سیرت النبیﷺ کی اطلاقی جہتیں: قیامِ امن، سماجی تعمیر نو اور مفاہمت: Applied Dimensions Of The Seerah Of Prophet Hazrat Mohammad (Peace Be Upon Him): Peace Building, Social Reconstruction And Reconciliation
No full textBefore the advent of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), the world was engulfed in the darkness of ignorance, oppression, and social disintegration. His blessed arrival illuminated the universe, introducing a comprehensive system based on divine guidance and prophetic wisdom. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) not only brought a spiritual revolution but also presented a complete framework for individual and collective reform. This paper delves into the practical dimensions of Seerat-un-Nabi (PBUH), particularly emphasizing his role in the establishment of peace, social reconstruction, and reconciliation. His mission embodied mercy, justice, and human dignity, transforming a tribal and conflict-ridden society into a model of ethical governance and peaceful coexistence. The Prophet (PBUH) laid down principles of mutual respect, tolerance, and fulfillment of rights, setting the groundwork for a just and peaceful society. His conflict resolution strategies, such as the Charter of Madinah and the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah, reflect a deep commitment to dialogue, coexistence, and pluralism. Under his leadership, the social order became so secure that a woman could travel alone without fear of harm—an extraordinary testament to the depth of moral reform. In today’s world, which is marked by increasing polarization, violence, and injustice, the Seerah of the Prophet (PBUH) serves as an enduring source of practical guidance. This paper argues that applying the Prophet’s (PBUH) principles can help in fostering global peace, rebuilding fractured societies, and promoting reconciliation among divided communities
Annihilation: A Posthuman Paranoid Study of Ecophobic Anxieties in Weird Fiction
Full text linkThis study delves into the psychological intricacies of posthuman identity as represented in Jeff VanderMeer’s weird fiction novel Annihilation. Framed within a paranoid and ecophobic narrative world, the research investigates the psychological complexities associated with posthuman existence, including paranoia, claustrophobia, and schizophrenia. The central aim is to uncover the root causes of these anxieties by examining the interplay between human consciousness and the natural environment in a context where traditional notions of individuality and control are destabilized. Drawing on N. Katherine Hayles’s posthuman theories of "pattern and randomness" and "distributed cognitive consciousness," the paper reveals how the illusion of human sovereignty and detachment from ecological systems contributes to the rise of paranoid consciousness. The protagonist’s psychological unraveling in Annihilation serves as a metaphor for the broader human struggle with accepting the agency of non-human entities and ecological networks. As the novel blurs the boundaries between the self and the environment, the reader is confronted with a vision of subjectivity that is decentralized, unstable, and deeply interwoven with the natural world.The analysis suggests that posthuman anxieties stem from an epistemological crisis—the failure to integrate ecological consciousness into human self-perception. Through a close reading of the text, the study emphasizes the necessity for posthuman beings to renegotiate their understanding of agency, perception, and their ecological embeddedness. Ultimately, the findings urge a reevaluation of ecological relationships and call for a reimagining of human subjectivity that moves beyond anthropocentric dominance toward an ecologically attuned existence

A The Panopticon in Action: Analyzing the Impact of Societal Expectations on the Protagonist of Paulo Coelho\u27s "Veronika Decides to Die"
No full textHuman beings think of their actions and decisions to be an outcome of independent thinking and an expression of human agency, however, the reality is far too bitter. An individual\u27s ideas are directly or indirectly influenced and controlled by the accepted discourse in society, which is an act of conformity. Human beings consider their daily actions and ideas, the outcome of their independent thinking and acts of human agency. Driven by this tendency to conformity, individuals do not think of their actions as being influenced and manipulated by some other factor. Micheal Focault explored this dilemma in his book “Discipline and Punishment.” He explained the existence of such influencing structures that act as a gaze to direct others\u27 actions. Utilizing this concept propounded by Focault, this research paper explores the themes of normative conformity in Paulo Coelho\u27s "Veronika Decides to Die(1998)." It highlights how the protagonist of the novel attempts to revolt against the influencing power, however towards the end she also submits to the societal codes. The study aims to portray society as an institution while also describing the effects of normative conformity on Veronika in the novel. This paper shows that an individual follows a routine without realizing it; during this, his soul gets imprisoned, and doing the same act is considered normal. Society’s capacity to accept unconventional practices and ideas is essential for cultural growth
