The most important objective of the present research study was to test the relationship between personal bullying (PB) incidents and nursing staff turnover intentions (TI) in the major public sector hospitals of Pakistan. In addition, the role of job stress (JS) as mediating and political skill (PS) as moderating variable were also assessed in the present study. In present study, we used explanatory sequential mixed methods research design. Explanatory sequential research has two phases, quantitative followed by qualitative. In Phase 1, data was collected from 324 nurses through questionnaire and model was tested using Partial Least Squares (PLS). In phase 2, for qualitative part, 11 nurses were interviewed so that they can explain results in more detail. Results from the quantitative survey and qualitative part showed that there is a significant positive association between personal bullying and nursing staff turnover intentions and the link between personal bullying and turnover intentions was partially mediated by job stress. Furthermore, political skill (PS) weakens the relationship between personal bullying (PB) and job stress (JS). The most important limitations of the present study were the sample used, which was from six public sector hospitals of Islamabad/Rawalpindi area. The present study is the first to use a sequential explanatory mixed methods design to assess the mediating role of job stress (JS) as well as to examine the moderating effect of political skill between personal bullying and job stress linkage.

والدین کی عظمت

والدین کی عظمت
نحمدہ ونصلی علی رسولہ الکریم امّا بعد فاعوذ بااللہ من الشیطن الرجیم
بسم اللہ الرحمن الرحیم
معزز اسا تذہ کرام اور میرے ہم مکتب ساتھیو!
آج مجھے جس موضوع پر گفتگو کرنی ہے وہ ہے’’عظمت ِوالدین‘‘
صاحب ِصد ر!
والدین ایک عظیم نعمت ہیں ، ان کا وجود مسعود رحمت ہی رحمت ہے۔ ان کی موجودگی اولاد کے لیے باعث ِبرکت ہے، ان کی رضاء میں اللہ کی رضا ہے، ان کی ناراضی میں خدا کی ناراضی ہے۔ حدیث پاک میں ہے کہ جس نے یہ دیکھنا ہو کہ مجھ پر اللہ تعالیٰ راضی ہے یا ناراض تو وہ اپنے والدین کا چہرہ دیکھ لے اگر والدین خوش ہیں تو رب تعالیٰ بھی خوش ہے اگر والدین ناراض ہیں تو رب تعالیٰ بھی ناراض ہے۔
صدرِمحترم!
قرآنِ پاک میں نصِّ قطعی سے ثابت ہے کہ اپنے والدین کے ساتھ بھلائی کرو، ان کا احترام کرو، اُن کے ساتھ اچھے طریقے سے گفتگو کرو، ان کو اُف تک نہ کہو ، والدین ایک ایسی ہستی ہیں کہ یہ اولاد کا کبھی بھی بُر انہیں سوچتے ،ان کے لیے مشکلات برداشت کرتے ہیں، پریشانیوں کو سینے سے لگاتے ہیں، اُن کی اعلیٰ تعلیم وتربیت کا انتظام کرتے ہیں۔
صدرِذی وقار!
والدین کے چہرہ کو دیکھنا ایک عبادت ہے اللہ تعالیٰ مقبول حج کا ثواب عطا فرماتا ہے۔ حدیث پاکؐ میں ہے کہ کسی شخص نے پوچھا کہ مجھ پر سب سے زیادہ حق کس کا ہے آپؐ نے فرمایا کہ تیری ماں ، پھر پوچھا گیا آپؐ نے فرمایا کہ تیری ماں، پھر پوچھا تو آپؐ نے فرمایا کہ تیراباپ۔
معزز سامعین!
ماں کے بارے میں کہا گیا کہ’’ جنت ماں کے قدموں کے نیچے ہے‘‘ ماں ایک ایسی نعمت غیر مترقبہ ہے کہ جس کا بدل دنیا میں ناممکن ہے۔ ماں آنکھوں کو...

پاکستانی دینی مدارس و عصری تعلیمی اداروں کا سماجی تشکیل میں کردار: فقہ السیرۃ کے تناظر میں

Pakistan came into being on 14th August 1947 A.D/27th Ramazan 1366 A.H. According to the constitution of Pakistan its full name is “Islamic Republic of Pakistan”)اپاتسکن وہمجرہی االسیم.)After its existence many rulers and Citizens of Pakistan established a number of Educational Institutions. These institutions are of three types: 1. Governmental, Public Sector Educational Institutions from Primary to University level and Model Deeni Madaris. 2. Semi Government Educational Institutions. 3. Private Sector Institutions including religious Institutions. In all education policies of Pakistan, the major content was to produce patriotic, religious and well-mannered citizens for this Country. In this research article the efforts and activities of religious and educational Institutes of Pakistan will be described, who are playing their role to establish a Welfare Society in the light of Seerah.

Numerical Solution of Incompressible Viscous Flow Problems Using High-Order Schemes

Numerical Solution of Incompressible Viscous Flow Problems Using High-order Schemes Numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations that describe incompressible viscous fluids has been a very active research field due to the rapid development of computational techniques and availability of high speed computers. It has motivated a very large number of researchers whose work provide an invaluable source of solution methods and test problems. Numerous computational methods have been developed and are in used today for steady and time-accurate computation of these equations. The motivation of this thesis is also a desire to develop an efficient, accurate and simple method for the numerical solution of incompressible viscous flow problems in primitive variables. For this purpose, a numerical method based on high-order compact finite difference schemes is developed in conjunction with the well-known artificial compressibility approach for solving incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. By adding pseudo time derivative terms to each equation, the coupled system becomes hyperbolic in time and the artificial compressibility method becomes applicable. We have also focused on the extension of the method for simulating two-phase flow by coupling phase-field model to the incompressible Navier-Stokes solver. This research work is divided into three steps in which each step focuses on an aspect of the development of a numerical method. In the first step, a third-order upwind compact finite difference scheme based on the fluxdifference splitting is developed and implemented with the implicit Beam-Warming approximate factorization scheme for solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The upwind compact scheme for the convective terms is preferred because of its high resolving efficiency with less numerical dissipation and truncation errors. The numerical scheme is applied to compute the flow inside the two sided lid driven cavity flow and compared with the finite difference alternating direction implicit scheme. In the second step, we implemented higher-order central compact finite difference scheme along with filtering procedure for steady and unsteady incompressible Navier- Stokes equations. The central compact scheme is also implemented under the framework of the artificial compressibility method in which convective terms of the governing x equations are approximated by using the high-order central compact schemes with filtering procedure and the viscous terms are discretized with a sixth-order central compact finite difference scheme. Dual-time stepping technique is employed for unsteady solutions at each physical time step. Computational efficiency and accuracy of the method is compared with upwind compact schemes by computing several benchmark flow problems. In the third step, the central compact scheme is applied successfully to incompressible two-phase flows both in two and three space dimensions. For this purpose, the modified Allen-Cahn type phase-field model is coupled with the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. In the phase-field formulation, the classical infinitely thin boundary of separation between two immiscible fluids is replaced by a transition region of small but finite width, across which the composition of the one or two fluids changes continuously. The effectiveness of the method is demonstrated by computing several benchmark twophase incompressible flow problems. Finally, advantages and difficulties in solving incompressible viscous flow problems are discussed and future directions of the effort are proposed.
