As a result, the construction of the history made by the conquerors becomes valid without challenge. A change comes when nations fight wars of liberation and become independent after a long and arduous struggle. During this process, leaders of liberation movements are required to use history in order to fulfil their political ends. Therefore, attempts are made to glorify the past to counter the causes of their subjugation. A comprehensive plan is made to retrieve their lost past and reconstruct history to rediscover their traditions and values and strengthen their national identity. However, in some cases, subject nations are so much integrated to the culture of their conquerors that they lose their national identity and align themselves with foreign culture. They accept their version of history and recognize the aggressors as their heroes who had liberated them from their inefficient rulers and, after elimination of their out- dated traditions, introduced them to modern values and new ideas.

  • Sweet Anecdotes of Four Beloved Imams
    “This is an end of the age, and those who are faithful will behold power and miracle of their Imam of the Age, but those having imperfect hearts will however behold miracle publicly, but falsify them. Those who don’t trust in the powers and supernatural events of the Prophet, Apostle and the Imam; their resemblance is that of the stone-blind person. If the mirror and a piece of an earthen vessel are given to the stone-blind person - both of them are alike for him.” - Imam Sultan Muhammad Shah, Bombay, 1st September, 1885 201 - Sweet Anecdotes of Four Beloved Imams By: Mumtaz Ali Tajddin S.Ali [email protected] 1.

  • News Clippings of Cases by Pakistan Dalit Solidarity Network - 2012
    News clippings of cases by Pakistan Dalit Solidarity Network - 2012 Another Hindu girl ‘forced to convert’ March 01, 2012 – The News Karachi: Mangla Sharma of the Pakistan Hindu Council claimed on Wednesday that another Hindu girl had been kidnapped and forcibly converted a week ago in Mirpur Mathello. This is not the first case of this nature as the community has been silently witnessing forcible conversion of their young girls for many months. Though the Pakistan Hindu Council does not have the latest figures, they believe that incidents of conversion are higher than reported in the media. Rinkle, a 17-year-old girl as mentioned in the FIR, was kidnapped while going to school one day, claims her family. The girl was reportedly converted later and married off at a madrassa. Three days ago, in her first statement after her kidnapping and conversion, Rinkle testified in front of the magistrate at a court in Deherki that she was forcibly converted and wanted to go back to her family. But Sharma says that rather than being sent to a Darul Aman, the girl was immediately sent to judicial custody until her statement was investigated. What angered the family the most was that during her two days in judicial custody, she was not allowed to meet them, while the boy whom she was married off to was free to meet and speak to her. Rochi Ram, a senior advocate of the Sindh High Court who has been witnessing the case for a week now, fears that Rinkle will eventually change her statement.
