🧵 Dr.B.R.Ambedkar had a perfect judgement of Muslims and their behaviour.
Ambedkar was known for his forthrightness and his unapologetic expression of his opinions.
He never flinched from speaking his mind out,often weighing in on complex issues,politicians studiously avoid.

I give below his opinion on ISLAM :
Islam is a divisive religion,a faith that segregated people into rigid groups of Muslims and non-Muslims.
The brotherhood of Islam is not the universal brotherhood of man. It is a brotherhood of Muslims for Muslims only.

The loyalty of a Muslim is not based on his domicile in the country but on the faith to which he belongs.
The loyalty to faith Trump's his loyalty to the country where he lives...

The defect of Islam is that it is a system of social self-government and is incompatible with local self-government.
For Islam divides as inexorably as it binds. Islam is a close corporation and the distinction that it makes between Muslims and non-
Muslims is very real.

In a country which is not under Muslim rule, wherever there is a conflict between Muslim law and the law of the land, the former must prevail over the latter.
A Muslim will be justified in obeying the Muslim law and defying the law of the land.

According to Muslim Canon Law, the world is divided into two camps, Dar-ul-lslam (abode of Islam), and Dar-ul-Harb (abode of war). A country is Dar-ul-Islam when it is ruled by Muslims. A country is Dar-ul-Harb when Muslims only reside in it but are not rulers of it.

That being the Canon Law of the Muslims, India cannot be the common motherland of the Hindus and the Muslims.
To Muslims of India, a Hindu is a Kaffir and therefore, undeserving of respect and equal treatment

BRA's views on Partition :
Ambedkar initially opposed the partition of India and the creation of Pakistan for several reasons,
Cultural unity,Communal antagonism,Defense etc
He says, there cannot be Pakistan because of the cultural unity of India from immemorial times.

Even though there have been multiple issues in Indian society, the fact is that India is a single geographical unit and its unity is as ancient as Nature.
He said "the ancient beauty of India of multiculturalism cannot be destroyed just because Muslims were dissatisfied.”

Later Ambedkar supported the idea of a separate nation, Pakistan. Preferring Freedom of India to the Unity of India, he agreed to the Partitioning of India into Muslim India and non-Muslim India as the safest method of providing for the defence of Independent India.

To him, what was important was not just the winning of independence but ensuring the means of maintaining it, which depends on a safe army. As a realist, he was suspicious about the loyalty of those Muslims who were infected by communal antagonism.

In case of invasion by a foreign power, especially, the co-religionist to the Muslims of India, whose side would those Muslims in the army who believed in the Two Nation theory take: in defence of India or with the invaders?

In such circumstances, the army itself would be a potential threat to the independence of India. To that end, he claimed that Indians would be able to defend a free India when the army in India remains non-
political and unaffected by the idea of the notion of Two Nations.

He preferred absolute exchange of population between India and Pakistan once Partition took place.
Today, it is not just India which has been a victim of religious extremism but the entire world community appears to have witnessed it.

The problem of Muslim exclusivity was felt a headache for India by Ambedkar...
Many European countries such as Britain, France and Germany have faced ,the problem of religious aggression and Islamist radicalism.

BRA had said that until every Hindu does not come to India from Pakistan and until every Muslim does not move from India to Pakistan,then i will not accept this India-Pakistan partition.
What a judgement!
Even today we feel partition is incomplete and face the brunt of it.
