Communication plays a pivotal role in our daily lives. To articulate our ideas, feelings, emotions and skills we communicate not only with verbal but also with non-verbal methods. These are essential in teaching-learning process. Teachers can utilize a variety of verbal and non-verbal skills to aid students’ comprehension of difficult concepts. It was an experimental study that looked into the impact of non-verbal communication on the learning outcomes of students of 9 th and 10 th classes in Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. This study highlighted the importance of non-verbal communication in the subject of English (Compulsory) of classes (IX-X), further it explored the impact of non-verbal communication on students'' learning by observing teachers and students in classrooms and; finding out how this mechanism contributed to better learning outcomes of students. The study examined the hypotheses that there is an impact of non- verbal communication on students’ learning outcomes both in rural and urban areas; and there is an impact of non-verbal communication on the learning outcomes of male and female students. Population of the study included students and teachers of 103 Govt. secondary schools in rural and urban areas of Peshawar. The sample included 2 teachers and 40 students from each school in the subject of English (Compulsory). The total number of sample teachers and students is 40 and 800 respectively. Tools of the data collection were questionnaires and experiment in the actual classrooms setting. The significance difference between pre and post tests of the control and experimental groups was tested through paired t-test. Furthermore the questionnaires were interpreted with the help of frequency and percentage imethods, while the correlation between teachers and students’ questionnaires was carried out through Gamma correlation. The important conclusions indicated that teachers made the learning environment active through their non-verbal communication whereby students felt alert in the classrooms and participated in the learning process, which consequently enhanced the level of their retention and understanding. Proper use of facial expressions, body movements, eye contact, pitch of voice, and spatial distance helped the teachers to provide better understanding to the students in the attainment of their learning outcomes. To the contrary the teachers who did not properly use non-verbal communication in the classroom could not motivate the students for effective learning. The study made the following recommendations: Teachers should be given an orientation in non-verbal communication and the skills thus acquired should be utilized in their teaching methodologies. Teachers should be encouraged to use this technology in order to provoke the interest of the students and make them attentive in the class. It is recommended that curriculum planners and policy maker should also recognize the importance of non-verbal communication and make it a part of the teacher education program so that prospective teachers are trained in this important skill.

مولانا محمد یوسف

مولانا محمد یوسف صاحب مرحوم
افسوس کہ مولانا محمد یوسف صاحب سابق امیر جماعت اسلامی ہند کا ۴ جولائی کو دن میں ۲بجے رامپور میں انتقال ہوگیا، اناﷲ وانا الیہ راجعون۔
ان کی وفات سے ملک و قوم کے درد مند وہوشمند اور مخلص اور فعال رہنماؤں کی صف اور سونی ہوگئی۔
جماعت اسلامی سے ان کا تعلق بڑا دیرینہ تھا، ۴۸؁ء میں منقسم ہندوستان میں جماعت کی تشکیل نو کے وقت وہ جماعت کے قیم مقرر کیے گئے، ۷۲؁ء تک وہ اس منصب پر فائز رہنے کے بعد امیر جماعت منتخب کیے گئے ۸۰؁ء تک اس پر فائز رہے۔ جماعت کے کئی اور اداروں جیسے بورڈ آف اسلامک پبلیکشنر، دعوت ٹرسٹ اور اشاعت اسلام ٹرسٹ وغیرہ کے بھی وہ چیئرمین تھے، پیرانہ سالی اور عوارض واعذار کی وجہ سے ادھر کئی برسوں سے وہ گوشہ گیر ہوگئے تھے مگر ملی و قومی مسائل سے باخبر اور ان کے متعلق فکر مند رہا کرتے تھے، گو انکے دور امارت میں جماعت کو ابتلا و آزمایش کا سامنا کرنا پڑا تاہم انھوں نے اس کو ترقی و استحکام کی راہ پر گامزن رکھا، ملک کے دوسرے اسلامی اداروں اور اشخاص سے بھی ان کا تعاون و اخلاص کا معاملہ رہا، مسلم مجلس مشاورت، مسلم پرسنل لابورڈ اور دینی تعلیمی کونسل کے وہ رکن رکین تھے، قومی و ملکی مسائل پر ان کی وسعتِ نظر، فراخدلی اور اشتراک عمل کے جذبہ کی قدر کی جاتی تھی، وہ جماعت کے اہم اجتماعات میں دوسرے مکاتب فکر کے افراد کو بھی اظہار رائے کے لیے مدعو کرتے، ان کی تقریریں اور خطبات عام طور سے نہایت متوازن، جامع اور بامقصد ہوتے، گفتار کے علاوہ کردار کے میزان میں بھی وہ پورے اترے، ۷۵؁ء میں ایمرجینسی کے دور ابتلاء میں انھوں نے قید و بند کی صعوبتوں کو برداشت کر کے اور...

الشورى في الاسلام

Counseling is a vital pillar of Islamic Shariah by which teachings of Islam are interpreted to solve the modem day problems. It plays a crucial role in highlighting and resolving the collective issues of Muslim Ummah. The West has risen to this power and status because their thinktank body works actively. They have the current situation under their scrutiny and thus hold a guiding light for their nations. It is hightime for the Muslim Ummah to act proactively for the solution of multiple problems being faced by the Muslim Ummah. A think-tank body of the Muslim Ummah may not only unite the Muslim Ummah but it may pave the way for glorifying the Muslim Ummah. Such a think-tank shall give representation to the Muslim scholarly community.

Isolation and Structural Studies on the Bioactive Constituents of Bergenia Ciliata and Synthesis, Special Characterization and Antibacterial Study of a Schiff Base Metal Complexes

The indigenous plant Bergenia ciliata was investigated for bioactive constituents in this research. Five known bioactive compounds were isolated from ethyl acetate extract of this plant. The isolated compounds were identified by melting point, UV, IR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR as Afzelechin (173), Asarone (174), Terpinen-4-ol (175), Parasorbic acid (176)and Damascenone (177). Antimicrobial activity of isolated compounds was studied. All the isolated constituents showed antimicrobial efficiency varyingly on the selected microbes that comprised of two Gram positive and four Gram negative bacterial strains, causes infections in human. Afzelechin (173) exhibited the highest antimicrobial activity compared to other compounds. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of the constituents which were explored for the first time. Afzelechin (173) showed the highest antifungal activity while Damascenone (177) has moderate activity. The second part of the thesis is comprised of Synthesis of Schiff bases and their complexation with different metals like Cu (II), Co (II), Ni (II) and Zn (II). Both the bases and their complexes were studied on the basis of their physical characterization like micro-analytical data, 1HNMR, FTIR and UV spectrum data. Schiff bases coordination with metal through nitrogen of imine and atom of oxygen was confirmed through spectrum data. Furthermore, the ligand and the metal complexes were screened against Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria for their antibacterial activity. The results showed that these complexes possess enhanced biological activity as compared to ligand bases.
