علامہ ابوالفضل عباسی چریا کوٹی
ماہ رواں کے افسوس ناک علمی حادثوں میں دومشہور مسلمان مصنفین اور اہل قلم کی وفات ہے، ایک سید امیر علی بالقابہ اور دوسرے مولوی سید وحیدالدین سلیم پانی پتی، اس سے پہلے چند ماہ ہوئے کہ ایک اور کہنہ مسلمان فاضل مصنف علامہ ابوالفضل عباسی چریا کوٹی وکیل گورکھپور کی وفات کی خبر ملی تھی ان بزرگوں کا یکے بعد دیگرے یوں رخصت ہوتے جانا علم اور قوم کی بدنصیبی ہے۔
علامہ ابوالفضل عباسی چریا کوٹی استاذنا محمد فاروق صاحب یاکوٹی کے شاگرد تھے اور ان چند مستثنیٰ علماء میں تھے، جنہوں نے اس عہد میں جب انگریزی کفر سمجھی جاتی تھی، انگریزی تعلیم حاصل کی، چنانچہ علی گڑھ کالج کے ان طلبہ میں تھے، جو اس کے سب سے کم دیرپا مشرقی شعبہ علوم میں داخل تھے، مرحوم وکالت کے ساتھ ہمیشہ مذہبی و تاریخی تالیف و تصنیف میں مصروف رہتے تھے، چنانچہ قرآن پاک کا اردو ترجمہ الاسلام، تاریخ اسلام، انگریزی میں قانون محمدی کی بعض کتابیں، انتخاب دواوین اور ایک دو اصلاحی افسانے یادگار چھوڑے، ’’الاسلام‘‘ اور ’’تاریخ اسلام‘‘ مرحوم کی بہترین تصنیفات ہیں، مرحوم کی عمر غالباً کم و بیش ستر (۷۰) ہوگی۔ (سید سلیمان ندوی، اگست ۱۹۲۸ء)
This research is about the effect of text meaning on the constitutional rule that related to the Islamic Sharia principles. The Islamic Sharia principles are the source of legislation in the Arab constitutions. It will also look in the impact of this constitutional rule on organizing the principle of equality among citizens in various fields; equality in front of the law and judicature, and equality in rights and freedoms. In particular, this research highlights how the impact of text on the constitutional rule affects on organizing the equality between Muslim and non-Muslim citizens, also between men and women of Muslim citizens. Thus, this research has been split into four topics that addressed respectively as follows: First, what is Islamic Sharia and Legislation in Islamic Fiqh (doctrine). Second, the semantics of multiple formulations of the Islamic Sharia principle as a source of legislation in the constitution. Third, the principle of equality in both, the Islamic Sharia and the positive law. Finally, the impact of the text on the Islamic Sharia principle of Arab constitutions in organizing the equality principle among citizens. The research concluded with set of results that can be summarized as follows: Every formula that has been used in the constitutional rule of the Islamic Sharia principle in the Arabic countries has a different semantics and results that lead to different obligations in the way of organizing the equality principle in the legislative bodies either in constitution's document or in ordinary laws. Also, the research concluded that the Islamic Sharia as a public principle doesn't conflict with the positive law in recognizing the equality principle among citizens in different fields, but the conflict is in the understanding and application of some fields of equality among citizens in different religions and genders. The researcher came with set of recommendations including clarifying wording of the text that related to the Islamic Sharia principle in the Arab constitution rules. These clarifications should prevent any other interpretations. In addition, the researcher suggested to adopt this formula: the original principles of Islamic Sharia is the main source of legislation. Also, formulations of equality principle among citizens in all its manifestations in the constitutions must be consistent with the original Islamic Sharia principle. Also, all the texts that related to the equality among citizens, and between men and women should included the sentence "with no conflict with the original Islamic Sharia principles".
Functional and health endorsing benefits of various foods are often attributed to their phytochemistry. The bitter gourd holds potential in improving the food products quality owing to its incredible versatility in compounds. In the current exploration, different bitter gourd varieties and their parts were evaluated for their therapeutic potential and utilization in value added baked products. For the purpose four types of bitter gourd powders i.e. whole fruit, seedless fruit, seeds and extracts were prepared. Compositional analysis revealed that bitter gourd variety FSD-Long along with parts is rich source of minerals, ascorbic acid, carotenoids, tocopherols (α, β & γ), phenolic acids, saponin, charantin, alkaloids, momordicin, fatty acids and dietary fiber.However, extract possessed higher concentration of water soluble substances than otherparts. All parts ofFSD-Long inhibited in vitrolipid peroxidation and scavenged DPPH radicals significantly. Afterwards, all parts of the selected variety (FSD-Long) were added in cookies at various levels to enrich the formulation. Considering the results of characterization and product development; whole fruit, flesh and seed part @ 3%, and extract @ 0.5% were selected for further use in efficacy study. The experimental rats modeling comprised of three segments including normal, hyperglycemic and hypercholesterolemic Sprague Dawley rats. Initial trials were conducted in normal rats; indicated that diets prepared with bitter gourd parts hold hypoglycemic and hypocholesterolemic perspectives. In the second section, streptozotocin injection was used to induce diabetes mellitus in rats and observed a decrease of 42.22% glucose in group fed extract based cookies. Furthermore, level of insulin increased in bitter gourd part cookies upto 58.64% indicated that the experimental diets hold insulin tropic potential. Final efficacy trials were conducted involving hypercholesterolemic rats. In control group, momentous increase in serum cholesterol, triglycerides and LDL levels was observed. All parts attenuate the cholesterol 18.79 to 40.17% triglycerides 25.97 to 37.01% and LDL 14.49 to 26.09%. All parts reduced the serum glucose significantly by enhancing insulin secretion. From the present study, it is deduced that bitter gourd extract can be supplemented in food products for the management of these maladies.
