Corporate Governance and Financial Performance: Evidence from Financial Firms Listed on Pakistan Stock Exchange
Get PDFThis study investigates the connection between corporate governance (CG) and the financial performance of financial firms using three performance metrics: return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE), and Tobin's Q (TQ). The analysis employs the pooled ordinary least squares panel econometric technique, using data from 70 financial firms listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) between 2007 and 2017. The results show that board composition, board ownership, institutional ownership, foreign ownership, CEO duality, CEO compensation, auditor remuneration, and executive compensation positively and significantly influence financial performance. In contrast, board independence and audit type are negatively associated with performance. The control variables, firm size and leverage, are also negatively related to all financial performance measures. Among the performance metrics, ROE has the strongest association with most CG indicators, while ROA and TQ show weaker relationships. Additionally, the findings confirm that firms adhering to corporate governance codes outperform those that do not.

آیت مصارفِ زکوۃ میں ’’فی سبیل اللہ‘‘ کی تعیین (ائمہ مجتہدین اور معاصر اہل علم کی تصریحات کی روشنی میں تجزیاتی مطالعہ): Determination of " Fī Sabīlillāh" in the Verse of Zakāt Expenditures (An Analytical Study in the Light of the Opinions of Mujtāhid Imāms and Contemporary Scholars)
No full textThe Qur'an has outlined these eight categories for the expenditure of zakāt; among them, an important category is "Fī Sabīlillāh." The literal meaning of "Fī Sabīlillāh" is generally understood as striving in the path of Allah. Generally, its concept and meaning are very broad. However, in the verse on the expenditures of zakāt, who exactly qualifies as "Fī Sabīlillāh"? On this issue, the opinions of Mujtāhid Imāms Fuqahā, Mufassirīn, and contemporary scholars differ. The present article examines the determination of "Fī Sabīlillāh" based on evidence. Contemporary scholars advocate for an unrestricted interpretation of "Fī Sabīlillāh." Some suggest a limited scope, while the majority of Muḥaddithīn and Fuqahā consider its scope to be very narrow. Both sides possess numerous arguments supporting their viewpoints. Among contemporary scholars, Dr. Allāmah Qarḍāwī has adopted a moderate position, including different types of jihād such as jihād with the pen and jihād with the tongue. This article will first present the views of later and contemporary scholars, followed by the opinions of the majority, and then analyze their arguments

India's Sufi Order and Interfaith Harmony: ہندوستان میں تصوّف کے سلاسل اور بین المذاہب ہم آہنگی
No full textSufism revolves around nurturing the human soul, urging individuals to embrace virtue and abandon vice. Unlike the mere physical existence of humanity, the spiritual dimension plays a crucial role, and Sufism, deeply rooted in Islamic teachings, provides guidance for this inner journey. Grounded in moderation, Sufism fulfills one of the key missions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), emphasizing purification of the heart and soul alongside acquiring wisdom and understanding.
Central to this ethos is the concept of Ihsan, as highlighted in the Hadith Jibreel, which describes excellence in worship and mindfulness of God. This essence of Sufism integrates faith, worship, and spiritual refinement. Imam Malik aptly remarked on the balance between jurisprudence and Sufism, stating that true understanding comes from combining both disciplines.
In the Indian subcontinent, Sufism significantly shaped Islam's spread and its coexistence with other religions. Prominent figures like Hazrat Ali Hajvari (Data Ganj Bakhsh) and Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti brought Sufism to the region, advocating for unity and harmony. Their teachings opposed extremism and bridged communities, focusing on humanity rather than divisions.
Sufi monasteries, or khanqahs, played a pivotal role in this transformation. They served as sanctuaries for marginalized communities, fostering social welfare and providing spiritual guidance. These institutions strengthened Sufism’s presence, creating an inclusive environment that transcended caste and creed.
This article delves into the origin and essence of Sufism, explores its foundational principles, and traces its role in fostering interfaith harmony in the subcontinent. It also provides an overview of four major Sufi orders in India, detailing their contributions to promoting a unified and spiritually enriched society. Through these efforts, Sufism remains a beacon of peace and integration in diverse cultures
