The Purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between stock returns and exchange rates while interest rate and inflation used as control variables in SAARC economies; namely India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bhutan, Maldives, Afghanistan. Panel unit root applied to check the stationary between exchange rate and stock return ADF technique has been applied for this purpose and Error Correction Model used to check the short run relationship between exchange rate and stock return while panel ARDL applied to check the long run relationship between exchange rate and stock return and among all other variables. Unit root results indicated that exchange rate and inflation on level while interest rate and stock return on 1st difference and VECM results indicated that short relationship exist among all dependent and independent variables. Results of Panel ARDL showed that interest rate and inflation have significant long run relationship while exchange rate have insignificant long run relationship with stock return. The descriptive statistics performed for temporal properties of data and showed that the data not normally distributed. The findings of fixed effect models showed that all the three macroeconomic variables like exchange rate, interest rate and CPI have significantly positive impact on the SAARC stock markets. While the implication is that the local and foreign investors should to thoughtfully judge the macroeconomic forces to make rational investment decisions and the government and the policy maker should keep in mind the effect of these macroeconomic variables during a monetary policy structure process and also useful to determine either by these three macroeconomic variables the risk is diversified in these SAARC stock markets. The similar research can be repeated by adding new variables and by changing the nature of study into exploratory research.

بے خبر تھا آگہی کا ہر دریچہ مجھ پہ وا تم نے کیا

بے خبر تھا آگہی کا ہر دریچہ مجھ پہ وا تم نے کیا
میں اندھیرے میں کھڑا تھا روشنی سے آشنا تم نے کیا

ہر صدائے نرم و شیریں دب گئی تھی اک خروشِ جبر میں
چیختے چنگھاڑتے اِس ظلم کو پھربے صدا تم نے کیا

آنکھ تھی پر سب مناظر، سب مظاہر اُس کی قدرت میں نہ تھے
نوعِ انساں کی نظر کو پُر بصیرت ،پُرضیا تم نے کیا

خانۂ دل پر تسلط تھا جہالت کی اندھیری رات کا
آفتاب ِ معرفت سے پھر اُجالا صبح کا تم نے کیا

ہر بشر کی ہر نوا میں ، ہر نفس میں بھر گئی تھی آگ سی
جلتے صحرا کی ہوائے آتشیں کو پھر صبا تم نے کیا

اے مرے قرآنِ ناطقؐ! حرف سارے ہو گئے تھے بے ثمر
پھر بیاں کی خشک اور بے جان کھیتی کو ہرا تم نے کیا

أفكار أرنولد توينبي عن الحضارة الإسلامية ومدى تأثره برؤية ابن خلدون: دراسة وصفية و تحليلية

Ibn e Khaldun (1406 C.E.) has been an imminent scholar and well known for his work in the study of civilization. His vision regarding Civilization holds the significant place according to the philosophers of history. Arnold J. Toynbee (1975 C.E.) is one such prominent thinker who not only applauded the thoughts of Ibn e Khaldun but was influenced by Ibn e Khaldun’s views as it can be seen in Toynbee’s book: “A Study of History”. As a philosopher of history, he has much contribution in the field; He interlinks History with civilization. He presented a thoughtful book surrounding his civilizational vision; which explains the causes of world’s ups and downs. Although he presented a quality research about the division of the civilizations in the light of religion, many aspects of his work need to be reassessed. As per his understanding of world civilizations, he represents twenty-one civilizations, but with the passage of time, the number reduces and now only five are left in the contemporary epoch. According to him, religion has played significant role in the rise and fall of civilizations through their various stages. This research will highlight his thought about Islam through a comparison between Toynbee and Ibn e Khaldun’s Islamic civilizational thoughts. The study will also mention several problems in his approach to the Islamic Civilization. Furthermore, along with due importance of both scholars in the subject of history, their authoritative status will be stated. This research aims to discuss some misconceptions of the West that are based on Toynbee's understating of Islamic civilization and history. And, consequently, it intends to improve relations between people of the west and east.

Modified Burr Iii G Family of Distributions: Properties and Applications

We introduce a new three-parameter Modified Burr III G family of distributions. The proposed family is an extended and generalized family, of which some existing and new submodels are its limiting cases. The flexibility of the proposed family is fairly evident in the various shapes its density function accommodates. It can be symmetrical, left-skewed, right-skewed, bathtub, J or reversed-J. Its hazard rate can be increasing or decreasing, bathtub, upside-down bathtub, J and reversed-J, making it a suitable candidate for model fitting in biomedical, engineering, lifetime and survival studies. We have derived some of its structural properties and estimated its parameters using Maximum Likelihood Method. Taking Burr Type XII as a parent distribution we have studied its mathematical properties. A simulation study highlights the performance of the Maximum Likelihood Estimates. Two applications from life testing datasets elaborates its usefulness in model fitting.
