آہ ! مولانا عثمان احمد قاسمی چل بسے
۴؍ رمضان المبارک ۱۴۱۸ھ کو راقم الحروف کے ایک کرم فرما اور دارالمصنفین کے ہمدرد مولانا عثمان احمد قاسمی اﷲ کو پیارے ہوگئے، اس کی اطلاع موصوف کے حقیقی بھانجے ڈاکٹر محمد اسامہ کے ایک خط سے ہوئی جو انتقال کے دو ہفتے بعد ملا، یہ خبر سخت تکلیف دہ تھی اور جنازہ کی شرکت سے محرومی کا تو ہمیشہ ملال رہے گا۔
شاہ گنج اور جونپور کے وسط میں پختہ سڑک کے قریب ہی غوری النسل لوگوں کی مشہور بستی پسری ان کا آبائی وطن تھا۔ ان کے جدامجد حضرت سلطان شاہ، ٹانڈہ کے مشہور صاحبِ دل بزرگ حضرت چاند شاہ کے اجل خلفاء میں تھے جو نقشبندی سلسلے سے منسلک تھے اور فیض آباد ہی نہیں اعظم گڑھ، جونپور اور سلطانپور وغیرہ کے لوگوں کو بھی ان سے بڑا فیض پہنچا۔
پسری کا یہ خاندان علمی، دینی اور دنیاوی لحاظ سے فائق تھا۔ مولانا عثمان احمد قاسمی کے جدبزرگوار کے حسبِ ذیل تین صاحبزادے تھے، مولانا عبدلغفور صاحب، مولانا دین محمد صاحب، مولانا شاہ سعید احمد صاحب، موخرالذکر کے پانچوں بیٹے دینی تعلیم سے بہرہ ور ہوئے، ان میں بڑے مولانا جمیل احمد فخرِ خاندان تھے اور سب سے چھوٹے یہی مولانا عثمان احمد تھے، مولانا دین محمد صاحب بھی عالم، اچھے استاد اور نہایت باغ و بہار شخص تھے، یہ مولانا ابوالعرفان ندوی سابق مہتمم دارالعلوم ندوۃالعلماء کے پدر بزرگوار تھے، علم و دین کی اشاعت ان کی زندگی کا خاص مشغلہ تھا، جونپور کی اٹالہ مسجد کا مدرسہ ان کے اہتمام کے زمانے میں بڑی رونق پر تھا۔
مولانا دین محمد صاحب کی جدوجہد سے شاہ گنج کی جامع مسجد میں بھی ایک دینی مدرسہ بدرالاسلام کے نام سے قائم ہوا، جس کے وہی سارے انتظامات اور تعلیمی خدمات انجام دیتے رہے مگر جب...
The study attempted to determine the perception of the Manobo tribe and their effect on their living and social conditions in Barangay Sta. Ines, San Luis Agusan del Sur. The descriptive method was used in this study describes the perception among the Manobo tribe on different aspects of life: their living and social conditions. This study was conducted in barangay Sta. Ines, san Luis Agusan Del Sur. There were only 195 of them who were taken as the respondents and researcher used the standardized questionnaire which were taken from the book of Mendez and used by the previous researchers. Hence, no validation was needed. The random sampling design was used in this study in selecting the respondents. On the level of perception among the Manobo tribe, the Manobos agree on their belief in god as supported with the total average weighted mean ranging from 2.01 to 2.73 or agree. They strongly agree to get involved in social gathering as evidenced with total weighted mean of 2.21 or agree. They strongly agree on good aspiration as evidenced with average weighted mean of 2.71 or agree. They agree on the family practices as supported with the average weighted mean of 2.45 or agree. They strongly agree on good family upbringing accompanied with an average weighted mean of 2.57 or strongly agree. They also strongly agree on how to treat visitors accompanied with an average weighted mean of 2.79 or strongly agree. On the living conditions, the Manobos rank 1 that they do not depend their main source of income but they work hard to have additional income for their family needs. They also rank 1 that their house is made up of wood, Nipa and bamboos for the shelter of their family and the Manobo rank 1 that they usually used herbal for their natural medicine but they send the sick person to the hospital for the health of the family. On the social conditions, the Manobos strongly agree to establish a neighborhood relationship with an average weighted mean of 2.78 or strongly agree. They also agree to establish kinship relationship and community relationship as indicated with an average weighted mean of 2.84 and 2.78 or strongly agree respectively. On the effect of perception on different aspects of life, belief in God, social; gathering, family practices, family upbringing and aspiration are best predictors in the financial condition of Manobo. Aspiration, family practices, treating visitors, wedding practices and social gathering are best predictors in neighborhood relationship. Wedding practices, treating visitors, aspiration, family practices, social gathering, family upbringing and belief in God as the best predictors in kinship relationship Family upbringing, aspiration, and family practices are best predictors in community relationship.
Academic grades prediction is considered as one of the hot research areas since last decade,
which comes under the domain of educational data mining. It has been observed that in
undergraduate computer science programs, programming courses are considered challenging.
This results in higher tendency of earning lower grades, failures or drop-outs than other computer
science subjects. An early prediction of the students who have high probability of failure (known
as at-risk students) will enable the instructors to intervene and provide extra guidance to learners.
An accurate prediction of student?s grades can directly influence the overall quality of any degree
program and the retention rate of the institution. This research presents a machine learning based
classification model for undergraduate students grades prediction, enrolled in any programming
course(s) in traditional education system. The proposed model is built after careful collection and
pre-processing of data, appropriate feature selection, and model evaluation based on four metrics
namely accuracy, precision, recall and F1-score. Six widely used supervised machine learning
techniques including Random Forest, Artificial Neural Network, K-Nearest Neighbors, Na?ve
Bayes, Ordinal Regression, and Support Vector Machine are used after tuning and optimization.
The data used for this research is collected from a private sector university in Lahore. The
collected data covers two major domains: student?s academic record and demographic data. The
results show that Support Vector Machine and K-Nearest Neighbors give highest scores (ranging
from 81% to 94%) for all the evaluation metrics and for all the seven programming courses
considered for this study.
