This study examines the insight dynamics of factors affecting dividend payout in the context of Non-Financial firms listed at Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) in KSE-100 Index. Through observation, 66 firms were identified from 18 sectors of Non-Financial firms that have been paying the regular dividend in the past 6 years (2009-2014). In this study, a complete business cycle has been encompassed for reader?s view. Key explanatory variables were identified on the basis of prior literature (Dividend Payout, Cash Flow on Total Assets, Debt to Equity, Profitability, and Liquidity) and one which has not been studied before and considered significant is Free Cash Flow to Capital Expenditure. For econometric analysis of the data, Multivariate Regression Analysis was considered as a most appropriate tool. Descriptive statistics of data under study described its normality. In empirical analysis, Housman and BPLM tests declared random effect exist in the panel data. Moreover, data was found free from contemporaneous correlation, multicollinearity issue, and autocorrelation but the issue of heteroscedasticity has been found. Results of the study revealed that free cash flow to capital expenditure, debt to equity, net profit margin and current ratio are significantly impacting the dividend payouts. However two measures are insignificant that are cash flow to total assets and absolute liquidity ratio. These results suggest that Managers of the listed firms in Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) should aim to increase the meaningful cash flows to capital expenditure for the profitable projects that would yield high profits to firms, this will lead to high dividend and improve the investors? confidence.

حکیم شیر محمد شیر

حکیم شیر محمد شیر(۱۸۷۴۔۱۹۶۰) داغ دہلوی کے شاگرد اور لسان الاعجاز پنڈت میلا رام وفا کے استاد گرامی تھے۔ اقبال کی طرح آپ بھی خط و کتابت کے ذریعے مرزا خاں داغ دہلوی سے شاعری میں اصلاح لیتے تھے۔ داغ کی وفات کے بعد آپ نے سید احمد حسن میرٹھی کو اپنا کلام دکھانا شروع کر دیا۔ آپ کا کلام ہندوستان کے معروف رسائل میں چھپتا رہا۔ تین ضخیم دیوان لکھے مگر انہیں غربت کی وجہ سے شائع نہ کروا سکے۔ (۱۵۷) شیر نے غزلیں بہت کم لکھی ہیں۔ نظم‘ قصیدہ‘ مرثیہ‘ سلام اور صنف تاریخ کو تو وہ بچوں کا کھیل خیال کرتے تھے۔ بہت کوشش کے باوجود شیر کے مسودات دریافت نہیں ہو سکے۔ ’’سرزمینِ ظفر وال‘‘ کے تذکرے کے ذریعے راقم الحروف نے شیر کا کچھ کلام بازیاب کیا ہے۔ آپ نے اپنی ساری زندگی اپنے آبائی وطن ظفر وال(سیالکوٹ) میں گزاری۔ آپ کے کلام میں دیگر موضوعات کے ساتھ ساتھ مقامیت کے عناصر دیکھے جا سکتے ہیں۔ اس حوالے سے ان کی نظم ’’قصبہ ظفر وال‘‘ ملاحظہ کی جا سکتی ہے۔ اس نظم میں مقامیت کے ساتھ ساتھ ماضی و حال‘ تقسیمِ ہند اور ہندوستانی تہواروں کا ذکر بھی ملتا ہے۔ اس نظم کی زبان بہت سادہ اور سلیس ہے کچھ اشعار ملاحظہ ہوں:

اب ظفر وال ہے شکستہ حال                        آ گیا ہے اس آئینہ میں بال

رہ گیا ہے صرف عکس مو اس میں                 خوبیاں ہیں نہ خوبرو اس میں

چشمہ مہر میں وہ آب نہیں                            خم گردوں میں وہ شراب نہیں

وہ زمیں اب وہ آسمان نہ رہا                          ہم نے دیکھا تو جو سماں نہ رہا

حسنِ شہری سے یہ جا محروم                          اکثر اوقات بولتا ہے بوم

رہ گیا ماند قصبہ جاتی حسن                             ملگجا ہے کچھ دیہاتی حسن

نہیں سیپوں...

توریہ کی حقیقت، ضرورت اور اس کا حکم: ایک تحقیقی جائزہ

Islam is a religion of peace, love and prosperity. It emphasis on moral values and strongly forbids from immoral acts. Commitment to the former is ultimate way to the paradise, while the latter leads to Hell, which is an abode, where deviants from the righteousness are punished for their misdeeds. The Holy Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) showed the importance of morality through the deeds and actions. “Ta┴riyā” is an act which is a part of morality. It is an act which escapes a human being from telling a lies strongly forbidden in Islam, being a root cause of manly social avoid. Usually“Ta┴riyā” is adopted so as to avoid differences and turmoil on a group of individuals. By“Ta┴riyā” means speaking a statement which is equivoques i.e. At the same it gives too meaning apparent and the hidden. Now the question arises whether “Ta┴riyā” is considered as lie or truth. It cannot be termed either lie or truth. However, in many traditions, it has been negated as a lie. At some occasions, when a person feels to tell a lie, for the sake of bringing peace, then it is advised than he should bring on use the act of “Ta┴riyā” but. The reality manipulated be in such a way so it could be termed as lie.

Plant Mediated Synthesis, Characterization and Biological Evaluation of Silver Nanoparticles Using Aqueous Extract S from Leaves of Agave Americana, Mentha Spicata and Mangifera Indica

Green silver nanoparticles were biosynthesized utilizing aqueous leaves extracts of Agave americana, Mangifera indica and Mentha spicata plants due to presence of pre-eminent reducing and stabilizing phytochemicals. These biocompatible nanostructures were purified, optimized and characterized as mildly neutral, polycrystalline, monodispersed and thermally sensitive compounds owing predominantly spherical shape and 30–150 nm diameter. Biological/ pharmacological analysis in comparison to crude ethanolic, methanolic, aqueous and acetone leaves extracts evinced stupendous antibacterial activity against all pathogenic experimental bacteria particularly E.coli and MRSA. Evaluated MIC values for AgNPs and crude leaves extracts against experimental bacteria lies in the range of 40–320 μL. Green AgNPs remarkably inhibited the growth of all test fungal mycelia while moderate fungal growth inhibition was demonstrated by crude leaves extracts. Good anticancer activity was demonstrated by A. americana AgNPs (69%) and acetone extracts (78%) while remaining AgNPs and extracts moderately inhibited prostrate tumor proliferation. Robust antioxidant activity was demonstrated by AgNPs and crude leaves extracts at highest sample concentration of 300 μL. In parallel, significantly exalted cytotoxic, phytotoxic, anti-termite, insecticidal activity was exhibited by bioinspired AgNPs and crude leaves extracts at highest sample concentration of 1000 μL. Moderate enzyme inhibition was manifested against acetylcholine esterase and urease. Finally absence of phyto-glutinins was evinced by negative hemagglutination reactions.
