ﷺ
میں صحنِ دل کے پت جھڑ کو ، بہارِ جاوداں کر لوں
محبت جانِ عالمؐ کی ، اگر روحِ رواں کر لوں
غم و آلامِ دنیا سے ، ذرا سا بھی جو گبھرائے
تو یادِ مونسِ جاںؐ سے ، میں دل کو شادماں کر لوں
سجائی بزمِ عالم ؛ جنؐ کی خاطر ؛ خالقِ کُل نے
اُنھیؐ کا ذکر کرنے کو ، میں بزمِ دوستاں کر لوں
سمائی نکہتِ بادِ بہاری میں مہک جنؐ کی
اُنھیںؐ سے خوشبوئیں لے کر میں دل کو گلستاں کر لوں
یہی سالک کو لے کر جا رہا ہے منزلِ حق پر
اسی نقشِ قدم کو چوم کر ، منزل نشاں کر لوں
اِدھر کر لوں زبانِ اشک سے عرضِ تمنا بھی
اُدھر چشمِ تصور میں سنہری جالیاں کر لوں
ادب گاہِ عقیدت میں کہاں الفاظ جچتے ہیں
’’طریقہ سب سے بہتر ہے کہ اشکوں کو زباں کر لوں‘‘
دلِ بے تاب کے لمحات اُنؐ کی یاد میں گزریں
جہانِ رنگ و بُو میں کیوں انھیں میں رائیگاں کر لوں
دلِ فرقت زدہ عرفانؔ! اُنؐ کے ذکر سے خوش ہو
میں صبح و شام اُنؐ کے نام کو وردِ زباں کر لوں
As a result of the political crisis in Pakistan, the Martial Law regime of General Zia Al-Haq came into power on July 5, 1977. The process of Islamization was given a new boost during the period of Zia Al-Haq 1977- 1988. He launched a comprehensive scheme to eradicate non-Islamic practices in Pakistani state and society. His Islamization program contemplated significant reforms in the legal-constitutional, socioeconomic and educational institutions of Pakistan. The principles of Zakāt -‘Ushr ordinance, Islamic Ḥudūd and Penal code were introduced in the country. To Islamizing the economy Ribā abandoning and Profit and Loss sharing accounts in banks were initiated. Besides, he renamed parliament as Majlis Al-Shūrā; the Federal Sharī‘at Court, Sharī‘at Appellate Benches and Sharī‘ah Council were established in the country. Under the umbrella of Nizām-e-Muṣṭafā, social reforms were introduced, through the stressing of sanctity of the Holy month of Ramaḍān, enforcement of the bans on gambling and encouragement of chadar for women. Un-Islamic programs were banned on television and radio and news in Arabic was made compulsory. The stated objectives of President Zia’s Islamization policies were to lead Pakistan in the direction of truly Islamic state. However, the critics of his polices considered it a tool for legitimizing and enhancing his political powers in the country.
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.
