محمد فاروق نعمانی
افسوس ہے کہ ۲۶ و ۲۷؍ اپریل کی درمیانی شب میں جناب محمد فاروق نعمانی نے الٰہ آباد میں داعی اجل کو لبیک کہا، وہ مولانا شبلی کے برادر زادہ اور مولوی محمد اسحق صاحب وکیل ہائی کورٹ کے صاحبزادے تھے، جو اعظم گڑھ میں مولانا کے علمی و تعلیمی اور خاندانی جائداد اور زمینداری کے کاموں میں ان کے خاص دست و بازو تھے، ان کے انتقال پر مولانا نے ایسا پُر درد مرثیہ لکھا جو اردو کی عزائیہ شاعری میں بے مثال ہے، فاروق صاحب اس وقت کم سن تھے، اس کی طرف مولانا نے اس شعر میں اشارہ کیا ہے۔
لاڈلے ہیں کہ کسی اور کے بس کے بھی نہیں
اس کے بچے ابھی سات آٹھ برس کے بھی نہیں
فاروق صاحب شبلی کالج کے پرجوش اور سرگرم ممبر تھے، دارالمصنفین سے بھی ان کو گہرا اور جذباتی تعلق تھا، یہاں کی دعوتوں اور مجلسوں میں شریک رہتے، صوم و صلوٰۃ کے پابند تھے، لاگ لپیٹ ان کو نہیں آتا تھا۔ اﷲ تعالیٰ مغفرت فرمائے اور پس ماندگان کو صبر جمیل عطا کرے، آمین۔ (ضیاء الدین اصلاحی۔ مئی ۱۹۹۷ء)
Every person in the world is respectable because he is a human being. All religions of the world have taught respect for humanity. It will not be wrong if we say that respect is the common heritage of humanity living in the world. Mutual respect is the secret and distinction of the development of nations. How many nations and cultures became enviable simply because they respected each other? In the present era, the dignity of humanity is being trampled everywhere. The murder market is hot everywhere. The standards of human respect are changing, sincerity, truth, human equality, and values are being replaced by deceit, greed, envy, and selfishness. And it is done according to the resources. Man is the best of creation and legitimate respect and honor is his basic right. Therefore, no one can see his self-respect being undermined. That's why it has become very important to bring up topics like respect for humanity and explain the position and status of human beings in the light of religious books so that the respect and dignity of human beings are being trampled underfoot today, people should be made aware of the true status and status of human beings should be informed so that the importance of human blood can be estimated. An attempt will be made in this paper to present a comparative review regarding the respect and reverence that human has for Islam and Hinduism.
Keywords: Respect for Humanity, Superior to all creatures, Religion, Islam, Hinduism, Respect, Self-respect
The study is aimed at the evaluation of textbook of Social Studies for 5th grade as an effective instructional
aid. Textbook development is very sensitive area in curriculum. It is a critical task to maintain the coherence
among the concepts of the textbook. In Social Studies political, economic, cultural and environmental aspects
of society are studied. The primary purpose of Social Studies is to help "young people make informed about
the public good as citizens of a culturally diverse and democratic society".
Objectives of this research study were to evaluate the appropriateness of the book for the students, to analyze
the contents of prescribed book of Social Studies, to assess the importance of the textbook, to explore the
possible difficulties in the book, to find out the durable physical features of it and to draw a comparison
between opinions of both teachers and students regarding the book. It was hypothesized that our schools
have no special resources required for textbook of Social Studies. It is also hypothesized that book is not likely
to excite the interest of students and teachers nor it is according to the National Curriculum. The population
comprised teachers and students from all Federal Government Junior Model Schools of Islamabad city. By
using Random sampling technique, sample was selected. In order to collect data, two questionnaires were
used. One was for teachers of Social Studies and other for students of 5th grade. Data obtained was analyzed
and interpreted by using appropriate descriptive and inferential test of significance such as one way chi-
square and two-way chi square. The level of significance was 0.05.
On the basis of results, it was concluded that the book contains irrelevant questions in exercises and proper
answers were not available in the relevant chapters. Maps and legends of maps were not very much clear and
the lengthy facts and figures were not understandable for the students. In light of the conclusions, it was
recommended that colorful pictures, perfect binding, proper description of facts, pre-requisite knowledge and
learnability of students should be ensured in writing and adoption of a textbook for Social Studies.
