جدید قانونی تصورات پر مذہب اور اخلاق کا اثر: مغربی اور اسلامی تناظر میں ایک تقابلی و تنقیدی جائزہ

Authority is the centerpiece of the law as well as legal system. It cannot be properly understood without adequate understanding of the structure of authority that underlies it. The role of moral and religious values in the law has been a vital issue in classical as well as contemporary legal philosophy. Discussion about the theoretical foundation of the law remains a key issue in the modern legal thinking as a legal system is considered to have emerged from cultural contexts. Western legal systems are broadly grounded in to the Judo-Christian and Greco-Roman cultures. Though a fundamental change took place in the Western Europe as cultural traditions which affected the very nature of law both as a political institution and as an intellectual concept. The creation of modern legal systems was, in the first instance, a response to revolutionary change within the church and its relation with the secular authority. It led to bifurcation of social morality and religion in the modern law. Now most of the modern theories are based on this concept. The present paper presents a study of the origins of the Islamic law as well as the contemporary western legal thought in connection with religion and ethics. The conflict about moral and religious values reflects their code of life and concept of religions. In Islamic law authority-which is at once religious and moral is the will of the creator which is basic source of Islamic law, However, Fuqahᾱ differentiate between legal and moral values

Biomineralization of Black Shale Using Indeginous Microbes

The main concern of the present research work was to find a more feasible and economical method to extract metal ions from low grade discarded ores like black shale by Aspergillus niger and Penicillium notatum. Major elements present on the exposed surface of black shale identified by EDX study were iron, silicon, aluminum, copper and oxygen. Black shale ore mainly contained aluminosilicate minerals such as illite, kaolinite and muscovite and sulphide minerals were pyrite, pyrhotite, Ni-sulphide, sphelrite and chalcopyrite. Oxide minerals like quartz, aluminum oxide, wollastonite and dolomite were also detected by XRD. Raw sample mainly composed of (mgL -1 ) Al 8799.00, Fe 3761.00, Cu 39.07, Co 18.26, Zn 31.88 and Ni 8.25. Different agricultural wastes in the presence of sulphuric acid as substrates were evaluated in organic acid production in shaking flasks with and without ultrasonic treatment. Comparatively, A. niger exhibited a good potential in generating varieties of organic acids effective for metal ions solubilization in case of samples treated ultrasonically. Maximum recovery of metals was achieved in samples treated ultrasonically in both cases of microbes. In case of A. niger, maximum solubilization of aluminum (93.12 %), iron (90.12 %) and zinc (89.41 %) was achieved in the optimized medium of molasses containing 5 % level of ore treated ultrasonically whereas copper (94.03 %) was extracted in sample containing optimized mango peel at 5 % level of ore density. Cobalt recovery (93.32 %) was found in medium having 8 % level of seed cake treated ultrasonically whereas in case of P. notatum, maximum recovery of aluminum (69.23 %) was achieved in optimized seed cake media at 3 % level of ore density. Iron (72.35 %) was recovered in media having 8 % level of mango peel. Copper (68.88 %) and Cobalt (86.42 %) recovery was detected in optimized molasses at 5 and 4% ore density respectively whereas zinc (78.70 %) was extracted maximum in medium having optimized mango peel at 5 % level of ore density. Overall, A. niger showed better potential to extract metals from ore compared to P. notatum. Ultrasonic wave treatment not only increases the growth of microbes and organic acid production but metal ions dissolution from the ore matrices indicated that this low grade discarded ore may be the potential source for metals in future panorama.
