This study was conducted with the aim to derive an expression for variance of the maximum likelihood estimators of the hidden Markov model having multipartite graph structure transition. To obtain the estimates of variance, observed information matrix was derived using the Louise (1982) method. This study derived information matrix for the m1 and m2 partition of states which were observed at time 2t ? 1 and 2t respectively. Also, in this study, lower bound for variance of maximum likelihood estimates was derived. The study also defines a parametric bootstrap procedure for computation of variance. To check the validity of derived matrix for maximum likelihood estimates, a numerical example was used to estimate the variance using derived information matrix and compared with the results of parametric bootstrap. For this purpose, a real world data, named, as ”faithful” considered, which is freely available in statistical software R. The data-set have 272 observations on each of two variables i.e. eruption time te and waiting time tw, both measured in minutes. In this study, variable te was considered in one partition of states, which observed at time 2t?1 and variable tw was considered in second partition of states, which observed at time 2t. The study compared estimated variances by observed matrix and parametric bootstrap procedure for different combination of states and sample sizes. The comparison showed a smaller variation in values of maximum likelihood estimates obtained from observed matrix than by bootstrap procedure. In combination of states, both approaches showed almost similar variances. The overall comparison indicates that estimated variance of maximum likelihood estimators by observed matrix seems meaningful i.e. explaining less variation than that obtained from the bootstrap procedure. To study the empirical performance of the derived observed matrix for variance of maximum likelihood estimators, an extensive simulation study of various sample size was conducted. Simulated data were generated for different sizes and variance was calculated by observed matrix.

کرنول علاقہ مدراس کیا ایک عالم دین کی وفات
احا طہ مدراس کا وہ خطہ جس کو اب اندھرا کہنے لگے ہیں، اور جو مدراس اور حیدرآباد دکن کے بیچ میں واقع ہے وہ بھی کبھی اسلام کی قوت کا مرکز تھا، اس میں کرنول نام مشہور مقام ہے، جہاں پہلے ایک نوابی قائم تھی، وہ مٹ چکی ہے، اور اس کا یادگار خاندان حیدرآباد دکن منتقل ہوگیا ہے، وہاں کی اسلامی طاقت کے زوال سے وہاں کے مسلمانوں کی علمی و دینی کیفیت بھی زوال کے قریب پہنچ چکی تھی، کہ اﷲ تعالیٰ نے اپنے دین کی حفاظت کے لیے اپنے ایک بندہ کو مامور فرمایا، ان کا نام مولانا حاجی محمد عمر صاحب تھا، ان کے علم و فضل اور نیکی و تقوی کے سبب سے حاکم و محکوم دونوں طبقوں میں ان کو ہردل عزیزی حاصل تھی، حکومت نے شمس العلماء کے لقب سے ملقب کیا تھا، اور عام مسلمانوں نے بھی ان کی دینی قیادت اور رہبری کو قبول کیا، موصوف نے اسی ۸۰ برس کی عمر پائی، اور یہ پوری عمر علوم دینی کی تعلیم و تدریس میں بسر کرکے گذشتہ ۲۰؍ جولائی ۱۹۴۶؁ء کو وفات پائی، ان کی وفات سے اس علاقہ میں علوم قدیمہ کا خاتمہ ہوگیا، مرحوم مولانا احمد حسن صاحب کان پوریؒ کے ارشد تلامذہ میں تھے، اور جس جلسہ میں نددہ کی ابتداکی تحریک کی گئی اسی میں ان کی دستار بندی ہوئی تھی، ۱۳۱۱؁ھ میں کان پور سے فارغ ہوکر واپسی کے بعد کرنول میں قیام کیا، اور آخر تک وہیں قیام پذیر رہے، وہاں ایک چھوٹے سے مدرسہ کا انتظام جس کی ماہوار آمد نی پندرہ بیس روپیہ سے زیادہ نہ تھی، ا پنے ہاتھ میں لیا، اﷲ تعالیٰ نے ان کے کام میں برکت دی مرحوم کے مساعی کی بدولت...

اسلام کا تصور تعلیم و تربیت

Education has been considered of primary importance in human life. Religion and education are interrelated. A civilized society requires educational revolution in behavior of human beings. Education creates awareness about the human goals and real aim of life. This activity makes it possible to train the people in the right direction. Better education coupled with proper training makes a human being well-mannered and enables him to use his hidden qualities for the benefit of mankind, thus making him a beneficial not only for himself but also for the society. The preaching of religion depends upon the education and training. Our holy Prophet ﷺ was an ideal educationist not only of his time but also for the future generations. The Holy Prophet ﷺ being a great educationist and reformer initiated the University of Suffa in Medina when the Islamic society was in its infancy. Prophet ﷺ described the conditions, pattern and qualities of a teacher. A good teacher must be interpreted as good practitioner as well. The article deals with the moral qualities of a teacher and educationist in the light of teachings of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. The discussion has made clear the aim of Islamic education which is not limited within the domain of worship or prayers. Islam is a complete code of life which emphasizes the training of human being through education.

Exploring Leadership Challenges in a Primary School for Under-Privileged Working Children in Karachi

Primary education, a basic human right, is universally recognized as being among the most critical life chances due to its functional importance. The situation of the country's basic or primary level education, as reflected in high levels of illiteracy and innumeracy, is a matter of great concern. In relation to it, Pakistan has not been able to actualize the much desired targets concerning an increase in primary level enrollment and decrease in drop out rates. Consequently, it is imperative to examine the alternatives to public education through the civil society; the ability of Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to bring about social transformation through grass root mobilization is undoubted. Certainly, many NGOs in the past and present contributed to work as a helping hand to the government in this noble cause. This study was also carried out in one of the schools of an NGO which particularly caters to a category of under-privileged working children. The study discloses that while working for a noble cause, the school leadership faces a number of administrative, academic and resource challenges during its move. However, at the same time, it strategizes its activities in such a way that the challenges are resolved to a great extent. The study also offers some recommendations to the school, the senior management and the school leadership who actually look after the day to day activities of the school. This report also includes the lessons learned from the study. The findings would be not only beneficial for the researcher, but for the educational world which has to give a major contribution to assist these under-privileged working children through researches in other related areas.
