This study examines the role of Pakistan Peoples Party in the politics of Pakistan from 1988 to 1999. The party contributed towards the restoration of democracy after a constant struggle against the dictatorship which ruled over the country for more than a decade (1977 to 1988). PPP, under the leadership of Benazir Bhutto ruled Pakistan twice, though with a simple majority each time in the parliament. Benazir started as a prime minister with great enthusiasm as evident from initiatives that were to bring a change in different aspects of the national life. Social Action Program to improve the living standard of common man, lifting of ban on trade unions, guarantee the freedom of press and conversion of death sentence into life imprisonment were some of the praiseworthy steps of her government. While in government twice she tried to improve relationship with International Community particularly with India. The expectation could, however, only marginally materialized on the account of the confrontation in which her government indulged with the opposition. Several challenges like (hostility with IJI in the Punjab, MQM in Sindh, the Army and the President) obstructed the smooth functioning of PPP rule on both occasions. Despite these challenges, the party should have played the game of politics according to rules and to materialize its pledges made with the masses. Apart from these, the mishandling of government resource, nepotism and favoritism overshadowed issues of vital significance. While choosing to sit on the opposition benches, Benazir Bhutto followed a healthy tradition of accepting the mandate of ruling Pakistan Muslim League. But PPP’s role as the main opposition platform was dominated more by the elements of hatred and revenge rather than cooperation. Benazir wasted her energies in skirmishing with her political rivals and with other state institutions such as the military and judiciary. Ethnic troubles provoking law and order in Sindh on both occasions of the PPP rule posed serious threats to its survival. This virtually rendered those efforts ineffective which the PPP could use for democracy and development. The study concludes that despite the follies made, PPP has the credit of bringing democracy back to the country. Mostly qualitative tools are used to determine various dimensions and depths of this study. Both historical and descriptive methods are used looking to the nature of the study. In order to collect the relevant information, both primary and secondary sources were used.
میرواعظ مولوی محمد فاروق صاحب کی شہادت میرواعظ مولوی محمدفاروق کچھ سر پھروں کی گولیوں سے چھلنی ہوکر شہید ہوگئے۔ اِنَّالِلّٰہِ وَاِنَّا اِلَیْہِ رَاجِعُوْن ط یہ خبر جیسے ہی عوام تک پہنچی، سب ہی پرسکتہ ساچھا گیا، ہرشخص غم وصدمہ کے سمندر میں ڈوب گیا، کیونکہ میرواعظ ؒ ایک قابل احترام ہستی کانام تھا، وہ کشمیری عوام کے ہی محترم رہنما نہ تھے ،بلکہ ملّتِ اسلامیہ ہند کے سچے رہنما تھے۔ عالم وعابد اورزاہد تھے۔بڑے ہی وضعدار انسان تھے۔ہرشخص سے مروت واخلاق کے ساتھ ملتے تھے۔ ۱۹۸۶ء میں راقم اپنے رفیق فخرالدین صاحب کے ہمراہ سری نگر گیاتو حضرت میرواعظؒ ہی کے یہاں قیام کیا۔ اس دوران میں ان کی میزبانی کے جوہر وآداب کامشاہدہ تو ہواہی، ساتھ ان کی تقویٰ وعبادت سے لبریز زندگی، ان کے اعلیٰ اخلاق وبہترین ومثالی کردار کے جونمونے نظروں کے سامنے آئے اس کے پیش نظر راقم یہ کہے بغیر نہ رہے گاکہ کشمیر میں ان کی شخصیت اسلامی کردار وعمل تقویٰ وریاضت اور ملک وقوم کی ہمدردی ومحبت میں منفرد تھی۔ ہزاروں سال نرگس اپنی بے نوری پہ رُوتی ہے بڑی مشکل سے ہوتا ہے جہاں میں دیدہ ور پیدا قبلہ ابّاجان حضرت مفتی عتیق الرحمن عثمانیؒ اوران کے قائم کیے ہوئے ادارہ ندوۃ المصنفین سے جوان کو لگاؤ وعقیدت تھی وہ اظہر من الشمس ہے ،وہ اس ادارہ سے دلی وابستگی کابرملا اظہار کیاکرتے، اس کی امداد واعانت کے لیے ہمیشہ پیش پیش رہتے۔ ان کی شہادت سے ادارہ ندوہ المصنفین کاذاتی نقصان ہواہے،لیکن اﷲ پاک نے ان کو ان کے بہترین عمل وکردار کی بدولت جوشہادت کا مرتبہ دیا ہے اس سے انہیں مقرب الٰہی رحمت خاص اورجنت کاجومژدہ ملاہے اس پر ہر مسلمان کورشک ہے۔ اﷲ تعالیٰ ان کے متعلقین اورہم سب کو صبرجمیل عطا فرمائے،آمین۔ ان کے صاحبزادے اور ان کی جگہ میرواعظ مولوی عمر فاروق...
The duty of issuance Islamic legal verdict is a great job because the Mufti is the successor of the Prophets of Allah. He explains the commands of Allah — permissible and prohibited acts—and stops the disputes among the followers. The focal aspects of this research paper are the questions: What are the required conditions to be a reliable mufti? What are the points of agreement and differences among the four major schools of jurisprudence — Hanafi, Maliki, Shafa’i and Hanbali? The most important area of this paper is the question: What are the protocols and etiquettes of the procedure of issuance of a fatwa, the legal verdict, in our contemporary societies. In the first part of this paper, the analytical evaluation of the arguments presented by prominent jurists of the four major schools of Islamic Jurisprudence. This part suggests some points to reset the preferences because it is the need of time. The second part of the paper opines a number of suggestions to improve the manners, etiquettes and protocols of the procedure on part of a mufti. A mufti, being a representative of the seat of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), is not only responsible to Allah Almighty but also to wellbeing, security, and peace among the members of our society.
