اسوہ  حسنہ اورمغربی ذہن کے اشکالات.استشراقی فکرکے تناظرمیں تحقیقی و تنقیدی جائزہ

Western mind always remains muddled to fathom the Islamic belief “Prophethood” but it is grand reality that the West has contributed a lot in “Sirah Writing” from 17th to the present age. Although, in primary literature, Western scholars have delineated their abhorrence in this regard, without any research analysis. They usually used to twist the facts and misinterpret the text in attempt to sustain their assumption under their own perception. In the present age, literary change is seen in Western Writings that scholars have admired categorically the demonstrative Personality of Mohammad (PBUH) as well as they have praised his attributes as authoritative leader, Reformer, Peace maker etc. It will discuss the changes which were seen in Western writings about Sirah and analysis the causes and facts accordingly. It will also throw light on the Western assumption about Prophet Muhammad (PBUH); which has been prevailed in their writings before 19th even changed now. Islam is religion of Peace and Prophet of Islam has sent as” Blessing for All the Universe” from God Almighty so the question is what are the motives to bring forward theses western suppositions in this regard and at what extent it will affect? It will be discussed through comparative analysis among the Sirah books by Western Scholars Maxim Rodinson, Karen Armstrong and Michael Cook.

Linking Personal Bullying With Nursing Staff Turnover Intentions: A Mixed Methods Study of Public Sector Hospitals in Pakistan.

The most important objective of the present research study was to test the relationship between personal bullying (PB) incidents and nursing staff turnover intentions (TI) in the major public sector hospitals of Pakistan. In addition, the role of job stress (JS) as mediating and political skill (PS) as moderating variable were also assessed in the present study. In present study, we used explanatory sequential mixed methods research design. Explanatory sequential research has two phases, quantitative followed by qualitative. In Phase 1, data was collected from 324 nurses through questionnaire and model was tested using Partial Least Squares (PLS). In phase 2, for qualitative part, 11 nurses were interviewed so that they can explain results in more detail. Results from the quantitative survey and qualitative part showed that there is a significant positive association between personal bullying and nursing staff turnover intentions and the link between personal bullying and turnover intentions was partially mediated by job stress. Furthermore, political skill (PS) weakens the relationship between personal bullying (PB) and job stress (JS). The most important limitations of the present study were the sample used, which was from six public sector hospitals of Islamabad/Rawalpindi area. The present study is the first to use a sequential explanatory mixed methods design to assess the mediating role of job stress (JS) as well as to examine the moderating effect of political skill between personal bullying and job stress linkage.
