Jinnah
QUAID-E-AZAM (The nation leader)
Muhammad Umair Bin Khalid 9-C

Think 100 times before you take a decision, but once that decision is taken, stand by it as one man.
Honorable president respected teachers and my dear fellows. Today I have got an ability to share my views about the great leader Quaid-e-azam
Quaid-e-Azam, Muhammad Ali Jinnah was born on 25th December 1876 at Vazeer Mansion Karachi, was the first of seven children of Jinnah bhai, a prosperous merchant. After being taught at home, Jinnah was sent to the Sindh Madrasah High School in 1887. Later he attended the Mission High School, where, at the age of 16, he passed the matriculation examination of the University of Bombay. On the advice of an English friend, his father decided to send him to England to acquire business experience. Jinnah, however, had made up his mind to become a barrister. In keeping with the custom of the time, his parents arranged for an early marriage for him before he left for England.
While in London Jinnah suffer two severe bereavements the death of his mother and his wife.
When Jinnah returned to Karachi in 1896, he found that his father's business had suffered losses and that he now had to depend on himself. He decided to start his legal practice in Bombay, but it took him years of work to establish himself as a lawyer.
It was nearly 10 years later that he turned toward active politics. First he took part in congress but soon in 1913 when the authority assured that the league was devoted to the political emancipation of India. There was no place for Muslims in the congress. By then he joined All India Muslim League.
"Ambassador of Hindu-Muslim unity”. Jinnah endeavors to bring about the political union of Hindus and Muslims earned him the title of "the best ambassador of Hindu-Muslim unity," an epithet coined by Gokhale.
It was largely through his efforts that the Congress and the Muslim League began to hold their annual sessions jointly, to facilitate mutual consultation and participation.
At this point, Jinnah emerged as the leader of a renascent Muslim nation. Events began to move faster. On March 22-23, 1940, in Lahore, the QUAID-E-AZAM adopted a resolution to form a separate Muslim state, Islamic Republic of Pakistan.
In recognition of his singular contribution, Quaid-e-Azam Mohammed Ali Jinnah was nominated by the Muslim League as the Governor-General of Pakistan.
Jinnah became the first head of the new state. He took oath as the first governor general on August 15, 1947. Faced with the serious problems of a young nation, he tackled Pakistan's problems with authority.
He was not regarded as merely the governor-general; he was revered as the father of the nation. He worked hard until overpowered by age and disease in Karachi. He died on 11th September 1948 at Karachi.
It was, therefore, with a sense of supreme satisfaction at the fulfillment of his mission that Jinnah told the nation in his last message on 14 August, 1948: "The foundations of your State have been laid and it is now for you to build and build as quickly and as well as you can". In accomplishing the task he had taken upon himself on the morrow of Pakistan's birth, Jinnah had worked himself to death, but he had, to quote Richard Simons, "contributed more than any other man to Pakistan's survival". He died on 11 September, 1948. How true was Lord Pethick Lawrence, the former Secretary of State for India, when he said, "Gandhi died by the hands of an assassin; Jinnah died by his devotion to Pakistan".
With faith, discipline and selfless devotion to duty, there is nothing worthwhile that you cannot achieve.
