44. Ad-Dukhan/The Smoky Haze
I/We begin by the Blessed Name of Allah
The Immensely Merciful to all, The Infinitely Compassionate to everyone.
44:01
a. Ha. Mim.
44:02
a. By the Book of Divine Qur’an - clear in itself and clearly guiding to the truth.
44:03
a. WE sent it down during a night full of blessings.
b. Because with it WE had planned to warn people.
44:04
a. On that night every matter of wisdom was made distinct -
44:05
a. – by OUR Command.
b. Indeed, WE had decided to send OUR Messengers to these people for guidance -
44:06
a. - as a Mercy from your Rabb - The Lord to humankind.
b. Indeed, HE - HE is The All-Listening of their sayings, The All-Knowing of their actions.
44:07
a. Rabb - The Lord of the celestial realm and the terrestrial world and whatever is between them,
b. only if you were firm believers.
44:08
a. There is no entity of worship except HIM.
b. HE gives both life as well as death.
c. HE is your Rabb - The Lord and Rabb - The Lord of your forefathers.
44:09
a. Yet they are lost in their doubts.
44:10
a. Then be on the watch for the Time – The Last Hour - when the sky will exhale visible smoky haze -
44:11
a. – covering all people, causing them to cry out:
b. ‘This is an awful punishment!’
44:12
a. ‘O Our Rabb - The Lord!
b. Take this punishment away from...
In Pakistan, the financial issues of married working women are rarely discussed. There is an absence of literature on the subject. Nevertheless, the social sciences literature has been debating financial aspect of gender, either from the perspective of employer or employee; ignoring the working women’s reservations regarding their financial contribution in their marital life, particularly with reference to spouse and in-laws expectations. This issue becomes more acute when it comes to patriarchal conservative developing societies. This study is a delicate attempt to understand the magnitude of financial support of Pakistani married working women for spouse and in-laws, in the city of Lahore. In routine, the husband as well as the in-laws expect that a working wife should surrender her income, in entirety or partially towards the household budget, thus taking the financial responsibility of her spouse along with his extended family. Such financial misgivings create tensions and pressure for the already burdened woman having a disadvantaged status. In certain cases, the contribution is by free will of the wife, as well. This research will make an attempt through a survey with 50 married working women of different social classes, residing in Lahore. The purpose is to understand the rationale of approval or disapproval of this practice. Refusal for cooperation often create problems for the earning woman, even at the risk of separation or divorce, or at the least, tensions in the married life. At the end, the study will debate over possible adjustments and compromises, which could reduce tense situation for the married working woman, and at the same time maintaining her financial independence.
A differential equation along with a set of additional constraints (called boundary conditions) form a boundary value problem. Boundary value problems (linear or nonlinear) are found mostly in engineering, applied mathematics and physical sciences as well. Although, few numerical algorithms are found in solving the higher order boundary value problems using orthogonal polynomials. Since polynomials play a vital role in computing the numerical solutions of the differential equations therefore, the research, conducted during my PhD programme, concerns with the study of the numerical solutions of higher order linear boundary value problems. The main objectives of the research are to develop Galerkin technique for solving special eighth, tenth and twelfth order linear boundary value problems using Legendre polynomials, and numerical approximations for solving the system of Fredholm integro–differential equations and the system of differential equations using Laguerre polynomials. The numerical schemes, developed, have been compared with the existing methods, which shows the higher accuracy of the schemes.
