The lower Indus plain, which is known as Sindh, is desert, hot and arid. The maximum temperature ranges here from 95o F in the south to 121o F in the north. The average annual rainfall, which all comes in summer, is less then 10 inches and decrease from an annual total 8 inches in the south to 3 inches in north. The Indus enters Sindh near Kashmore, at about 200 ft above sea level. From Kashmore to the Arabian Sea the plain extends over an area of about 248,000 sq miles, and has a mean south gradient of 6 inches per mile. The Indus is the main river carrying the major surface flow. It draws its water from melt and permanent glaciers from the mountains in the north east at Kailua’s in Himalayas. Agriculture here has always been completely dependent on irrigation. This part of the subcontinent was the first region to reclaim for farming but the works of water control system constructed at that time were abundant more than 3000 years ago, and were not restored on a comparable scale until late in the last century. Many developments were carried out here, depending upon the current knowledge of the experts of that era. Only a few records have been preserved to indicate the ancient irrigation systems practiced in Sindh. The records reveal the presence of the canals before the Moen-Jo-Daro civilization, but the condition of canals was very poor; they were unlined and awkward in shape. Agriculture advance has accelerated in the last century through the construction of Barrages and lined canals and, recently through high dams in upper valley section and through tube wells in lower Indus valley. Our concern is with the last of these innovations, the tube wells, and more widely with the importance of ground water in the modern economy of Sindh. The exploration and tapping of aquifers have effected revolutionary changes in the rural economy of Sindh, not least in the struggles against the disastrous process of salinity of surface soil, the most unfortunate side-effect of large scale canal irrigation. We observe, however, that the discovery and mapping of groundwater deposits requires special techniques, huge capital and local experience. We further observe that the use of groundwater varies greatly from one district of Sindh to another. In order to discover why this is so, we chose 6 contrasting administrative units or dehs, three to the West of the Indus – Allahabad, Pat and Mehar served by Dadu canal, and three to the east called Manahi, Bundh and Tando Adam served by the Rohri Canal. The first three of these have few tube wells and make little use of groundwater, while the second group has many working tube wells and bring, to the surface much deeper subterranean water. After a close study of the lay-out, economic, sociology, and tenure systems of the six villages, we conclude that the last of these factors the type of land holding is mostly accountable for the observed differences in the use of groundwater. We conclude that tube wells are too expensive for the ordinary small-holder, and that they are of benefit mainly for the large landowners who can afford them. In due course, as the land reforms are more widely effective, the situation may change. Meanwhile, it is evident that there is still much scope for the further exploitation of groundwater which, together with other technological changes, has gone far towards making life more secure, for the large landowners than the small farmers.
’’صدیق کے لئے ہے خدا کا رسول بس‘‘ امت کے بہترین افراد کو نبیصلی اللہ علیہ و آلہٖ وسلم کے صحابہ رضوان اللہ تعالیٰ اجمعین کے نام سے یاد کیا جا تا ہے ، یہ ایسے نفوس قدسیہ ہیں جن کے پیشِ نظر نزول وحی ہوتا ہے۔ جن کی نظر یں جلوۂ نبوت کا طواف کرتی ہیں۔ جن کے کانوں سے زبانِ مصطفیٰ صلی اللہ علیہ و آلہٖ وسلمسے نکلنے والے الفاظ معانقہ کرتے ہیں، جن کی کفِ پانقش نعلینِ مصطفی صلی اللہ علیہ و آلہٖ وسلمکی تلاش میں سر گرداں رہتی ہیں، جن کے شب وروز معجزات نبی صلی اللہ علیہ و آلہٖ وسلم کا مشاہدہ کرتے رہتے ہیں، نبی صلی اللہ علیہ و آلہٖ وسلمکی نظر یں جن کی تربیّت کرتی ہیں، جن کی آنکھوں میں نبوت سراپا، قلوب و اذہان میں نبی صلی اللہ علیہ و آلہٖ وسلمکی سوچ اور تعمیر میں نبی صلی اللہ علیہ و آلہٖ وسلم کا کردار پیش نظر ہوتا ہے۔ جس طرح جملہ انبیاء کرام علیہ السلام میں گنبدِخضریٰ کے مکین کا کوئی ثانی نہیں ہے۔ اسی طرح آپ صلی اللہ علیہ و آلہٖ وسلم کے صحابہ رضوان اللہ تعالیٰ اجمعین کی بھی مثال دیگر انبیاء علیہ السلام کے صحابہ سے نہیں ملتی۔ حضور صلی اللہ علیہ و آلہٖ وسلم کے تمام صحابہ کرام رضوان اللہ تعالیٰ اجمعین آپ صلی اللہ علیہ و آلہٖ وسلم کے جانثار تھے لیکن جانثاری کی جو مثالیں صدیقِ اکبر ثنے قائم کیں۔ تاریخ کے اوراق ایسی مثال سے قاصر ہیں۔ تاریخِ اسلام کا مؤرخ ایسی مثال پیش کرنے سے قاصر ہے، تاریخِ عالم رقم کرنے والے جملہ مؤرخین ایک عظیم محبت اور جانثاری کی مثال دینے کیلئے اپنے لبوں کو اور اپنے قلم کوجنبش دینے میں بے بس نظر آتے ہیں۔ سیدنا صدیقِ اکبر ص کا اوڑھنا بچھونا سنت ِمصطفی صلی اللہ علیہ...
In Islamic point of view, the family is an institution that starts from the legal bond of marriage. The marriage is a contract that confirms the mutual rights of husband and wife. Including the other rights, one is the provision of maintenance to wife. The wife having leaving her family and making a life time compromise to live with her husband reserves the right to be exempted from all kind of financial obligations. In Islamic family system, the husband is responsible both in legal and moral angles, to support his wife and provide the maintenance according to his financial status. Likewise, the wife has the right to demand the provision of maintenance from her husband. In time of none Provision, she can take this right through court. The wife reserves this right only if she is willing to live with her husband and does not disobey her husband’s reasonable orders. If it is so, then the stand for provision of maintenance shall be treated as invalid. In this paper, the matter of maintenance provision and its related problems have been discussed in contrast with the Pakistan family Laws which will provide a profound knowledge to the readers.
Milk is an important food component in our country and has great nutritious value. But contamination of milk makes it harmful for health. Staphylococcus aureus is a zoonotic pathogen which can cause a potential threat to the public health. The S. aureus associated infections affect the animal?s milk quality and quantity which create a burden on the economics industry.The main purpose of our research was to identify the rate of the possibility of the presence of Staphylococcus aureus in the available raw milk at Muzaffer Garh district. Total 100 samples were collected from different areas of district Muzaffargarh, such as Jutoi, Alipur, Kotadu, Murad Abad, Choak Qureshi, Ahmadpur, Ruhilan Wali, shahjamal, Khanpur and Muzaffargarh city. Isolation of S. aureus and the detection of S. aureus was performed by the used of biochemical and molecular tests from the collected samples. The samples were cultured on mannitol salt agar which contained a high concentration of salt which sport the growth of gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus and Micrococcaceae). Yellow zones appeared in 80 samples which indicated the presence of S. aureus and then detected by gram staining which showed 80/100(80%) positive results. S. aureus fermentation test showed 76/100(76%) positive results and other biochemical tests such as catalase test 63/100(63%), coagulase test 52/100(52%), methyl red (MR) test 42/100(42%), Voges Proskauer (VP) test 40/100(40%). Finally, the detected colonies were subculture and DNA was extracted from that bacterial culture. Molecular detection was done through PCR. To amplify the sequences of 16S rRNA gene, PCR assay was used which is considered to be the standard for detection of S. aureus by using the nuc gene 447bp. The PCR products were analyzed by the visualization of agarose gel electrophoresis. There were 11 samples out of 100 samples, showed positive results for the detection of S. aureus. Ten different areas of Muzaffargarh district showed the different tendency of the existence of S. aureus, such as S. aureus detected in raw milk of buffalo of Alipur 1/10(10%). The S. aureus existence in buffalo milk of Jutoi 2/10(20%), Murad Abad 1/10(10%), Ruhilan Wali 1/10(10%), city Muzaffargarh 2/10(20%), Khanpur 1/10(10%), Ahmadpur 1/10(20%), Shahjamal 1/10(10%) while samples collected from Kotadu and Choak Qureshi showed negative PCR results for S. aureus. This study indicated the potential of staphylococcal food poisoning and health risks in district Muzaffargarh. Poor hygienic conditions effect the bacterial growth and S. aureus availability also related to the hygienic conditions.
