شہادتوں کے علم
شہادتوں کے علم جب بلند ہو جائیں
تو پھر جہان میں رسوا یزید ہوتے ہیں
عظیم باپ کی بیٹی بتا گئی شوکت
حسینؑ والے ہمیشہ شہید ہوتے ہیں
وطن کے ہر غریب کو جگا کے آپ سو گئی
شعور جب طلوع ہوا تو خود غروب ہو گئی
غریب قوم کے لیے وہ باپ کی سفیر تھی
نظیر جس کی نہ ملے وہ اتنی بے نظیر تھی
وفاق کی امنگ تھی عوام ہی کے سنگ تھی
کنیز کربلا کی بس یزیدیت سے جنگ تھی
بہا کے لے گئی ہر ستم کو اپنی موج سے
وہ کربلائے وقت میں ڈری نہیں ہے فوج سے
وہ آمروںکی گردنوں پہ نقش پا جما گئی
وہ بھٹو بھٹو کر کے سب کو بھٹو ہی بنا گئی
سنو لحد کی گود میں وہ صاحب مراد ہے
وہ کل بھی زندہ باد تھی وہ اب بھی زندہ باد ہے
سلام شہید رانی
Women’s rights and freedom is one of the most debated subjects and the flash point of contemporary world. Women maintain a significant place in the society catered to them not only by the modern world but also by religion. Yet, the clash between Islamic and western civilization is that they have defined different set of duties for them. Islam considers women an important participatory member of the society by assigning them inclusive role, specifying certain fields of work to them, given the vulnerability they might fall victim to. Contrarily, Western world allows women to opt any profession of their choice regardless of tangible threats they may encounter. Apparently, the modern approach seems more attractive and favorable, but actually this is not plausible from Islamic point of view. Intermingling, co-gathering and sexual attraction of male and female are creating serious difficulties and problems for both genders, especially for women. Women are currently running many movements for their security, rights and liberties under the umbrella of “Feminism”. Due to excess of freedom and lack of responsibility, a radical movement came into existence which was named as ‘Radical Feminism’. This feminist movement is affecting the unique status of women in the whole world, especially in the west. This study seeks to explore radical feminism and its major impact on socio-religious norms in addition to its critical analysis from an Islamic perspective. Analytical research methodology will be adopted in this study with qualitative cum quantitative approach. This study reveals that the radical feminism has some notorious impacts on ethical, social and religious norms of the society, with especial reference to Muslims. Thus, it is a dire need of time to encounter these impact and consequences in the light of legal and moral approaches.
We report detailed experimental studies on the spectra of barium using the two-step excitation scheme to measure the absolute photoionization cross section from excited states and the optical oscillator strengths of the Rydberg transitions. In addition, the line shapes of the autoionizing resonances have been studied using various channels approached by different intermediate levels and extensive new measurements of the highly excited even parity autoionizing resonances is presented. Furthermore, the proper line shape of the 6p2 1S0 autoionizing resonance has been reported experimentally for the first time. In the first set of experiments, the photoionization cross section from the 6s6p 1,3 P1 excited states have been measured in the energy region from the first ionization threshold up to 1.69 eV excess energy. The experiments have been performed using a thermionic diode ion detector in conjunction with a Nd: YAG laser system. The absolute values of the photoionization cross section from the 6s6p 1P1 and 3P1 excited states at the first ionization threshold have been determined as 90 ± 14 Mb and 102 ± 15 Mb respectively. The studies have been extended to determine the measurements of the oscillator strengths of the 6s6p 1P1 → 6snd 1D2 (20 ≤ n ≤ 76) and 6s6p 3P1 → 6snd 3D2 (20 ≤ n ≤ 63) Rydberg transitions. The measured absolute photoionization cross-sections from the 6s6p 1P1 and 6s6p 3P1 states have been used to calibrate the f-values of the Rydberg transitions. The oscillator strength densities in the continuum corresponding to the 6s6p 3P1 excited state have also been determined. In the next set of experiments, we have investigated how the line shape and width of an autoionizing resonance varies by choosing different excitation paths and a systematic line shape analysis of the 6p7p configuration based 1P1, 3D1 and 3P1 autoionizing resonances are presented. These even parity isolated autoionizing resonances have been accessed via four different intermediate states 6snp 1P1 (6 ≤ n ≤ 8) and 5d6p 1P1. A comparison of the Fano parameters of the resonance profiles reveals that the width of an autoionizing resonance remains constant while the line profile parameter changes with the selection of different intermediate states.
