وادیِ سینا
جس وادی مقدس طویٰ کا ذکر قرآن میں ملتا ہے اس کی وسعت قلبی واضح نظر آ رہی تھی ۔ گرمی سے نڈھال پیاسی وادی نے اپنی چونچ بحیرہ احمر میں ڈال رکھی تھی ،بحر ہند کا پانی جزیرہ نما عرب کے یمنی ساحلی علاقے راس منہلی اور براعظم افریقہ کے راس سیاں کے درمیا ن کوئی بیس میل کی ایک تنگ گھاٹی سے گزر کر افریقہ اور ایشیا کے درمیان حدِ فاضل کھینچتا ہے جو وادیٔ سینا پہنچ کر دوحصو ںمیںمنقسم ہو جا تا ہے مشرقی حصے کو خلیج عقبہ جبکہ مغربی حصے کو خلیج سویز کہا جا تا ہے ۔قاہرہ سے وادیٔ سینا جاتے ہوئے خلیج سویز کو عبور کرنا پڑتا ہے ۔اس حصے میں موسیٰ ؑنے اپنی قوم کو فرعونی مظالم سے نجات کے لیے پار کرایا تھا اور اسی بحر میں فرعون منفتاح غرق ہوا تھا۔
مصر ،سعودی عرب،اسرائیل اور اردن کی سرحدیں خلیج عقبہ میں ملتی ہیں ۔سعودی عرب اسی ساحل ’پر نیوم‘ نامی بستی بسا رہا ہے ۔اس جدید بستی کے بارے میں یہ بات کہی جا رہی کہ یہاں عیش و عشرت کے وہ سارے ذرائع موجودد ہوں گے جن کے لیے مغرب و مشرق کے عیاش طبقات دنیا کے کسی بھی کونے میں جانے سے انکار نہیں کرتے ۔
جہاز نے سمت بدلنے کے لیے جب داہنا پنکھ نیچے کیا تو کھڑکی سے خلیج سویز ایک نیلے ربن کی طرح نظر آ رہی تھی ۔محمد علی نے اشارہ کیا کہ وہ پانی خلیج سویز ہے ۔انہوں نے نہر سویز کی لمبائی چوڑائی اور اس پر برطانوی ،امریکی اور فرانسیسی قبضے کی تاریخ بھی بیان کی او ر بڑے فخر سے جمال عبدالناصر کی بہادری اور اس نہر کے قومیانے کے عمل کو سراہا ۔ انہوںنے کہا کہ ۱۸۶۹ء...
"Mishkāt al-Maṣābīḥ" has a sound rank among the Hadith collections. Its importance can be gauged from the fact that it has been described and summarized by several scholars. The works of Sheikh Abdul Haq Muḥaddith Dehlavi over that is a great contribution and have a special place in the context of his Hadith services. He is one of the prominent muhaddithin of the Subcontinent. He was pioneer in teaching and disseminating Hadith knowledge in the subcontinent. Firstly, he described the Mishkāt al-Maṣābīḥ in the Persian language of that time, which gained immense popularity among the people and increased the taste for understanding Hadith. Secondly, He accumulated a treasure trove of mysteries and secrets in Arabic for the use of Researchers. The name of the Persian commentary is Ash‘atul Lam‘āt while the Arabic commentary is called Lam‘āt al-Tanqīh. They are more than one in usefulness, which has created a taste for reading and understanding Hadith among the people and Researchers. In the said article, an introduction and methodological study of the work done by Sheikh Abdul Haq on Mishkāt al-Maṣābīḥ will be presented.
The present study deals with the synthesis of fibric acids derivatives. The thesis has been divided into three parts (1) Synthesis of fibric acids derivatives (2) Biological screening (3) In silicio studies. In the first part of thesis two fibric acids (2a & 2b) were synthesized from two phenols (1a & 1b) followed by their conversion into corresponding esters (3a & 3b) and carbohydrazides (4a & 4b). Cyclization of these carbohydrazides was carried out to synthesize 1,3,4-oxadiazoles (5a & 5b). In next step N-substituted-2-bromoacetamides (7a- 7y) were prepared by using various anilines (6a-6y). Two main series of compounds 8-30 and 31-50 were synthesized successfully by reacting 5-(2-aryloxypropan-2-yl)-1.3.4- oxadiazol-2-thiols (5a & 5b) with N-substituted-2-bromoacetamides (7a-7y). Characterization of the compounds was carried out through spectroscopic analysis.

For this purpose, protocols of anti-thrombotic (in vitro and in vivo) and anti-inflammatory activity (in vitro and in vivo) were followed. The anti-thrombotic activity (in vitro and in vivo) was performed to evaluate the FXa inhibition potential of newly synthesized compounds. In vitro, compounds 17, 27 and 36 showed higher % age of clot lysis than standard drug streptokinase; however the xvi remaining compounds showed moderate to good activities. In vivo, for compounds 9, 12, 13, 16, 17, 24, 27, 32, 36, 39, 41, and 48 enhanced clotting times (even better than standard drug heparin) were observed. Anti-inflammatory activity was performed to evaluate the COX-2 enzyme inhibition potential of fibric acids derivatives. In vitro, these compounds showed moderate to good activity while in vivo compounds 8, 9, 11, 12, 16, 17, 24, 34 and 48 showed results even better than standard drug diclofenic sodium. Compounds 14, 15, 19, 21, 31, 38 and 42 results were comparable to that of standard drug while remaining compounds exhibited moderate activity. In the last part of research work in silico studies were performed for selected compounds. For anti-thrombotic activity compounds 9-17 were docked against FXa protein. Except the compound 5a, all others showed higher docking score than the control ligand. In case of anti-inflammatory activity molecular docking of compounds 5a, 5b and 8-50 was carried out against COX-2 protein. All the compounds except 5a, 5b, 13 and 25 showed higher docking score than standard. Density functional theory (DFT) computed molecular properties of compounds 9-17 were also calculated by computational methodology. Results of biological activities showed good commitment with in silico study results. In future these compounds might be evaluated at molecular level.
