(پروفیسر مسعود حسن)
یہ خبر انتہائی افسوس کے ساتھی سنی جائے گی کہ مولانا محمد اکبر ندوی سابق ریڈر شعبہ عربی و فارسی کلکتہ یونیورسٹی ۱۵؍ رمضان المبارک ۱۴۰۰ھ کو صبح کے وقت ۳۰:۹ بجے اس دار فانی سے عالم جاودانی کو سدھارے۔ اناﷲ وَانا اِلیہ رَاجعُون۔ ان کی وفات سے مغربی بنگال میں عربی زبان کے ایک ممتاز ادیب ایک مستند عالم دین اور استادوں کے استاد کی جگہ خالی ہوگئی۔ راقم الحروف کے لیے ذاتی طور پر یہ حادثہ ایک بہت بڑا سانحہ ہے کیونکہ ان کی موت کے بعد اس کے اساتذہ میں اب کوئی زندہ نہیں رہا۔ اس کے مدرسہ، اسکول کالج اور یونیورسٹی کے استاد سب کے سب اﷲ کو پیارے ہوگئے۔ اس کی علمی رہنمائی کے لئے ایک آخری شمع رہ گئی تھی، موت نے اسے بھی چھین لیا۔
مولانا محمد اکبر ندوی کا وطن مالوف ناگپور تھا۔ مگر عرصہ سے ترک وطن کرکے کلکتے میں مقیم تھے۔ ان کی اعلیٰ تعلیم دارالعلوم ندوۃ العلماء میں ہوئی تھی، وہ مولانا مسعود عالم ندوی مرحوم کے ہم جماعت تھے، طالب علمی کے زمانے میں ان کی عربی خطابت اور عربی انشاء ندوہ میں مشہور تھی۔ فرماتے تھے کہ طلبہ کے ایک جلسے میں ان کی ایک عربی تقریر علامہ سید سلیمان ندویؒ کو اس قدر پسند آئی کہ انھوں نے جیب خاص سے انعام مرحمت فرمایا۔ عربی انشاء پردازی میں مسعود عالم صاحب سے ٹکر ہوتی تھی، ندوہ سے فراغت پاکر کلکتہ آگئے، اور اسلامیہ کالج سے بی۔ اے کیا۔ پھر کلکتہ یونیورسٹی سے عربی اور فارسی دونوں میں ایم اے کی ڈگری لی، اور ڈاکٹر محمد زبیر صدیقی مرحوم کے ارشد تلامذہ میں شمار ہونے لگے۔

Quran is the word of Allah Almighty, therefore, in order to understand it in the true sense, a person has to sharpen his or her intellectual ability as well as increase the knowledge. When one is at a particular intellectual level, only then can he or she start understanding the true message, which Allah Almighty conveyed through words of Quran. Pertaining to the explanation of Quran for the understanding of general audience, different people have tried to write the Tafseer of Quran. Although Muslims recite Quran and try reading it with translation, however, the reading of Tafseer has its own importance. “Tafseer Dawat-Ul-Quran” is written by Abu Nauman Saifullah Khalid and published from Dar-Ul_Undalus Lahore in 2010. This Tafseer has been written in the light of the Quran, Hadith, and the sayings of the companions of Prophet. In this Tafseer correct tradit-ions has been included and unauthentic traditions has been avoided. In theological interpretations, the words of Qur'an are explained in the context of the Qur'an itself or the sayings of The Holy Prophet(ﷺ). This type of interpretation is called “Tafseer Bilmasur”.“Tafseer Dawat-Ul-Quran”is representative of Tafseer Bilmasur. In this research article, the Salient features of “Tafseer Dawat-Ul-Quran” are discussed.
Contagious bovine pleuropneumonia is a highly contagious disease of cattle caused by Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides. It is characterized by anorexia, fever, dyspnea, polypnea, cough, and nasal discharges. Gross lesions in the lung such as marbling, sequestra, thickening of interlobular septa, and consolidation are evident. Lesions are often unilateral with up to 10 liters of straw-colored fluid in thoracic cavity. Complement fixation test, competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and polymerase chain reactions are used for diagnosis purposes. In this study, blood samples of suspected large ruminants (cattle n=560, buffalo n=293) showing respiratory signs before slaughtering, were collected from abattoirs of three districts of Punjab namely Lahore, Kasur and Jhang. Lungs and lymph node samples of same animals were also collected after slaughter. On the basis of PCR results, 49 samples (8.75%) were detected as positive cases of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia, with maximum prevalence was observed in Jhang with 16 positive samples (10.06%). High prevalence of disease was seen in female cattle, cattle of more than seven years of age and in cross-bred cattle. On the basis of gene sequencing targeting 16S ribosomal RNA gene, 5 isolates of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. mycoides were identified having more than 99% similarities with the strains isolated from China, Italy Australia, and Tanzania but least with that isolated from Portugal (<45%). On the basis of ELISA result, antibodies against contagious bovine pleuropneumonia were found in 48 samples, hence seroprevalence was 8.57% in cattle samples. No buffalo sample was detected positive either through PCR or ELISA. On necropsy, consolidation, marbling, sequestra, and fibrosis were observed in lung samples. on histopathological examinations thickening of interlobular septa, inflammatory cells infiltration, pulmonary congestion, alveolitis, bronchiolitis, and suppurative bronchopneumonia were observed in lungs, while mild pathological changes were seen in liver and kidney samples and in lymph node, hyperplasia of immune cells was investigated. A high significant difference (P<0.05) was observed regarding the values of interferon-gamma and interleukin-10 between infected and non-infected animals. This study confirms the presence of contagious bovine pleuropneumonia in the country which can be a threat to livestock export market and warrants the implementation of control measures to mitigate the economic losses associated with the disease.
