کتاب اور صاحب ِکتاب کی نظر

کتاب اور صاحبِ کتاب کی نذر
لعل و گوہر سے گِراں تر اُن کی یہ تحریر ہے
ہے یہی تخت شہی ، اُن کی یہی جاگیر ہے
علم سے بڑھ کر کوئی بھی نعمتِ کبریٰ نہیں
علم طاقت، علم دولت، علم ہی شمشیر ہے
اِس میں غوطہ زن تمہیں ہونا ہے میرے دوستو
وقت کا جو خواب ہے اُس کی یہی تعبیر ہے
اختصار و جامعیت کی مرقعّ ہے یہی
بند کوزے میں سمندر ، ان کی ہر تقریر ہے
کس قدر گہری نظر ہے اِن کی سب حالات پر
وقت کے نباض کی منہ بولتی تصویر ہے
چار گوشہ اُن کی شخصیت ہے خود ہی دیکھ لو
اِک مدرس، ایک عالم ہے ،خطیب اور پیر ہے
ظلمتِ شب میں فروزاں نور کا مینار ہیں
سَیف ہے اُن کی زباں ، ہر لفظ میں تاثیر ہے
اک خزینۂ گراں مایہ ہے اُن کی پیشکش
ہر مدرس ، ہر مقرر کے لیے اکسیر ہے
حضرت راشد ؔ کی کاوش مرحبا ، صد مرحبا
اِن کا اِک اِک حرف تائبؔ نعرۂ تکبیر ہے

الاستدراك: أهميته وأثره في تفسير القرآن الكريم تبيان القرآن ومفاتيح الغيب نموذجا

Rectification is a terminology of Islamic Studies which means corrections of mistakes, completion of deficiency and clarification of ambiguity, it is a very special Quality of Islam due to its impacts and importance. Rectifications of Honourable Muslim Scholars on one another is a source for the innocency of this Ummah, here is the example of Rectification in the era of Sahahaba رضي الله عنهم and Tabieen and later, while the book of Eimam Al Hakim “Al Mustadrak Ala Sahehain” is an example of rectification at the time of Tabieen; in which he collects the narrations missed by Imam Bukhari and Imam Muslim in their books Saheeh Bukhari and Saheeh Muslim. The Honourable scholars follow this way in all the disciplines  of Islamic Studies especially in the field of Tafseer because they had rectifications on one another in their explanation of the Holy Quran. As for example Eimam Al Sayuti (911 AH) and Emam Aalusi (1270 AH) has rectifications in their explanations of Holy Quran on the Tafseer of Eimam Fakhr uddin Al Razi “Tafseer ul Kabeer”, while in our era Shaikh Ghulam Rasool Saeedi (1437 AH) follow the same way, and most of his ratifications in his Tafseer “Tibyan ul Quran” is related to Imam Razi. One thing which is unforgettable is that, these Scholars have maintained respect of personalities and opinions, furthermore they were mostly impartial in their research as well as tolerant while dealing with these issues even having different schools of thoughts etc. Their difference did not make them discourteous or impolite.

The Changing Roles and Status of Women in Cholistan, Pakistan

Social change is a natural and constant phenomenon. It also modifies function of social institutions with passage of time. Cholistan, a desert of the south west Asia, is socially and economically backward area lacking basic amenities of life. Despite of its aloofness, it has witnessed change in socio-economic roles of women. The present study “The Changing Roles and Status of Women in Cholistan, Pakistan" was designed to investigate socio economic roles of women and assess the social change in their way of life for the last over four decades. For this purpose, ethno-methodology was employed selecting 50 elderly women through experience survey and purposive sampling method. Protracted qualitative interviews and participants‟ observation technique were used for data collection. Findings showed that women in Cholistan were playing significant role in functioning of social institutions such as marriage, family, religion, economy, education and health but neither visible nor counted. As a family member, they were performing multifaceted jobs but household decision making rested in the hands of men. Marriage decision making rested with the elderly men of the family and clan. Their role was expanding from household chores to livestock care and wage labourer. They were contributing in economic activities without becoming owner of wealth and property. Women were dependent on men for knowledge and practice of religion. Women were informally educating next generation about survival skills in Cholistan and now few were getting education themselves unlike forty years back. In case of health, still problems were faced by them and were mostly dependent on home based remedies, shrines, spiritual healing and holy saying. The major change for them was the introduction of the new reproductive health facilities to some extent but they could not avail them due to cultural impediments and conservatism. The study concluded that women were living under miserable conditions due to non-recognition of their role and poor social status but rays of hope of their development also shine. With increased awareness, women were getting empowered in Cholistan as compared to past. The study suggested that availability of social services through social institutions can induce major changes in the lives of women in the Cholistan and this Pakistani experience can be a harbinger for other countries against the myth of desertification.
