(الف)اُردو نعت پاکستان میں: ایک جائزہ
شعبۂ نعت کا ہر گوشہ رسول کریم صلی اللہ علیہ و آلہٖ وسلم سے محبت اور عقیدت کے اظہار کا ذریعہ ہے۔ ڈاکٹر شہزاد احمد نے نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ و آلہٖ وسلم سے محبت کے اظہار کے لیے اپنے تحقیقی مقالے (نعتیہ شاعری کا تحقیقی جائزہ پاکستان کے خصوصی حوالے سے )یعنی ’’اُردو نعت پاکستان میں‘‘ کو وسیلہ بنایا ہے۔ یہ موصوف کا پی ایچ ڈی کا مقالہ ہے جس پر جامعہ کراچی نے ڈاکٹر یٹ کی سند سے نوازا ہے۔ یہ مقالہ موضوعات کی اہمیت اور معلومات کے استناد کی بدولت اُردو نعت شناسی کا ایک اہم سنگ میل ہے۔ کوئی محقق اس مقالے سے صرف نظر کرکے نعت کی حالیہ روایت سے کماحقہ آشنا نہیں ہو سکتا۔ اس مقالے کی تکمیل ۲۰۱۲ء میں ہوئی۔ حافظ عبدالغفار حافظ نے اس کی جو تاریخ نکالی ہے، وہ ملاحظہ ہو:

e Qasama Doctrine of Islamic Criminal Law
The mashroom-growth like blind murder cases, have, now a days confused
and perplexed the law-enforcing agencies the reason is that such
murder-cases are taken in hand and tried to be dealt with the common criminal
procedures The criminal in such a case leaving no clue thereto succeed in
detracting the police. As a result the FIR is lodged against an anonymous
'accused' afterwards and the case is filed because of the non-availability of
required proof. Contrary to the above Islam introduces the procedure cf
Qasama _ which literally means administring an oath which in juristic
terminology applied to a way and process where some persons are held
responsible in a blind murder for an oath in words, that; By Allah! Neither they
have committed the murder nor they noticed the culprit. In case of refusal they
are adjudicated for Qisasand for the payent of Diyat in vice versa.
Historically Qasama procedure is traced back to pre-lslamic tribal-law
which were then, afterwards modified and re-enforced by the Prophet (SAW)
and his Khulafa. With the exception of some minor juristic controversies
regarding the structure and framework of Qasama procedure multitude of
muslim jurists hold it a valid way for the adjudication of a blind-murder. It is
with all regrets that-lslamic Ideological council ( HC) despite its introduction .
