یوں مہرباں ہوا ہے مہینہ رسولؐ کا
دل بن گیا ہے پھر سے مدینہ رسولؐ کا
خاکِ مدینہ پائی تو خوشبو خجل ہوئی
شامل ہے اِس میں پاک پسینہ رسولؐ کا
فدیہ ہو علم کا کہ مواخات کا عمل
تاریخ دیکھتی تھی قرینہ رسولؐ کا
قربان ہم تو دونوں کی آب و ہوا پہ ہیں
مکّہ خدا کا اور مدینہ رسولؐ کا
طوفان میں گھرا ہوں پہ مدحت زباں پہ ہے
یہ نعت بھی ہے ایک سفینہ رسولؐ کا
The present study focuses on the power embedded in the use of language in print media which, though without logic, is still powerful. For this purpose, some advertisements from the print media are selected and analysed through three Aristotelian fallacies namely fallacy of authority, the fallacy of majority and appeal to authority along with three strategies of logos, pathos, and ethos as given by Aristotle. The analysis of data shows that language has a power of its own which is not always logical but people make use of such power to become influential. Fallacies and the strategies behind the use of language act as tools to practice this kind of power. In the selected advertisement discourse, these fallacies and strategies are used to convince people and market the products, often by erroneous arguments. Encouraging positive trends in the rate of literacy, prevailing scientific approach and introducing the subject of ‘logic’ right from the school can counter such fallacies in the language. The teaching of logic and rhetoric can encourage students to question and reason the arguments presented to them in everyday text and talk. The inclusion of such subjects can be empowering for the students to counter the illogicality and falsehood in the use of language so they cannot be subjugated by fallacies in the language.
Study of the Nuclear Transparency Effect at 4.2 A GeV/c The use of nuclear transparency effect of protons, p + - and p - - mesons in proton, and deuteron induced interactions with carbon at 4.2 A GeV/c, to get information about properties of nuclear matter is reported in this work. Half angle (θ 1/2 ) technique is used to extract the nuclear transparency effect. The θ 1/2 divides the multiplicity of charged particles produced in nucleon-nucleon collisions into two equal parts depending on their polar angle in the lab. frame. Particles with angle smaller than (incone particles) and greater than (outcone particles) θ 1/2 are considered separate. The average values of multiplicity, momentum and transverse momentum of the protons p + - and p - - mesons are analyzed as a function of a number of identified protons in an event. We observed evidences in the data which could be considered as transparency effect. For quantitative analysis, the results are compared with cascade model. The observed effects are categorized into leading effect transparency and medium effect transparency. Analysis of the results shows that the leading effect is the basis of the observed transparency in the former case. The transparency in the latter case could be the reason of collective interactions of grouped nucleons with the incident particles.
