Publisher Description
Byline: Dr. Moonis Ahmar Two countries of South Asia, which during late 1970s and early 1980s had embarked on the process of Islamization were Pakistan and Bangladesh. In Pakistan, it was during the military rule of General Zia-ul-Haq where religion got not only state patronage but the process of Islamization aiming to transform the country as a 'pure' Islamic state was unleashed. In Bangladesh, the post-Mujib governments namely of Presidents Zia-ur-Rehman and Hossein M. Ershad tried to reverse the secular characteristics of the state of Bangladesh by declaring Islam as the state religion of the country.
