Abstract

This research paper is consisted of an analysis of important strategies for promoting interfaith harmony through "Paigham-e-Pakistan". Pakistan is a multi-religious country with a Muslim majority while Christians, Hindus, Sikhs, Buddhists, Parsis and Baha'is are a minority. In this particular context, interfaith harmony is of paramount importance for the respect of fundamental human rights, political stability, cultural development, geographical security and economic prosperity in this country. The "Paigham-e-Pakistan" is a unified national narrative framed in the light of Islam and the Constitution of Pakistan. This document is a strong step towards ensuring an environment of interfaith harmony. In order to promote interfaith harmony through this national document, it is imperative that state institutions, political leaders, religious scholars, teachers, media persons, poets and the general public of Pakistan adopt effective strategies. This article is presented for the purpose of analyzing these strategies.
