Now I feel slightly connected. In fact my focus in the last blog in my signature below is on this topic itself and it will be nice to discuss it in threadbare detail. And I feel elated to hear views that resonate with my own.

One more point Maripat,i would be very interested to read your views on it.There is a question of MUSLIM NATIONALISM vs ISLAM AS A RELIGION ; Under political pressure from the west,the Umma produced a particular breed of leadership,who considered Muslims as a Party/hizb,who needed to be defended,uplifted,positioned back to their glorious past,but who had no or little interest in Islam as a Din OR they did have an interest in Din,but were misguided.Some examples : Sir syed Ahmad Khan ,Muhammad Ali jinnah......and the recent past Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto etc.Many more example may be found if we think.These were honest and sincere people ,but the their prime objective was Muslims....not Islam.
