مولانا بشیر احمد خاں
افسوس ہے پچھلے دنوں دارالعلوم دیوبند کے نہایت لائق وفائق اورمشہور استاذ مولانا بشیر احمدخاں صاحب کااچانک انتقال ہوگیا۔ مولانا ریاضیات اور ہیئت میں برِصغیر ہندوپاک کے علماء میں اپنا جواب نہیں رکھتے تھے۔ اس کے علاوہ فقہ اورحدیث میں بھی اُن کی نظر وسیع تھی، چنانچہ دارالعلوم دیوبند میں ان فنون کی اونچی کتابیں اُن کے زیر ِ درس رہتی تھیں اور کبھی کسی طالب علم نے اپنی بے اطمینانی کااظہار نہیں کیا۔ علوم وفنون میں اس درجہ مہارت اور اُن میں شغف کے ساتھ مولانا میں نظم و نسق اور دنیوی معاملات و مسائل کو سمجھنے اور ان کے حل کرنے کی صلاحیت بھی بدرجہ ٔ اتم تھی۔ اسی بناء پر چندماہ ہوئے اُن کا انتخاب نائب مہتمم کے عہدہ کے لیے ہواتھا۔ عمر اگر چہ ستّر( ۷۰) کے لگ بھگ تھی، لیکن قویٰ مضبوط اور عام تندرستی بہت اچھی تھی۔ ۱ ۲؍ اگست کومجلسِ عاملہ کی میٹنگ میں وہ شروع سے آخرتک شریک رہے اوراُس کاکبھی وہم بھی نہیں ہوسکتا تھاکہ دو دن کے بعد ہی مولانا یک بیک راہی عالم ِبقا ہوجائیں گے۔یوں بھی عابد مرتاض اور خندہ جبین وخوش اخلاق تھے۔ اﷲ تعالیٰ مغفرت وبخشش کی نوازشوں سے نوازے اور اُن کے درجات اونچے کرے آمین۔ [اکتوبر۱۹۶۶ء]
The Problematic narration has always been under the special focus of the commentators of Hadith. This important branch of Hadith sciences, in fact, removes all objections that arise on the text of an authentic narration of the Holy Prophet (S.A.W). Mulla Ali Al-qari, being a famous commentator has opted for a comprehensive pattern in solving such problematic narrations in his famous commentar0y on Mishqat Al-masabih named Mirqat Al-mafatih. This article is an effort to explore his style by presenting ten examples from this voluminous commentary. Qari has at first, investigated the authenticity of such narration. He has tried to present the views and interpretations of his predecessor scholars such as Nawavi, Ibne-Hajar, Khattabi, etc. He seems to owe a clear viewpoint about this kind of narration that prophetic sayings after being confirmed and authentic as per principles set in Hadith Sciences, must be interpreted in a way that testifies the sanctity of that narration. This research concludes that problematic narrations have been interpreted by Muslim scholars of every age according to the knowledge they possessed. In this modern age of Science and technology, if any such narration has multi interpretations only one may be preferred which is supported by the available modern research It will surely make non-believers inclined to Islam and its eternal teachings.
Raman spectroscopy proved itself a non-destructive technique which is being used extensively for the characterization of biomedical media for disease diagnosis. It is based on the inelastic scattering of light. It provides the information about the vibrational modes of a molecule. A Raman spectrum of a biological media contains the molecular fingerprints which are the intrinsic characteristics of molecules. This information can be utilized to train various statistical models that as a result become a powerful tool for the characterization, diagnosis and discrimination in a variety of ways. In this thesis, the outcomes of three studies based on the Raman spectra of body fluids have been presented. First of all, a study was conducted to choose an optimal substrate to be used for acquisition of Raman spectra of body fluids. Aluminum was selected as the most suitable substrate for recording Raman spectra of human blood and sera samples. In first study, blood samples of healthy and breast cancer (BRC) female subjects were used to analyse the molecular variations caused by BRC. Partial least squares (PLS) regression based model was developed, which highlighted the bio-molecular variations found between both groups. Among these molecules lycopene, phosphatidylserine, qunoid ring, calcium oxalate and calcium hydroxyapatite were found positively correlated while tryptophan, proline, valine, glycogen and tyrosine were negatively correlated with BRC. In second study, human blood sera samples were analysed for the molecular variations due the presence of antigen at an early stage of dengue virus (DENV) infection. It was found that level of cytokines and DNA rises, while the level of proteins with alpha and beta conformations along with lectins lowers in the sera due to DENV infection at an early stage. In third study, human blood sera samples were analysed for the screening of hepatitis C infection. Hepatitis C infected sera were tested for the presence of antibodies by ELISA. Analysis of regression coefficients revealed that trehalose, chitin, ammonia and cytokines are positively correlated with the hepatitis C while lipids, beta structures of proteins and carbohydrate binding proteins like MBL are negatively correlated with hepatitis C.
