1) Nationalism (Assabiyyah - in Arabic) is a disease. ?? ????? ?? ?? ?? ?? ???? ?? ??? ??
The only thing that ties us all together is Aqeedah and Emaan. That is, the belief in one Creator ( Allah SWT) and His last and final messenger being the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).
Allah SWT says: "The faithful are but brothers..." - [Qur'an 49: 10]
Allah SWT did not mention all Pakistanis to be brothers, or all Indians to be brothers, or all Chinese to be brothers, and so on and so forth. Rather, all believers.
2) Every solider who died fighting for his/her respective nation is most likely not a Muslim, let alone a 'shaheed'. The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said this, not me.
"He is not one of us who calls for 'asabiyyah, (nationalism) or who fights for 'asabiyyah or who dies for 'asabiyyah." - [Source: Abu Dawud]
In summary, I give you a message from Allah SWT:
"O you who believe! Fear Allah as He should be feared and die not except in a state of Islam. And hold fast together all of you to the rope of Allah, and be not divided among yourselves; and remember with gratitude Allah's favours on you; for you were enemies and He joined your hearts in love, so that by His Grace you became brothers; and you were on the brink of the pit of fire, and He saved you from it. Thus Allah makes His signs clear to you that you may be guided." - [Qur'an 3: 102-103]
And Allah SWT knows best.
