Aamina Sheikh took the opportunity of Quaid-e-Azam's birthday to remind fans and followers of how the founding father emphasised on the need of women empowerment.

"Quit complaining, quit bickering and quit blaming. Jab mulq hamara hai, tou phir isay hum hee nay sanwaarna hai," the Cake starlet wrote on Instagram with a patriotic picture.

Talking about the equality, Aamina further added, "The foundation of Pakistan was laid by our founder and leader, Mohammed Ali Jinnah - the Quaid - with the fundamental principle that we are equal citizens of one state."

Talking about Quaid's famous 'The pen is mightier than the sword quote, the Maat star wrote, "‘The power of the 'pen’ was constantly highlighted by the Quaid as he rivalled it with the power of the 'sword,’ but he further stated, ‘the power of women is greater than both.’ We realise that power today, but let’s do so effectively by upholding all genders, working off of each other’s strengths and co-existing in harmony— after all we have to survive together."

Aamina went on to say, "Let’s do it with the tools of Unity, Faith and Discipline given to us. Let’s empower each other and forge ahead," she went on.

The former model has always been vocal about social issues. Earlier, she opened up about body shaming. “Please be mindful, create that nest, that safe space and respectfully raise your children to be able to take the shame out of body shaming! It begins with you!” she had written.
