Adaab!
YahaaN Inglistaan ki sard fazaon mein aksar ingrez log yeh mazaakh karte hain keh tum 3 mashoor Belgians ka naam lo..! Ab mujhe yeh khyaal aata hai ke kya hum 10 pakistanion ke naam bataa akte hain jo ke aalami sattaH par azeem kehlaaye jaa sakein.
Aur iss mein hum Qaid-e-Azam ka naam nahin lengein kyonke that’s too obvious; aur na hi Allama sahib ka kyonke woh pakistan ban-ne se qabl hi visaal farmaa chuke the..so , can you name 10 great pakistanis?
...I can only think of the following
Fabulous topic!
10 great Pakistanis? Has there been that many? I can't think of 10 but here's my choice;
1) Imran Khan. For all his faults he's a true world figure who didn't just rise to the top of his profession but was/is also a great ambassador for his country. True patriot.
2) Jahangir Khan for kicking so much non-Pakistani a$$ at squash.
3) Jansher Khan. Same as above.
4) A Pakistani mujahid who died fighting the Forces of Darkness in Kargil.
5) Another Pakistani mujahid who died fighting the Forces of Darkness in Kargil.
6) As above.
7) As above.
8) As above.
9) As above.
10) As above.
Wow! There are more great people than I thought!
There are many more. Sadly, no women to list. I am sure there are plenty of them, but are kept under cover!
What about Liaqat Ali Khan?? Aur un jaise aur bohut se Pak heroes??
Sirf 10 to ab hamare Nishan-e-haider paane wale haiN

Hmmm…well there r many many true Pakistanis..if we start counting…papers might be finshed.
In my point of view..
All those shaheeed’s and mujahids of Kaargil
The list is so loooooooooooooooooooooooong..

C ya…
The lists so far includes either political hasteeyaan or showbusiness people.
I agree with Xtreme: All those Mujahid's in Kashmir, or the 'deemed ordinary folk' which includes strugglers trying to make a day's wage, or all those women whom have been exploited in numerous ways are the top Pakistani. Uun ko Mera Sallaam!
Why is zia held so highly in pak. i thoght that since the industrialization and economic growth took in Ayub era, Ayub would be held highly. just curious.
hmm... lot of good names mentioned ...
but i didn't see
-Benazir, she is very famous.
-The Pakistani from SIENFELD, everyone knows him :)
-Oh also the pakistani guy who was on FBI top 5 most wanted
-And did i forget to mention .. ME :)
I forgot to mention (thanks Bhola#1)...Yousuf Ramzi. Now there's a real modern day icon.
AMTH!
First of all..I think my point has been misunderstood; haaN , if we include people whom PAKISTANIS already consider as great..phir to list bahut lambi ho jaayegi. Also, I too would put Imran Khan/Jahangir Khan/Jansher/Miandad etc. BUT for the fact that, all said and done, sports is a pretty trivial thing in the scheme of things. But I suppose for his cancer hospital etc. IMRAN would still get in. The same holds true for musicians and showbusiness people..excluding these, who is left?? Real greatness tab hoti hai jab dushman bhi azeem samajhe..
[zaahir hai ke all the mujahideen are great as are all of the awliya-e-karaam and the the sincere ulama of Ahle Sunnah–but most people will not have heard of them.]
HaaN, Liaqat Ali Khan sahib I too agree with. Ayub Khan I do not know enough about.
With these restrictions, it suddenly gets v. difficult doesn’t it?

(Ps to the qadiani who put that list of qadianis—ha ha ha!! la’nat hai.)
Where are our Ghazalis/Ibn Arabis/Ibn Sina’s/Ghalibs/Aurangzaibs etc. of today?
http://www.pak.org/gupshup/frown.gif
Sirf yeh naam aate hain:
Sayyedi Amir al Millat HaDrat Pir Sayyid Jama’at Ali Shah Sahib quds sirruhu
Pir Sayyid Karam Shah SAhib al Azhari quds sirruhu
…these are two awliya og international fame in the islamic world…
What did Fatima Jinnah do?
Why isn't M.A. Jinnah on the list ??
Actually we should have a list of 10 great Muslims of the subcontinent !!
Actually if u put non muslims out, Dr. Salam can not be put on list since officialy he was not Muslim though he thought otherwise.
I change my list. I put Faiz in and drop Ghulam Ali. Ahmad faraz and Sadaat hasan Manto will be other noteworthy additions but there is no place,
Top 10 Muslims of subcontinent would be tough, maybe after 1940 1)jinnah, 2)mujib, 3)kazi nazrool islam, 4)maulana azad, 5)faiz, 6) sardar jaffery,7) imran, 8)bade ghulam ali khan, 9)dilip kumar 10)noor jehan. Still u have nargis, madhubala, rafi, talat, ali akbar khan, zakir, allarakha, 3 khans of bollywood, begum akhtar and many many others.
I'm sure I'm not the one ;)
No one is Greater then the JAAWANs who fought 3 wars for our poor pakistan. No leader is great in our 52 years of history, no matter how you look at it!!! LEADERS DID NOT SAVE THE COUNTRY THE PEOPLE DID WHO GAVE THIRE LIVES FOR IT, LEADERS WERE STILL ON THEIR KURRSI, AND PEOPLE WERE DEAD!!! The credit goes to the shaheeds not the leaders!!!
