Hi
Couldn't resist the temptation to say something here.
floydian: You clearly seem to be missing the actual flow of the topic under debate. The social problems (Endless as you mentioned) doesn't define either if they previlige our state to be called as Secular or Islamic.

Muslim code of life ??? Following is our code of life:
1. Today a Muslim brother cannot go out with his real sister alone.
2. Women cannot participate in marathons
3. Karo kari, dynastic politics and feudalism
4. Forced marriages
5. Dishonesty, cheating, deception, bribery, bigotry etc
6. Attacks on minorities
7. Disrespect to our founding fathers
8. Violation of State laws as majority thinks these are un-islamic and British.
9. Selling dead meat, fake medicines, even fake liquor

The first point needs to be elaborated, maybe you wanted to mention some specific place. Secondly I am surprised on the parameter you selected in order to judge the Muslim code of life. How on earth would it be called "A muslim code of life" if women are permitted to participate in marathons? Most of the other issues are related to the regions where the evil of ignorancy has prevailed and superseded our moral values.

Famous columnist Hasan Nisar rightly says “ aj Iqbal ka momin maray huay janwar ka gosht bech raha hai”

As far as Hassan Nisar is concerned, he is not to be considered as an authority on the subject as I clearly heard him mentioning in a TV show that Iqbal cannot be rightly called as an intellect.
