In the early days of Islam, either of the married couple entering into Islam does not affect their marriage contract and it continued to be valid even after the Emigration of the Holy Prophet (peace and mercy be upon him) to Madina. In fact, it has been observed until Hudhabiya Truce was signed. It was also included the terms if someone from Quraish without accompanying the wali approaches the Holy Prophet (Peaceand Mercy be upon him), he/she will be returned to Makkah. After this agreement, many women came to Madina and embraced Islam. But their spouses and relatives followed them their way to Madina. They claimed them back to Makkah. In this respect, Allah almighty revealed a verse of Surah Mumtahina, which is an express evidence that such believing women must not be returned to their former infidel husbands. They were commanded so to marry believing husbands after their separation from their disbelieving spouses. Through this verse, Muslim husbands were forbidden to stay and have conjugal relations with their nonbelieving wives, too. Similarly, every believing wife was forbidden to reside with her disbelieving husband. The companions abided by the ruling in its entirety and separated from their non- believing spouses. Jurists have derived many instructions from the verse 10 of Surah Mumtahina, which are discussed in this paper.
Implications of Urdunization in Pakistan English to Comprehend It as a Second Language Language and culture are interrelated. English is a global language and Pakistan has an increasing interest in English language learning. Indigenization is an important aspect which helps in learning L2. Indigenization means transforming words, terms, syntactic structures, etc to suit a local culture. Ll interference on L2 is always a debatable issue. Some scholars favor the use of LI in L2 learning while some are against this view. In language, indigenization is done to minimize or to remove the alienating affect. My research has tested whether Urduization in Pakistani English is helpful in comprehending English as a second language or not. In Pakistan, "Urduization" is done in Pakistani English very frequently. I have used "multi-method approach" in this research. The topic of this research falls into the social sciences. My research is "exploratory" and "descriptive" in nature. The sample population of my research is the students of Advanced Diploma in English (1st and 2nd semesters) who are learning English as a second language at the National University of Modern Languages. The researcher has used worksheet as a basic tool to collect the data and to test the hypothesis. These worksheets are used to test the Semantic/Pragmatic comprehension at three levels: Lexical, Sentential, and Discursive. Many examples of indigenizing Urdu words in English are listed from English news paper which highlights the use of Urduization in Pakistan. The analysis is done through SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences). On the bases of the findings, it can be concluded that Urduization helps in comprehending English as a second language.
