    You are free; you are free to go to your temples, you are free to go to your mosques or to any other places of worship in this State of Pakistan. You may belong to any religion or caste or creed-that has nothing to do with the business of the State. (Mohammad Ali Jinnah on August 11, 1947. Presidential Address to the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan at Karachi.)

    .. gherz kuchh to tehzeeb seekho

     

                                   tehzeeb

     

    mujhay kal mera ek saathi mila

    jis ne ye raaz khola

    k 'ab jazba-o-shoq ki wehshatoN k zamanay gaye'

     

    phir wo aahista aahista chaaroN taraf dekhta

    mujh se kehnay laga

     

    'ab bisaat-e-muhabbat lapayTo

    jahaaN se bhi mil jaaye dolat samayTo

    gherz kuchh to tehzeeb seekho'
