کاکا محمد اسمٰعیل مرحوم مدراسی
( مولوی ثناء اﷲ)
کاکا اسمٰعیل صاحب مرحوم قوم ملت کی ان شخصیتوں میں تھے، جنھوں نے لاکھوں روپیہ کمایا اور لاکھوں قوم و ملت کی راہ میں صرف کیا، ہندوستان کے بہت سے مذہبی و قومی ادارے ان کی فیاضی سے سیراب ہوئے تھے، ایسے محسن قوم کے حالات سے دوسرے ارباب ثروت سبق حاصل کرسکتے ہیں۔ (شاہ معین الدین ندوی)
علاقہ مدراس ضلع نارتھ آرکاٹ کا تاریخی مقام گڑھ آمبور کاکا محمد اسمٰعیل صاحب کا وطن تھا، آپ کے والد کاکا حاجی محمد عمر صاحب ایک دیندار بزرگ، دولتمند تاجر علماء کے عقیدت مند، فیاض اور غریب پرور تھے، دینی اور اصلاحی کاموں میں پیش پیش رہتے تھے، مدراس کی روشن کمپنی جو علم نوازی میں مشہور تھی اور اب بند ہوگئی آپ اس کے ایک رکن تھے، گڑھ آمبور سے متصل اپنے نام کی مناسبت سے عمرآباد نامی ایک گاؤں آباد کیا اور وہیں ایک اعلیٰ دینی درسگاہ و مدرسہ دارالسلام کے نام سے ۱۹۲۴ء میں قائم کی چند ہی سال بعد دسمبر ۱۹۲۷ء میں آپ کا انتقال ہوگیا، آپ کے بعد آپ کے فرزند اکبر کاکا محمد اسمٰعیل صاحب نے جملہ کاروبار کو نہایت خوبی سے سنبھالا، والد مرحوم کی جملہ خوبیوں کے علاوہ آپ میں اور بھی بہت سے کمالات تھے، علمی اور دینی خدمت کے جذبہ سے سرشار تھے، دولت کا بیشتر حصہ ملی و قومی کاموں میں خرچ کرتے تھے، صاحب دل مخلص، موحد اور متبع سنت تھے، متعدد علمی ادارے بذات خود چلارہے تھے، حسب ذیل ادارے آپ کی یادگار ہیں:
۱۔ جامعہ داراسلام عمر آباد: یہ ایک اعلیٰ دینی درس گاہ ہے جس طلباء کی تعداد سوسے متجاوز ہے، اس میں رہائش، خوراک اور درسی کتابوں کا انتظام بغیر کسی فیس کے مدرسہ کی طرف سے ہوتا ہے، اساتذہ کی تعداد گیارہ بارہ...
Semantic (علم المعاني) is the most interesting branch of Rhetoric. Al-Zamakhsharī has discussed its categories in his introduction to “Al- Kashshᾱf”. He has elaborated the terminology of Semantics but he did not arrange it separately in chapters and did not apply this division in Al- Kashshᾱf as well. The Great Scholar of Rhetoric Al-Sakkᾱkī has categorized semantics in the form of three terminologies: the Knowledge of Semantic, (علم المعاني) the Knowledge of Eloquence, (علم البيان) the figures of speech (علم البديع). Al-Zamakhsharī was very influenced by The Great Scholar and Literary Theorist Abd-ul-Qᾱhir Al-Jurjᾱnī since he implemented whatever Abd-ul-Qᾱhir Al-Jurjᾱnī pointed out in his book “Arguments of Miracles” and “Mysteries of Rhetoric” whilst analyzing Qur’ᾱnic Verses in his exegesis “Al-Kashshᾱf” on Rhetorical basis, though he mentioned in his exegesis all foremost and supreme aspects of Rhetoric which were not referred to by any former scholars. In this article I have widely discussed the unique and distinguished rhetorical topics, highlighted by Al-Zamakhsharī in his exegesis Al-Kashshᾱf, for instance; he semantically analyzed letters and verbs in the Holy Qur’ᾱn, particularly propositional and non-propositional verbs. At the end of this article I tried my best to conclude the topic with better sequences.
Fresh produce linked foodborne outbreaks have become a global concern. Nutritional value of vegetables and high prices of meat and meat originated food compel common people for consumption of plant originated food particularly salad vegetables. Microbial population of vegetable surfaces contains large number of pathogenic bacteria including members of Enterobactereace. Most promising pathogen among enteric microbes is Escherichia coli (E.coli) that is normally a nonpathogenic bacteria and becomes virulent due to several pathogenic factors like toxin production. Shigalike toxins are chief disease causing molecular structures produced by Shigalike toxin producing strains of E.coli possessing genes for shigalike toxin I and shigalike toxin II. It was intended to assess and manage the risk associated with these potential pathogens. This research was an effort to reduce faecal contamination of salad vegetables consumed in Pakistan and to provide clean nutritious food to public. A survey was conducted in three markets of Islamabad, Rawalpindi and Lahore and tomato, lettuce, cabbage and cucumber were collected from three shops of each market. Each vegetable was analysed as unwashed and washed for aeobic plate count (APC), total coliforms, faecal coliforms and E.coli. About two hundred and fifty E. coli isolates were preserved, serotyped and studied for presence of shigalike toxin genes. Results indicated a high APC on all vegetable samples. Total coliforms, faecal coliforms and E.coli count exceeded the permissible limits in most samples. Highest APC was associated with lettuce (6.6 log 10 cfu/g). Tomato was least contaminated by APC (5.6 log 10 cfu/g). E.coli was detected in tomato, lettuce, cucumber and cabbage. Washed samples showed significantly reduced bacterial population. Two hundred and fifty isolates of E.coli were biochemically characterized and serotyped for O and H antigens. Majority of strains could not be identified by serotyping. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) results indicated presence of shigalike toxins in 55 E.coli isolates. Raw garlic proved to be most promising antibacterial spice extract with maximum zone of inhibition (29mm) and lowest MIC (3mg/ml). Ginger, cinnamon, mustard also indicated considerable antibacterial activity. Extracts xiprepared by using methanol, acetone and water as solvents showed variable antimicrobial efficiency. Solvent extraction reduced efficacy of extracts as compared to crude extracts. Acetic acid, citric acid and common salt also lowered growth of E.coli strains. A treatment solution of pH=2.7, consisting of 5 ml of raw extracts of garlic, ginger, mustard, cinnamon, 5 ml of 2% acetic acid, 2% citric acid and 1.5% common salt was prepared and directly applied on salad vegetables. This composite treatment solution significantly reduced APC and completely eliminated total coliforms, faecal coliforms and E.coli. These findings conclude with high potentially pathogenic microbial load on salad vegetables and urge for preventive action on priority basis. Raw spice extracts alongwith non toxic chemicals provide an excellent source for pathogens elimination from fresh produce.
