نیشنل بک ٹرسٹ انڈیا نے اس کتاب کی پشت پر علامہ اقبال کے حوالے سے مختصرا تعارف پیش کیا ہے ساتھ ہی پروفیسر عبد الحق کا تعارف بھی درج ہے۔ وہاں واضح طور پر لکھا ہے کہ اقبال نے ہندوستان کی فلاح و بہبود کے لیے بڑے پر سوز نغمے پیش کیے ہیں۔ اقبال زندگی کے کسی بھی دور میں ہندوستان کے معاملات سے بے نیاز نہ ہوئے۔ آپ نے مغرب کی غلامی سے نجات حاصل کرنے اور آپس میں اتحاد و اتفاق سے رہنے پر زور دیا۔ وطن کی عظمت کا احساس اور باہمی اتحاد ہی اقبال کی شاعری کا مرکز ہے۔
پروفیسر عبد الحق کے تعارف میں لکھا ہے کہ پروفیسر عبدالحق اردو کا ایک معتبر نام ہے۔ انہیں اقبال سے خاص دلچسپی ہے ۔ 1965ء میں "اقبالیات کا تنقیدی مطالعہ " کے موضوع پر ڈاکٹریٹ کی ڈگری حاصل کی ۔ اب تک اقبال سے متعلق ان کی بہت سی کتابیں شائع ہو چکی ہیں ۔ ان کی تقریباً 24 کتابیں ہیں جن میں تراجم بھی شامل ہیں۔ وہ 37 سال کا تدریسی تجربہ رکھتے ہیں ۔ دہلی یونیورسٹی سے پروفیسر کی حیثیت سے 2004 ء میں سبک دوش ہوئے۔ کشمیر یونی ورسٹی اور جواہر لعل نہرو یونیورسٹی میں وزیٹنگ پروفیسر کی حیثیت سے کام کرتے رہے۔ انہیں متعدد اعزاز بھی مل چکے ہیں۔ انہیں دہلی اردو اکادمی کی جانب سے 2006ء میں تحقیق و تنقید کا اعزاز پیش کیا گیا۔
پروفیسر عبدالحق نے اس کتاب میں پہلے مقدمہ تحریر کیا ہے پھر کچھ منتخب نظمیں ، غزلیں اور رباعیات ، تعلیمی اداروں ، اساتذہ، ملازمت، اردو اور فارسی کتب کا ذکر کیا ہے۔ اس طرح

The concept of freedom and equality enshrined in democratic systems though solves certain individual problems, but at the same time many collective problems arise. In this context, these democratic values become inconsistent with principles of Islamic political system because the concept of freedom and equality in Islam is different from that in western democracy. The Islamic Sharīʻah has divided the obligatory duties into Ḥuqūqul Allah and Ḥuqūq-al-ʻIbād and complying with them guarantee the success in this world and the hereafter. Islam not only connects rights and responsibilities with each other, but also determines their priorities. Those societies where an imbalance is created in discharging duties and rights get caught up in mischief and trouble as an unavoidable consequence as if human beings play the main role in the construction and destruction of societies. Keeping in mind the above mentioned issues, the reality of modern philosophy of human rights and its basic criterions and effects in Islamic perspective has been reviewed to find the causes of failure of modern philosophy in protecting the human rights in the contemporary era. Similarly, explaining the concept of human rights in Islam in modern perspective, a research-based analysis has been presented in this paper.
In modern science and technology the glow discharges have a wide varity of applications. In microelectronics industry the glow discharges are used for etching of surfaces to from topographical surface features, as well as for deposition of thin films. In material processing industry the glow discharges are used extensively for deposition of various thin films, coatings and surface layers. In the present work the diagnostics of pulsed DC generated nitrogen-hydrogen mixture plasma, using an Active Screen Cage is performed so that the optimum working conditions for the purpose of material processing are obtained. Trace rare gas optical emission spectroscopy is used to investigate the effect of current density, filling pressure and hydrogen concentration for the measurement of excitation temperature, vibrational temperature, dissociation fraction and nitrogen atom density. The nitrogen plasma is generated by using 50 Hz pulsed-DC power source. The excitation temperature is determined from Ar-I line intensities, using Boltzmann’s plot method. It has been observed that the excitation temperature increases with both current density and hydrogen concentration, where as it decreases with filling pressure. In order to find out the vibrational temperature of the second positive ?ʋ(?3??,?́→?3??,?̋) system, the Δ? = -2 sequence is used due to comparatively longer lifetime (τ ~ 36 ns) using Boltzmann’s plot method. The behavior of the vibrational temperature remains similar like in the case of excitation temperature. The nitrogen dissociation fraction is calculated using actinometery and line ratio methods. It is observed that the dissociation fraction increases by adding 40% of hydrogen in the nitrogen plasma and then upon further increase of hydrogen concentration it decreases sharply. The atomic density of nitrogen is also calculated using actinometery method, which also increase with hydrogen concentration up to 40% hydrogen in the mixture. Using the optimum condition of current density, filling pressure and hydrogen concentration, different types of steels including AISI 316, AISI 304, mild steel and high xviii carbon steel are nitrided in the presence of the active screen cage. The treated samples are analysed by X-ray diffractrometery (XRD) to investigate the changes in the crystallographic structure. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) is used to investigate the surface morphology of the plasma irradiated samples, where the changes in the surface hardness are measured by Vickers microhardness tester. The XRD pattern of all the samples confirms the presence of nitrides with iron, carbon and chorimum. Microhardness results reveal a 3-7 times harder surface for different samples. The nitrogen mass transfer mechanism in active screen cage plasma nitriding process is also investigated using optical emission spectroscopy. The dominant species including NH, Fe-I, ?2+, N-I and N2 along with ??and ?? lines are observed using optical emission spectroscopy (OES). The factor of sample treatment time for both of Active screen cage and DC plasma nitriding of AISI 316 stainless steel are investigated. Increasing trend in microhardness is observed in both cases but three-fold more hardness is achieved using Active Screen Cage in comparision to direct current plasma nitriding. On the basis of metallurgical and OES observations a new phenomelogical scheme for a nitrogen mass transfer mechanism in active screen cage plasma nitriding process is proposed
