In Karachi ist eine große Anzahl von nichtmuslimischen Religionsgemeinschaften im Vergleich zu anderen pakistanischen Städten angesiedelt: Hindus, Christen, Parsis, Sikhs, Bahai, Juden, Buddhisten sowie Zoroastrianer.

Geschichte bearbeiten Die frühe Geschichte von Karachi stammt aus dem Jahr 327325 v. Chr., Als Alexander der Große die Stadt zum Campen benutzte und eine Flotte für Babylonien vorbereitete. Karachi wurde später den Arabern als Debal bekannt, von wo aus Muhammad bin Qasim seine Eroberungskraft in Südasien im Jahre 712 n. Chr. Führte. Die heutige Geschichte von Karachi beginnt, als es die Hauptstadt von Sindh in den 1840er Jahren gemacht wurde. Im Jahre 1878 unter dem britischen Raj, wurde die Stadt mit dem Rest der britischen Indien mit der Bahn verbunden. Es wurden öffentliche Bauprojekte wie Frere Hall und der Kaiserinmarkt durchgeführt. Im Jahre 1876 wurde Muhammad Ali Jinnah, der Gründer von Pakistan, in der Stadt geboren. Nach der Unabhängigkeit Pakistans im Jahr 1947 war Karachi eine belebte Metropole mit wunderschönen klassischen und kolonialen europäischen Stilgebäuden geworden, die die Stadtverkehrsstraßen ausstellten. Karachi wurde als Hauptstadt von Pakistan gewählt. 1960 wurde die Hauptstadt Pakistans von Karachi in den neugebauten Islamabad verlegt. Während der 1960er Jahre wurde Karachi als ein ökonomisches Vorbild auf der ganzen Welt gesehen. Viele Länder suchten Pakistans Wirtschaftsplanungsstrategie zu emulieren, und einer von ihnen, Südkorea, kopierte den zweiten Fünfjahresplan und das Weltfinanzzentrum in Seoul wurde nach Karachi entworfen und modelliert. In den späten 1980er und frühen 1990er Jahren brachen ethnische und politische Gewalt über die Stadt zwischen Muhajir Anhänger der Mohajir Quami Bewegung, ethnischen Sindhis und Punjabis und Staatskräfte aus. Infolgedessen wurde die pakistanische Armee eingesetzt, um den Frieden in der Stadt wiederherzustellen.
