Pak PM claims his forefathers made Quaid-e-Azam's ancestors Muslims

Islamabad, Oct 18 (ANI): Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani has claimed that that his ancestors had made the forefathers of the founder of Pakistan Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah Muslims, who were originally Rajputs.

According to The News, he said that Quaid's predecessor Lohana Rajput was non-believer in Islam centuries ago, but he embraced Islam after being persuaded by his (Gilani's) forefathers.

Gilani further said that the historians marked that event a Divine decree, as "we, the successors of Hazrat Ghous-ul-Azam, were to come in this part of the world and our ancestors were to make Quaid's forefathers Muslims and Quaid-e-Azam were to lay down the foundation of this Muslim state." (ANI)
