The answer

Islam entered "Pakistan" through Sindh at the hands of Muhammad ibn al-Qasim al-Thaqafi in the year 92 AH, after a bloody battle with the army of King Dahir. The conquests continued until the year 96 AH, encompassing the lands of Sindh and Punjab, which are currently Pakistan and northern India. There is no reported hadith from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, regarding the virtue of Pakistan. However, the criterion for preferring people is piety; Allah Almighty says: (Indeed, the most noble of you in the sight of Allah is the most righteous of you. Indeed, Allah is Knowing and Acquainted) Al-Hujurat/13.
