Teachers‟ professional commitment is a critical issue among our educationists these days. To address this issue, a study entitled “A study of professional commitment of teacher educators in Punjab” has been undertaken by the researcher. The main objectives of the study were to: i) determine the level of professional commitment of teachers ii) find effects of gender differences on the level of professional commitment of teachers iii) explore the affect of demographic differences on the level of professional commitment of teachers working in Govt. Colleges for Elementary Teacher Institutions in Punjab. Actually the teachers of GCETs are called as teacher educators in the Punjab province. To measure these objectives following research questions were developed: i) what is the level of professional commitment of teachers ii) what is the level of professional commitment of male and female teachers iii) what is the difference between the level of professional commitment of rural and urban teachers iv) what is the level of professional commitment of teachers with different age v) what is the level of professional commitment of teachers with different working experiences vi) what is the level of professional commitment of teachers with different qualification vii) what is the level of professional commitment of teachers with different pay scales viii) what is the level of professional commitment of married and un-married teachers? The study was mix method both qualitative as well as quantitative in nature. In the first phase, various educational experts from universities and the education department were invited to discuss different aspects of professional commitment. This discussion was conducted in a one day seminar held at Lahore. Review of literature also helped to find some domains in this respect. Twenty nine out of thirty three GCETs were selected as population of the study. There were 29 (17 male and 12 female) principals, 320 teacher-educators (200 males and 120 females) and 2785 (338 male and 2447 female) prospective teachers enrolled in B. Ed program in the session 2012-2013. From this population all the 29 principals (100%) and 320 teacher-educators (100%) were considered as sample of the study and 50% prospective teachers (1403) were selected randomly from GCETs of the Punjab province. To collect data three types of instruments were developed i.e. questionnaire for teacher-educators, questionnaire for prospective teachers and semi-structured interview for principals. Response rate remained 89% from principals, 90% from teacher- educators and 93% from prospective students. The collected data were analyzed by using SPSS software. Both descriptive as well as inferential statistics were used to test the design research questions. After data analysis it was found that female teachers were more committed than male teachers to their profession in all domains except the domain, commitment to work group. Urban teachers were more committed than rural teachers in all domains of professional commitment. Commitment level increases with the increase of age of teachers in all domains of commitment except the domains, institutional behavior climate and collegial participative leadership. Commitment towards the teaching profession increases with the increase of experience. More qualified teachers were more committed towards the teaching profession in all domains except commitment to work group domain. Commitment level among GCET teachers increases with the increase in Basic Pay Scale and also high monthly salary. Marital status affects commitment level i.e. commitment level of un-married teachers is high as compared to married teachers. In the end it was suggested that i) Ministry of Education should encourage teacher educators for better performance by giving them financial increase. ii) There is need to compare school teachers and university teachers with regard to their level of commitment.

سیرت نبوی ﷺ کا اجتہادی پہلو

Establishment of khilafah and tamkeen fil ‘ard means supremacy of the dictates of shari‘ah and socio-political justice on earth. This is one of the basic objectives and prominent messages of the Holy Quran and Seerah of Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w). About khilafah and tamkeen fil ‘ard the Holy Quran expresses as:   -وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مِنكُمْ وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَيَسْتَخْلِفَنَّهُم فِي الأَرْضِ …  -الَّذِينَ إِن مَّكَّنَّاهُمْ فِي الأَرْضِ أَقَامُوا الصَّلاَةَ وَآتَوُا الزَّكَاةَ وَأَمَرُوا بِالمَعْرُوفِ وَنَهَوْا عَنِ المُنكَرِ وَلِلَّهِ عَاقِبَةُ الأُمُورِ.  -هُوَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَ رَسُولَهُ بِالْهُدَى وَدِينِ الْحَقِّ لِيُظْهِرَهُ عَلَى الدِّينِ كُلِّهِ وَكَفَى بِاللَّهِ شَهِيداً.  Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) proclaims:   - وَاَللَّهِ لَوْ وَضَعُوا الشَّمْسَ فِي يَمِينِي وَالْقَمَرَ فِي يَسَارِي عَلَى أَنْ أَتْرُكَ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ حَتَّى يُظْهِرَهُ اللَّهُ أَوْ أَهْلِكَ فِيهِ مَا تَرَكْتُهُ. The Holy Quran and the Seerah refer to some underlying milestones on the way of religious nations to status of khalafah and tamkeen fin ‘ard. These milestones may be expressed in an order as: da‘wah [preaching], deen [practices of prophetic teachings], hijrah [migration], ma‘iyyat-ul-Allah [companionship of Allah], qital [wars], nusrat-ul-Allah [divine aid], izhar-ud-deen [domination of deen] and khilafah [inheritance of authority]. This is noteworthy that journey of khalafah and tamkeen fin ‘ard begins with da‘wah [preaching towards deen] and passing through various milestones ends up again at da‘wah, as obvious from ayat-ul-istakhlaf quoted above. Therefore, the seekers of khilafah and tamkeen fil ‘ard should strive hard and keep struggling with the work of da‘wah with dedication in all circumstances and all means as per time and place requirements in lined with the modus operandi of Prophets, particularly Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w), instead of awaiting the status of khilafah and tamkeen fil ‘ard as prerequisite to start with the work of da‘wah and establishment of deen. This paper primarily aims to elaborate the milestones of Muslim Ummah to reach to the status of khilafah and tamkeen fil ‘ard. It also cast light on the objectives of khilafah and tamkeen fil ‘ard. This work provides useful guidance to Muslim Ummah in general and Ahlud da‘wah in particular about milestones and objectives of khilafah and tamkeen fil ‘ard.

Microstructure and Durability Analysis of Multi-Layer Repaired Forging Dies

Multilayer Flood-welding repair of hot forging dies is a very useful technique which can remarkably enhance the working life of the die. Conventional quenched and tempered dies do not exhibit good resistance to wear. Therefore, these dies are nitrided to improve wear resistance but after the production of few numbers of forgings cracks are produced. That’s why here multilayer flood-welding technique has been adapted to improve the die life and to establish the optimum parameters for this technique. In the current work, the modified H12 hot-work tool steel was weld deposited in the cavity of hot-forging dies and their performance was monitored visually for the die condition and with the macroscopic and microscopic examination. It was analyzed that the thicknesses of the both hard upper ‘capping layer’ and intermediate ‘buffer layer’ have a prominent influence on the performance and the life hot forging die. For a particular dimensions and contour of the die impression, there came out an optimal thickness of the capping layer that provided the best performance. Further increase in capping layers thickness exhibited brittle cracking, whereas thinner capping layers produced early wear and plastic deformation. For intermediate buffer layer, in order to provide adequate backup support to capping layer, a certain minimum thickness level is required. This process minimized the die steel consumption because the thickness of the forging die is not reduced in the process of reworking and ultimately the process is cost effective. Moreover, the Multilayered flood-welded dies were gas nitrided to further enhance the life of the forging die. The results have shown that double stage nitriding process is good for these dies which produced minimum compound layer on the nitrided surface. The die life as a result of nitriding was amazingly increased compared to normal Multilayered flood- welded dies. The dies showed very slow wear and thermal fatigue cracking after the production of large number of forgings. By employing these dies excellent overall surface finish of the forged parts was achieved.
