افراد سازی میں خصوصی دلچسپیوں اور رجحانات کی رعایت سیرت طیبہ کی روشنی میں

One of the aspects of the teaching and grooming of people by the the of tendencies and interest special the considering was (صلى الله عليه وسلم) Prophet companions and preparing, guiding, grooming and appreciating them in their respective fields of special interests and tendencies. This consideration of their special interests and tendencies and grooming and guiding them in this respect enabled them to exercise their abilities and serve the society in the academic, preaching, political, economic, social, judicial, diplomatic and other aspects. Until and unless the interest and tendencies of youth are not kept in mind, abilities of youth can never be utilized. Our Holy Prophet (ﷺ) took great care of youth’s interests before their training for specific field. The present paper intends to analyze the life of five companions and their excellence in field of education which was result of the Prophet’s consistent guidance and grooming according to their special interests and tendencies which resulted in their extra ordinary status in their respective fields and constructive contribution in the establishment and strengthening the structural foundations of society. The present Muslim world is in the need of seeking the guidance from the life of the Prophet in this respect and considering the special tendencies and interests of the youth and grooming, guiding and upbringing them in their respective fields so that they could contribute to the positive and constructive upbringing of the humanity in general and Muslim society in specific.

Studies on Seed Priming and Fungicide in Pearl Millet under Dry Land Conditions

Laboratory and field experiments were conducted on seed soaking (0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21 or 24 h), seed priming (100, 200, 300 or 400 ml nutrient solution and Riverum), Poly Ethylene Glycol (PEG) 10000 (4, 8, 12 or 16 g) L -1 of deionized water) and hydro-priming along with fungicide (Ridomil MZ 72 WP) on pearl millet cultivars viz. 18-BY, MS-2, DBR-3 and MH-7077 at Agronomy Department, NWFP Agricultural University Peshawar, and Cereal Crops Research Institute, Pirsabak, Nowshera, Pakistan, during 2004, 2005 and 2006. The objectives of the study included water absorption estimation by the seed in unit time, seed soaking and osmotica concentrations response to germination parameters, fungicide efficacy for downy mildew (DM) control and performance of primed seed in the field on yield and yield components. Seed moisture absorption increased enormously during the first 3 h of soaking and declined thereafter. Seed soaking for 6 h enhanced germination, radicle and plumule growth while, lowest germination and shortest radicle and plumule were observed for 24 h soaking. PEG 10000 @ 12 g, Riverum or nutrient solution @ 300 ml L -1 of deionized water gave the highest germination, radicle and plumule growth. In field experiment seed priming enhanced germination, emergence, flowering, leaf area, leaf area index, tiller number plant -1 , plant height, maturity and head length. Heavier grains and more grain, stover and biological yields were recorded for primed seed than non-primed. The cultivars tested showed differential response to various attributes. MH-7077 was the earliest in flowering and maturity. Cultivar 18-BY recorded the highest leaf area, leaf area index and head length. The highest grain number head -1 , grain weight, grain yield and harvest index was observed in MH-7077. The cultivar MS-2 excelled in tiller number plant -1 , plant height, stover and biological yield. Seed priming with PEG 10000 @ 12 g, nutrient solution or riverum @ 300 ml L -1 diionzed water in MH-7077 may be used for higher grain production. Ridomil was effective in controlling DM disease. The DM disease score was lower in hydro- primed seed than non-primed but higher than osmo-primed seed plots.
