الشيخ حافظ محمد إدريس وأسلوبه في تفسيره كشاف القرآن

Pashtun Ulama have always been in the service of Islam. The origin of Pashtun people in Pakistan is the province of Khyber Pukhtunkhwa formerly known is North West Frontier Province (NWFP). Pashtun Ulama have served Islam on different fronts; some have done Jihad against the non-Muslims, some of them have offered their services in the field of Islamic education, ie, teaching in Madrassas, while some have served Islam via their writing commentary of Qur’ān, explanation of Ḥadīth and juristic problems. This article discusses the worthy contributions of one of the great commentators of Qur’ān Shaykh Ḥāfiẓ Muḥammad Idrīs, who belonged to Mardan in the Province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, He lived in the 19th century. The article encompasses a detailed biography of the writer and his worthy contribution in serving Qur’ān, Islam and Muslims focusing on his commentary on Qur’ān in Pashto language named as “Kashshāf Al Qur’ān”. The method used for the research is descriptive and qualitative. The review literature showed that such an esteemed and vigorous scientist of different sciences of Qur’ān and his valuable contributions are out of the reach of scholars and libraries that may lead to an irreparable loss of the Islamic legacy. The study came up with the outcomes of his efforts in the field exegesis of Qur’ān, and the way and pattern he followed in interpreting different meanings of the revealed literature. The study would help out Islamic scholars and will enrich the domain of the Qur’ān’s research with new thoughts and viewpoints

Methodology of Purification in Four Orders A Comparative Study

Allah Almighty created man and send him to the world to establish his deputation and delegation. As both good and evil are found in man, man has always preferred evil to good. Allah Almighty send prophets in different ages to save them from evil and to purify them. In this way, prophets purified people to make them able to establish his deputation in the world. This pedigree continued till the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) came to the world. After holy prophet (P.B.U.H), this responsibility was given to the companions of holy prophet (P.B.U.H) and Muslim Ummah. The companions of holy prophet (P.B.U.H) fulfilled this responsibility in excellent manner. But after that when the Government was changed from Caliphate to Kingship, the evil trends again began to flourish in man. Then this task was fulfilled by the mysts and Sufis. They struggled alot to purify the spirits of people and established an institution which was hammed as mysticism.
