A life sketch of Jinnah

What truly made Mohammad Ali Jinnah stand out from his contemporaries, was that he never worked for selfish gains. His struggle for Pakistan was in no way an attempt for glory or fame. He hid his deteriorating health condition from everyone as he knew that it would be taken advantage of by those opposing the Pakistan Movement. When he had been offered Knighthood for his services in the British Parliament, he refused by saying that he preferred to be known simply as “Mr Jinnah”. History has rarely produced such an example of selflessness and high moral standing. It is for this very reason that he is known as the beloved Quaid of the Pakistani nation.
