Ruttie Bai’s father was not only a rich client, but also a close friend of Jinnah. One evening out of the blue Jinnah asked Ruttie’s father, ‘What’s your view on inter religious marriage?’ Ruttie’s father understandably was taken aback without having a context. It didn’t take him long to realise that his friend Jinnah was asking for his daughter’s hand.
As the caption of this article suggests and I seconded it earlier, the great man had so many sides about him.

Why writer did not not mention that Ruttie Bai is a Parsi Gujrati and a daughter of Jinnah’s rich claint. The marraige was against the wishes of the father of Ruttie Bai. Dina refuses to accompany him to Pakistan.

If you knew all these then why didn’t you pick up a pen and wrote all these things yourself. Instead of thanking the writer you are trying to be over smart. May be nothing new for you but for many of us who are never told about the character of this great leader it’s a blessing.

Other side of Jinnah? He has so many sides, that it is humanly impossible to explore all of them.
No one in the history of humanity could have inspired creation of three countries (Pakistan, India and Bangladesh) out of one. All the citizens of these three countries should remain eternally grateful to this great son of the soil.
