عہد خلفائے راشدین میں قوانین ِحدود و قصاص کی عملی تنفیذ
خلفائےراشدین رضوان اللہ اجمعین کادور بہترین زمانہ شمار کیا جاتا ہے کیونکہ ان چاروں حضرات کا منہج نبوت والا تھا۔اس دور میں قرآ ن و سنت کے مطابق فیصلے کیے جاتے تھے۔ یہ دور گیارہ ہجری بارہ ربیع الاول حضرت ابو بکر صدیق (م:13ھ) کی خلافت سے شروع ہوتا ہے اور اکیس رمضان المبارک چالیس ہجر ی حضرت علی (م:40ھ)کی شہاد ت پر ختم ہوتا ہے۔ اس دور میں تقوٰی ،علم میں پختگی اور اخلاص کو مد نظر رکھا جاتا تھا ۔ قا ضی فیصلہ کرنے میں آزاد ہوتا تھا ۔ اسلامی حدود بہت وسیع ہو گئی تھیں۔ مسلمان پینتیس لاکھ مربع میل پر حاکم تھے ۔ ایران ، شام ، بلاد آرمینیا ، مصر اور ایران ان کے زیر نگین تھے بلکہ اسلامی فتوحات نے مشرق اور مغرب میں نہایت وسعت حاصل کی ۔ عربوں کے علاوہ بہت سی دوسری اقوام حلقہ بگوش اسلام ہو گئیں ۔ خلفائےراشدین انصاف کی فراہمی اور مساوات پر بہت زور دیتے تھے، یہاں تک کہ خود خلیفہ وقت رعایا کے ایک عام فرد کی طرح عدالت میں حاضر ہوتا، جیساکہ حضرت عمر(م:24ھ) قاضی مدینہ زید بن ثابت (م:45ھ)کی عدالت میں خود حاضر ہوئے اور حضرت علی (م:40ھ)کی حاضری کوفہ شہرمیں قاضی شریح کی عدالت میں ہوئی اور فیصلہ بھی خلیفہ وقت کے خلاف ہوا۔ اگر ان کاکوئی قریبی رشتہ دار کسی جرم کا مرتکب ہوتا تو اسے عام لوگوں کی طرح سزا دی جاتی، جیسا کہ حضرت عمر نے اپنے بیٹے کو شراب نوشی کے جرم پر سزا دی اور عام مصری شخص سے حضرت عمرو بن عاص (م:51ھ)کے بیٹے کو کوڑوں سے پٹوایا۔ اس عہد کی ایک اور خصوصیت یہ بھی تھی کہ حضرت عمر نے اسلام میں پہلی دفعہ جیل خانوں کا...
Christianity in itself is a reformative offshoot of Judaism rather than a separate faith. The massage of Jesus Christ was directed at Jews and Jew formed the core of his early follower. In his early stage he was respected, honored and welcomed by his jew community. But as soon as he projected the universalism of Torah (Pentateuch) and declared Judaism as Inclusive religion the community fell in hostility toward him and led him to crucify. In his early theology he gave the message of love, respect and tolerance to the light of a candle in room. The New Testament and it satellite portions unveil his and of his early followers teachings and their theological trend and behavior towards other nations and faiths. In this article the above mentioned teachings and theological policy of Jesus Christ and Saint Paul, an immediate stream him of Christianity has been abstracted from New Testament. It may help today’s Christianity to revise it religious teachings toward Islam and blasphemous behavior other religions and hence minimize the political tensions throughout the world.
Background: Although antiretroviral treatment is expanding in sub-Saharan Africa, the World Health Organization advocates for integration of palliative care with HAART because pain, other distressing symptoms and complex psychosocial challenges persist throughout the HIV trajectory. Palliative care improves the outcome for patients with HIV and may complement antiretroviral treatment by increasing adherence through better management of side effects from the treatment, providing patient and family-centred holistic care, and giving end-of-life care when necessary. However, integrating what have become two disciplines is challenging. Aim: To study the implications for palliative care provision in the context of changing policy to universal access to HAART for people living with advanced AIDS (PLWA) in Uganda. Research questions addressed in the study included: 1. How do patients with advanced AIDS (stage 1Il and IV) and with palliative care needs and their families experience care delivery and receipt over a period of 8 weeks? 2. How is the morphine roll-out programme among advanced AIDS patients operationalized in Uganda? 3. What are the challenges faced by health care workers involved in delivery and implementation of integrated palliative care for patients with advanced AIDS? 4. What are the views of key opinion leaders on development of palliative care policies in Uganda? Methods: A mixed methods approach was employed. The study comprised of three phases. In phase one, a consecutive sample of 30 newly enrolled patients advanced AIDS (stage III & IV) and their carers were recruited at Hospice Africa Uganda and followed up for 8 weeks. Qualitative interviews were conducted with patients and their carers at one time point and an outcome measure using African Palliative Care Association-Palliative Outcome Scale (APeA-POS) was used to assess changes in their experiences over 8 weeks, following access to palliative care. In phase two, 10 palliative care staff members participated in individual interviews and one focus group to explore the challenges they faced in delivering services to patients. Phase three explored, by the use of interviews with 7 key stakeholders, the broader context of palliative care policy development and opinions about key priorities for the future. Findings: Out of 30 patients, 14 were male and 16 were female. They ranged in age from 18-60 years. The majority of patients were bed-ridden and experienced distressing symptoms related to advanced AIDS and AIDS-defining cancers which necessitated timely palliative care intervention. The key findings of the study relate to the range of physical symptoms experienced
