15 Aug 1947 (27 Ramzan, Raat Shabe Qadr Ki/Friday)
It coincided that year with Shab-e-Qadr or the 27th day of the holy
month of Ramadan. This day is considered most special by the faithful and
the night is spent in prayers.
In the years that followed,
Pakistan continued to celebrate its Independence Day on August 14. The
country celebrated its 67th Independence Day yesterday.
Yasser
Latif Hamdani, a Lahore-based lawyer and author of "Jinnah: Myth and
Reality", told PTI: "Pakistan was to celebrate its Independence Day on
August 15 but because of Shab-e-Qadr it was advanced by a day in 1948.
However, it stuck to its mistake and continued to celebrate following
Independence Days on August 14 too."
MUSALMAN AUR HINDUSTAN!
Mili Aazadi Jis-se Wo Shakhs Musalman Hi Tha,
Diya Hind ko Taj Mahal jisne
Wo Shakhs Musalman Hi Tha,
Aaj kehte Hain Kuch Log Ke Dehshat Gard Hai Musalman,
Shuru ki Jisne Jang-E-Aazadi ki
Wo Tipu Sultan Musalman hi Tha,
Jaha Lehrata Hain Tiranga Aaj BhiBadi Shaan Se,
Kiya Tameer Jisne Laal Qila
Wo Shakhs Musalman Hi Tha,
Sare Jahan se Achcha HINDUSTAN hamara,
Likha Jisne TARAN E- HIND wo IQBAL Muslman hi tha,
Yun Hi Nahi Azad Ho Gaya Azad-e- Hind,
Jab Azadi Mili Hind Ko Woh Mahina Ramzan Hi Tha.
