آہ! الا ستاذ الاجل
۸؍مارچ کے اخبار الجمعیۃ میں جب یہ خبر نظر سے گزری کہ حضرت الاستاذ مولانا محمد اعزازعلی صاحب پرقلب کادورہ پڑگیا اوراس کی وجہ سے کچھ بے ہوشی رہی اوراب تھوڑی تھوڑی دیرکے بعد دورے پڑرہے ہیں تواسی وقت ماتھا ٹھنکا کہ خدا خیرکرے۔چٹان جب گرتی ہے تو مٹی کے تودہ کی طرح رِس رِس کے نہیں اچانک ہی گرتی ہے۔چنانچہ دوسرے دن کااخبار آیاتو دل کے دغدغہ کی تصدیق ہوگئی اور جس خبرِوحشت اثر کوسننے کے لیے کان تیار نہ تھے اس کایقین کرنا پڑا۔ یعنی حضرت الاستاذ راہی ملک بقا ہوگئے۔اِنّا لِلّٰہِ وَاِنَّا اِلَیْہِ رَاجِعُوْنَ۔
دارالعلوم دیوبند شروع سے معدنِ لعل وگہر رہا ہے۔کتنے ہی ذرے اس کی آغوش میں پلے اور بڑھے اورعلم وفضل کے آسمان پرآفتاب بن کر چمکے، کتنے چاند اورستارے اس کے آسمان پرطلوع ہوئے اوراپنی اپنی روشنی دکھا کراسی دارالعلوم کے دامن میں روپوش ہوگئے، کیسے کیسے گُہر ہائے آبدار اس کی خاکِ پاک سے اٹھے اورعلم وعمل، تقوی وطہارت اورزہد و ورع کی بزم قدس کوجگمگاکر پھرخاکِ لحد میں جاملے ۔آج وہ نہیں ہیں لیکن ان کی یادگاریں باقی ہیں خودان کا وجود فنا ہوگیا لیکن ان کے کارنامے زندہ ہیں اور وہ گویا خود زبانِ حال سے کہہ رہے ہیں:
تلک آثارنا تدل علینا
فانظر وا بعدنا الی الآثار
دارالعلوم دیوبند اگر شاندار عمارتوں ،درسگاہوں،اقامت خانوں اور وسیع و فراخ دروازوں اور اونچی اونچی دیواروں کانام نہیں بلکہ درحقیقت وہ انھیں نفوسِ قدسیہ کاایک پیکرِ محسوس اور انھیں ارواحِ طیبہ کاایک مظہرِ مادی وجسمانی ہے تو کوئی شبہ نہیں کہ حضرت الاستاذ اس عمارت کے ایک اہم ستون اوراس بزمِ انس و قدس کے ایک لعلِ شب چراغ تھے۔گزشتہ نصف صدی میں اس درسگاہ کوتعلیم و تعلم کے اعتبارسے جوشہرت وعظمت حاصل رہی ہے اس میں ایک بڑا حصہ...
BackgroundMany women enjoy wearing high heels despite knowing they can harm their feet. Many uncomfortable conditions can originate from wearing this shoe, leading to biomechanical changes in ankle joints. Hence, the study is aimed to identify the effects of massage therapy in improving muscular flexibility among women wearing high heels. MethodologyForty female participants with chronic heel pain were included in the single-blinded, randomized controlled trial. Participants were divided into Group-A (Stretching and deep heat) and Group-B (petrissage and deep heat). The treatment was performed for 4 weeks, 3 sessions/week in both groups. Foot function index and ankle dorsiflexion were recorded at baseline and after 4-weeks of intervention. ResultsForty female participants with a mean age of 28.23±6.24 were recruited. Both groups showed significant improvement in all three variables, i.e. Pain, disability, and ankle dorsiflexion. However, Group-B showed more significant results with mean differences of 1.80±2.22 and 4.1±6.7 (p<0.05) for pain and disability, respectively. A similar result was observed for ankle dorsiflexion in which a mean difference of 0.95±1.08 in the left and 1.25±1.12 in the right ankle was observed. ConclusionBoth treatment programs are highly effective in reducing pain, reducing disability, and improving ankle joint ROM. However, petrissage massage and deep heating were superior to superficial heat with static stretching for females with chronic heel pain. DOI: https: //doi. Org/10.59564/amrj/01.01/006
This mixed study evaluated the professional teaching of chemistry through learners’ perspective against the criteria of B.Ed at public secondary schools in Pakistan regarding eight aspects: general professional teaching skills, lesson planning, teaching methods, audio-visual aids, students’ classroom activities and formative assessment, and course coverage of theory and practical. I collected quantitative data through self-developed questionnaire of 70 items using stratified sampling of 350 students from boys-only, girls only, boys in co-education, and girls in co-education across rural and urban schools; however, qualitative data involved 20 students’ semi-structured interviews. A panel of experts and pilot testing refined the tools. The overall Coronbach’s alpha stood at 0.9 and 0.8 for professional teaching and test-items respectively. Descriptive statistics, multiple regression, correlation, independent samples t-test, and ANOVA analyses revealed the failure of existing professional teaching of chemistry. The qualitative thematic analyses and triangulation confirmed it: Dictation of questions and answers as dominant teaching method, and constantly locked science laboratories and equipments emerged as the major themes. Laboratory experimentation, audio-visual aids, chemistry theory, and teaching methods strongly predicted students’ test-scores with 41.7% surety. However, demographic variables: Students’ favorite subject, home study, parents’ income, and students’ gender weakly predicted learners’ test-scores. Independent samples t-test and ANOVA analyses revealed that EVALUATION OF TEACHING OF CHEMISTRY 2 students devoting more time to home-study and tuition, especially in natural sciences, and students’ from separate schools for gender, and parents with higher earning and rank got significantly different test-scores; however, gender and parents’ education had no significant differences. I presented feasible and realistic recommendations to the concerned stakeholders. Key words: evaluation, chemistry, professional training, teaching, secondary schools
