistanis who mashAllah want to become better muslims, to go back to Pakistan and show people there that we are willing to give up life in the West purely to be surrounded by muslims. I would be interested to hear from more brothers/sisters who have moved, or are considering a move to Pakistan to express their views about leading an Islamic life in Pakistan. I personally want to get married there, and bring up a family there - because I do not feel it wise to bring up children in the UK - with all the fitnah here. If I find Pakistan is not my cup of tea, I may inshAllah try other countries in the East. What do you all think? A good place to bring up an Islamic family? :D Edited January 28, 2005 by Anj Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anj 0 Posted January 28, 2005 :D MashAllah akhi - good for you. May Allah subhanahu Wa'Tala give you every success in your move to Pakistan. Please keep us informed on how you get on.

Let us know how you find the job market out there, and whether you feel your imaan strenghten during/after your move. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ummammaar 0 Posted September 6, 2005 Do any of you know anyhting abt the Jamaat-i-islami?I've heard that its active in Pakistan. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> :D Yes, it was active, but not that much since Busharaf came. It is more political than "Islami." Alhumdulilah, the good thing is that they encourage seeking ilm and implementing it, and don't stick to just one book. They do not sugar coat this deen, and they have never forgotten about kashmir. As for moving there, it depends because the amount of practicing muslims varies from place to place. Big cities have some practicing ones, but also a lot of modernism. Northern Pakistan might be better. Basically avoid any loaded-with-shirk cities like some in Punjab and Sindh where not everyone is upon the Sunnah, and many who claim that worship the graves of "saints."

Pure_Iman 0 Posted September 28, 2005 Asalamo-alaikum! I m quite dissapoointed with the talks going on here about my country ….. Good and bad people are every where so is in pakistan,,,,, Some days back I read a news abt the wine factories found in saudiarabia,,,, By saying this ,,I m not saying that bars and bubs and others bad stuff are legal andd halal for pakistan,,,,but with good things,,there is bad things also,,,,, Pakistanis have been engaged in a quest to discover what it means to be a Pakistani, and to be a Muslim. In a country as diverse as Pakistan, this has yielded various interpretations over the years.Islam in Pakistan is seen as the founding and unifying ideology of the nation.so many muslims youngsters of pakistan both guys and girls are taking so much interest in religon,,thats why u can see people all walk of lives in ijtimas,,especially tableeghi jamat and dawaat-e-isami quite popular here . corruption is one of the biggest problem pakistan is facing,,,and i will balme the ploitical parties for this,,,all political leaders are same...even MMA is also bit like them.... while talking abt my city karachi,,do remember,,The port city of Karachi is Pakistan’s largest city and commercial heart, a big, busy metropolis with a hectic mix of ethnic and sectarian communities from all over the country and some foriegners also lived their plosish,thai and indians and bangladeshi,chinese etc , including a large number of rootless elements who have migrated there in search of jobs. karachi is a home of most modern people with most religous people..and middle lot also there,,,not only karachi,,happen to be correct for other big cities also,,, some link can give u more idea abt Islam in pakistan ,,, (www.)"you can't post links until you reach 50 posts_news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/south_asia/3211131.stm"]link 1[/url] (www.)"you can't post links until you reach 50 posts_content-usa.cricinfo(contact admin if its a beneficial link)/pakistan/content/story/219991.html"]link 2[/url] (www.)"you can't post links until you reach 50 posts_news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/south_asia/4711003.stm"]link 3[/url] but with all these things ,,,there are so many bad things in pakistan also,,but it is not good to make fun of it,,,,abt khilafah ,,,Allah knows better. sorry,,i am a little angry while posting this post,,,so forgive me,,,no offence intended,,, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
