It all starts from here Every nation dreams of progress, every community is in search of peace, every race is desirous of safety and harmony! Like all, Muslims too wish to lead an honorable life, with peace and tranquil, of contentment and satisfaction Well ! at present it is beyond our scope to survey the needs and outcomes of other nations. Presently we are concentrating upon the Islamic world, and only they are our primary focus.

However, at this juncture, two issues need to be well understood. Firstly, the meaning of "nation" and "community"? and secondly, how can the earnest desire of individual and collective success could bear fruits?

"Nation", according to the sociologists, "is a group or community among human beings, linked together by a common heritage, traditions, customs, history and system of economy, and is habituated in a particular geographical location, desirous of living under the influence of a particular government", and its members consider that all reforms and multidimensional development and progress is only possible through nationalism.

They believe that all the evils would fall apart, the day the nationalism succeeds, and would be first day of heavenly bliss. However, it is noteworthy that Islam call upon the group of it's believers as "community" or "Ummah" rather than a nation.1 and also distinguishes the qualities and distinctions of Ummah, from the known concept of a "Nation".

The details of these qualities reveal that in no way the thinking approach, and the ___________________________ The Holy Quran has also frequently referred to the word "nation", but at instances where the concept of the "collective being" of the Muslims is being introduced, the Quran adopts the phraseology of "ummah" or "millat'. Therefore in the 78th verse of Surah Hajj it is mentioned. "This is the "millat" of your father lbrahim.

Allah has named you "Muslim" in the old scriptures, and Quran too bears the same name for you" Also in the 143rd verse of Surah al-Baqar, it guides us as follow: "Oh Muslims! in this way have we designated you as an Ummah on the right path (Ummah-e-was'at), so that you may be a witness upon the people of the world and the Prophet be a witness upon you" aims and objectives of the followers of Quran, match with the thinking and objectivity of the others.

The 'Deen-e-Hanif (True religion)" bases "Ummahism" neither upon caste or creed, nor on heritage or colour.
