امیر احمد صدیقی

آہ جناب امیر احمد صدیقی
یہ خبر بھی بڑے افسوس کے ساتھ سنی جائے گی کہ ۲۳؍ مارچ کو مشہور ادبی ماہ نامہ ’’نیادور‘‘ لکھنو کے سابق مدیر جناب امیر احمد صدیقی نشاط گنج میں اپنی رہایش گاہ پر وفات پاگئے، ان کا آبائی وطن لکھنو کے مضافات میں اجریاوں تھا، وہیں تدفین ہوئی، ان کی عمر ۸۲ سال تھی۔
وہ ۱۹۴۸؁ء میں محکمہ اطلاعات و رابطہ عامہ اترپردیش سے اس وقت منسلک ہوئے تھے جب جناب علی جواد زیدی، صباح الدین عمر، فرحت اﷲ انصاری اور خورشید احمد صاحب اس سے وابستہ تھے، اب اس دور کی تنہا یہی یاد گار رہ گئے تھے، آخر وہ بھی چل بسے۔

کسی تقریب یا اردو اکیڈمی کے سمیناروں میں جاتا اور وہ موجود ہوتے تو بڑے تپاک سے ملتے، اپنے گھر بھی مدعو کرتے، ان کو معلوم ہوجاتا کہ میں آیا ہوں تو میری قیام گاہ کا پتہ لگا کر فون کرتے اور...

حکیم محمد اختر کا فروغ تصوف میں کردار

Sufism is the heart of Islam. It is attached with Islam as the human soul is woven within the body. Sufis have always been the center of Muslim society, especially; in the sub-continent, they have firmly imprinted their marks in every sphere of life. Various mystic traditions as Naqshbandi, Chishti, Qadri etc. Are commonly known in India and Pakistan. This study explores the great Sufi, Hakim Mohammad Akhtar, for his unprecedented services in the field of mystic practices, poetry and Islamic literature. In the initial part of the study, his family background and educational account have been described which show that not only he was a passionate follower of mystic legacy from an early age but a true stalwart of Islam. The historical account of Hakim Akhtar reveals that he was a staunch devotee of Molana Rome which resulted in the form of his famous book "Maarif-e-Masnawi". In the latter part of the study, his character and work are unveiled in a chronological order. As the follower of Sufi tradition, Hakim Akhtar was against personal glorification. Through this research study, some astonishing hidden aspects of his life have been discovered which will help his disciples and devotees to follow the path of their mentor perfectly.

Corrective Feedback in L2 Learning: A Comparative Effectiveness of Oral & Written Corrective Feedback Strategies for Urdu Efl Learners L2 Accuracy

The present study is designed to find the comparative effectiveness of oral & written corrective feedback strategies for Urdu EFL learners’ L2 Accuracy. In order to investigate the effectiveness of oral corrective feedback and written corrective feedback strategies, a quasi experimental research design with pre test, post test and delayed post test is adopted for this study. For this quasi experimental study, the sampled participants were not randomly assigned to different treatment groups; instead, five intact classes in three different higher secondary schools (composed a total of 113 students) were selected with four experimental groups (OCF-A group N =25, OCF-B group N= 21, WCF-C group N= 21, WCF-D group N = 23) and one control group (N=23). Pre test was conducted in the beginning. Participants in four groups were exposed to one of the CF treatment conditions i.e., oral recast, explicit OCF, indirect WCF and direct WCF but no CF was provided to control group. Every experimental group had seven CF episodes sessions with specified treatment conditions in a period of eight weeks. After that post test was conducted. Whereas, delayed post test was conducted after a period of two weeks. Further, attitudinal questionnaire as a research tool was used to find the attitudes and beliefs of the teachers about the effectiveness of corrective feedback strategies form a sample of 202 English teachers teaching at intermediate level. SPSS (version 20) was used to analyze the data. The findings of the study revealed that all the CF strategies have significant role to create L2 accuracy. However, direct corrective feedback strategy was most effective to create the L2 accuracy. Also, explicit CF strategies were found most effective to create L2 accuracy as compared to implicit CF strategies to create L2 accuracy. It was also examined that CF strategies were with differential effectiveness on different error categories.
