Backsliding secular Turkey has aligned with theocratic fascism in the form of Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.
" . . . debates surrounding Pakistan’s Islamic identity came to dominate political discourse, and in 1956, the state adopted the name of the "Islamic Republic of Pakistan", declaring Islam as the official religion . . ."
Early in the history of the state of Pakistan (12 March 1949), a parliamentary resolution (the Objectives Resolution) was adopted :
Sovereignty belongs to Allah alone but He has delegated it to the State of Pakistan through its people for being exercised within the limits prescribed by Him as a sacred trust.
- The State shall exercise its powers and authority through the elected representatives of the people.
- The principles of democracy, freedom, equality, tolerance and social justice, as enunciated by Islam, shall be fully observed.
- Muslims shall be enabled to order their lives in the individual and collective spheres in accordance with the teachings of Islam as set out in the Quran and Sunnah.
- Provision shall be made for the religious minorities to freely profess and practice their religions and develop their cultures.
This resolution later became key source of inspiration for writers of Constitution of Pakistan and is included in this constitution as a preamble.
MAY THEIR SHITTY GOD GO WITH THEM
