آہ! حضرت مولانا شاہ امان اﷲ پھلوارویؒ
یہ خبر نہایت غم و الم سے سنی گئی کہ خانقاہ مجیبیہ پھلواری شریف پٹنہ کے سجادہ نشین حضرت مولانا شاہ امان اﷲؒ ۲۵؍ شعبان کو دن گذار کر شب جمعہ کو دو بجے عالم جادوانی کو سدھارے، ان کے خاندان، خانقاہِ مجیبیہ پھلواری شریف، پوری ریاست بہار، بلکہ اس سے باہر ان کے جاننے والے حلقوں میں غمناکی اور سوگواری کی جو کیفیت چھاگئی اس کا صحیح اندازہ ہے، وہ ہزاروں کی آنکھوں کی ٹھنڈک بنے ہوئے تھے، جو بھی ان سے ملا ان کی نیک نفسی اور پاک باطنی کا نقش اپنے دل پر بنا کر اٹھا، ان کے مریدین تو ان میں ان کے بزرگوں کے زہد و اتقاء کی ساری نشانیاں پاتے، خانقاہ مجیبیہ کی وجہ سے پھلواری شریف کی بڑی اہمیت ہوگئی ہے، یہ پٹنہ ہی کا ایک محلہ ہے، بہار شریف پہلے پٹنہ ہی ضلع میں تھا، اب نالندہ کا صدر مقام ہے، یہاں بڑے بڑے اولیائے کرام مدفون ہیں، ان کی روحوں کی برکتوں سے پوری ریاست کے مسلمان اب بھی سیراب ہورہے ہیں، پھلواری شریف موجودہ دور کا بہار شریف بنتا جارہا ہے، یہاں کے بزرگوں کی روحیں بھی بہار کے مسلمانوں کی دینی حمیت اور ایمانی غیرت کی ضامن بنی ہوئی ہیں، ان ہی روحوں میں اب جناب مولانا شاہ امان اﷲ کی روح شامل ہوگئی ہے، بہار کے لوگ معلوم نہیں ان کی کن کن باتوں کو یاد کرکے کب تک غمزدہ رہیں گے۔
یاد آتا ہے کہ تقریباً ۳۹ سال پہلے دارالمصنفین کے احاطہ میں ایک صاحب چکن کی شیروانی زیب تن کیے سر پر ایک خوشنما ٹوپی، پاؤں میں سلیم شاہی جوتے پہنے اور جوانی نہیں بلکہ نوجوانی کی رعنائی بکھیرتے ہوئے داخل ہوئے ان کی آنکھیں سرمگیں تو نہیں، لیکن شرمگیں ضرور تھیں، چہرہ کا رنگ...
Western mind always remains muddled to fathom the Islamic belief “Prophethood” but it is grand reality that the West has contributed a lot in “Sirah Writing” from 17th to the present age. Although, in primary literature, Western scholars have delineated their abhorrence in this regard, without any research analysis. They usually used to twist the facts and misinterpret the text in attempt to sustain their assumption under their own perception. In the present age, literary change is seen in Western Writings that scholars have admired categorically the demonstrative Personality of Mohammad (PBUH) as well as they have praised his attributes as authoritative leader, Reformer, Peace maker etc. It will discuss the changes which were seen in Western writings about Sirah and analysis the causes and facts accordingly. It will also throw light on the Western assumption about Prophet Muhammad (PBUH); which has been prevailed in their writings before 19th even changed now. Islam is religion of Peace and Prophet of Islam has sent as” Blessing for All the Universe” from God Almighty so the question is what are the motives to bring forward theses western suppositions in this regard and at what extent it will affect? It will be discussed through comparative analysis among the Sirah books by Western Scholars Maxim Rodinson, Karen Armstrong and Michael Cook.
Persons with hearing loss have been seen, but the problems and frustration imposed by this loss in their lives have not been imagined. Only diagnosis of hearing loss and providing amplification is not enough to ensure the development of communication potentials of the hearing impaired children (HIC). Aural habilitation/rehabilitation services for children are the dire need of all those suffering from hearing loss, especially for those having severe and profound hearing loss. In Pakistan the rehabilitative plans merely cover speech therapy and special education services employing sign language and total communication as a medium of instruction. The efforts are not being focused on auditory development of the children, which is the base of all problems of HIC. Therefore, the researcher aimed to target this entirely neglected area of provision of aural rehabilitation services through a model in order to bring change in the lives of HIC in Pakistan. The objectives of the study were to collect data about current provisions of aural rehabilitation for hearing impaired children in Punjab, to develop a model of aural rehabilitation for deaf children in Pakistan, to develop a standardised tool to be used during experimentation and to validate the proposed model of aural rehabilitation via experimentation. The study carries immense significance from different angles in the context of the planning and management of educational cum rehabilitative plans of children with hearing loss. The model may serve as a guide to policy makers, administrators of special schools, speech therapists, teachers and parents. The design of the study was the pretest-posttest control group design. Sample groups were selected through random sampling technique. Data regarding current rehabilitation practices was obtained through questionnaires for teachers, speech therapists, audiologists, principals and parents of HIC. A framework of the proposed model was made with the help of logic model development guide and by incorporating the recommendations of the stakeholders obtained via questionnaires. Pakistani experts’ opinions were obtained through questionnaire for further modification required in the model. The model was validated through experimentation. A speech perception test was developed and its reliability and validity were established after conducting a pilot study. This test was used as the tool of experimentation i.e. to obtain the pretest and posttest scores of the HIC. The difference in mean speech perception scores of the control group and experimental group profound HIC at posttest level was significant at 0.01 level. It was concluded that aural rehabilitation is feasible as well as necessary for educational and vocational rehabilitation of HIC in Pakistan. Multidisciplinary approach in special schools to be served as preparatory schools for mainstreaming, provision of digital hearing aids from government, auditory training, integrated curriculum development, follow-up of IEP’s focusing on aural mode of communication, development of assessment tools in national and regional languages, efforts for screening and prevention of hearing loss and parental training cum involvement in planning and implementation of individual plans were considered as the necessary ingredients, to bring change in current educational cum aural rehabilitation programme of HIC in Punjab.
