A sound education in mathematics is important for any modern knowledge based economy. Mathematics is now important in many areas where it has not previously played much of role, for example, in biology, social sciences etc. If the proper mathematical foundations are not laid during the formative years of childhood and adolescence, it becomes increasingly difficult to address this weakness in later life. The attempts to confront these shortcomings during retraining in later life are generally wasteful and only partly successful. The present study was designed to investigate the comparative effectiveness of problem-solving approach on the academic achievement of secondary school students in mathematics. The major objectives of the study were: (1) To determine whether the problem solving approach is more effective than expository strategy of teaching on academic achievement of students in mathematics. (2) To determine whether the problem solving approach is more effective than expository strategy of teaching on attitude of students in mathematics. (3) To examine the effect of problem-solving approach on the academic achievement of low achievers. (4) To measure the effect of problem-solving approach on the academic achievement of high achievers. (5) To find out the effect of problem-solving approach on the retention of students in mathematics. To achieve the objectives of study, following null hypotheses were tested: (1) There is no significant difference between the pre-test mean achievement scores of experimental and control group. (2) There is no significant difference between the pre-test mean achievement scores of low achievers of experimental group and control group. (3) There is no significant difference between the Pre-test mean achievement scores of high achievers of experimental and control group. (4) There is no significant difference between pre-test mean attitude scores of experimental group and control group. (5) There is no significant difference between the post-test mean achievement scores of experimental group and control group. (6) There is no significant difference between post-test mean achievement scores of low achievers of experimental group and control group. (7) There is no significant difference between post-test mean achievement scores of high achievers of experimental group and control group. (8) There is no significant difference between post-test mean attitude scores of experimental group and control group. (9) There is no significant difference between mean achievement scores of experimental group and control group and control group on retention test. (10) There is no significant difference between mean achievement scores of high achievers of experimental group and control group on retention test. (11) There is no significant difference between mean achievement scores of low achievers of Experimental group and control group on retention test. Secondary school students studying mathematics constituted the population of study. The student of 10th class of Govt. Pakistan Girls Higher School, Rawalpindi (Pakistan) was selected as a sample of the study. The pre-test post-test equivalent- group design was used for the study. The sample size consisted of forty eight students who were divided into experimental group and control group, each consisting of 24 students by equating them on their previous knowledge in mathematics, as determined through a pre-test. A treatment of planned problem-solving approach was provided to the experimental group while the control group was taught by expository strategy for a period of six weeks.

اہلیہ، مولانا محمد انور شاہ کشمیری

اہلیہ، مولانا محمد انور شاہ الکشمیری
حضرت الاستاذ مولانا محمد انور الکشمیری کے ہزاروں تلامذہ اورارادت مندوں کو جوبرصغیر میں پھیلے ہوئے ہیں، یہ معلوم کرکے بڑاملال ہوگا کہ حضرت موصوف کی اہلیہ جنھیں ہم سب’’اماں جی‘‘کہا کرتے تھے، جون کے آخری ہفتے میں داعی اجل کو لبیک کہہ کر اس خاکدان سے رخصت ہوگئیں۔ اناﷲ وانا الیہ راجعون۔
مرحومہ بڑی خوبیوں اوراعلیٰ صفات وکمال کی خاتون تھیں۔حضرت شاہ صاحب ایسے شوہر کی وفات کے بعد انھوں نے زندگی جس صبرورضا اوراستقلال و توکل کے ساتھ بسر کی ہے وہ انھی کاحصہ تھی۔کئی برس سے کینسر جیسے موذی مرض میں مبتلا تھیں۔سعادت مند اولاد نے بڑے سے بڑے علاج معالجہ میں کوئی کسر اٹھا کے نہیں رکھی لیکن وہ کینسر ہی کیا جس سے مریض جانبر ہوجائے۔اس مرض سے مرحومہ نے جوغیر معمولی تکلیف برداشت کی ہیں وہ یقینا ان کے لیے درجۂ شہادت کی ضامن ہیں۔ اپنی اولاد معنوی کے ساتھ وہی تعلق رکھتی تھیں جو خود حضرت الاستاذ کو تھا۔ان کانفس وجود ہم لوگوں کے لیے سرمایۂ خیروبرکت تھا۔ افسوس اب یہ بھی ختم ہوا۔ اﷲ تعالیٰ کروٹ کروٹ جنت نصیب فرمائے اور صدیقین اورشہداء کامقام عطا ہو۔آمین۔ [جولائی۱۹۶۷ء]

 

بیع سلم میں تلفیق بین المذاہب کی فعالیت: هيئة المحاسبة کے فتاوی کا تحقیقی جائزہ

To juxtapose various components in one issue or various issues, and to adopt various jurists’ points of views is called “Talfiq.” In the present radical age of science and technology, each and every social faculty is being radicalized particularly in finance; there are certain complications in the monetary systems of various countries. In this scenario, to concentrate on one school of thought and deduce the solution of these financial issues has now become impossible. That is why, Majlis-e-Shar’ii concentrate on “Talfiq between different school of thoughts”, where various parallel issues are solved. The Majlis has prepared a sharia standard where practicable and beneficial financial issues are elaborated. The jurists have elaborated various principles of “Bae-e-Salam”, and presented various relevant issues taking the insight from various scholars of Maliki, Hanafi, Shafi and Hambli schools of thoughts and focused on “Talfiq”. The present research paper the decrees related to Talfiq will be explored, where the jurists have adopted it. Whether it is allowed or prohibited. If it is allowed, to what extent?

Molecular and Biochemical Basis of Onion Basal Rot Management by Trichoderma Spp. and Sisymbrium Irio L.

The present study was undertaken to find out the antifungal constituents of ethyl acetate soluble fraction of methanolic leaf extract of London rocket weed (Sisymbrium irio L.). To achieve this objective, methanolic leaf extract was partitioned using various organic solvents including ethyl acetate. Different concentrations of ethyl acetate fraction were prepared which ranged from 1.562 to 200 mg mL-1, and evaluated against Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cepae isolated from diseased onion. A significant reduction in fungal biomass of 77–93% was recorded due to different concentrations of this fraction. GC-MS analysis revealed the presence of 7 constituents in the fraction. Among these 1,3-Cyclopentadiene, 5-(1-methylethyllidene) (26.31%) and Di-n-octyl phthalate (26.28%) were the most abundant followed by Acetic Acid, butyl ester (11.67%) and γ-Sitosterol (11.64%). Presence of these compounds may be responsible for antifungal behavior of this fraction against the pathogen of basal rot disease of onion.
