		This was because the powerful bureaucrats both in Mufti and in Khaki, joined hands to seize political power.[1] With the appointment of General Mohammad Ayub Khan as Pakistan's first Pakistani commander-in-chief in early 1951, the civil and military bureaucracy, operating in tandem, began to tighten their grip on the institutions of governance.
		Mirza and Ayub were the two dominant leaders of the civil-military oligarchy that had decided that Pakistan could be governed best by tightening the grip of these two institutions on its government and people.
		Later when Iskandar Mirza was still president, General Ayub disclosed that it was at his initiative that the president imposed martial law.

	re: Resolving perplexities
		JS asks: "Did Mirza Muhammad-Ali begin opposing Abdu'l-Baha while Baha'u'llah was alive?" The Master was not in a leadership function while Baha'u'llah was still alive, so in that sense there was nothing to oppose.
		My personal view is that to Baha'u'llah, Mirza Muhammad Ali's profound jealousy of the Master was very evident; and that Baha'u'llah was well aware that when He, Baha'u'llah, left this world, the Master would have His hands full dealing with Muhammad Ali.
		I think it was an incentive for Muhammad Ali to follow the Master; that if he obeyed Him and turned to Him, he could have the leadership of the Cause.

	Islamic Pakistan
		The demand for Pakistan, as a separate state for Muslims was based on the "two-nation theory" that the Muslims of the South Asian sub-continent constituted a nation and that on the principles of national self-determination they were entitled to a homeland of their own.
		The two-nation theory was put forward by Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah as a counter argument against the viewpoint of the All India National Congress which argued that all Indians, irrespective of their religion, race, language and caste constituted a single political nationality.
		This was because the powerful bureaucrats both in Mufti and in Khaki, joined hands to seize political power.[2] With the appointment of General (later Field Marshal) Mohammad Ayub Khan as Pakistan's first Pakistani commander-in-chief in early 1951, the civil and military bureaucracy, operating in tandem, began to tighten their grip on the institutions of governance.

	A Brief History of Persian Literature
		Arabic continued to be employed in Iran, though on a decreasing scale, as Latin was used in Europe -that is, as a language of the learned.
		As such it was employed by Abu Ali Sina (Avicenna), al-Biruni, Rhazes, Al Ghazali and others; indeed, many of the most famous names in Arabic literature are those of men of Persian birth.
		In the opinion of the scholar Mirza Mohammad Qazvini, the name of Naser Khosrow should be added to those of the six poets - Ferdowsi, Khayyam, Anvari, Rumi, Saadi, and Hafez - whom "practically all" agree to consider the six greatest Persian poets, each in his special field.
