آہ! ڈاکٹر ظفر الہُدیٰ
ڈاکٹر ظفر الہدیٰ ایم، اے۔ پی، ایچ۔ ڈی، علامہ شبلیؒ کی بڑی پوتی کے شوہر تھے، ان کا آبائی وطن تو اعظم گڑھ ضلع ہی میں تھا، مگر ان کے گھر کے لوگ دربھنگہ (بہار) منتقل ہوگئے تھے، اس لئے پٹنہ یونیورسٹی میں اپنی انگریزی تعلیم کی تکمیل کی، وہاں سے فارسی اور اردو میں ایم، اے کرنے کے بعد ڈھاکہ یونیورسٹی میں لکچرار ہوگئے، وہیں سے پنشن پاکر ڈھاکہ میں مقیم تھے کہ ۷؍ مارچ ۱۹۷۸ء کو اﷲ کو پیارے ہوئے، ان کی وفات علامہ شبلیؒ کے خاندان کا ایک المناک سانحہ ہے، وہ اپنے شاگردوں اور یونیورسٹی کے رفقائے کار میں اپنے اخلاق، اخلاص، محبت اور میٹھی زبان کی وجہ سے بہت مقبول تھے، اسی لئے جب بنگلہ دیش میں خونیں انقلاب آیا تو وہاں کی سفاکانہ اور بیرحمانہ خونریزی میں ہر طرح محفوظ رہے، ان کے اور رفقائے کار تو کراچی منتقل ہوگئے، لیکن انھوں نے ڈھاکہ ہی میں رہنا پسند کیا، بنگالیوں نے غیر بنگالیوں کے ساتھ جو بے رحمانہ سلوک کیا تھا، اس کی وجہ سے بنگلہ دیش کے لوگوں کے خلاف ہندوستان کے مسلمانوں میں بڑا سخت ردعمل تھا، اس کو ڈاکٹر ظفر الہدیٰ اپنے خطوط میں یہ لکھ کر دور کرنے کی کوشش کرتے رہے کہ آخیر یہ لوگ بھی مسلمان ہیں، وہاں کے مسلمانوں کے لئے اسلام کا صالح لٹریچر پیش کرنے کی خاطر شبلی اکیڈمی بھی قائم کی، دارالمصنفین کی مطبوعات کو بنگلہ زبان میں ترجمہ کرانے کی علمی مہم شروع کی، ان کا کام کچھ چل نکلا تھا کہ وہ وہاں پہنچ گئے، جہاں ایک روز سب کو جانا ہے۔
ان کو دارالمصنفین اور اس کے وسیلہ سے میری حقیر ذات سے بڑی محبت رہی ہے، جب کبھی ڈھاکہ گیا تو وہ مجھ سے سگے بھائی کی طرح ملے اور خاطر تواضع میں...

Exponential growth in information and communication technology (ICT) has put the school leaders in a situation where they are expected to use ICT for teaching and learning process. They are also expected to prepare the teaching staff, so that students would be prepared for the future. Literature suggests that school headteachers have a potential role to play in promoting the use of ICT in schools. It also suggests that for the promotion of ICT among teachers, a headteacher can play a role in developing teachers professionally. Moreover, s/he can develop a collaborative culture among the teachers so that they could learn from each other. However, the first condition for the promotion of ICT is the availability of ICT resources. Therefore, the headteachers are in a challenging situation to first acquire the resources and then manage them in such a way that their potential benefits could be achieved. Since ICT is a recent phenomenon in most of the schools, especially in Pakistan, it is difficult to work with all the stakeholders simultaneously. Also, due to the huge student population in most of the schools, a gap between users and the resources, which hampers the promotion of ICT use. Therefore, it is imperative to work with a group of teachers who are more inclined towards ICT or have leadership positions at the first stage, so that they could be prepared and who can help others learn to use ICT. For this purpose, the study explores the role of headteacher in promoting the use of ICT among learning area coordinators (LACs) who are subject teachers and lead small groups of subject teachers at the New Vision Secondary School (NVSS) in Karachi, Pakistan. The school was selected, because it belongs to the school system that I work for, and the headteacher seemed keen to promote the use of ICT among the LACs in the school. The study was carried out in a qualitative research paradigm. Data were collected through interviews, observations, informal discussion and document analysis. The empirical evidence showed that the roles played by the headteacher in the NVSS were not different from what has been found in the literature. The headteacher played the role of resource manager and a leader. Similarly, she made the efforts to provide opportunities of learning to the LACs. She has attempted to develop a learning environment through her own examples. This learning culture has helped the LACs,
