آہ ! جمیل مہدی
وا حسرتا! کہ دل ہے بہت بے قرار آج
سینے میں چبھ گئی ہے کوئی نوکِ خار آج
دل میں دردہے،روح مضطرب اوربے چین ہے،قلم پرلرزہ طاری ہے، زبان وبیان کی قوت دم بخود اورمردہ ہے،نبض حیات ڈوبتی ہوئی معلوم ہورہی ہے کہ میرے گذشتہ تیس(۳۰)سال کے قابل احترام بزرگ مگر بے تکلف رفیق اور ہمدم و دمساز۔ بھائی جمیل مہدی(مدیر روزنامہ’ عزائم‘ لکھنؤوماہنامہ ’برہان‘ دہلی) ۱۳/فروری۱۹۸۸ء کوصبح کوساڑھے سات بجے اس دارفانی سے داربقا کی طرف کوچ کرگئے۔اناﷲ واناالیہ راجعون۔وہ بہادر،بے خوف،جیالا بے باک وبے لوث انسان، وہ صاحب طرزادیب، وہ سراپا اخلاص و ایثار صحافی، وہ دوستوں کادوست،اپنوں کا غمخوار،چھوٹوں کامشفق وبے مربی،بزرگوں کی محفلوں میں باادب مگر بے لاگ انسان ہمیں چھوڑ گیا جس کے دم سے قلم کی آبرو سلامت تھی، اردو صحافت کی عظمت قائم تھی۔ مولانا ظفر علی خاں،مولانا ابوالکلام آزاد، غلام رسول مہرؔ،مولانا محمد علی جوہرؔ،مولانا عبدالماجد دریابادی،مولانا محمد عثمان فارقلیط کی پاکیزہ روایات کی پاسداری تھی۔اردو میں دیانت دارانہ صحافت کابھرم قائم تھا۔ آج کے خودغرضانہ ماحول،مفاد پرستیوں،ضمیرفروشیوں اورمصلحت اندیشیوں کے پُرہول سناٹے میں بھی جس کی ولولہ انگیز اور چونکا دینے والی تحریروں سے حق وصداقت کی بلند آواز گونج اٹھتی تھی،افسوس وہ آخری کڑی بھی ٹوٹ گئی جس کی بدولت ملت کے زریں عہد اورشاندار ماضی سے اس درماندہ، شکستہ اورچاروں طرف سے مہیب ومہلک خطروں سے گھرے ہوئے حال کی تاریکیاں،روشنی کی کرنیں،عمل کی توانائیاں فکروبصیرت اورتجربوں کی تجلیاں حاصل کرتی تھیں۔
آج ملک وملت کے افق پرزبردست انتشار وافتراق اورسنگین ونازک صورت حال کی ظلمتیں چھائی ہوئی ہیں،ایسے خوفناک وقت میں جبکہ طرح طرح کے طوفانوں،سیلابوں اور زلزلوں کی گڑگڑاہٹ چاروں طرف سنائی دے رہی ہے جمیل مہدی جیسے بے لاگ،بے خوف اوربے لوث اوراس قدر دیانت دارانہ اور زندہ کرداروضمیر کے حامل صحافی اورعقیدہ کے پختہ اورروشن فکر کے حامل...
The present paper is the study of the methodology which Shaykh Abu al-Ḥasan Muḥammad b. ʿAbd al-Hādī al-Sindī al-Kabīr (d.1139 AH) adopted in writing a concise commentary on most authentic book of Ḥadīth, Saḥīḥ al-Bukharī. His life and works have been studied and analyzed elsewhere. (See. Al-Azwa, Sheikh Zayed Islamic Centre, University of Punjab, June, 2012, pp. 327-44). This study delving in his Commentary brings to the fore the depth and breadth of his scholarship in various branches of Islamic sciences including usūl, fiqh and Arabic eloquence. It further shows how skillfully he applied his knowledge of these sciences in elaboration of the most authentic Ḥadīth work meticulously compiled by Muḥammad b. Ismaʿīl al-Bukharī (194-265 AH). The study concludes that his methodology in elaborating terminology of usūl, fiqh and Arabic eloquence is one of the best works of its kind. Hence, commentary may well be considered as one of the significant sources for the study of Saḥīḥ al-Bukharī.
Six wheat cultivars/lines viz; Baviacore, Nesser, 9247, 9252, 9258 and 9267 were crossed following complete diallel technique. The seed of F 1 crosses and parents was planted in the experimental area of Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad. Planting was done under normal and water stress conditions following randomized complete block design with three replications in both of the cases. The data was recorded on ten guarded plants tagged for the purpose for each parent and cross in each replication under both of the conditions. The traits like plant height, peduncle length, specific flag leaf area, specific flag leaf weight, stomatal frequency (upper flag leaf surface), size of stomata, days to heading, number of spikes per plant, spike density, number of grains per spike, 100-grain weight, biological yield, grain yield and harvest index were recorded on tagged plants in each replication. The recorded data were subjected to the analysis of variance technique to determine the genotypic differences for the traits which were exhibited highly significant under both of the water availability conditions. Combining ability and gene action analysis was carried out for all of the parameters studies. Significant change in the mean performance of all the characters was observed under the water stress condition. Additive gene action was obtained in the characters like plant height, peduncle length, stomatal frequency, size of stomata, days to heading, spike density, and 100-grain weight when evaluation was made using Griffing’s approach while the characters like plant height, peduncle length, stomatal frequency, size of stomata, days to heading, spike density, 100-grain weight, biological yield and grain yield was observed when calculations were done using Hayman’s approach under irrigated condition. Non-additive gene action was exhibited in the characters like specific flag leaf area, specific flag leaf weight, number of spikes per plant, number of grains per spike, biological yield, grain yield and harvest index through the use of Griffing’s approach and over dominance in the characters like specific flag leaf area, specific flag leaf weight, number of spikes per plant and harvest index when Hayman’s approach was used for calculations under irrigated condition. The results under water stress conditions revealed that gene action exhibited in the characters like peduncle length, stomatal frequency, size of stomata, days to heading, spike density and 100-grain weight was additive when Griffing’s approach for analysis was adopted while using the 1analysis though Hayman’s approach, additive gene action was shown by the characters like peduncle length, stomatal frequency, size of stomata, days to heading, spike density, biological yield and grain yield. The characters like plant height, specific flag leaf area, specific flag leaf weight, number of spikes per plant, number of grains per spike, biological yield, grain yield and harvest index gave non-additive gene action in Griffing’s approach and plant height, specific flag leaf area, specific flag leaf weight, number of spikes per plant, 100-grain weight and harvest exhibited over dominance in Hayman’s approach under water stress conditions. Similar gene action was shown by both calculations i.e. Griffing’s as well as Hayman’s approach for most of the characters under irrigated as well as water stress conditions except number of grains per spike, biological and grain yield under irrigated and biological and grain yield under water stress conditions. The difference of results might be due to the reason that means were used in calculation by the numerical approach while variances in graphical approach. Multi disciplinary approach involving plant breeding, genetics, biotechnology, physiology, soil and crop management for the development of water stress tolerant/ resistant genotypes in wheat, is suggested.
