تمنا

تمنا
میرے گلے پہ۔۔۔!
جب تو عین، شین، قاف کا تیر چھوڑے
پھر برزخ کی حقیقت میں جمال کا پردہ چاک ہو کر!
عالم اسرار۔۔۔صاحب قرار کی کماں ٹوٹ جائے
میں ہونٹوں پر مسکراہٹ سجائے!
سینے پر ہاتھ رکھے۔۔۔صحرا میں تڑپتا رہوں
ریت لہو سے غسل کرے۔۔۔!
میں بس ایڑیاں رگڑتا رہوں
پھر ہوائیں میرا طواف کریں
فاختائیں اپنے گھونسلے چھوڑتے ہوئے!
ٹیلئہ بہار کی طرف ہجرت کرنے لگیں
جس ’’مالکا‘‘ سے تو نے مجھے جدا کیا تھا
وہ تین قدم پہ کھڑی۔۔۔!
وا عشقا۔۔۔ وا عشقا کہتے ہوئے روتی کرلاتی رہے
تو تطہیر صحرا میں ۔۔۔لہو سے سیراب ریت پر اترے
’’عین‘‘ سے عقیل ؑبہار کا خطبہ ظاہر ہو
’’قاف‘‘ سے قطع یدین کا اسلوب ظاہر ہو
’’شین‘‘ سے۔۔۔!
شہادتِ سورہ عشق کی حجت تمام ہو
یوں عشق بھی۔۔۔مقام محمود پر نظر آنے لگے

Revelation in Hinduism: A Muslim Reading

Hinduism has been viewed by Semitic religions as a religion devoid of revelation. Early, Medieval and modem Muslim and Christian writings have often portrayed Hinduism as pagan even satanic while Hindus for millennia have claimed to be divinely revealed. Is Hinduism really a revealed religion and if so, what kind of a revelation does it have? In what manner does the divine reveal himself and who are the recipients of this revelation? To what extent is this concept different from ours? Does the process of revelation continue or has it been discontinued? These are some of the more significant questions that this article shall engage with. It clarifies that Hindus have books which they consider revealed and look upon much as Muslims look upon their Qur’an. The most significant of these among a majority of the Hindus are called the Vedas, literally, knowledge. It goes on to introduce the Vedas with respect to their various parts and content, what Hindus largely believe about it and how they ensured its preservation and safe transmission to later generations through various intricate and elaborate memorization techniques. The article highlights the importance of rishl, the recipients of these revelations, their kinds, characteristics and role in the process of revelation. The article contends that there is much in common between Rishland Semitic prophets with respect to their characteristics but that the similarities do not end here. Rather there is much more common ground to be explored with respect to revelation and its contents and its conveyors than meets the eye.

Impact of Quality Management Practices on Service Competencies: A Study of Third-Party Logistics Service Providers in Pakistan

A lot is written about third party logistics, its evolution and rapid growth especially in western world and few of the Asian countries. Most of the research done on third party logistics is from customers’ perspective regarding their needs, reasons and motives to outsource logistics services and the standard of service what customers are looking for or what they are getting. The flip side of it, is the perspective of logistics service providers which is, mostly confined to national and international surveys and demographic statistics. About a decade back, World Bank started calculating Logistics Performance Index and ranking all internationally trading countries on the basis of their logistics infrastructure and performance. In Pakistan this industry was completely ignored and was rather unknown to academic researchers until the China Pakistan Economic Corridor came into lime light. Even then, it cannot be said that this industry got due attention from academic researchers or even from government regulatory authorities to properly regulate this industry. It is only in the last decade that researchers in Pakistan turned their attention towards this industry to evaluate its capacity, span of services provided, quality of service and the performance of third party logistics service providers. This research is unique in nature, as never before the service competencies of logistics industry in Pakistan were evaluated using internationally recognized quality standards and competency measures. To study the impact of quality management practices on service competencies of third party logistics service providers in Pakistan, this research picked the two most renowned and internationally recognized models: The Malcolm Baldrige National Quality (MBNQ) model for assessing quality management practices and Michigan State University Global Logistics Research Team (MSUGLRT) model for service competencies. The impact of six quality management factors of MBNQA named 1- Leadership, 2- Strategic Planning, 3- Customer Focus, 4- Measurement, Analysis and Knowledge Management, 5- Human Resource Focus and 6- Process Management was studied on the four service competency identified by MSUGLRT named 1- Positioning, 2- Integration, 3- Agility and 4-Measurement. The data on various items for these latent constructs was collected from more than 200 firms and all necessary analyses using AMOS and SPSS packages were done to find out the direction and extent of the impact of quality factors on service competency. Also the effect of Social Capital and Company Strength as moderating variable was observed. The results clearly identified the Strategic Planning and HR Management Focus as the factors highly impacting service competencies of third party logistics service providers in Pakistan. Interestingly, but surprisingly, the role of Leadership and Knowledge Management was minimal. Especially the negative impact of Leadership indicates the area of immediate further attention. The moderating variable also had very significant relation with service competencies but they were unable to significantly affect the individual impact of other quality factors. This study highlights the areas where logistics firms in their individual capacity, the logistics industry as a whole and concerned government bodies must immediately concentrate to be able to extract expected benefits from the China Pakistan Economic Corridor.
