- Islamabad , Oct 18 (ANI): Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani has claimed that that his ancestors had made the forefathers of the founder of Pakistan Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah Muslims, who were originally Rajputs.
According to The News, he said that Quaids predecessor Lohana Rajput was non-believer in Islam centuries ago, but he embraced Islam after being persuaded by his (Gilanis) forefathers.
Gilani further said that the historians marked that event a Divine decree, as we, the successors of Hazrat Ghous-ul-Azam, were to come in this part of the world and our ancestors were to make Quaids forefathers Muslims and Quaid-e-Azam were to lay down the foundation of this Muslim state. (ANI)
