Seerah is a separate Islamic science from Hadith as their primary sources are different. Although there are some extents where there is over laying between them, but traditionally Seerah has different principles as compared to Hadith. The Scholars of Hadith were very strict in applying their rules whereas the scholars of Seerah were more flexible. The reason is, when academics were dealing with Ahadiths and deducingdivine rulings, they wanted to make sure they were founding the rulings on Ahadiths that were authentic and sound. So that is why they applied very stringent rules to accept Ahadith. However, when it came to Seerah, they were more flexible in their rules, because they study this as history of The Prophet PBUH which does not touch the Sharia rulings. So, we find that writers of Seerah would accept narrations, they would not usually accept if they were dealing with Ahadith. This practice with Seerah narrations was followed by our early scholars. But recently, there is a new movement among some of our researchers that they wanted to apply the rules of Ahadith on Seerah. We do not agree this approach and in this article, we have had a humble effort to compile a set of rules for acceptance of Seerah narrations.

Synthesis and Characterization of Lafe1-Xnixo3 X = 0. 0-0. 5 Using Synchrotron Radiations Xrd, Exafs, Xanes , Magnetization, Mossbauer and Impedance Spectroscopy

Thorough investigations regarding the effects of Ni doping on Fe site in LaFeO3 on the structural, electronic, ac electrical, dielectric and magnetic properties has been performed using synchrotron X-ray diffraction, X-ray absorption, dc magnetization, Mossbauer and impedance spectroscopy. Polycrystalline LaFe1-xNixO3 (x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.3 & 0.5) oxides were prepared by the solid state reactions method. The results and brief relevant theoretical introduction of each experimental technique are presented and discussed in a separate chapter. Chapter 1 encircles brief description of the importance of LaFe1-xNixO3, importance of the experimental techniques used for these characterizations, motivations and objectives of the present study. The synthesized samples are the orthorhombically distorted derivatives of an ideal perovskite structure. Anomalous variations in the perovskite distortions have been observed and attributed to the energy effects associated with partial filling of the degenerate orbitals and the hybridization of the localized orbitals at cations and anions, invoked by Ni doping in LaFeO3. To investigate the effects of Ni doping on the oxidation state, spin state and magnetic ordering of Fe cations in LaFO3, 57 Fe Mossbauer experiment (at room temperature) and dc magnetization measurements between 4K and 400K have been performed. The iron is present in high spin 3+ and 4+ oxidation states. Density of Fe4+ increases with Ni doping. Fe3+ cations in LaFeO3 are antiferromagnetically ordered. The weak ferromagnetic component in M-H curves is due to the canted spin structure of Fe cations in LaFeO3. Temperature independence of the saturation magnetization associated with this weak ferromagnetic component strongly suggests that the degree of spin canting is invariant with between 4K and 400K. A progressive collapse of the magnetically ordered state of Fe in LaFeO3 to a spin disordered state on Ni doping has been observed and discussed in terms of increase in the spin relaxation frequency and dilution of the Fe3+ sublattice (five unpaired spins: t2g3,eg2) by Fe4+ (four unpaired spins: t2g3,eg1) and low spin Ni2+/Ni3+ cations. The possibility of any transition of the Fe3+ from the high spin state to low spin state and hence its role to mediate this collapse in the magnetically ordered state has been totally excluded. Analysis of the Fe K-edge X-ray absorption spectra in the XANES and EXAFS regions confirmed the results of Mossbauer spectroscopy and XRD regarding oxidation state of Fe and octahedral deformations, respectively. Ni is found as Ni3+ in LaFe0.9Ni0.1O3 and the density of Ni2+ increases with further Ni doping. Temperature dependence of the position and strength of the ac electrical relaxations indicates that the electrical conduction and dielectric polarization in LaFe1-xNixO3 are due to the small polaronic hoping of the holes state between Fe4+ and Fe3+. The observed colossal value of the dielectric constant in LaFeO3 is an extrinsic effect and its origin lies in the extended defects at grain-grain and sample-electrode interfaces. Variations in the resistance and the capacitance associated with grain and grain boundaries has been conferred in terms of the density of the electrical charge carriers, potential barriers height at grain boundaries and thickness of the grain boundaries. O K-edge XANES spectra shows the growth of two new important conduction bands with doping Ni in LaFeO3. One is the localized conduction band „L‟, associated with the holes states introduced at the iron cations. The other band „m‟ is of itinerant nature and is due to the hybridization of O2p states with Ni3d states. From the increase in spectral intensity of „L‟ or the concentration of Fe4+ (hoping channel for the localized conduction), a progressive increase in the mobility and decrease in the activation energy for hoping of the localized electrical charge carriers was expected and observed. From the simultaneous growth of both of these bands, a competition between these two parallel conductions in LaFe1-xNixO3 can be predicted. Dominancy of either the itinerant or localized type conduction in any composition of LaFe1-xNixO3 is determined by the dominancy of these conduction bands. Metallic character in LaFe1-xNixO3 increased progressively with increasing Ni. This again was in accordance to the growing intensity of the delocalized conduction band „m‟. Although, the activation energy for hoping of holes between Fe4+ and Fe3+ decreased with the increase in Ni doping, however, localized type conductivity associated with the iron lattice remained non-zero even in half doped sample „LaFe0.5Ni0.5O3‟. It indicated that the holes introduced into the iron cations were localized and the itinerant behavior of the electrical charge carriers associated with the iron cations have not completely established. The composition dependent metal to insulator transition in LaFe1-xNixO3 is associated dominantly with the metallic character at the Ni sites rather than the new holes state at the Fe cations.
