The graphene study has become the most interested topic owing to its exceptional properties. Graphene brings dramatic changes in the possessions of composites, when it is used even at very low concentration. Though, the heterogeneous distribution of graphene in the matrix is its main drawback to be used as filler in the polymer composites. The strong intermolecular forces of graphene result in agglomeration of graphene in the host the polymer matrix. The surface of graphene is functionalized by different functional groups to reduce the π-π stacking to prevent the agglomeration of graphene. The main objective of this work was to develop an easy method for synthesizing the graphenebased polymer nanocomposites. To get the graphene-based nanocomposites, first graphene was exfoliated by using liquid-phase exfoliation in different organic solvents. Picric acid was also used as a surfactant. The addition of picric acid has doubled the concentration in most of solvents tested. Moreover, graphene oxide was produced by using Hummers’ methods, modified Hummers’ method and Brodie method. The results indicate that modified Hummers’ method is the best one among the three methods. In next step polyaniline was grafted on few layer graphene (FLG), and polyaniline grafted fewlayer graphene (PANI-g-FLG) samples were then blended with polyetherimide. The addition of PANI-g-FLG introduced the conductive behavior in the insulative polymer. The maximum dielectric constant (3.72 × 105) and AC conductivity (5.91 × 10−2 S⋅cm−1) were achieved at 1.5 wt.% of the FLG concentration. Moreover, polyaniline grafted few layer graphene was also added in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) by solution blending method. The tensile strength was enhanced 62 % for the composites as compared to pure PVA. The dielectric constant was enhanced from 3.29 of pure PVA to 5.14 × 1004 (at 1000Hz) for nanocomposites having 0.5 wt.% FLG loading. Similarly, AC conductivity increased from 9.05 × 10−9 for pure PVA to 2.17 × 10−2 S⋅cm−1 (at 1000Hz) for composites having 0.5 wt.% FLG loading. The PANI-g-FLG was also combined with polystyrene to prepare nanocomposites with varying concentration of FLG (0 to 2 wt.%). The tensile strength was doubled for the composites as compared to pure polystyrene. The graphene oxide produced by modified Hummers’ method was further functionalized and incorporated into the diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A to prepare nanocomposites. The concentration of PANI-g-GO were varied from 0 to 2.5 wt.% in the nanocomposites. The tensile strength was enhanced 60% for the composites as compared to pure diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A. The dielectric constant was improved from 1 to 8 and AC conductivity increased from 1.05 × 10−8 S⋅cm−1 for pure to 6.15 × 10−8 S⋅cm−1 (at 1000Hz) for composites having 2.5 wt.% FLG loading. These results provide a possibility of using flexible nanocomposites as a dielectric material to be applied for energy storage devices such as embedded capacitors.

ہم سے درویش کوئی مال نہ زر رکھتے ہیں

ہم سے درویش کوئی مال نہ زر رکھتے ہیں
کوئی دیوار نہ در اور نہ گھر رکھتے ہیں

یہ بھی سچ ہے کہ نہ ہم بال، نہ پر رکھتے ہیں
جاری ہم پھر بھی وفائوں کا سفر رکھتے ہیں

رکھتے بے تاب ہیں دل، آنکھ کو تر رکھتے ہیں
مرے حالات مجھے زیر و زبر رکھتے ہیں

چاکِ دامان لیے خاک بسر رہتے ہیں
تیرے دیوانے کہاں اپنی خبر رکھتے ہیں

اُن کے تُو میرے خدا! خیر سے سینے بھر دے
میرے احباب کہ جو سینوں میں شر رکھتے ہیں

روٹھنے والے بھلا بیٹھے ہیں تائب ؔہم کو
روٹھنے والوں کو ہم یاد مگر رکھتے ہیں

تحریف قرآن پر عقلی و نقلی دلائل کا تنقیدی جائزہ

The ECE teaching in pre-primary schools is enhanced by the Government in primary schools the student must be 3-8 years’ classes of Pakistan. This subject is a source of learning to know the things as well as to familiar with the school environments and connected to schools same time will be a responsible citizen, so the mosques are playing very important role in teaching of little kids from beginning of Islam to till date. It is more successfully working in our mosques and provide basic education for learner, so in this study found out the effectiveness of mosques for ECE pre-primary education SBA, Sindh  Pakistan for this study sample was selected from the school teachers which were consist on 100 hundred  and five like rate scale questioners were distributed among them to know the effectiveness of mosques for ECE education according the finding most the respondent were agreed that the mosques will be the suitable place for little kids learning place because mostly every  colony, muhalla, village, street had a mosque and almost one or two rooms are also connected to mosques only few mosques where this facility is not avail able otherwise mostly these mosques  is also  a big class room if it is used carefully so this all was effective conclusion for the effectiveness of ECE     as well as for the learners learning point of view. So it is also recommended for Government as well as policy makers to revisit polices of teaching ECE classes and their effectiveness in regards to mosques where all facilities have been already present must be included in streamline of Pakistan

الصور البدیعیہ فی القران الکریم

It is a matter of fact that the Holy Quran is characterized by rhetoric and eloquence. This rhetoric and eloquence appear in the Quranic invocations. So I have adopted the stylistic and rhetorical aspects of the Quranic invocations as a subject matter of my PhD thesis. I shall try to focus on these aspects keeping in view the one important aspect (Elm Ul Badee) of rhetoric. Thesis is based on six chapters: First Chapter: Elm Ul Badee, it is further divide into three sub-chapters. Second Chapter: The Stylistic pictures in Holy Quran. It will consist of three sub chapters. Third Chapter: Assonance in Holy Quran. It will consist of four chapters. Fourth Chapter: Other Verbal Embellishments in Holy Quran. It will consist of four sub chapters. Fifth Chapter: Antithesis and Opposing in Holy Quran. This chapter is further divided into five more sub chapters. Sixth Chapter: Syntagmatic Embellishments in Holy Quran. This chapter is consisting of four sub chapters.
