In the 1940s, the leadership of All India Muslim League actively participated in
the public debates to minutely discuss and popularize the idea of Pakistan as a
“Modern Islamic State”. To define the state as “Islamic” and “modern”, the
leadership focused on its geographical rationality, economic viability,
relationships with India, role of minorities, type of democracy, and the role of
religion and ulama in the new state. The article argues that the idea of Pakistan
was sufficiently imagined by the League’s leadership which was determined to
collide two, presumably opposite, categories of “religion” and “modern” in the
concept of a new state.
