Prophet Muhammad pbuh advice to Pakistani muslims: Please avoid four things

Today August 14, sixty five years ago Pakistan won freedom for its countrymen and women to have the liberty to practice their faith freely without the yoke of other oppressive religions and laws emanating from their rulers.

Prophet Muhammad pbuh gave advice for muslims at large which if followed by Pakistanis it will rectify the the precarious position of self destructing towards which they are relentlessly moving: 

Narrated ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr: The Prophet said:

 “Whoever has (the following) four characters will be a hypocrite, and whoever has one of the following four characteristics will have one characteristic of hypocrisy until he gives it up. These are:

 (1 ) Whenever he talks, he tells a lie;

 (2) whenever he makes a promise, he breaks it;

 (3) whenever he makes a covenant he proves treacherous;

(4) and whenever he quarrels, he behaves impudently in an evil insulting manner.”

(See Hadith No. 33 Vol. 1)  (Book #43, Hadith #639)
