فاروقی، توفیق
بھائی توفیق فاروقی بھی اﷲ کو پیارے ہوگئے
موت توسب ہی کوآتی ہے اورآنی ہے ہی،جوچیز پیدا ہوئی ہے اسے فنا بھی ہونا ہے۔ موت بھی آنی ہے۔لیکن کچھ حضرات کی موت سے ایسا غم وصدمہ اور دکھ ہوتاہے کہ غم بھلانے سے بھی نہیں بھول پاتاہے۔
برہان میں وفیات کا صفحہ لکھاجاچکا تھا، شمیم عثمانی اور حضرت مولانا وحیدالزماں کیرانوی کے انتقال کی تعزیتی تحریر سپرد قلم کی جاچکی تھی کہ ابھی ابھی خبر ملی ہے کہ ’’خاتون مشرق ‘‘ اور ’’گلابی کرن‘‘ کے مدیر جناب توفیق فاروقی مورخہ ۲۴؍اپریل ۱۹۹۵ء بروز پیر کو عارضہ قلب میں مبتلا ہوکر انتقال فرماگئے ۔انا ﷲ وانا الیہ راجعون ۔
مرحوم توفیق فاروقی مجاہد آزادی مولانا عبداﷲ فاروقیؒ کے فرزند اکبر تھے، بڑے ہی ملنسار خلیق و متواضع اور یوپی ودہلی کی تہذیب ووضعداری کے نقیب و علمبردار تھے۔ انہوں نے ’’خاتون مشرق‘‘ اور ’’گلابی کرن‘‘ جیسے رسالوں کے ذریعے مشرقی خصوصاً مسلمان خاتون کو نیک وباعمل اورعفت وعصمت کاپیکر بنانے کا بڑا ہی اچھا اورقابل ستائش کام کیا۔
مفکر ملّت حضرت مفتی عتیق الرحمان عثمانیؒ سے مرحوم توفیق فاروقی اوران کے والد مرحوم مولانا عبداﷲ فاروقی نے ہمیشہ رہنمائی حاصل کی۔احقر عمیدالرحمن عثمانی سے بڑی محبت وعقیدت رکھتے تھے کہتے تھے کہ بھئی تم تو مجاہد ہوکہ اپنے ابّاجان اور ملّت کے رہبر مفتی صاحب کی یادگار ادارہ ندوۃ المصنفین اوررسالہ برہان کوقائم رکھاہوا ہے۔اﷲ تمہیں سلامت رکھے تمہارا دم بڑا غنیمت ہے۔
ذاتی معاملات میں مفتی صاحب کی وفات کے بعد بڑی مدد کی حمایت کی، بہرحال مرحوم توفیق فاروقی بڑے زندہ دل انسان تھے انہوں نے ادب و صحافت کی خدمت کی، ملک وملّت کی خدمت کی۔مسلمان عورت کواسلامی خاتون بنانے کے کاموں کوبڑی اچھی طرح انجام دیا۔اﷲ تعالیٰ غریق رحمت فرمائے اٰمین۔
ادارہ ندوۃ المصنفین اوررسالہ برہان کی طرف سے احقر عمید الرحمن...
In the status and degrees of spirituality, the highest ranking position is prophecy and apostleship in which a person gets free feeds and knowledge from the creator of the universe and then with this light and illumination brightens the hearts of other mankind. Indeed, it is an unusual claim that a prophet or a messenger does and in fact it requires strong evidences to prove. That’s why all prophets are awarded some qualities, discriminations, signs and evidences from Allah Almighty through which people clearly get awareness and acknowledgement. Such things are “Signs and Evidences of Prophecy” in which the greatest sign is “miracle”. The basic question of this article is that what are signs, evidences and arguments of prophecy in Sharaf-ul-Muṣṭafa and Al-Shifā? And what are their present implementation and importance? These books are famous for the dignity and rights of Prophet (S.A.W) and researched by scholars as a whole on their writers, contents, and methodology but not yet studied in this perspective. In this article few most important of them are selected and analyzed. Innocence and pure race, miraculous appearance, personality, debonairness, eloquence, stamp of prophet-hood, miracles and being illiterate etc. All are symptoms of prophecy of Muhammad (S.A.W). In contemporary situation the best way to prove truthfulness and greatness of Prophet (S.A.W) is to focus on better scientific, rational, logical and practical aspects of Muhammad’s (S.A.W) life and we have to apply it.
The ongoing climatic changes and the global warming have intrigued researchers to explore the impact of different policies on the environmental quality. In this study, we focus on the question as to whether freer trade policy is compatible with environmental quality standards. There is no simple pattern of the association between the trade and environmental quality. The main objectives are to construct an index of Trade Liberalization Policy, to investigate the role of the trade liberalization in the environmental quality by decomposing the scale, composition and technique effect and to explore the additional social and institutional channels through which trade liberalization may cause environmental quality. The estimated empirical findings regarding the effects of the trade liberalization policy on imports and exports are strong and robust in different model specifications. Reductions in export and import duties have a significant positive effect on imports and exports of the panel countries with the overall impact on imports being greater than exports, while the liberalized trade regime has a significant positive influence on expanding trade volumes. The empirical findings reveal a mixed but moderate effect of the trade liberalization policy on the environmental quality. Trade liberalization policy appears to affect environmental quality differently through different channels. The net affect also varies across different pollutants. The trade liberalization policy has a detrimental effect on the environmental quality, through six out of ten channels. The channels which appear damaging to the environment include scale effect, energy use, manufacturing, democracy, poverty and xvii foreign direct investment. However, the trade policy liberalization benefits environment through four channels which include technique/income effect, physical capital, human capital and control over corruption. The net impact of liberalized trade policies is detrimental to the environment in case of carbon dioxide and composite index of emissions. However, in case of sulfur dioxide emissions, the overall net impact appears beneficial to the environment by lowering the SO2 emissions. This study has also examined the performance of the model by applying standard forecasting techniques such as within-sample and out-of-sample forecasts. The findings demonstrate that the model tracks data well and has very small mean prediction errors. The Theil’s Inequality Coefficient (TIC) also approaches zero in almost all cases. Thus the model can be used as a tool for carrying out structural analysis, forecasting and policy evaluation. Overall, in the trade-environment nexus, this study justifies the ambiguity regarding the impact of the freer trade on the environmental quality through different channels offering opposing effects. The findings of the present study necessitate the policy formulation to be multi-dimensional for dealing with simultaneously occurring positive and negative impacts.
