A research project was initiated at Gomal University, Dera Ismail Khan, and NWFP, PAKISTAN during 2004 - 2005; comprising of four experiments, laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with split-plots arrangements with four replications. 1 st experiment was “Effect of Phosphorus Levels and Irrigation Regimes on the Yield and Yield Components of Transplanted Coarse Rice” in which five P 2 O 5 levels were kept in main plots while the four irrigation regimes were kept in sub- plots. The sub-plot size was 5 X 3 m 2 . The 2nd trial pertaining to “Effect of Plant Growth Regulator (NAA) Levels and Irrigation Regimes on the Yield and Yield Components of Transplanted Coarse Rice” was also laid out in RCBD with split plot arrangement, keeping four levels of NAA plant growth regulator in main plots while the four irrigation regimes were kept in sub-plots. Third experiment was on “Effect of Phosphorus and Plant Growth Regulator (NAA) Levels on the Yield and Yield Components of Transplanted Coarse Rice” having four levels of NAA plant growth regulator in main plots and in sub plots five P 2 O 5 levels maintained. In forth experiment “Effect of Plant Growth Regulator (NAA) Levels at Different Growth Stages of Transplanted Coarse Rice” the growth stages of rice of crop were kept in main plots and four levels of (NAA) plant growth regulator were kept in sub plots. Well-adapted coarse rice variety IR-6 was used in the research project. Thirty- five days old rice nursery was used in the all experiments. Data were recorded on various growth and yield parameters like plant height (cm), productive tillers m -2 , unproductive tillers m -2 , panicles m -2 , spikelets panicle -1 , sterility and normal kernels percentage, 1000-grain weight (g), paddy yield (t ha-1), straw yield (t ha-1) and harvest index. In experiment 1, the combination P 3 I 2 (150 kg ha -1 P 2 O 5 with 10 irrigations containing 750 mm water (distributed in 10 irrigations)), proved the best combination for getting maximum paddy yield. In experiment 2, it was determined that xiiisignificantly higher (8.50 and 8.60 t ha -1 ) paddy yield was recorded in the plots treated with G 2 I 2 (90 ml ha -1 level of plant growth regulator and 10 irrigations) during 2004 and 2005, respectively and the lowest paddy yield was recorded in treatment G 0 I 1 (without plant growth regulator level with 8 irrigations) with the values of 3.60 and 3.75 t ha -1 during 1 st and 2 nd year, respectively. While in experiment 3, it was observed that the treatment G 2 P 2 (90 ml ha -1 plant growth regulators level with 100 kg ha -1 phosphatic fertilizer was on top with maximum paddy yield (8.70 and 8.90 t ha-1) during 2004 and 2005, respectively. In forth experiment it was found that paddy yield of the treatment S2G2 (panicle initiation stage with plant growth regulator level of 90 ml ha -1 ) produced maximum paddy yield of (9.00 and 9.20 t ha - 1 ) during both the years of study. On the basis of research findings, it is concluded that for getting maximum yield of paddy under agro climatic conditions of Dera Ismail Khan the farmer should apply 750 mm water, 90 ml plant growth regulator (NAA) on panicle initiation stage. However while applying the plant growth regulator the farmer can reduce the P 2 O 5 dose up to 100 kg ha -1 instead of 150 kg ha -1 and vice versa.

تکملہ فتح الملہم میں متون احادیث کی لغوی تحقیق و مباحث

The discipline of Hadith Studies is one of the richest and exclusive disciplines of knowledge as its branches extend to hundred. The religious scholars had written thousands monographs concerning Hadith interpretations and explana-tions. Many voluminous works appeared and exist and each of them is a commendable contribution to Hadith explanations. One of significant works on Hadith explanations is “Takmila Fath al-Mulhim” that is the result of scholastic efforts of many years by Mufti Muhammad Taqi Usmani. This explanation of Hadith Book Muslim was originated and finished till the “section of Marriage” by Allama Shabbir Ahmad Usmani but he could not extend to it to the last chapter due to his political engagements and later his demise closed the chapter. Molana Muhammad Taqi Usmani completed the remaining works in 18 years & 9 months. His method of interpretation is to decipher complicated, manifold and exotic words at first as the words plays key role in authentication and validity of any connotation. He provides detailed information regarding literal and lexical meaning of a word and then with proper justification and reasoning, he gives preference to someone. He also narrates variation and diversity of meaning attached to any word and proves his standpoint about meanings with allied arguments. This article analyses his method with examples and implications.

A Case Study of Alternative Assessment Practices in a Ccac Graduate Primary Science Classroom, in a Community-Based School in Pakistan

It is believed by many educationists that the traditional assessment approaches are less effective in students' learning. The contemporary trend in education favours the practice of alternative forms of assessment for improved students' learning outcomes. However, in the context of Pakistan traditional forms of assessment are being practiced in the classroom, which is considered a hindrance towards the holistic development of the learner and for the overall quality education in the country. The main aim of this study was to explore a science teacher's purposes, practices, challenges and opportunities of implementation of alternative assessment, who has participated in AKU-IED's Certificate in Classroom Assessment Course to contribute towards the understanding of implementation of alternative assessments in developing country context and subsequently to improve students' learning. A qualitative case study approach was used to explore the research topic. A primary level science teacher of a community based high school in Karachi, Pakistan was the primary participant, while the vice principal, section head of primary, a science teacher and a group of students of the school, formed the secondary participants. The data was collected through classroom observation, interviews, document analysis, field notes and reflective journal. The study revealed that, the research participant used alternative assessment for variety of purposes such as to enhance students' learning, providing feedback and grading. Questioning was practiced for getting students' attention and promoting thinking skills. Self assessment was used for giving students responsibility of their own learning and performance assessment was practiced to provide students opportunities to demonstrate variety of skills. The opportunities for implementing alternative assessment included teacher's professional development, which developed her basic understanding and skills for planning and implementation of alternative assessment. The skills included developing open ended questions, designing objectives based assessment tasks, setting clear learning targets and criteria which are aligned with her instructions and the provision of clear criteria and rubric based instructions to the students. Moreover, the features such as supportive school culture and autonomy for teacher to develop own syllabus, were seen to facilitate the process of alternative assessment in the classroom. The alternative assessment practices were also seen to facilitate student learning through their involvement in the activities, motivations towards their work and responsibility of their own learning. However, the study also revealed limited use of alternative assessment, such as lack of provision of opportunity for students to improve their work based on timely feedback. The challenges were limited
