اب انہیں ڈھونڈ چراغِ رخِ زیبا لے کر
آغا شورش کا شمیری ایک دن بھٹو صاحب کے پاس گئے تو بھٹو مرحوم نے کہا :آکسفورڈ یونیورسٹی میں میری لڑکی اور لڑکا دو نوں پڑھتے تھے ۔آپ بھی اپنی لڑکی اور لڑکے کو بھیج دو ،حکومت وظیفہ دے گی ۔
شورش نے کہا میں مشرقی طرزکا آ دمی ہوں ۔مغربی تہذیب میں اولاد کو بھیج کر خراب نہیں کر نا چاہتا ۔
تو بھٹو مرحوم نے کہا کہ شادمان کا لونی ،لاہورمیں دو پلاٹ پڑے ہیں ،تم کم ریٹ پر حکومت سے خرید لو اور ایک کو بیچ کر اپنا پلاٹ بنا لو ۔تو شورش نے جواب دیا :جناب سر چھپانے کے لیے جگہ موجود ہے ۔میں کوٹھی نہیں بنا نا چاہتا ۔
شورش اپنے گھر واپس آئے اور سارا قصہ اپنی بیٹی کو سنا دیا ۔تو بیٹی نے کہا کہ :ابو بھٹو صاحب پلاٹ دے رہے تھے تو لے لیتے ،سرکاری زمین ہے ہم پیسے جمع کرا دیتے ہیں بات صرف اتنی ہے کہ وہ کوئی اور لے جائے گا ۔بس ہمیں رعایت ہی مل جاتی ۔آپ نے ہمارے مستقبل کے ساتھ زیادتی کی ہے ۔
تو جواب میں شورشؒ نے فرمایا کہ :دنیا یہیں رہ جائے گی ۔میں بھٹو صاحب سے ایک ایسا تحفہ لے کر آ یا ہوں جو قبر میں مجھے کام آئے گا بس یہ بات کہنی تھی ۔
تحریک ختم نبوت کے اکابرین بھٹو مرحوم اور شورش ؒ کے درمیان کی گفتگو سے بالکل ہی لا علم تھے ۔کچھ ہی دنوں بعد شورشؒ بیمار ہوئے اور انتقال فر ما گئے ۔جنازے میں حضرت مفتی محمود صاحب ؒ مولانا غلام غوث ہزاروی ؒ ،مصطفی کھر ،کوثر نیازی ،معراج خالد ،حفیظ پیرزادہ اور دیگر حضرات شریک...
Almighty Allah created the man, endowed him with intellect and raised prophets among humanity for guidance. The scriptures were revealed by him which contained Divine commandments. Allah granted the prophets the power to show miracles to prove the truth of His message. Every prophet was endowed with miracles according to the need of hour and divine wisdom. The prophethood continued generation after generation and the prophet Muhammad (upon whom be peace and greeting) is the last in the chain of prophets. He was stengthened with countless miracles by Allah. Among these miracles, the Holy Qur`an is the greatest which is a universal and eternal miracle of the last prophet (peace be upon him).
This study intended to explore mothers’ perceptions regarding the role of play in early childhood (4-6 years old) in the context of upper Chitral, Pakistan. A cross-sectional survey design was employed within the quantitative paradigm and 8 ECD centers from a private organization were selected through simple random sampling. A total of 152 mothers participated in the study. A contextually relevant tool was developed and was validated by three experts, covering areas related general perceptions of play and its contributions to different domains in child development. SPSS 20 was used to analyze the data. Descriptive analysis was employed and Kruskal-Wallis H test was applied along with the pair-wise comparison to examine the statistically significant differences among mothers with different education levels in their views regarding play. The major findings of the study show that generally the sampled mothers had positive views regarding the importance of play and its contributions in early years. However, they were less likely in favor of their children spending a lot of time in playing, and preferred their children to finish their homework before play. Mothers also recognized the positive impact of play on different developmental domains i.e., social and emotional, cognitive, physical, language and literacy development of a child. The results of the Kruskal-Wallis H test and pair-wise comparison indicated that as compared to mothers with lower education degrees, the mothers with higher education degrees perceived play to be more helpful in some of the developmental domains: the general function of play, play in social and emotional development, and play in cognitive development. On the basis of the findings, it is recommended that this study can be further conducted on a larger scale and include other stakeholders e.g. fathers, teacher, grandparents etc. A qualitative research aspect can be added to obtain in-depth insights of mothers’ views regarding the contributions of play in early years. Furthermore, awareness sessions could be conducted especially for the mothers with lower education degrees. The policy makers and curriculum developers could ensure the involvement of parents in development and implementation of play based content and activities.
