Re: Maudodi Sahab
Maududi can be best described as an conservative politician. Which in the prospective of South Asian politics means a religious politician. On top of that he was a prolific writer and had charisma. And as politicians usually work towards gaining support in order to gain power, they do flip-flop on their own beliefs in order to do that. Maududi did just that.
I don't think he actually believed against the idea of Pakistan but he was definitely against Jinnah and most other Muslim leaguers who were western educated. He disliked Jinnah in particular for his secular ways and his eloquent\snotty English. So being a politician he did what most politicians do, go against the ideas of your opponent to gain support and rally your base.
Had he actually believed that Pakistan as 'Paledistan' he would have never migrated to it. But looking at the partition he knew that he is far more likely to get in power in Pakistan than in India. Had he stayed in India, he would have certainly been over shadowed by more prominent Congress Muslims like Abdul Kalam Azad etc.
