طاہر شادانی نے اپنے شعری مجموعے ’’شعلہ نمناک‘‘ کا آغاز حمدوں سے کیا ہے۔ لیکن شادانیؔ کی یہ حمدیں صرف روایت کاتتبع نہیں ہیں۔ حمد و نعت کی طرف ان کا ذہنی میلان ابتدا سے تھا۔ شادانی کی شاعری پر اقبال کے اثرات واضح طورپر محسوس کیے جا سکتے ہیں ۔ان کی حمدوں میں دعا کا وہی انداز ہے ۔جوا قبال کے ہاں ہے اقبال نے اپنی نظم دعا میں اﷲ سے نیک انسان بننے کی دعا مانگی ہے۔
لب پہ آتی ہے دعا بن کے تمنا میری
All mighty Allah (SWT) has created man and made him crown of the nature. For the physical needs of human being, Allah provided him all the needful things. In the same way, Allah (SWT) sent his prophets for the spiritual guidance of mankind. Prophet Muhammad (SAW) was the last messenger of this chain of the prophets. The Prophet hood of Muhammad (SAW) was for the whole of the mankind, for all the people till the day of judgment. Because Allah (SWT) called him the “Seal of the prophets”. And it the gift of Allah to whom he wants to give, he gives. Nobody can achieve this (prophet hood) by its struggle. All the prophets of Allah (SWT) were given instructions through revelation. Some people, who were unable to accept Islam, would make jokes of the teachings of the Prophet (SAW), but he continued his mission and the world witnessed a day when Islam spread all over the world. Some non-Muslims, specially the orientalists, tried to pin point some aspects of the life of the Holy Prophets (in their thinking) but as Allah (SWT) said: And we raised high your name. (Al-Quran: 94: 4) Lesley Hazelton is one of those orientalists. She wrote many books about Islam. Her famous book is “The First Muslim-The Story of Muhammad” in which she has targeted many aspects of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW). This article discusses her views about the Prophet hood, Revelation and the Miracles of the Holy Prophet (SAW). It is out of the human mind to understand the reality of the Prophet hood and revelation. It is the gift of Allah to whom he wants, He gives prophet hood. The family, fame, wealth and physical strength cannot be the reasons for the achievement of Prophet hood. The human mind cannot grab the reality of the revelation.
The purpose of this study was to help the participant teacher to include children with behavioral problems more effectively in mainstream classroom. Children with behavioral problems are the most neglected children and always labeled as distractors in the school as well as at home. Furthermore there is a need to make teachers aware that improving students' behavior is also part of their responsibility, it is not only the duty of the parents. The underlying assumptions about the study were that most of the teachers are unaware of the importance of teaching strategies; due to this teachers are unable to include children with behavioral problems more effectively in their classroom. Teaching strategies will help teachers to make teaching and learning enjoyable for all children and deal with behavioral problems in the classroom. I adopted an action research approach within the qualitative research paradigm for conducting the study. The rationale behind selecting these approaches was that I wanted to learn from my own experience and from the real context, which was a school. Although the focus of study was helping a teacher to adopt different strategies to include children with behavioral problems more effectively in the classroom, other issues emerged which I had not originally intended to study, but which proved to be a prerequisite for a teacher's learning and using strategies in the class. These issues included the degree of openness of a teacher to improve her attitude towards teaching and her ability to engage in a reflective research process with the researcher.
