[[Pakistan]] has several official '''national symbols''' including a flag, an emblem, an anthem, a memorial tower as well as several national heroes. The symbols were adopted at various stages in the existence of Pakistan and there are various rules and regulations governing their definition or use. The oldest symbol is the [[Lahore Resolution]], adopted by the [[All-India Muslim League|All India Muslim League]] on 23 March 1940, and which presented the official demand for the creation of a separate country for the Muslims of [[British Raj|India]]. The Minar-e-Pakistan memorial tower which was built in 1968 on the site where the Lahore Resolution was passed. The national flag was adopted just before independence was achieved on 14 August 1947. The national anthem and the state emblem were each adopted in 1954. There are also several other symbols including the national animal, bird, flower and tree.

|'''Islam in Pakistan''' existed in communities along the Arab coastal trade routes in [[Sindh]] as soon as the religion originated and had gained early acceptance in the Arabian Peninsula. The connection between the Sind and [[Islam]] was established by the initial Muslim missions during the [[Rashidun Caliphate]].

[[Pakistan]] was created as a separate state for Indian Muslims in [[British Raj|British India]] in 1947, and followed the parliamentary form of democracy. In 1949, the first [[Constituent Assembly of Pakistan]] passed the [[Objectives Resolution]] which envisaged an official role for Islam as the state religion to make sure any future law should not violate its basic teachings. In 1956, the elected parliament formally adopted the name Islamic Republic of Pakistan, declaring Islam as the official religion.
