محتشم عبدالغنی مرحوم
جناب محتشم عبدالغنی مرحوم کا تعلق سرزمین بھٹکل سے ہے، ہندوستان کے مغربی ساحل پر بحر عرب کی موجوں کی بے تابی، نمی، خنکی، گہرائی اور گیرائی کے ہمہ وقت نظارے میں محو، بھٹکل کی یہ ساحلی زمین، مردم خیز رہی ہے، جناب محتشم عبدالغنی بھی اپنی دینی، تعلیمی اور سماجی خدمات کی وجہ سے بھٹکل کے قابل فخر فرزند تھے، نام و نمود سے دور رہنے اور خموشی کو ترجیح دینے اور تجارت میں مصروف رہنے کے باوجود ان کی ملت کے لیے دل سوزی اور مقاصد کے مطلوب سرمستی ورعنائی نے ان کو بڑی مقبولیت عطا کی تھی، دارالعلوم ندوۃالعلما کی مجلس انتظامیہ اور آل انڈیا مسلم پرسنل لا بورڈ کے وہ رکن اساسی تھے، مسلم یونی ورسٹی علی گڑھ کی کورٹ کے معزز ممبر بھی تھے، قوم و ملت کے اداروں کے لیے فکر مند اور عملاً ان کی بہود و ترقی کے لیے کوشاں رہے لیکن ان کی جدوجہد، ایثار و قربانی کا سب سے حسین مرقع بھٹکل بلکہ گواسے کیرلا تک پورا مغربی ساحل ہے، دینی، اخلاقی، تعلیمی، تجارتی اور سیاسی لحاظ سے یہ پورا خطہ دوسروں کے لیے قابل تقلید ہے، وہاں کے مسلمانوں کی اس بیداری میں بے شبہ محتشم عبدالغنی مرحوم کی خدمات سب سے نمایاں ہیں، بھٹکل میں ان کو قائد قوم کہا جاتا تھا، حق یہ ہے کہ ان کی قیادت کی ضرورت پوری ملت اسلامیہ ہندیہ کو تھی۔
راقم الحروف کو ان کی خدمت میں حاضر ہونے کا موقع ملا، جسمانی لحاظ سے وہ قد آور اور وجیہ و شکیل تھے، دل بھی اتنا ہی پاک اور شفاف تھا، گفتگو کی دل کشی ان کے لہجے کی معصومیت سے اور سوا ہوجاتی تھی، وہ مولانا سید ابوالحسن علی ندوی کے بڑے عقیدت مند تھے اور اسی عقیدت کی وجہ سے دارالعلوم ندوۃالعلما سے...
Every single thing made by Allah, the Creator of all things has its own essence of beauty and attraction to it. However, out of all the stunning creations of Almighty Allah, humans are the most superior creation which has the ability to gain knowledge. We, humans, have been given the power by Allah to explore the rest of his creations in nature and fully understand the beauty and functions of each and every aspect of it in order to take advantage of it. Islam is a religion based on nature and Shariah is a law which lays down rules for Muslims to follow which also allows us to move forward with the advancements in the world. It has a unique way of life for any person of any time to follow which cannot be found in any other religion. However, any development which takes place creates new problems and new obstacles which can only be manoeuvred by the researchers and scholars of that specific time who will decide the right use of that commodity and explain the commodity. This will allow the new invention to be utilised fully. Moreover, in this world many people want to look their best and feel their best and will be willing to go through many ways for their ideal look. With this desire, many jobs become associated with achieving this for people. Nonetheless, this leads to people putting their time, money and effort into something which can risk their entire life which can result in either an advantage or disadvantage. Moreover, they should know whether this is against their religious values. Those acts which cross your religious boundaries and are considered “haram”or not permitted are wrong. Thus, it is necessary for us to first consider whether it is crossing the boundaries and proving to be disadvantageous for you so that the wrong norms and values are not transmitted into the future generations.
Students' leadership is one of the fundamental outcomes of schooling, which should be given importance to prepare them for the demanding and challenging futures they face. In the school, the principal plays a significant role in supporting and developing students' leadership skills. It thus becomes the principal's prime responsibility to structure and maintain a positive and enabling environment for the students, where they can recognize their own values, beliefs and strengths and try to define and solve their own problems. Thus, this study focuses on the role of the principal of a private secondary school in Karachi, Pakistan, in facilitating students' leadership skills. Since, this study seeks to explore one principal's role in a particular context, therefore a qualitative approach has been chosen, employing the case study method. The case was the principal, whereas the secondary participants were teachers, students and different teaching and learning programmes in which students were practically engaged to develop their leadership skills.The findings of the study reveal that the principal perceives his school as much more than just a building where students are taught from the textbooks and are only prepared for academic achievement. He rather puts in system and practice an approach that ensures the students' holistic development. He facilitates students' leadership skills by engaging them in purposeful activities through co curricular programmes and through encouraging teachers' professional development. The principal's role in generating resources and looking out for a variety of opportunities and strategies to develop students' leadership skills was also found to be an important area of his role. In addition, it is also observed that to develop students' leadership skills is a collective contribution of principal, vice principal and teachers. The principal does not directly influence students' leadership' skills, but sets the policies and practices that ensure student leadership.This means that no matter what approach a school takes, the willingness, motivation, dedication and commitment of the principal is fundamental to bring forth all the potentials of the stakeholders to create a collaborative learning environment in the school. Thus, the role of the principal is central and evident, for effectively leading a community of teachers, learners and other school community members, in order to students' leadership skills raise student self esteem and to help them succeed as leaders. One very illuminating finding is the selective nature of developing the leadership skills of a few. Other studies to find out how and why
