Turkish
Peoples Love Pakistan
In
1920, the Indian National Congress also started supporting the Khilafah
movement. Mahatma Gandhi's campaign of civil disobedience based on non-violence
erupted from the womb of the Khilafah movement itself.
Interestingly,
Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah distanced himself from the movement because he
thought it would not succeed.
Before
that, the movement gained momentum, in 1922 Kamal Ata Turk with the help of
allies took over the country and deposed Caliph Abdul Hameed and abolished the
office of Khilafah, and thus the sun of this great empire, which had ruled with
glory for 623 years, set forever.
The
Indo Pak Muslim people were very enthusiastic to Participated in the Khilafah
movement with enthusiasm. Maulana Syed Abul Hassan Ali Nadvi writes: 'For those
who have not seen the period 1921-22, how Indo Pak was a volcano at that time,
the victory of the Allies ended their plans against the Ottoman Empire and the
Khilafah.
The
news of the attempt to do so had set fire all over Indo Pak, with mosques,
gatherings, madrassas, houses, shops and solitude, as there was no other
conversation except this.
The
people generously donated for the success of the movement. From all over Indo
Pak, women took off their bangles and earrings and donated them to the Khilafah
Committees.
Tradition
has it that a woman brought her child and handed it over to the Khilafah
Committee, saying that she had nothing else to donate.
The movement did not succeed, but the Turkish people still remember that passion. People who have gone to Turkey say that the respect of Pakistanis all over the world in Turkey is unmatched as in any other country.
