Attachment, either parental or peer, is an eternal affectional bond of substantial intensity, and becomes of prime importance in the physical and psychological development of adolescents. This study was aimed to investigate the relationship of parental and peer attachment bonds with career decision making self efficacy (CDMSE) and identity development (Id-Dev) among adolescents and post- adolescents. The study was carried out in three phases: Phase-I constituted of evaluation of the language used in the instruments, Phase-II was a pilot study in which pre-testing of the scales was carried out to assess psychometric properties of the scales used in the main study, and also to see applicability of the research design, Phase-III covered the main study accomplishment. A criterion was formulated to screen the desired sample and the participants in the age range of 17 to 25 years belonging to middle socioeconomic class were included in the study. It was ensured that only those participants were included whose both parents were alive and living together. Care was also taken to include those participants who were day scholars and not residing in hostel. Non-probability purposive sampling was used in the main study of the research and total sample collected was 550 adolescents and post- adolescents studying in different government colleges and universities of Rawalpindi and Islamabad including both males (n = 300) and females (n = 250). All participants were asked to complete a separate demographic sheet so as to have a clear picture of their background. Scales used in study were Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment-R (IPPA-R), Career Decision-Making Self-Efficacy Scale-Short Form (CDMSE-SF), and the Extended Objective Measure of Ego Identity Status (EOM-EIS-2). Correlations, t-test, regression analysis was conducted for testing hypotheses. Predictability of variables i.e. predicting level of CDMSE & Id-Dev in relation to parental and peer attachment bonds was also assessed. Findings of the study revealed that there was a positive relationship among the variables studied (i.e. CDMSE & parental and peer attachment bonds & Id-Dev and parental as well as peer attachment bonds). It highlighted that when more and more parental and peer attachment bonds are there, more will be CDMSE that also influences a healthy Id- Dev of the youngsters. The outcome of this result signify the contribution of both parents well as peers attachment bonds in predicting CDMSE of adolescents and post-adolescents, however parental attachment bonds are more powerful in prediction of CDMSE as compared to peers attachment bonds. Results of present study denote, both parents and peers attachment bonds play their role in prediction of Id-Dev among adolescents & post-adolescents yet peer attachment bonds more powerfully predict Id-Dev in comparison to parental attachment bonds. Findings of present study suggested that females were relatively more involved in maintaining interpersonal identity as compared to males. The results of the study suggest the further need for clarifying how the parental and peer attachment works in different family structures with variable socioeconomic background and covering different age groups of the sample

یہ آسماں جو حیرتی ہے اک ترے جمال کا

یہ آسماں جو حیرتی ہے اک ترے جمال کا
یہ حسن کیا ہے آئنہ ہے خوبی و کمال کا

یہ رنگ و نور لے رہے ہیں رہ گزار سے تری
گلاب ہو کہ چاند ہو کہ شمس ہو زوال کا

میں جنتوں کا تھا مکیں تری نگاہِ ناز سے
تاحشر مجھ سے امتحاں لیا ہے خدو خال کا

نظر سے وہ پلا کے مجھ سے کہتے ہیں کہ جائو اب
کہاں یہ حوصلہ سہوں میں لمس اُس جلال کا

میں اٹھ کے لڑکھڑا گیا تھا جب فضاؔ نے یہ کہا
یہ صورِ اسرافیل ہے، نہیں یہ پل وصال کا

Payment of Zakat to Non-Muslims in the Light of Islamic Shariah

This study revisited the literature to find answer to an important question that whether Zakat could or could not be paid to the non Muslims? There are different arguments in favor of giving the Zakat to the needy Dhimmies (non Muslims) in an Islamic State.  After reviewing Islamic teachings, laid down in holy Quran and Sunnah, the practices of pious Caliphs, in the Islamic History, views of different Islamic schools of thought and the opinion of modern Islamic jurists, the study found that Quran and Sunnah allowed the payment of zakat to the Al-Muallaf-al-Qulub (poor non-Muslims and those, whose hearts are to be inclined). However, there are differences in the opinion of various Islamic schools of thought. For example, according to Maliki and Zaidi schools of jurisprudence it is lawful to give Zakat to the non-Muslims, where as Shyafee school of thought hold opposite opinion and does not allow the payment of Zakat to the non-Muslims. The modern Islamic jurists Muhammad Shaltut, Mustafa Al-Zarka, Taha Jabir, Syed Abual Aa la Maududi, Imam Khumany of Shia School of thought etc, argue that since modern states have become welfare states, it is therefore allowed to use zakat for the well-being of citizens including the non-Muslims. The recommendations given in this study are multidimensional that we will not only help the poor non-Muslims but also complement to eradicate poverty and reduce income inequality in Muslim countries

Evolution of visual interfaces: literature review

Visual Interface as a quotient of interactive computer system represents the communication reference with users. Few researchers have defined interface as the complete spectrum of things that the user interacts with during the session of using the system. The change occurrence has been widespread, it has revolutionised not just only the personal computers but handled devices like wearable and gadgets. This has also been possible due to huge advancements in hardware; with gadgets like the smart watches and Internet of Things (IOT) integreted to every aspect of living. Thus! Need of better and well designed interfaces has increased. This research survey takes into account the different aspects of UI design and how this has been modified by the advances chronologically. The design process is not chaotic these days as it was years ago. Today each and every perspective is looked upon beforehand to design a better product. (Hughes, 2014). This leads to controlling design of UI from the very beginning of any software is required. The different quotients of the UI design is discussed
