مجاہد ملّت مولانا حفظ الرحمن
(جمعیۃ علمائے ہند کی آخری شمع بجھ گئی)
جس حادثہ کا دھڑکا عرصہ سے لگا ہوا تھا، بالآخر وہ پیش آہی گیا، اور مجا ہد ملت مولانا حفظ الرحمن صاحب ۲؍ اگست ۱۹۶۲ء کو صبح صا دق کے وقت اپنے رب کے حضور میں حاضر ہو گئے، موت کوئی غیر معمولی واقعہ نہیں، ہر وقت اس کا بازار گرم ہے، روزانہ ہزاروں لاکھوں انسان مرتے رہتے ہیں، مگر کسی کو اس کا احساس بھی نہیں ہوتا، لیکن بعض موتیں وہ ہو تی ہیں جن سے ایک قوم اور ایک ملت کی پوری عمارت متزلزل ہوجا تی ہے، مولانا حفظ الرحمن صاحب کی وفا ت بھی انہی میں سے ہے:
فما کان قیس ھلکہ ھلک واحد ولکنہ بنیان قوم تھدما
ان کی موت سے ہماری قو می و ملی عما رت کا بہت بڑا ستون گرگیا، مولانا کی پوری زندگی اور زندگی کا ہر لمحہ ملک وملت کی خدمت میں گذرا حتیٰ کہ مرضِ الموت میں بھی اس سے غافل نہ رہے اور اپنی ان تھک محنت سے اس راہ میں جان تک دیدی، اس لیے اگر زندگی میں وہ مجاہد ملت تھے تو موت کے بعد شہید ملت ہیں۔
ان کی پوری زندگی ایک سعی پیہم اور جہد مسلسل تھی، جس سے ان کو ہندوستان کی آزادی کے بعد بھی نجات نہیں ملی، آزادی نے جنگ آزادی سے بھی زیادہ مشکل اور پیچیدہ مسائل پیدا کردیے تھے، ایک طرف فرقہ پروری کا سیلاب تھا جو آزادی کے اصل مقصد ہی کو خس وخاشاک کی طرح بہائے لیے جارہا تھا، دوسری طرف مسلمانوں کے سنگین مسائل تھے، تیسری جانب ملکی و وطنی مصالح اور صحیح جمہوری اور سیکولر بنیادوں پر آزاد ہندوستان کی تعمیر تھی، اس بحرانی دور میں ان سب سے عہدہ برآ ہونا آسان نہ تھا، فرقہ پروری نے بڑے بڑے قوم...
Quran has deep relation with science. For Example Quran teaches us about the creation of the world, human being, all the living and nonliving things and its advantages and disadvantages. Quran also tells us about the different diseases and its cure. Now in the modern time the scientist are following the Quran for their scientific research. There are 13 hundred verses in Quran belongs to human thoughts. Just like this there are different explanation about the human’s health and food and these things are related to science. The Quran has presented knowledge about mountains, sea, water, air environment etc.
The purpose of the study was to investigate the levels of anxiety, depression, and meaning of life and degree of religiosity in clinical and non-clinical groups. The clinical group (n=250) comprised individuals suffering from GAD, OCD and MDD and the non-clinical group (n=250) consisted of those who were not suffering from any psychological disorder. The groups were compared in terms of their degrees of religiosity and meaning of life. The sample (N=500) was purposive, comprising equal number of males and females, ranging in age from 18 to 45 years (M=29.86, SD=8.10) and with educational level of graduation (14 years of schooling) or higher than that, which was taken from hospitals and other areas of Peshawar. It was hypothesized that the clinical group would have lower degrees of religiosity and meaning of life than the non-clinical group and that females would have higher degrees of religiosity and meaning of life as compared to males. The respondents’ degree of religiosity was determined by their scores obtained through the Index of Religiosity (IR). Their meaning of life was assessed through Life Regard Index-R (LRI-R). IPAT Anxiety Scale and Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) were used to measure the levels of anxiety and depression respectively. The data was statistically analyzed by using t-test, Pearson product-moment correlation and stepwise regression. The results show that the non-clinical group had a significantly higher level of religiosity (t = 10.616, p = .000, d = .95) and meaning of life (t = 31.84, p = .000,d = 2.85) than the clinical group. Religiosity was found to be significantly (p <.01) negatively correlated with anxiety (r = -.50) and depression (r = -.49). Similarly meaning of life was also significantly (p <.01) negatively correlated with anxiety (r = -.86) and depression (r = -.71). Stepwise regression analysis revealed that meaning of life is the strongest negative predictor of both anxiety and depression. The females had a significantly higher level of religiosity than males (t = 3.991, p = .000, d = .31). The females scored higher on IPAT Anxiety scale and BDI-II but lower on LRI-R as compared to males. The gender differences were low and non-significant with small effect sizes in anxiety (t = 1.430, p = .153, d = 0.13), depression (t = .518, p = .605,d = 0.04) and meaning of life (t = .663, p = .508, d = 0.06). The main hypotheses were supported by the study. It is concluded that individuals suffering from GAD, OCD and MDD experience lower levels of religiosity and meaning of life and females live through more religious lives. Females are only marginally more anxious and depressed than males and the males demonstrate slightly higher level of meaning of life than females. The study has implications for clinicians and general public.
