مولانا احمد سعید

مولانا احمد سعید
افسوس ہے کہ مولانا احمد سعید صاحب صدر جمعیۃ علمائے ہند نے ۴؍ دسمبر کو انتقال فرمایا، مولانا مرحوم ان علمائے دین میں تھے جن کی پوری زندگی ملک و ملت کی خدمت میں گزری۔ وہ جنگ آزادی کے نامور مجاہد تھے اور اس راہ میں بارہا قیدوبند کی مصیبتیں جھیلیں، مولانا کفایت اﷲ صاحب اور مولانا حسین احمد صاحب مرحوم کے بعد اس طبقہ کے علماء میں ایک مولانا احمد سعید ہی کی ذات رہ گئی تھی۔ وہ بھی ہم سے جدا ہوگئے۔
افسوس کز قبیلۂ مجنون کسے نماند
دینی، ملی اور سیاسی خدمات کے ساتھ مولانا بڑے خوش بیان خطیب تھے، دلی کی ٹکسالی زبان بولتے تھے، باتیں کرتے تو منہ سے پھول جھڑتے تھے، شرافت اور وضعداری میں بھی دلی کی پرانی تہذیب کا نمونہ تھے، طبعاً بڑے زندہ دل اور خوش مذاق تھے جس محفل میں بیٹھتے تھے اپنی باتوں سے پوری محفل کو مائل کرلیتے تھے۔ عرصہ ہوا ایک سیاسی مقدمہ کے سلسلہ میں ان کو کچھ دنوں اعظم گڑھ میں رہنا پڑا تھا۔ دارالمصنفین میں قیام تھا۔ اعظم گڑھ ہی کی عدالت سے ان کو سزا ہوئی اور یہیں کے جیل میں قید ہوئے، اس لیے مولانا کو قریب سے دیکھنے کا موقع ملا، اسی زمانہ سے ان کے حسن اخلاق اور پرلطف صحبت کا جو نقش قائم ہوا تھا وہ اب تک باقی ہے۔ مولانا اپنے دور کی آخری یادگار تھے۔ اس لیے ان کی وفات سے ایک دور کا خاتمہ ہوگیا، اﷲ تعالیٰ اس خادم دین و ملت کو اپنی بے پایاں رحمت و مغفرت سے سرفراز فرمائے۔
(شاہ معین الدین ندوی، دسمبر ۱۹۵۹ء)

 

ISOMERISM: IS THERE MISCONCEPTION?

Nine articles have been analyzed containing research results on misconceptions about isomerism. Analysis was conducted to examine the potential to causes emergence of the misconception. The analysis result are expected to be useful for teachers in learning for the same concepts. At least the teacher can avoid misconceptions that have happened before and innovate to find the right learning strategy. Isomerism can be categorized as a defined concept so that students are expected to be able to use rules for the purpose of classifying objects or events. The analysis showed 31 misconceptions experienced by grade 11 students to prospective chemistry teachers on isomerism concept. Thirty-one misconceptions are classified into three groups based on students' abilities needed to understand the concept of isomerism. The three groups are: (1) understanding the definition and application of rules; (2) spatial understanding; and (3) microscopic understanding. At this time only eleven misunderstandings were discussed, namely misunderstandings whose causes belong to the group (1). As an indicator caused misconception is inability of the sample to classify objects/events based on the attributes or characters indicated by the object/event. To teach a defined concept, it is recommended to use a strategy that contains detailed explanatory definitions and rules, examples and non-examples, and the elaboration process. In order to increase student reasoning, it is recommended to use a isomerism concept logic scheme
