    No full text
    The research of the Qur’an and Hadith holds a central and foundational place in the field of Islamic sciences. This discipline has played a pivotal role in shaping the intellectual, religious, and scholarly development of Muslim society. Through this research, the original meanings, interpretations, and legal derivations of the Qur’an and Hadith have been preserved and clarified. Among the earliest and most significant contributors to this tradition were the noble Companions (Ṣaḥābah) of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and their successors, the Tabi\u27in. Their efforts established the essential principles of preservation, explanation, and critical evaluation that continue to guide Islamic scholarship. The Companions witnessed divine revelation and directly heard the sayings of the Prophet (peace be upon him). Their deep understanding and immediate interaction with the Qur’an and Hadith gave them a unique scholarly position. They developed methods for memorization, recitation, and contextual understanding of the Qur’anic verses and were pioneers in Hadith authentication by investigating the reliability of narrators and chains of transmission. Prominent Companions like Abu Hurairah, Aisha, and Ali (may Allah be pleased with them) exemplified this dedication through their keen scholarly insights. Following them, the Tabi\u27in carried forward this scholarly legacy by systematizing the research of Hadith and Qur’an under defined scientific principles. They introduced frameworks for collecting and verifying narrations and contributed to the foundation of jurisprudential schools. Great Imams such as Malik, Abu Hanifa, and Shafi’i built upon the contributions of the Tabi\u27in, establishing robust standards for legal and exegetical interpretation. Together, the Companions and the Tabi\u27in not only preserved the sacred texts but also developed enduring methodologies for interpretation and legal reasoning. Their foundational research continues to be a cornerstone in Islamic academic thought and the progression of the Islamic sciences

    Religious and spiritual beliefs shape many civilizations\u27 rules, actions, and structures. This comparative research examines religion and spirituality in America and Pakistan. Due to historical, cultural, and socio-political reasons, religion and spirituality in both countries vary in expression, interpretation, and social influence. his research focuses on analyzing and contrasting the spiritual and religious practices observed in Pakistan and the United States. The study follows a qualitative approach, relying on secondary sources such as academic texts, scholarly articles, and published reports for data collection. To gain insight into the theological and spiritual principles shaping both societies, relevant literature concerning their historical developments, rituals, and societal impacts was thoroughly reviewed. In the United States, a growing trend toward secularism and religious diversity is evident, with an increasing number of people identifying as spiritual without adhering to formal religious institutions. On the other hand, Pakistan continues to reflect a strong religious identity, where Islamic beliefs deeply influence cultural norms, individual behavior, and community life. Pakistani society is heavily religious, with Islam influencing daily life, governance, and culture. Religion and spirituality provide moral guidance, community cohesion, and personal identity in both societies. Educational and cultural exchange activities between the two countries should improve interfaith understanding and respect. Interfaith conversation should be studied for its role in promoting peace and tolerance in varied societies

    Sentence structure and patterns are of great significance as they play a significant role in effective communication which is the essence of news articles. Limited research has been done on syntactic analysis of sentence structure and patterns employed in newspaper articles. This study conducted a comparative syntactic analysis of news articles from British and Pakistani newspapers. A mixed method approach was followed; the data was collected from five news articles each from the newspapers, The Guardian and The Nation that were published in April 2025 and was analyzed qualitatively by syntactic analysis. The findings with the help of quantitative method were then presented in the form of percentages to show how frequently certain sentence structure and pattern had been used in the newspaper articles. The research concluded that the most common sentence structures used in both newspapers’ articles were S+V, S+LV+SC, S+V+O+A, and S+V+O among others. Among the four sentence structures, S+V+O+A (41%)  was frequently used in The Nation while S+LV+SC (49%) was used the most in The Guardian. Moreover, the most frequently occurring sentence pattern was the simple sentence (32.8%) in The Nation whereas complex sentence (38.5%) was the most used in The Guardian. The research contributes to the understanding of the usage of sentence structures and patterns in newspapers and can enhance comprehension, human communication, and journalism practices

    Effects of School and Home Environment on Students’ Learning at Secondary Level

    Full text link
    This study investigates the effects of both school and home environments on students’ learning outcomes at the secondary level. Recognizing that academic achievement is shaped by a combination of institutional and domestic factors, the research explores the influence of climate, teacher–student relationships, teaching quality, peer interactions, and the availability of learning resources and infrastructure in schools. Similarly, it examines the role of parental involvement, socio-economic status, home study habits, family support, and access to digital learning tools within the home setting. A mixed-methods approach was employed, utilizing surveys, classroom observations, and semi-structured interviews with students, teachers, and parents from diverse socio-economic backgrounds. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics, while qualitative data were thematically coded to identify recurring patterns. Findings reveal that a positive school climate, supportive teacher–student relationships, adequate learning facilities, and constructive peer influence significantly enhance student motivation and academic performance. Likewise, parental engagement, stable socio-economic conditions, consistent study routines, and reliable digital access at home were found to strongly correlate with improved learning outcomes. The study underscores the need for integrated interventions where both schools and families collaboratively foster environments conducive to holistic student development. Recommendations include targeted teacher training, improved infrastructure, parental education programs, and policies to bridge the digital divide

    حدیثی ذخیرے میں صحیح ابن حبان کے منہج کی  انفرادیت: The Uniqueness of Sahih Ibn Hibban\u27s Methodology in the Collection of Hadith

    No full text
    Ṣaḥīḥ Ibn-e-Ḥibbān stands as a remarkable scholarly masterpiece within the rich tradition of ḥadīth literature. In this monumental work, Imam Ibn-e-Ḥibbān systematically compiled authentic narrations according to a distinctive methodological framework, formulated upon his own precise terms, classifications, and conditions. This unique arrangement not only demonstrates his intellectual independence but also mirrors the literary and methodological tendencies of his time. The compilation reveals the author’s exceptional ability to combine rigorous authenticity with structural innovation, presenting a new paradigm in ḥadīth organization that later scholars both admired and debated. Over the centuries, Ṣaḥīḥ Ibn-e-Ḥibbān has continued to draw the attention of scholars, researchers, and students of ḥadīth. Its scientific precision, linguistic excellence, and insightful commentary earned it a position of high esteem among the classical sources, to the extent that numerous scholars have chosen it as the focus of their academic research. Nevertheless, despite its profound scholarly merit and its rank comparable to certain works among the Ṣiḥāḥ-e-Sittah (the Six Canonical Collections), it has not received the widespread prominence it truly deserves. In the contemporary era, there remains a pressing need for renewed examination of this work—particularly concerning its methodological principles, arrangement, explanatory annotations, and supplementary discussions. The present study aims to highlight these essential aspects of Ibn Ḥibbān’s methodology and framework, employing both narrative and analytical approaches to shed light on his enduring intellectual legacy and its relevance to modern ḥadīth scholarship

    De-centering the Human: A Close Reading of Nonhuman Agency in Elif Shafak’s The Island of Missing Trees

    Full text link
    This research explores how Elif Shafak’s The Island of Missing Trees (2021) challenges human-centered perspectives by giving narrative consciousness to a fig tree. The study investigates how Shafak redefines storytelling through a dialogue between human and nonhuman life that turns the novel into a reflection on coexistence, empathy, and ecological awareness. The research examines how the novel builds meaning through the vitality of matter and the agency of the nonhuman world by deploying Rosi Braidotti’s post human philosophy and Serpil Oppermann’s framework of material Eco criticism. The fig tree is not a passive symbol but a conscious voice that remembers, feels, and communicates. Through close reading, the research uncovers how the text connects human trauma with environmental memory and shows that healing begins with recognizing the interdependence among all forms of life. The analysis reveals that empathy is presented as a shared ecological capacity that extends beyond human boundaries and becomes a foundation for ethical coexistence. This study contributes to post human and environmental literary discussions by showing how fiction can express new forms of consciousness and responsibility. The novel invites readers to imagine coexistence built on care, reciprocity, and respect for the entire living world

    The Role of Sacred Personalities in Social Cohesion: A Research and Analytical Review in the Light of Islamic Teachings

    To make the society stable, Islam teaches peace and security and respects every human being. As the Almighty has said: There is no compulsion in the religion, indeed, the righteous path is misguided. It is known from the Almighty that the religion is not the name of power but the name of peace and security; therefore it is our duty as a Muslim to invite a non-Muslim to the religion of Islam. Not by finding fault with its religion or by desecrating its sanctuaries. Blasphemy is defined as mocking or insulting anything or person that violates any religion or religion or its followers. They are considered to be revered and sacred. All religions have their own rituals and beliefs. Muslims consider Islam as sacred, Christians consider Jesus and the Gospel as sacred, Jews consider Moses and the night as sacred, Hindus believe in the sanctity of their books and cows, while Sikhs consider Guru Nanak as sacred. Therefore, people of all religions should respect each other\u27s sanctities so as not to fuel the fire of sedition and disorder in the society, nor to create chaos in the society, but to live with each other with love and affection and one Avoid insulting other people\u27s sanctities. In the Holy Qur\u27an, Allah Almighty says: "And (O Muslims!) call those whom they worship apart from Allah, otherwise they will curse Allah out of ignorance and ignorance. He has embellished its knowledge for the people, then they must return to their Lord, then He will inform them of what they used to do." Not only the Muslims are responsible for this behaviour, but also the infidels have the responsibility to respect the sacred things of the Muslims. But on the other hand, the incidents of blasphemy are increasing day by day, due to which the sentiments of Muslims are hurt and they are forced to take such measures, due to which the social stability would be destroyed. In such a situation, the international community should take into account the feelings and emotions of Muslims and not take any actions that hurt the feelings of billions of Muslims and also on Muslims

    A Research Review of the Differences in the Themes of the Four Gospels

    Full text link
    The first four books of the New Testament of the Holy Bible, which Christian nations regard as divinely revealed, are known as the Gospels. These books are named after the four distinct disciples of Jesus Christ (peace be upon him), namely Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. These books were compiled by the disciples of Jesus after his ascension to heaven, with each disciple gathering available information based on their individual knowledge and perspective. The Gospels offer an account of the teachings, commandments, events, and aspects of the life of Jesus (peace be upon him), including his birth, ministry, death, and resurrection. Some of the authors also elaborated on the reasons behind writing these books, aiming to spread the message of Jesus to different communities. The authors being distinct from each other and writing from different points of view led to differences in the content of these books. Some Gospels are more detailed, while others are more succinct, providing varied narratives of the same events. For example, the Gospel of John presents the life of Jesus in a unique manner compared to the Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, and Luke). As a result, discrepancies exist between the accounts, particularly concerning the number of verses and chapters, as well as the ordering of events. These variations give rise to questions regarding the consistency and accuracy of the information presented. This paper aims to present some of the disagreements found in the common themes of these books, including the differences in key events, teachings, and perspectives. By understanding these differences, it may be easier to critically analyze the authenticity of the Gospels and form an informed judgment

    اولاد رسول اکرم ﷺایک تحقیقی جائزہ

    No full text
    The number and identification of the children of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) have been widely debated among historians and Hadith scholars. It is universally agreed that the Prophet (PBUH) had four daughters, but there is disagreement regarding the number of his sons. This disparity stems from the fact that all of his male children died in infancy or early childhood. According to the majority of scholars, the Prophet (PBUH) had three sons Al-Qasim, Abdullah, and Ibrahim. Some sources mention additional sons named At-Tayyib and At-Tahir, while others claim that At-Tayyib and At-Tahir were either the same person or that Abdullah was also known by these names. Thus, while varying accounts exist, the most widely accepted view is that the Prophet (PBUH) had three sons. It is also significant that all of the Prophet\u27s children, except for Ibrahim, were born to his first wife, Hazrat Khadijah (RA). This paper delves into these differing opinions, examining the historical and textual reasons behind the discrepancies. By analyzing primary sources and scholarly interpretations, it aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the Prophet\u27s offspring and clarify the confusion surrounding the number and identity of his sons. The research highlights the importance of contextualizing Islamic historical sources and underscores the role of early Islamic scholars in shaping the narrative of the Prophet\u27s family. Understanding these differences also provides insights into the cultural and theological views prevalent during the early years of Islam
