A series of field experiments were conducted to evaluate the integrated application of organic and inorganic nutrient source, cropping systems and different tillage methods under irrigated and non-irrigated conditions and study their effects on soil physiochemical properties, soil fertility and crop productivity. The experiments were carried out at Agricultural Research Station Serai Naurang, Bannu, Pakistan. Tillage methods included deep (DT) and conventional shallow tillage (CT) while cropping system consisted of wheat-maize-wheat, wheat-mungbean-wheat under irrigated condition and wheat-mungbean-wheat, wheat-fallow-wheat under non-irrigated condition. The fertilizers treatments were farmer’s practice T1 (50 % NP), balance inorganic fertilizers T2 (100 % NPK recommended dose i.e. 120, 90 and 60 kg ha-1), integrated inorganic and organic fertilizers T3 (50 % N + 100 % PK + 10 tons FYM ha-1) and T4 (25 % N + 100 % PK + 20 tons FYM ha-1). The experimental design was RCB with split-split plot arrangement having three replications. Tillage was allotted to main plots, cropping system to subplots and fertilizer treatments to sub-subplots. Deep tillage treatment resulted higher soil available water holding capacity, mineral N and lower soil bulk density than CT under both the conditions. Higher wheat straw, grain and total NPK uptakes was observed in DT than CT. The straw and grain yield of wheat significantly increased with deeply ploughed plots under both irrigated and non-irrigated conditions. However, soil organic matter (OM), AB-DTPA extractable P and K, pH, microbial biomass and population was not affected by any tillage methods. Mungbean-wheat cropping system had performed better than maize-wheat or fallow-wheat. Greater soil OM, mineral N, N uptake, microbial biomass and microbial population was recorded in mungbean-wheat rotation than fallow-wheat under non-irrigated condition, whereas higher wheat straw and grain yield was recorded in mungbean-wheat compared to maize-wheat rotation under irrigated condition. Similarly, incorporation of FYM either 10 tons with 50 % N + 100 % PK (T3) or 20 tons with 25 % N + 100 % PK (T4) had increased soil available water holding capacity, organic matter, mineral N, AB-DTPA extractable P and K, microbial biomass and population but decreased soil bulk density under both conditions. Greater straw N, P and K contents were measured in plots having 50 % N + 100 % PK + 10 tons FYM ha-1 and 25 % N + 100 % PK + 20 tons FYM ha-1 compared to the plots receiving sole mineral fertilizers, whereas grain N was increased in plots receiving balance inorganic fertilizers under both the conditions. Integrated application of 50 % N + 100 % PK with 10 tons FYM ha-1 had improved straw, grain and total N, P and K uptakes compared to other treatments under each conditions. Fertilization of 50 % N + 100 % PK with 10 tons FYM ha-1 had further improved wheat grain yield with 56 % increase under irrigated condition and 49 % increase over farmer’s practice under non-irrigated condition followed by the plots receiving sole recommended 100 % NPK. The summer crops of maize and mungbean responded significantly to combine application of organic and inorganic fertilizers. Addition of 50 % N + 100 % PK + 10 tons FYM ha-1 had increased maize grain and stover yield compared to the other treatments under irrigated condition. Plots incorporated with 50 % N + 100 % PK + 10 tons FYM ha-1 or 25 % N + 100 % PK + 20 tons FYM ha-1 produced comparable yield of mungbean, but significantly higher from plots having sole inorganic fertilizers under both the conditions. Integrated use of 50 % N + 100 % PK + 10 tons FYM ha-1 with DT under wheat-mungbean-wheat cropping system had improved crop productivity and soil fertility beside soil health and environmental benefits and thus recommended for irrigated and non-irrigated wheat sowing in agro-climatic condition of Bannu, Pakistan.

فاخر ہریانوی

فاخرہریانوی (۱۹۰۱ء۔۱۹۷۷ء) کا اصل نام دین محمد تھا اور تخلص فاخرؔ تھا۔ فاخرؔ ہریانہ ضلع ہوشیا ر پور میں پیدا ہوئے۔ پنجاب یونیورسٹی سے ۱۹۳۱ء میں بی او ایل کیا۔ پھر پنجاب ایجوکیشن ڈیپارٹمنٹ سے ۱۹۳۵ء میں سینئر اینگلو ورینکولر کا سرٹیفکیٹ لیا۔ تعلیم کے بعد اردو مرکز لاہور میں ملازم ہو گئے۔ جگر مراد آبادی ،اصغر گونڈوی او ر یاس یگانہ چنگیزی بھی ان دنوں اس مرکز سے منسلک تھے۔ اصغر کے چلے جانے کے بعد فاخر کو اس ادارے کا ناظم بنا دیا گیا۔ فاخر نے کچھ عرصہ پنجاب لیجسلیٹو کونسل میں مترجم کی حیثیت سے بھی کام کیا۔ ۱۹۲۹ء میں فاخر شعبہ تعلیم میں چلے گئے۔ ملازمت کے سلسلے میں وہ بہت سے علاقوں میں رہے۔ اور آخر کار پسرور میں مستقل سکونت اختیار کی۔(۴۳۲)

’’موجِ صبا‘ فاخرؔ کا واحد شائع شدہ شعری مجموعہ ہے۔ جو فروری ۱۹۶۶ء میں ایوانِ ادب لاہور سے شائع ہوا۔ اس مجموعے کا دیباچہ پروفیسر حمید احمد خان نے لکھا ہے ۔ا س کی ترتیب میں ضیاء محمد ضیاء اور طاہر شادانی کی تلاش اور تفتیش شامل ہے۔ مرتبین نے اسے سات حصوں ،حمدیہ ،جذبات و افکار،رومان ،دیہاتی نغمے ،یادِ رفتگاں ،سیاسیات اور متفرقات میں تقسیم کیا ہے۔ یہ شعری مجموعہ ۲۴۰ صفحات پر مشتمل ہے۔ اس کی تفریظ ڈاکٹر وزیر آغا نے لکھی ہے۔ اشکِ عمل ان کا غیر مطبوعہ مجموعہ ہے۔فاخر نے سب سے پہلے مسدس حالی کی بحر میں اشکِ عمل قلمبند کروائی ہے۔ اول حصہ حمد باری تعالیٰ اور دوسرا حصہ حضورؐ کی زندگی سے متعلق اہم واقعات پر مشتمل ہے۔ ان میں تبلیغ اسلام فتح مکہ اور جنگ احد بالخصوص قابل ذکر ہیں- فاخرؔ نے قرآن مجید کا منظوم ترجمہ بھی کرنا شروع کیا لیکن ادھورا چھوڑ دیا۔ پھر ایام پیری میں دوبارہ اس کا م کا عزم کیا ۔قرآن مجید کی آیاتِ کریمہ کو بغیر قافیہ ردیف...

السلم و السلام و تطبيقا تھا في ضوء السيرة النبوية

There is no doubt that Islam is a religion of peace which ensures peace regionally and globally in the light of its teachings. It is not only a religion of worship, but it is a religion includes ethics and caring for others and takes care of the rights of individuals as well as society. The life of Prophet Muhammad, r is the best role model in creating world peace atmosphere as He had ordered his followers and believers to realize peace in their societies. Islam guarantees peace even in war situation as it provides full protection and refuge to all those innocents who do not participate in the war. It is not unknown now that the contemporary world is witnessing events that souls hate and hearts alienate which caused racisms and populism and that their effects threatened communities and destroy firm foundations of peace. So in this contemporary perspective, the importance of research and writing about world peace increases subject to all of the studies levels, whether in universities or conferences especially in light of the biography of Holy Prophet Muhammad r. In this research, I will focus on the following points: Peace and its practical examples in of Holy Prophet Muhammad r. Explanation about the concept of peace and its practice in life of Holy Prophet Muhammad r. Clarifying the most prominent contemporary security challenges in the light of the Prophet's biography. Discussion on common misconceptions about Global peace matter and their correction in the sacred Biography of the Prophet Muhammad r

Taxonomic Studies of Fossil Even and Odd- Toed Mammals from the Miocene Rocks of Dhok Bun Ameer Khatoon, District Chakwal, Punjab, Pakistan

Fossil site Dhok Bun Ameer Khatoon (32o 47'' 26.4" N, 72° 55'' 35.7" E) yielded a significant amount of mammalian assemblage including four families of even-toed fossil mammal (Suidae, Tragulidae, Giraffidae, and Bovidae) and one family of odd-toed (Rhinocerotidae) of the Late Miocene. This newly discovered site has well exposed Chinji and Nagri formation and has dated approximately 14.2 Ma-9.5 Ma. This age agrees with the divergence of different mammalian genera and is important Palaeoecologically, Palaeogeographically and Palaeoclimatologically. Sedimentological evidence of the site supports that this is deposited in locustrine or fluvial environment, as Chinji formation is composed primarily of mud-stone while the Nagri formation is sand dominated. Palaeoenvironmental data indicates that Miocene climate of Pakistan was probably be monsoonal as there is now a days. Mostly the genera recovered from this site resemble with the overlying younger Dhok Pathan formation of the Siwaliks while the size variation in dentition is taxonomically important for vertebrate evolutionary point of view and this is the main reason to conduct this study at this specific site to add additional information in the field of Palaeontology. A detailed study of fossils even and odd-toed mammals found in Miocene rocks exposed at Dhok Bun Ameer Khatoon was carried out. Over all one hundred and twenty specimens were collected during field trips from which forty two specimens are well preserved and identified and are described in this thesis. Two specimens belonging to Gaindatherium browni, five specimens belonging to Listriodon pentapotamiae, four specimens belonging to Dorcatherium majus, one specimen belonging to Dorcatherium cf minus, two specimens belonging to Giraffa priscilla, twenty one specimens belonging to Giraffokeryx punjabiensis, three specimens belonging to Gazella sp. and three specimens belonging to Eotragus sp. Dhok Bun Ameer Khatoon is the new locality which is discovered in detail first time in Pakistan by the present author. The collection comprises isolated upper and lower teeth and fragments of maxillae and mandibular ramii.
