خواجہ کمال الدین
عیسوی سال کے خاتمہ پر ۲۸؍ دسمبر ۱۹۳۳ء کو عیسوی مذہب کے سب سے بڑے نقاد اور عیسوی ممالک میں اسلام کے مشہور مبلغ خواجہ کمال الدین نے افسوس ہے کہ وفات پائی، وہ کئی برس سے سل کے مرض میں مبتلا تھے اور اس حالت میں بھی وہ تصنیف و تالیف میں ہمیشہ مصروف رہے، احمدی جماعت میں ہمارے نزدیک وہ عام مسلمانوں سے سب سے زیادہ قریب تھے، اس لئے ان کے مشن کا بار اٹھانے میں عام مسلمان اور امراء نے بھی شرکت کی تھی اور شاید یہ راز نہ ہو کہ مسیح الملک حکیم اجمل خان مرحوم اور مولانا شبلی مرحوم نے ان کی امدادی تحریکوں میں سب سے زیادہ دلچسپی لی، مولانا مرحوم نے ایک دفعہ علماء کے بالمقابل نوجوان تعلم یافتوں میں سے خواجہ صاحب کے عزم تبلیغ کو سامنے رکھ کر یہ شعر خود انہیں کے خط میں لکھا تھا:
کامل اس فرقہ زہاد سے اٹھا نہ کوئی
کچھ ہوئے تو یہی رندانِ قدح خوار ہوئے
گوہم کو خواجہ صاحب کے بہت سے خیالات اور تاویلات سے اتفاق نہیں تاہم یہ کہنا اظہار واقعہ ہے کہ انہوں نے ۱۹۱۲ء سے لے کر ۱۹۳۲ء تک اپنی پوری بیس برس کی زندگی اسلام کی تبلیغ اور اس کے محاسن کی اشاعت اور یورپ میں اسلامی لٹریچر کی فراہمی میں صرف کی اور نیز یہ کہ ان تصنیفات کے بڑے حصہ کا موضوع ’’احمدیت‘‘ نہیں ’’محمدیت‘‘ ہے، افسوس کہ ان کی موت سے دنیا کی مذہبی بزم میں ایک اہم جگہ خالی ہوگئی۔ اﷲ تعالیٰ ان کے ان اعمال صالحہ کے صدقہ میں ان کو اپنی مغفرت سے نوازے اور ان کی لغزشوں سے درگزر فرمائے۔
میں نے ان کو سب سے پہلے ندوہ کے اس اجلاس لکھنؤ ۱۹۱۲ء میں دیکھا جس میں مصر کے عالم سید رشید رضا صدر...
Humankind has been granted a special status due to its being vicegerent of Allah on earth for he has been entrusted with the responsibility to keep order in the world according to the directives of its Creator. Humans are guided by Prophets in history. Some of these Prophets have got greater value, sphere and depth of influence on humanity due to different factors. Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) is the last Prophet of Allah, for the eternity and whole humanity. After him, Islam is completed for all times to come. Islam is a complete code of life; education and training constituting its crux. Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) was greatly concerned and cognizant of education and training of his followers which is evident from multifarious events of his life. Major emphasis was laid on training coupled with education and both are, thus, inevitably interlocked with each other. It is clear that education was considered an assimilation of knowledge and training was taken as its reflection in daily life. The verses of the Holy Quran and sayings of the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) bear a perfect testimony to this aspect of foremost significance. The earlier people in the fold of Islam were much concerned about training and nurturing, hence they avoided mere memorization of facts. The present paper is an attempt to discover the compatibility between education and training in the light of the paradigm of secret of the Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) of Islam.
Personal Software Process (PSP) developed by Software Engineering Institute, Carnegie Mellon University (SEI-CMU) is for software engineers to better understand and improve their personal performance. It has been adopted for use in industry and academia and is also utilized for process improvement in twenty one key process areas of Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI). The main emphasis of the personal process is on requirement, design, code, test, and post-mortem phases of software development. Identification of risk at system structure level for estimation of cost and schedule are listed as the key focus of PSP. However, current implementation of PSP does not provide any process for risks, schedule and cost estimations at the architecture level. Neither does PSP body of knowledge provide any support for architectural knowledge area elements. Since the architecture influences all other phases of development life cycle and also has its proven benefits, its integration into the personal process should augment PSP with those additional benefits. Moreover an exploratory study performed within local Software Process Improvement (SPI) practitioners also revealed that process improvement is itself a problematic area in the local industry which is a cause for poor SPI, thus a local perspective is clearly established for CMMI based SPI participants in Pakistan. This work also is an effort to presents the support for identified issues at process engineer level SPI, by augmenting the personal software process, and adding architecture centric design keeping in view the local constrains thus further strengthening the PSP principles. The ACE architecture centric methods of Quality Attribute Workshop and Attribute Driven Design have been tailored such that the cost, time and effort impact on the engineer is minimal while the identified issue are addressed. The augmentation is performed in alignment SEI-CMU PSPBOK. The improved process is designed and executed, and the impact of improvement is validated. The improved process demonstrates positive impact of cost and schedule, induces early risk identification and reduces time to market by reducing rework and improving overall quality and satisfaction of not only the product but also the personal maturity and yield of the process engineer. Results of the case studies show that making the process architecture centric has significant advantages for personal process and overall software product quality.
