نظم وضبط
تنظیم بڑی چیز ہے اے اہلِ گلستاں
بکھرے ہوئے تنکوں کو نشیمن نہیں کہتے
کائنات جن اٹل اصولوں پر چل رہی ہے ان میں زیادہ اہم قانون نظم و ضبط کا ہے۔ کائنات کی لامتناہی اور بے کراں وسعتوں میں کوئی معمولی سی شے یا کوئی حقیر ساذرّہ بھی اس اصول سے مستثنیٰ نہیں ، نظام ِقدرت کے تحت مختلف مخلوقات کو جو ذمہ داریاں تفویض کی گئی ہیں وہ انہیں بطریقہ احسن انجام دے رہی ہیں۔ نظامِ شمسی کے اندر مختلف ستاروں اور سیاروں کی حرکت اور گردش کا جو قانون خالقِ کائنات نے مقرر کیا ہے۔ اس پر صحیح طریقے سے عملدرآمد ہو رہا ہے۔ زمین اپنے مقررہ ضابطے کے تحت محو گردش ہے۔ اسی طرح فضاؤں ، بادلوں کا سفر، در یائوں اور نالوں کی روانی، طغیانی، پہاڑوں کی آتش فشانی اور سمندر کے مدّو جزر وغیرہ کے جواصول اس حکیم مطلق نے مقرر کیے ہیں یہ سب چیزیں انہی قوانین کے مطابق کام کر رہی ہیں۔
قدرت کا تکوینی نظام (جونظم و ضبط کی بنیاد پر قائم ہے) انسان کی نظم و ضبط کی اہمیت کو سمجھنے اور اس پر عمل پیرا ہونے کی دعوت دے رہا ہے۔ کائنات کی مختلف اشیاء ہمیں یہ سکھاتی ہیں کہ قواعد وضوابط کی خلاف ورزی بہر حال نقصان دہ ہے۔ پانی کی مثال ہی لیجئے اگر پانی کی روانی کے لیے شہر کی حدود مقرر نہ کر دی جائیں تو وہ کناروں کو توڑ کر اِدھر اُدھر پھیل کر تباہی مچادیتا ہے۔ لہذا اسے نظم وضبط کے حصار میں رکھنا انتہائی ضروری ہے اگر ہم غور کریں تو یہ بات سمجھ لینا کچھ مشکل نہیں کہ نظم و ضبط اپنانے ہی سے سکھ اور سکون حاصل ہوتا ہے۔
دہر میں عیش دوام آئیں کی پابندی سے ہے

Dr. Najib Al- Kailani (1931-1995) is one of the prominent poet and writer of Arabic literature. The multidimensionality of his personality is rare example of the history of Islamic literature. He was a renowned poet, writer, a medical professional, a thinker and overall a great human being. He laid the foundation of the Islamic literature and introduced a sound methodology. His precious literary works in Arabic and Islamic school of thought made his personality more prominent. He not only discusses the issues and challenges faced by Egyptian Muslims but also covers the whole Islamic world and as well as those Muslims who are in minority in their countries. His literary works are a good source of knowledge for not only the general readers but for the intellectuals and writers as well. Research works are being carried out on different dimensions of his personality in different ways by the different universities in the world. Research articles and discussions are being carried out and conferences are also organized in different Arab countries in the memory of Dr Najib Al-Kailani. Kailani was paid rich tributes by Arab writers and thinkers for his unique wealth of literary works. In this article we present the views of Arabian writers about his literary status.
Present study involves determination of arsenic in drinking water samples from different tehsils of district Sheikhupura along with the analysis of hair and blood samples of females of 15-25 years of age. Biological samples of males of same age group were also analyzed as control. Blood hormonal level of LH and FSH was measured in both groups whereas estradiol and testosterone was detected in females and males respectively using ELISA technique. AAS method was employed to measure arsenic in water, hair and blood. Questionnaire was designed for assessment of socioeconomic and general health status of the study group. The data was statistically analyzed for comparison and correlation. Majority of respondents belonged to lower socioeconomic group and had different health problems. Among 500 drinking water samples only 8.6% were within the WHO limit and only 50.6 % of the total samples were within NDWQS limit. The drinking water of tehsils Sheikhupura and Sharaqpur had higher arsenic as compared to other tehsils (64.25±2.55 µg/L and 61.63 ± 2.73µg/L) respectively and was highest in all hand pump water (71.14± 2.6µg/L). Arsenic concentration in hair was highest in 23-25 years females (1.62±0.10µg/g) and among the residents of tehsil Sheikhupura (1.40±0.12 µg/g) and those using hand pump water (1.31±0.14 µg/g). Similarly the highest mean value of blood arsenic was observed in the age group of 23-25 years (3.2 ±0.23 µg/L) and being highest among respondents of tehsil Sheikhupura. The same trend was noted in male group. Positive correlation (r=1.0) was found between arsenic in drinking water and biological samples with respect to area, age and water sources. In general FSH level in females was within reference range whereas LH was found in lower concentration in some areas. Estradiol was lower in follicular and luteal phase of the respondents from Sharaqpur and Sheikhupura suggesting possible exposure of arsenic. LH and FSH in males were in normal range and testosterone showed variability with reference to age. The results of this study evidently suggest that the presence of arsenic in drinking water is likely to affect general metabolism and its accumulation in biological tissues. This appears to be linked with the exposure of variable magnitude and duration. The results of this study provide enough data for future studies regarding water contamination and health effects also warrant urgency for preventive measures to reduce possible effects.
