مشفق خواجہ

مشفق خواجہ
یہ خبر نہایت افسوس کے ساتھ سنی جائے گی کہ کراچی میں ۲۱، ۲۲؍ فروری کی درمیانی شب میں جناب مشفق خواجہ صاحب کا انتقال ہوگیا، وہ اردو کے ممتاز محقق، نقاد، کالم نویس اور مزاح نگار تھے، خواجہ صاحب کو دل کی بیماری تھی، گزشتہ برس اس کا کامیاب آپریشن ہوا تھا، مگر پھر گردے کی تکلیف شروع ہوگئی جو بڑھتی گئی، انتقال سے ۴-۳ روز قبل طبیعت زیادہ خراب ہوگئی تو وہ اسپتال میں داخل کیے گئے جہاں انتقال ہوگیا، خواجہ صاحب کو علم و ادب سے بڑا شغف تھا، انہوں نے اپنی ادبی، تنقیدی اور تحقیقی نگارشات سے اردو ادب میں اہم جگہ بنالی تھی، وہ بہت اچھے مزاح نگار بھی تھے۔ خامہ بگوش کے نام سے اس فن میں اپنا جوہر خوب دکھاتے تھے، مرحوم کو دارالمصنفین سے بڑا لگاؤ تھا، ابھی دو برس پہلے اس کی اکثر کتابیں منگائیں تھیں، معارف بھی برابر ان کے مطالعہ میں رہتا تھا، ہندوپاک میں زرمبادلہ کی دشواری سے اہل علم کو بڑی پریشانی ہوتی ہے، معارف نہ ملنے سے خواجہ صاحب بھی بہت پریشان رہتے، اس کا علم جناب عبدالوہاب خاں سلیم صاحب کو ہوا تو وہ ان کا چندہ بھیجنے لگے اور تاکید کی کہ پیسے کی وجہ سے ان کا معارف نہ بند کیا جائے، اﷲ تعالیٰ خواجہ صاحب کی مغفرت فرمائے۔

کوئی دوسرا مشفق نہیں ہے
(ڈاکٹر رفیع الدین ہاشمی)
انسان اپنی خلقت اور سرشت میں گوناگوں آرزؤں، خواہشوں اور تمناؤں کا مرقع ہے اور اس کی پوری زندگی ان ہی تمناؤں اور آرزؤں کی تکمیل و تزئین میں گزر جاتی ہے، خاک کا یہ پتلا بالعموم خواہشات نفس کا اسیر رہتا ہے اور حیات مستعار کی پوری نقدی کھیل تماشوں میں صرف کردیتا ہے، زر و مال کی طلب اور...

پاکستانی نوجوان’’ فکری انحراف، اسباب اور سدباب‘‘ اسوہ حسنہ کی روشنی میں

The Pakistani youth are engaged day and night in a struggle for attainment of education, technology, and status. But what is deplorable is that they have forgotten their cultural values, ethics, code of life, and religious identity in order to unite with external powers in becoming part of the drive for development and they have become ignorant of their fundamental responsibilities as a member of the Muslim Ummah. What are the priorities and issues facing Muslims on the local, national, and international levels? Especially in Europe and America the Muslim youth are standing at the crossroads. They are undergoing a religious, ideological, and moral decline. History is eye witness to how the Muslim youth made valuable sacrifices in all walks of life and persevered in making incredible achievements. Moreover, it is the three-fold ideological, cultural, and emotional invasion of the anti-Islamic forces which has been the cause of a weakening of faith in the Muslim Ummah in general and the young generation in particular, since ideology is of primary significance for any nation, religion, movement, or group. It is true that nations are formed and sustained on the basis of ideology. The moment the ideological base is weakened, decline and dissolution become the fate of nations. They are unaware of how it is our foremost national duty and an urgent need to develop scholars who would propagate the Islamic agenda. Contrastively, the anti-Islamic forces are engaged in engendering their representatives. Hence, in order to safeguard our youth from ideological and religious dissolution it is necessary that educational and cultural steps are taken in society in advance so that our youth are provided with a wholesome environment free of ideological dissolution. An outline of the article is given below: The importance and significance of the prime of youth, The ideological propensities of the youth, The causes of dissension in youth, The remedy of dissension, are discussed in detail in this article.

Recent Advances in Detecting Outliers in Moment Distributions

The study of outliers is one of the challenges existed for at least several hundred years. Outliers are the observations which are stranger from the bulk of data. Sometimes outliers may not be noticed but most of the times they can change the entire statistical data analysis. At the earlier stage of the data analysis, summary statistics such as the sample mean and variance, outliers can cause totally different conclusion, e.g. a hypothesis may or may not be rejected due to outliers. In fitting regression line outliers can significantly change the slope and 2R . If the detection of outliers is not done properly before data analysis then it may lead to model misspecification, biased parameter estimation and incorrect results. It is therefore pertinent to identify the outliers prior to proceed further for analysis and modeling. Much work has been done in Univariate probability distributions. The objective of this study is to develop the methods which are used to detect the outliers in Univarite Moment Distributions. Two discordancy tests are developed to detect the single and two outliers from data characterized by Moment distributions. The exact distribution of developed tests does not exist, therefore for finding the Tables of critical values simulation study was used. The Tables of critical values are developed at 5% and 1% level of significance by means of a simulation study.Applications of two other methods which are based on sample skewness and Kurtoses have been extended to detect the outliers in Moment distributions. The Tables of critical values are also generated for these two methods at 5% and 1% level of significance on the basis of a simulation study. The performance rates of four methods are found at various sample sizes by means of a simulation study. It is worth mentioning that methods ?1 and ?2 only indicates the presence of outliers in the data, while methods ?1 and ?2 not only identify the presence of outliers but also specify the particular outliers.
