صوتیات کا اجمالی جائزہ
زبان اللہ تعالیٰ کی ایک عظیم نعمت ہے۔ یہ اظہار کا ذریعہ ہے۔ صوتیات وہ علم ہے جو ہمیں زبان کی آوازوں اور ان کی جان کاری میں نہ صرف مدد فراہم کرتا ہے، بل کہ اس کے لیے اصول بھی مرتب کرتا ہے۔ صوتیات میں زبان کی آوازوں کےپیداہونے کے طریقے اور ان کی صحیح درجہ بندی کا مطالعہ کیاجاتا ہے۔ صوتیات لسانیات کی اہم شاخ ہے۔ بعض علمائے لسانیات کے بقول صوتیات کے بغیر لسانیات نا کافی ہے۔ صوتیات کا کام زبان کی آوازوں کو دریافت کرنا، اس کو صحیح رسم الخط فراہم کرنا، جن زبانوں کے پاس رسم الخط نہیں ہے انہیں رسم الخط فراہم کرنا اور الفاظ کی درست ادائیگی میں معاونت ہے۔ ہر زبان میں عہد کے ساتھ ساتھ تبدیلیاں رونماہوتی رہتی ہیں۔کچھ الفاظ متروک ہوتےہیں، کچھ کا املا بدل جاتا ہے اور کچھ قواعد واصول بھی بدلتے رہتےہیں۔ صوتیات کسی بھی زبان کا منظم علامتی اور تصوراتی نظام ہوتا ہے۔ انسانی ذہن بے شمار آوازیں پیدا کرنے کی خُداداد صلاحیت رکھتا ہے۔ انسانی منہ سے اَن گنت آوازیں نکلتی ہیں لیکن صوتیات میں صرف بامعنی آوازوں کا مطالعہ کیا جاتا ہے۔ زمان ومکان کے حالات کے مطابق زبان میں پایا جانے والا تغیر وتبدل اس کی صوتی ہیئت میں بھی تبدیلیاں لاتا ہے۔
صوتیات کی تعریف
بقول پروفیسر اقتدار حسین:
’’زبان کی آوازوں کے سائینٹی فک یامنظم طور سے مطالعے کو صوتیات کہتے ہیں۔‘‘۲۹؎
جیسا کہ لسانیات کے باب میں بتایا گیا ہے کہ یہ ایک سائنس ہے، اسی طرح صوتیات بھی ایک سائنس ہے۔ ڈاکٹر اقتدار حسین نے اسے زبان کے سائنیٹی فک مطالعے سے تعبیر کیا ہے۔ لہٰذا ہم کہہ سکتے ہیں کہ ماہر صوتیات ایسا سائنس دان ہوتا ہے جو زبان کی تمام آوازوں کو سمجھنے، ان میں فرق کرنے اور ان کا...
The woman was once considered a commodity and property of her male partner that was to be used for satisfying physical needs and procreation. There was no concept of woman rights in its ideal sense for many centuries in east and the west. Though socialists and historians claim that woman was once head of the family in the agricultural age due to certain factors of that age, the plight of women throughout various phases of history is pityful. It was when Islam came that the just rights for women were granted to them keeping in view their innate capabilities and requirement. The Islamic law of inheritance is one of such rights that accommodate and preserve economic needs of a woman in view of her rights and responsibilities as a mother, sister, daughter, and wife. Muslim states in the current age have also legislated and enforced certain laws in accordance with these Qur’anic principles. Contemporary Pashtun society, mainly a male-dominant society, indicates quite an opposite approach towards woman’s share in inheritance, however. An attempt has been made in this paper to study and explore the context, factors, and impacts of the Pashtun social traditions regarding women’s share in inheritance and explain the teachings of Islam based on rationality and divine wisdom and highlight the State Law in this respect as well.
Women have been bound by traditional norms, beliefs, and values in which they are given secondary status within their communities as compared to men. They are marginalized by a patriarchal culture that assigns them the household respon- sibility. Although, women occupation in most of the societies has largely depended on childbearing, sustenance of the family and labor work in industries. However, in recent days the awareness and educational development among women have emerged the desire for small business and entrepreneurship. The idea of women''s entrepreneurship is not new in Pakistan and its acceptance as an important associate to achieve supportable monetary growth. However, despite the intention of doing business by women in Pakistan is low due to diversi ed factors like high discrimination, low trust, lack of con dence in the culture and society. There is rare evidence that women are increasingly involved in decision- making but there is no proper guiding principle to enlighten them to come out of their lives comfort zone. Having observed the literature on women problems and their intention to be self- independent this study has developed a psychological integral model based on the psychological factors determining women entrepreneurship in Pakistan. The present study has also examined the association and impact of these explored factors on the entrepreneurial intention & behavior of young female business stu- dents who are studying in management sciences in di erent universities and degree awarding institutions of Pakistan. The study mainly pedestals on the Theory of Planned Behavior of Ajzen (1991), which can help in clarifying the entrepreneurial business intention & behavior of female students. This cross-sectional study was conducted through a research questionnaire survey by adopting valid instruments. The data was collected from 895 respondents ''female students. The hierarchical regression analysis (bootstrap) applied to test the impact of factors on women entrepreneurial intentions that lead to their behavior using AMOS and SPSS-(bootstrap). The result showed that women with high self-e cacy, self-con dence, the locus of control, social identity,self-realization, self-esteem, family tradition, faced gender discrimination scored higher on women entrepreneurial intention. As a moderator, extrovert and openness to experience (personality dimensions) have less in uence on women entrepreneurial intention but religiosity and per- sonal network in uence women entrepreneurial intention signi cantly. Moreover, results suggest signi cant direct and indirect e ects of women entrepreneurial in- tention through the mediation variables, attitudes towards behavior, subjective norms, and perceived behavior control. Findings of this study will contribute to the entrepreneurial body of knowledge and will be useful to regulators and poli- cymakers to encourage and enhance business intention in women, enabling them to contribute their expected role in Pakistan.
