Pakistan ranks at 4th position with respect to global area and production of cotton, however the yield level is still low as compared to other major cotton producing countries. There are so many pathways which contribute to the final yield of cotton plant, one of which may be the exploitation and selection for some basic traits related to boll. Keeping in view the importance of within-boll yield components in determining the final yield, present study was carried out in research area of the Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad to estimate the genetic basis of various yield and quality attributes, combining ability and heterotic manifestation and correlation of agronomic, boll related and fibre quality traits in Gossypium hirsutum L. For this study two crosses were made involving four contrasting parents with respect to seed cotton yield and fibre quality characters. Crosses were made following triple test cross model and data on various agronomic, boll related and fibre quality traits were recorded and analyzed. Significant amount of epistatic interaction was found to be involved in expression of almost all the traits. The additive variance was greater in magnitude that dominance variance for traits like number of bolls per plant, seed cotton yield per plant, lint percentage, lint index, fibre fineness, lint mass per boll and lint mass per seed resulting in partial degree of dominance for these traits. While dominance variance was found to be greater in magnitude than additive variance for average boll weight, fibre length, fibre strength, number of seeds per boll, seed mass per boll, seed index, seed volume and seed surface area resulting in over-dominance type of gene action. Seed density showed complete dominance of the genes. BH-89 showed highest positive GCA effects for most of the traits. Among testers, CIM-1100, CIM-496and FH- 634 showed significant GCA effects for most of the traits. NIAB-999 × CIM-70 proved to be the best regarding seed cotton yield per plant and seed surface area. Combination of S- 12 with (NIAB-228 × BH-160) showed maximum value regarding lint percentage, fibre length, seed volume and seed surface area, it also proved to be the best for seed density when combined with NIAB-228. The highest value of mid and better parent heterosis regarding number of bolls per plant (43.60% and 25.52%), seed cotton yield per plant (61.41% and 30.67%) and seed number per boll (17.28% and 16.14%) was observed for the hybrid BH-89 × CIM-496. Correlation studies revealed that bolls per plant were positively associated with seed cotton yield. Average boll weight showed significant positive correlation fibre strength and seed cotton yield. In the second cross, number of bolls per plant showed positive correlation with boll weight, fibre strength and seed cotton yield. Number of seeds per boll was positively associated with lint percentage, fibre length and seed cotton yield. Fibre length and fibre fineness were negatively correlated. Fibre length showed positive association with seed cotton yield.

18. Al-Kahf/The Cavern

I/We begin by the Blessed Name of Allah

The Immensely Merciful to all, The Infinitely Compassionate to everyone.

18:01.
All Praise and Gratitude is to Allah - The One and Only God of everyone,
WHO has sent down The Divine Book to HIS Servant Muhammad.
And HE has not made any deviousness in it - straight and upright in terms of the perfection of its words, text, and meanings.

18:02
HE has made it a straightforward Book -
meant to warn people of severe punishment from HIM in case of their continued disbelief,
and to give the good news to the believers who practice righteousness -
that for them will be a beautiful reward – Paradise,

18:03
a. Paradise - wherein they will live forever – never to leave, never to die.

18:04
Furthermore, it is meant to warn those who allege:
‘Allah has taken to HIMSELF a son.’

18:05
They have no knowledge about it, nor had their forefathers.
It is really a monstrous assertion of blasphemy that is coming out of their mouths!
They utter nothing but an absolute falsehood against Allah.

18:06
O The Prophet!
You are aggrieved by the hostility aroused by the Divine Message among the polytheists.
Then perhaps you are going to destroy yourself with grief and anguish for their sake
if they are not believing in this Proclamation - The Qur’an.

18:07
This is a reality that WE have made all that is in the terrestrial world,
- a splendor and beauty for it so that WE may test people to see which of them is better in terms of...

Work-family conflict and fear of COVID-19 and its relationship with the physical and mental health of Pakistani working women

Work-family conflict is a conflict between societal expectations and the interaction of interrelated work and family domains. It is essential to understand the impact of COVID-19 on working women's physical and mental health in Pakistan to advise better health policy. This research aims to determine work-family conflict’s impact on working women’s physical and mental health. Through non-probability sampling, 100 working women were sampled online across different cities of Pakistan. The participants were selected from different working fields. Only women above the age of 20 years were eligible for participation in this study. The study found that work-family conflict positively correlates with the fear of COVID19, blood pressure, depression, and anxiety symptoms. Psychologists, counselors, and general physicians for primary and preventive care in Pakistan need to work towards counselling and supporting the health needs of working women to prevent biopsychosocial problems related to work-family conflict and fear of COVID-19. Keywords: anxiety, blood pressure, depression, fear of covid-19, work-family conflict.

علم علل الحدیث: برصغیر کے محدثین و فقہاء کی تحقیقات

‘Ilal al ḥadīth or T’alīl-e ḥadīth is most important and critical sciences of hadith, especially for the judgment of the chain of hadith and its text. It also provides principality foundations to make impracticable hadith. It is said that T’alīl-e ḥadīth is knowledge of deciding any hadith for being it practicable or impracticable. So, in medieval, all researches about this science in a specific method are a major subject of this study. In this case, the scholars of the sub-continent and their research regarding T’alīl-e ḥadīth is analyzed by discussing their approaches and affinities subtended to ancient scholars and Moḥaddīthīns, so that we may be able to acknowledge the foundation laid by them in sectarianism with the passage of time and its impact on the history of hadīth & Islamic jurisprudence. T’alīl e ḥadīth is the subjective knowledge of hidden defects regarding hadith especially the chain of narrators. These hidden defects are called ‘illat in Arabic and prophetic sayings in etymology. There are two necessary characteristics in ‘illat; first, it must be hidden and second, it must be dubious. If one of these conditions is not found, the hadith will be stable for practice. This topic provided a good source to the way to acknowledge the services and research of famous scholars of the sub-continent i.e. Moḥaddīthīns and jurists. In this regard, the research question was: is there any contribution of these scholars of sub-continent in the science of ’Ilal e ḥadīth? And what is their addition to this knowledge among the ancient researches of Muslim Scholars? The researcher finds that in the sub-continent, only twelve books were found in which discourses of T’alīl e ḥadīth were discussed. Some of them are reference books, some are edited and only one manuscript is about the explanation of ancient scholar imam Tirmdhī’s book. And the second aspect of this science is found in books of principles of ḥadīth written by scholars in the sub-continent but too much less quantity.
