You are avoiding a basic problem. When mullahs can't come to agreement on basic things like whether beard is compulsory for men or hijab for women then how can these mullahs come to agreement over shia-sunni, wahabi-mutazilite among others. There is no way to impose Islam without slamming our boot on the ideology belief and thinking of another sect and Islamic school of thought.
Further the idea of imposing Islamic law on Pakistan may backfire when real scholars like Ghamidi are kicked out of the country and people like Muhammed Farooq Khan killed. These are perhaps the only few moderates and they are marginalized by the vocal conservative majority.
I am not arguing against Islam here, but for original Islam which was completely secular.
Come on. Who are you kidding. If you go check the Balochistan and KPK assemblies and to an extent each and every elected representative of the people is a mullah-JI even had a minister who had sent a son and many others to fight in Afghanistan. In FATA other than mullahs you can vote for nobody.
The actual existence of a ministry for Islamic affairs shows that the rulers are more interested in dictating how a person lives his life or on imposing Islam rather than promoting merit, equality and freedom. Is there a similar ministry for our Christian brothers? Are hindus given funds to go on yatra as some muslims are to go on Hajj?
The system is unfair. Hazrat Umer refused to pray at a church in fear it would be turned into a mosque. This was the ultimate respect our ancestors gave to non muslims.
These are some useful resources I use promoting secularism for muslims:

I agree. Tajikistan banned Hijab and beards, that is not secularism. Somalia banned christmas as did brunei. That is not secularism either. Secularism is the middle path and the promoted equality of all citizens of a state as one. Such a system was promoted by Allama Iqbal too:
“The religious doctors of Islam in Egypt and India, as far as I know, have not yet expressed themselves on this point. Personally, I find the Turkish view is perfectly sound.”
“The republican form of government is not only thoroughly consistent with the spirit of Islam, but has also become a necessity in view of the new forces that were set free in the world of Islam.”
