مذاہب التفسیر الاسلامی کی روشنی میں مستشرق گولڈ زیہرکےاعتراضات کا علمی جائزہ A Critical analysis of Goldzehr's objections in the light Maẓahib al-Tafsīr al-Islāmī.

Goldziher 1850-1921 is a Jewish Orientalist. His interest in the study of Islam took him to the famous Syrian scholar Sheikh Tahir Al-Jazāirī and after spending a long time in his company he moved to Palestine and then to Egypt. Where he benefited from the scholars of Aẓhar University. Among the Orientalists who have formally and fundamentally debated the Qur'anic text and recitations is Gold Poison. He is known for his objections to Hadith and Qur'anic recitations. Dr. Abdul Haleem Al-Najjar, a lecturer at Cairo University, has translated the famous book Muslim Studies of Goldziher into Arabic concerning the different methods and methods of recitation, tafsir, and tafsir of the Holy Quran. This translation was first published by Maktab al-Khanji in Cairo, Egypt in 1955 and reached the hands of the masters of science and literature and became popular. This book is a unique and brand new work of its kind in presenting various topics of the Quran and important aspects of Islamic culture and history in an excellent manner and style. Goldziher proved his meticulous study of the religions of Tafsir al-Islami and his in-depth study of Islam. But there is a difference between a Muslim and a non-Muslim studying Islam, this difference is visible in this book. Goldziher did not describe all the methods of commentary in this book. In addition, the author, like other Orientalists, has erred in interpreting some religious sentiments. Some Muslim scholars call such objections to Goldziher scientific errors. And some see it as part of a deliberate Zionist Orientalist conspiracy. However, the aspects of Tafseer which Goldziher has written about are very important, and much more needs to be written about them. Goldziher's investigation into the Qur'anic text has opened up new avenues for other Orientalists.The said article will present an analytical study of the Qur'anic text, Goldziher's objections to various recitations, and the contents of the book.

The Efect of Silence, and Voice Behaviors, on Citizenship, and Counterproductive Behaviors With Moderating Role of Organizational Identification

At some instances, employees raise their voice while in other circumstances they remain silent. These behaviors affect task and non-task performance of employees. The purpose of this study is to evaluate how organizational silence and voice effect the ability of employees in displaying organizational citizenship and counterproductive work behavior. Furthermore, literature shows that organizational identification plays an important role in determining organizational non-task performance. To evaluate this phenomenon moderation effect of organizational identification were analyzed on the relationships of organizational silence and voice with organizational citizenship and counterproductive behaviors. The moderation effects were also analyzed between motives based sub-dimensions of organizational voice and silence, and individual and organizational based sub-dimensions of organizational citizenship and counterproductive work behaviors. This study was conducted on academic faculty of three public sector universities of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan selected based on their respective organizational lifecycle stages. Results of the study show that organizational silence and voice negatively effects the ability of employees in displaying helpful non-task behaviors i.e. organizational citizenship behaviors. In contrast, they strengthen the display of harmful behaviors in employees i.e. counterproductive work behavior. The withdrawal and defensive motive based silence and voice has a negative relationship with organizational citizenship behavior and a positive relationship with counterproductive work behavior, while the prosocial motive based silence and voice promotes organizational citizenship behavior and prevents employee to display counterproductive work behaviors. Interestingly positive behaviors directed towards individual (OCBI) are also amplified with withdrawal and defensive motive based silence and voice while repressed by prosocial motive based of silence and voice. xviii Organizational identification was found positively related with organizational citizenship behavior while negatively related with counterproductive work behavior, organizational silence and organizational voice. When employed as a moderating variable the analyses resulted in four primary models. In model 1 and 2, organizational identification strengthened the negative relationship of organizational silence and voice with organizational citizenship behavior. On the contrary, in model 3 and 4 organizational identification dampens the positive relationship of organizational silence and voice with counterproductive work behaviors. Relationships between the sub-dimensions of the dependent and independent variables were also tested for the moderation effects of organizational identification resulting in 24 secondary models displaying varied results. This study provides an insight into the relationships between the variables of social exchange theory and the impact of different levels of identification on these relationships. In this study for the first time organizational silence, voice, citizenship, counterproductive work behaviors and organizational identification were studied together in a mutual relationship. Furthermore, literature is scarce about the said variables being investigated under the methodology employed in this study. Finally, these relationships have been tested at second level analysis by presenting and reporting relationship between the sub-dimensions of the variables. This study hence not only provides a detailed and comprehensive investigation and managerial implication itself but also encourages further wide-ranging investigations into the dynamic interconnections of voice, silence, citizenship and counterproductive behaviors.
