Of all the countries visited in this series - Iran, Turkey, Egypt - Pakistan's situation is the most perilous. Under the pressure of events since the 11 September last year, Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf is trying to eradicate the extremism which has taken root in his country over the last 20 years or so. Musharraf is trying to fashion 'jihad' into a struggle for education So who and what created the culture of "jihad" - or holy war - which General Musharraf has pledged to destroy, and can he succeed in destroying it?

As the country celebrates 55 years of existence, there is still fierce debate over its character and identity as a homeland for the Muslims of the Indian subcontinent. Above all, the debate centres on whether Pakistan should be a religious or a secular state. So how did Mohamed Ali Jinnah, Pakistan's founder, see Islam? It was a question I put to the writer and journalist Khaled Ahmed.

Pakistan Time and Date Pakistan Culture Back to Top Among the very rich, Western education and modes of living have eliminated pardah, but, in general, even among this group, attitudes toward women in society and the family are akin to those of Victorian England. Change is coming most rapidly among the urban middle-income group, inspired by increasing access to the West as well as by the entry of women into the work force. An increasing number of women do not observe pardah, and the education of women has been encouraged. Some women have gained distinction in the professions; some of Pakistan's leading politicians, journalists, and teachers are women. Social organization revolves around kinship rather than caste. Beradari (patrilineage) is the most important social institution. A preferable marriage for a man is with his father's brother's daughter, and among many groups marriages are invariably within the beradari. The lineage elders constitute a council that adjudicates disputes within the lineage and acts on behalf of the lineage with the outside worldfor example, in determining electoral allegiances.

Pakistan Time and Date Pakistan People Back to Top By the early 1990s Pakistan's population was divided into five ethnic groups, defined broadly. The Punjabis constitute the majority, with more than 55 percent of the population; the Sindhis account for another 20 percent, the Pathans and the mujahirs for about 10 percent each, and the Balochs for about 5 percent. There are subgroups within each of these five categories. The Arains, Rajputs, and Jatsall Punjabisregard themselves as ethnically distinct. Some groups overlap the five categories: for instance, there are Punjabi Pathans as well as Hazarvi Pathans. Some smaller groups, such as the Brohis in Sindh and the Seraikis in Punjab, are also ethnically distinct. Egypt Maps
