Words of Quran-e-Paak

“And all of you should hold fast to this Code (Quran) together and you should not be divided into sects and groups. Remember Allah's Benediction when he brought you together when you were at each other's throats (so-close that you called each others brothers). This strong brotherhood was formed on a strong ideology which was the great blessing. Before this (ideology) you were standing at the edge of fire and He pulled you away from this. This is the way Allah makes His Directives clear so that you might choose the right course.” Surah Al-e-Imran Surah # 3, Verses 103

Words of Prophet (P.B.U.H.)

Nu`man bin Bashir (May Allah bepleased with them) reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said,

"The believers in their mutual kindness, compassion and sympathy are just like one body. When one of the limbs suffers, the whole body responds to it with wakefulness and fever". (Al-Bukhari & Muslim)

Words of Quaid-e-Azam

"We are Muslims believe in one Allah, one Prophet (peace be upon him) and one Quran. So it is also essential for us to be one nation because strength lies in unity. Pakistan will break into pieces if we consider ourselves as Punjabis, Sindhis, etc. first and then Muslims and Pakistanis. We all are now Pakistanis, not Balochis, not Pathans, not Sindhis, not Punjabis."

Words of Allama Iqbal

An individual person has no significance in his solitude. His identity, significance & stability is “as a unit of a united nation” Just like a wave of ocean which is strong and powerful as long as it’s within the ocean; as soon as it falls out of the ocean, its magnificence & strength is lost; its existence ends.

Dua of Unity

There is no creature or entity worthy of worship except for Allah, the (true) God, the One and we submit to Him (alone). There is no creature or entity worthy of worship except for Allah, and we do not worship anyone or anything other than Him, being sincere in our faith (to Him) even though the polytheists detest this! There is no creature or entity worthy of worship except for Allah, our Lord and the Lord of our fore-fathers. There is no creature or entity worthy of worship except for Allah, the One, the One, the One, the One who kept His promise and helped His servant and granted esteem to His army. And who left the other parties alone and abandoned (them). So then to Him belongs the Kingdom and (to Him belongs) the Praise. He gives life and causes to die, and He causes to die and He gives life. And He is the Ever Living and shall never die and in His power is the goodness and He has power over all things.
