سرراس مسعود
افسوس ہے کہ ۳۰؍ جولائی ۱۹۳۷ء کی دوپہر کو ڈاکٹر سرراس مسعود کا بھوپال میں بعارضہ تپ میعادی انتقال ہوگیا، باہر والوں کو ان کی بیماری کی کوئی خبر نہ تھی، یکایک پہلی اگست کے اخباروں سے ان کی وفات کی اطلاع ملی، مسلمانوں کے لئے عموماً ور ان کے دوستوں کے لئے خصوصاً یہ سانحہ ہی المناک ہے، وہ ہماری قوم میں تعلیمی مسائل کے بڑے ماہر سمجھے جاتے تھے، سرسید کے پوتے اور جسٹس سید محمود کے بیٹے تھے، تعلیم سے فارغ ہوکر وہ پہلے پٹنہ میں ہیڈماسٹر ہوئے، وہاں سے کٹک پروفیسر ہوکر گئے، پھر حیدرآباد میں ناظم تعلیمات اور اس کے بعد مسلم یونیورسٹی کے وائس چانسلر اور آخر میں ریاست بھوپال میں وزیر تعلیم ہوئے، ۱۸۸۹ء میں پیدا ہوئے تھے، ۴۸ برس کی عمر پائی، جاپان کا تعلیمی نظم و نسق اور انتخاب زریں (اردو اشعار کا انتخاب) وغیرہ بعض رسالہ اور مضامین ان کی علمی اور ادبی یادگار ہیں، مرحوم نے دو جوان لڑکے پہلی بیوی سے چھوڑے ہیں، بڑا لڑکا تعلیم سے فارغ ہوکر اب یورپ سے واپس آگیا ہے۔
مرحوم بڑے وجیہہ، کشیدہ قامت، سرخ و سفید، ہنس مکھ اور ملنسار تھے، جس مجلس میں ہوتے سب پرچھا جاتے، باتوں کے دھنی اور زبان کے میٹھے تھے، ہر شخص سے جھک کر ملتے تھے، ایک ذاتی واقعہ ہے، مگر بیان کے قابل ہے، بارہ تیرہ برس ہوئے جب وہ حیدرآباد میں ناظم تعلیمات تھے، تو میرا حیدرآباد جانا اور ایک دوست کے ہاں ٹھہرنے کا اتفاق ہوا، جن سے پہلے گو ان سے بہت میل ملاپ تھا، مگر یکایک بیچ میں ایسی شکرنجی ہوگئی تھی کہ ملنا جلنا اور بات چیت تک بند ہوگئی تھی، میں جب ان سے جاکر ملا تو انہوں نے پوچھا کہاں ٹھہرے ہو، میں نے جگہ بتائی تو وہ چپ سے...
Aim To explore the apparent lack of personal concern for the welfare of others in China? To develop concepts to understand this social phenomena in natural settings using ethnographic and participatory research. Research Question How can the knowledge derived from qualitative research be used to improve the welfare of the poor in Shanghai? Ethics The study was carried out within the guidelines of the declaration of Helsinki. The study was characterised by anonymity, beneficence, non maleficence, and the maintainence of the dignity of participants Method Collection of data. The principle data source was “observation” spot observation”(Baksh 1990)”, participant observation”(Hammersley and Atkinson 1983)vignettes(Finch 1987, Sani Bin Gabi 1990), oral history(narrative) Conclusion The study was conducted ethically. It was a worthwhile study attempted to deal with current problems. The publication of this paper can be used to stimulate further enquiry into the problem of those in need of social welfare in Shanghai and China, in the hope it will improve services where they are needed. Suggested solutions In a country where intergenerational family ties are so strong and “guanxi” exists it is paradoxical there is little empathy for others. Confuscian values, changed family beliefs, and education at school and university may assist in increasing empathy. Learnt conditioning, to ignore or dissociate, from another human being in need of help, can be slowly overcome by implementing universal and improved changes in societal living conditions. This can be achieved by improving social welfare programs, spearheaded by a compassionate government. There is a view that it is an egregious and transparent fiction, to promulgate and publically promote, the philosophies and policies of communism, yet allow these curable social ills to remain. ”Rex ipsa Loquiter”. The healthy should help the sick, the rich should help the poor and the employed should help the unemployed, Proportionately, in accordance with what they have they should give. The promotion of a “ forward thinking, humane, listening and open society, rather than a closed, narrow, opaque, inward looking “weltanschaung” would assist societal reform. We “bystanders”, we must all try to imagine we are in the place of those in need, and feel aas they do, in their situation. We must follow the advice of Mencius (372-289BC) and develop and use “empathy” As Mencius said, ”a developed human heart is the basis of a moral life”
In the present study, locally grown garlic i.e. pink and white were characterized followed by product development phase and nutraceutical evaluation for the management of serum cholesterol, glucose and thrombosis through experimental rats modeling. Compositional analysis illuminated that both garlic verities/line are good source of protein and minerals. Regarding bioactive molecules extraction, methanol exhibited highest polyphenols than that of ethanol and water. The pink garlic extracts showed higher FRAP, DPPH, flavonoids, flavonols, ABTS and tannins values in comparison with garlic white. Moreover, amount of allicin was also higher in pink garlic. On the basis of in vitro characterization with special reference to antioxidant potential, pink garlic preparations were selected for the development of functional soup and further used in bioevaluation trial. Accordingly, four types of chicken garlic soups were prepared after adding whole garlic, garlic powder and garlic oil @ 2, 2 and 1g/100mL serving, correspondingly along with control. The developed chicken garlic soups were subjected to physico-chemical analysis during storage that elucidated non-momentous effect on total soluble solids (TSS) while pH and acidity affected substantially. Likewise, color of the soups affected non-significantly with storage and treatments except for a* value. Sensory response of the functional soup remained within normal range during storage. Afterwards, efficacy study in rats was carried out through two consecutive trials I & II for the validity of results. Bioevaluation study comprised of four groups of rats feeding on whole garlic, garlic powder and garlic oil @ 250, 250 and 100 mg/kg bodyweight, respectively alongside control. The consumption of different garlic treatments imparted non-substantial effect on feed and drink intake during entire study. Likewise, cholesterol and LDL were significantly reduced by different garlic preparations however, pronounced decrease as 11.05 & 9.45 and 17.21 & 15.37% was noticed for whole garlic in trial I & II, respectively. The significant increase in HDL was also recorded in rats rely on whole garlic from 35.36±2.37 to 39.73±2.54 and 33.25±2.11 to 37.22±2.11 mg/dL. Similarly, triglycerides were momentously reduced from 68.52±4.65 to 61.17±4.31 and 68.61±4.25 to 63.42±4.13 mg/dL in trial I & II, respectively. The attenuation in serum glucose of rats is an indicator for the positive impact of garlic treatments on this trait. In this context, garlic oil performed better than rest of the treatments and reduced glucose from 85.40±5.12 to 81.12±5.23 and 88.68±5.20 to 82.98±5.14 mg/dL in respective trials. Likewise, garlic oil consumption resulted 7.79 & 8.33% increase in insulin higher than that of whole garlic and garlic powder 3.62 & 4.38 and 6.03 to 6.79% in trial I & II. Similarly, garlic preparations especially garlic oil imparted substantial increase in bleeding time (BT), prothrombin time (PT), thrombin time (TT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) with significant decrease in plasma fibrinogen (Fg) and platelet aggregation (PG) thus soothing thrombosis. The antioxidant potential of rats was also improved as evident from enhanced serum glutathione and suppressed thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), xanthine oxidase (XO), malondialdehyde (MDA) and nitric oxide (NO). The whole garlic consumption caused 16.78 & 15.07% elevation in glutathione and 21.23 & 21.98 % reduction in TBARS during the entire trials. Furthermore, the values for liver and kidney functions tests were within the normal range showing the safety of garlic preparations. The whole garlic performed better to control cholesterol along with anti-aging perspectives. Besides, garlic oil ameliorated glucose and thrombosis related variables efficiently. From the instant exploration, it is deduced that garlic based products are effectual to attenuate lifestyle related disorders.
