"I
have been telling you that the two-nation theory is like death for a
life of faith. I entreat with you to reject it, because the foundations
upon which it rests are built of sand. But the problem with you is that
you pay no attention. The Muslims that will be left in India, will have
to face the wrath of majority community, simply because you are willing
to divide the nation on religious lines. There’s no fury, no madness
like the frenzy of religion. Those on whose support you are counting
today, mark my words, will abandon you; leave you like homeless, exposed
to the vagaries of your own fate.” - Maulana Abul Kalam Azad, (11
November 1888 – 22 February 1958), while rejecting the division of
Indian sub-continent on the lines of religion.
