استفساری اسلوبِ تفسیر اور فہم قرآن میں اس کےاطلاقی اسالیب : تحدیدات وامکانات: Queries based Method of Exegesis and its applied styles in understanding Qur’ān: Limitations and possibilities
No full textThe Qur’ānic commentators have employed various styles and methods to interpret Qur’ān. One of these styles and methods is query-based method of exegesis which can be considered an important and effective style of Qur’ānic interpretation. Such type of exegesis comes forth when interpretation is offered in reply to a question asked about a Qur’ānic verse.
For the justification and proof of this inquiring interpretation, there are a lot of evidences and examples from the Qur’ān, Hadith, and the sayings of the Prophet’s Companions and Tābei’n.
These queries and their replies played an important role in understanding the Qur’ānic text. Various interpretations have been written fully or partially on this style which are compiled and some among them are published and some are still unpublished. This approach of exegeses can be very useful for understanding Qur’ān in this age and in future.
This article attempts to explain the query-based method of exegesis and its applied styles in understanding Qur’ān with its limitations and possibilities.

روایات شق صدر پر سرسید احمد خان کے بیانیہ کا ناقدانہ جائزہ: A Critical Review of Sir Syed Ahmad Khan's Narrative on Ahadees-i-Shaq Sadr
No full textThe current era is one of the advancements of rational sciences, where everything is measured and weighed on the scales of Rationality, and it is considered the definitive standard for determining right and wrong. However, revelation (Wahi) holds a status above Rationality. It is not necessary for all information provided by revelation to align with rationality. In the past, influenced by the prominence of rational sciences, some individuals actively attempted to align revelation with the framework of rationality. Among these individuals, one prominent figure in the recent past was Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, who worked on this subject. One of the topics he addressed was the miracle of Shaqq-e-Sadr (purifying Prophet Muhammad's heart). To bring this miracle into the domain of rationality, Sir Syed adopted two approaches in his discourse: 1. He denied the actual occurrence of the event and attempted to prove it as a dream. 2. He questioned the authenticity of the Ahadees(About Sahqq e Sadar) that support the event as a real occurrence in a state of wakefulness. In the present age of rationalism, it is essential to preserve the Real status of revelation, so This article critically examines both claims made by Sir Syed Ahmed Kha

تعدد ازواج النبیﷺ: فیمنسٹ و جدیداستشراقی بیانیہ کا سیرت طیبہﷺ کی روشنی میں جواب: Marriage Practices of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ: A Study in the Context of Islamic Law and Modern Orientalist And Feminist Thought
No full textThe practice of the Prophet Muhammad’s ﷺ multiple marriages is a significant topic within Islamic teachings and the life of the Prophet ﷺ. His multiple marriages were conducted in response to social needs and broader objectives, including social stability, the protection of women’s rights, and the eradication of social evils. Through his marriages, the Prophet ensured the welfare of widowed women, ended tribal conflicts, and reduced social distinctions. His multiple marriages served as a practical example of how Islam promoted social equality and justice, recognizing the importance of women's roles, education, and social contributions. However, Orientalist Thoughts and feminist scholars object to the practice of the Prophet’s ﷺ multiple marriages, arguing that it was based on the violation of women’s rights, resulting in the exploitation of women’s rights and the restriction of their freedom and autonomy. Feminists contend that these practices are at odds with the principles of gender equality. According to them, the absence of principles of justice and equality in the Prophet’s ﷺ multiple marriages reflects the limited and secondary status of women in Islam. This feminist critique challenges the social and legal justification of the Prophet’s ﷺ multiple marriages and calls for a reconciliation of his teachings with modern feminist thought

Religious Conviction or Pragmatic Strategy? Analyzing Iranian Foreign Policy from 2005 to 2020
Get PDFThis paper analyzes Iranian foreign policy from 2005 to 2020, examining the interplay between religious ideology and pragmatic strategy. It argues that while religion plays a significant role in shaping Iran's worldview and justifying its actions, pragmatism is the dominant driver of its foreign policy decisions. Through case studies of Iran's relations with Syria, Azerbaijan, and various non-state actors, and its policy towards Chechnya and Xinjiang, the paper demonstrates how Iran prioritizes national interests and strategic goals, even when they conflict with its foundational principles. The analysis covers the presidencies of Ahmadinejad and Rouhani, highlighting the continuity of pragmatic approaches despite differing political styles. The paper concludes that understanding Iranian foreign policy requires acknowledging the complex interaction of religious rhetoric and strategic calculation, with pragmatism ultimately guiding Iran's pursuit of regional influence and its engagement with the international community
