Get ready to celebrate the life and legacy of Quaid-e-Azam on December 25! This day marks the birthday of Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the founder of Pakistan and also known as "Quaid-e-Azam" (meaning "Great Leader"). Not only was he a prominent political figure in South Asia, but he also played a significant role in shaping the country's independence from British rule. On this special day, people across Pakistan come together to honor and remember Quaid-e-Azam's contributions to their nation. It's a time to reflect on his vision for a free and prosperous Pakistan, and to celebrate his enduring legacy.
