اردو ناول میں پسماندگی کے مظاہر
ایک مکمل کہانی جو تمام اجزائے ترکیبی کے ساتھ بیان کی جاتی ہے ناول کہلاتی ہے۔یہ وہ صنف سخن ہے جس میں جذبات،خیالات،واقعات اور ثقافت کو حصہ بنایاجاسکتا ہے۔ناول معاشرے میں نسل در نسل چلنے والی کہانیوں کا عکاس ہے کیونکہ یہ ایک طویل کہانی ہوتا ہے اس لیے معاشرے کی مکمل ترجمانی کرتا ہے۔
ادبی اصطلاح میں دیکھا جائے تو ناول سے مراد ایک ایسی کہانی ہے جس میں پوری زندگی بیان کی جاتی ہے۔ناول ادب کی ایک صنف ہے لغت میں ناول کے معنیٰ’’نادر‘‘نئی بات یانئی چیز کے ہیں۔یہ اطالوی زبان کے لفظ’’ناولا‘‘سے نکلا ہے ناول کے ،معنی بھی’’نیا ‘‘کے ہیں۔
معاشی ،مذہبی،سیاسی،سماجی،نفسیاتی چاہے زندگی کا کوئی بھی موڑ ہو ناول میں ہر پہلو کو کھل کر بیان کیا جاسکتا ہے۔قدیم زمانے میں داستان کا عروج تھا اور زمانے کی ترقی کے ساتھ ساتھ عصر جدید میں ادب کی نئی صورتیں سامنے آئیں۔ناول داستان کی ہی ترقی یافتہ شکل ہے۔
دوسرے اصناف ادب کی نسبت اردو ناول کی عمر کم ہے۔مگر ناول نے اپنا راستہ طے کرتے ہوئے منزل کو پالیا۔طویل داستان جس کے لیے نشستیں درکار ہوتی ہیں اس میں تبدیلیاں کرنے کے بعد مختصر کیا گیا اور ناول کا نام دیا گیا۔اردو ناول عروج وزوال کی منزلیں طے کرتا ہوا عصر حاضر میں جدید ناول کی طرف گامزن ہے۔
ناول دراصل عصر حاضر میں اس زمانے اور معاشرے کی سچی تصویر پیش کر رہا ہے بہر کیف ناول کے تمام عناصر کو نہایت ہی خوبصورتی اور ہم آہنگی ،تخلیقی و فنی دلکشی ، توازن اور فن کارانہ سلیقہ مندی کے ساتھ منظر عام پر لے آنا ہی ناول نگارکے لیے کامیابی کی دلیل ہے...
All mighty Allah (SWT) has created man and made him crown of the nature. For the physical needs of human being, Allah provided him all the needful things. In the same way, Allah (SWT) sent his prophets for the spiritual guidance of mankind. Prophet Muhammad (SAW) was the last messenger of this chain of the prophets. The Prophet hood of Muhammad (SAW) was for the whole of the mankind, for all the people till the day of judgment. Because Allah (SWT) called him the “Seal of the prophets”. And it the gift of Allah to whom he wants to give, he gives. Nobody can achieve this (prophet hood) by its struggle. All the prophets of Allah (SWT) were given instructions through revelation. Some people, who were unable to accept Islam, would make jokes of the teachings of the Prophet (SAW), but he continued his mission and the world witnessed a day when Islam spread all over the world. Some non-Muslims, specially the orientalists, tried to pin point some aspects of the life of the Holy Prophets (in their thinking) but as Allah (SWT) said: And we raised high your name. (Al-Quran: 94: 4) Lesley Hazelton is one of those orientalists. She wrote many books about Islam. Her famous book is “The First Muslim-The Story of Muhammad” in which she has targeted many aspects of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW). This article discusses her views about the Prophet hood, Revelation and the Miracles of the Holy Prophet (SAW). It is out of the human mind to understand the reality of the Prophet hood and revelation. It is the gift of Allah to whom he wants, He gives prophet hood. The family, fame, wealth and physical strength cannot be the reasons for the achievement of Prophet hood. The human mind cannot grab the reality of the revelation.
With the public’s enhanced interest to eco-safety and health concerns, environment friendly and non-toxic bio-resource products are regaining popularity in different spheres of our lives. Natural dyes obtained from plants, insects/animals and minerals are renewable and sustainable bio-resource products used in textiles. As the use of synthetic dyes has detrimental effects on environment so natural dyes re-emerge as an alternative to synthetic dyes. The present study was concerned with extraction of colorant and their characterization from different algal groups. Green algae were collected from Faisalabad Pakistan. Brown and red algae were obtained through the courtesy of Marine Biology Department, University of Karachi, Karachi. Extraction of colorants was carried out using aqueous, alkaline and organic media. Different dyeing parameters such as temperature (30-70⁰C), time (30-70 minutes), pH (4-11), salt concentration (4-12 g/L) and material liquor ratio were optimized. For improvement of color strength on to fabric, different mordants such as iron, copper, alum and tannic acid with concentration were applied. Suggested ISO standard method for color fastness to light, washing and rubbing were employed. The results indicated that different algal species used in the study could be potential source of natural colorants for sustainable textile dyeing. In general, alkaline media (KOH solution) proved to be an efficient media for extraction of natural colorants from all algal species used in the study. Condition optimization experiments indicated that 4g/100 ml salt was optimum exhausting agent in case of cladophora glomerata L., 45 minutes time in case of Laurencia obtuse, 7 pH in case of Laurencia obtuse and 75⁰C optimum temperature in case of Sargassum muticum. All the algal species showed maximum light fastness, rubbing and washing fastness properties and proved to be a excellent source of natural colorant. Antimicrobial activity determination experiments indicated that the cotton fabrics dyed with extract of varying algal species showed differential behavior against the two bacterial species E. coliand Staphylococcus aureus used in the study.
