The Pakistan Movement has a central place in Pakistan's memory. The founding story of Pakistan Movement is not only covered in the school and universities textbooks but also in innumerable monuments.[110] Almost all key events are covered in Pakistan's textbooks, literature, and novels as well.[110] Thus, Fourteenth of August is one of major and most celebrated national day in Pakistan.[111] To many authors and historians, Jinnah's legacy is Pakistan.[112]

The Minar-e-Pakistan is a monument which has attracted ten thousand visitors.[113] The Minar-e-Pakistan still continues to project the memory to the people to remember the birth of Pakistan.[113] Jinnah's estates in Karachi and Ziarat has attracted thousands visitors.[114]

Historian of Pakistan, Vali Nasr, argues that the Islamic universalism had become a main source of Pakistan Movement that shaped patriotism, meaning, and nation's birth.[115] To many Pakistanis, Jinnah's role is viewed as a modern Moses-like leader;[116] whilst many other founding fathers of the nation-state also occupies extremely respected place in the hearts of the people of Pakistan.[117]
