امین الدین شجاع الدین
خبر آئی کہ مولانا امین الدین شجاع الدین بھی اپنے خالق و مالک حقیقی سے جاملے، یقین نہ آنے کے چند لمحوں کے بعد پھر اسی یقین کا اقرار کرنا پڑا کہ ہم سب اﷲ ہی کے ہیں تو واپس اسی کے جوار رحمت میں جانا ہی ہے۔
وہ ابھی ایسے نہ تھے کہ نام کے ساتھ مرحوم لکھا جائے، خدا جانے کتنی صلاحیتیں تھیں جو اب بھی ظہور کی منتظر تھیں، ان کا نام اچانک تعمیر حیات اور بانگ حرا کے صفحات پر دلکش، پر اثر اور البیلی تحریروں کے ساتھ سامنے آیا، ان کے اداریے نظر شوق کو متوجہ کرتے ، مقبولیت تھی کہ ان کے اداریوں کا ایک مجموعہ نقوش فکرو عمل کے نام سے مرتب ہوا، بھیونڈی کی زمین سے ندوہ کے آسمان تک کا سفر، تیز رفتار بھی رہا اور روشن بھی، کیا خبر تھی کہ یہ خوش درخشیدگی، شعلہ مستعجل کی مبتدا تھی، آخری ملاقات کب ہوئی یاد نہیں، لیکن ان کا تبسم اور محبت کی آنچ سے گداز ہاتھوں کا گرم جوش مصافحہ ضرور یاد ہے، وفیاتی مضامین کا مجموعہ’’ملنے کے نہیں نایاب ہیں ہمــ‘‘ عنایت کیا، ابھی معارف میں اس کے ذکر کی فرصت بھی نہیں ملی کہ وہ خود اس کتاب کا عنوان بن گئے، حضرت مولانا سید ابوالحسن علی ندویؒ سے سالک رام تک خدا جانے دل کی دنیا میں آ باد کیسے کیسے مکینوں کا نوحہ کہنے والے نگری نگری پھیرا لگاکر وہ اپنے سفر کی منزل پہنچ گئے، پس کارواں سخنوری کے ایسے نقوش قائم کرتے ہوئے جن کی چمک میں خون جگر کی آفرینش ہے، یہ نقوش تابند ہ رہیں گے اور کبھی کبھی دبے الفاظ میں یہ بھی کہہ جائیں گے کہ
کیا تیرا بگڑتا جو نہ مرتا کوئی دن اور
ندوہ کے ساتھ دارالمصنفین کے...
Islam has been a subject of great importance for Muslim and Non-Muslim Scholars. Countless numbers of researchers have written on the Quran, Hadith, Fiqh and Islamic History. Among these scholars Dr. Mahmood Ahmad Ghazi (1950-2010) is renowned for his contribution to Islamic social sciences. He was equally well versed in the classical, as well as, modern scholarly trends in the study of Islam. He worked in various academic, administrative and judicial positions during his life including as professor, Director Da’wah Academy, Director Shariah Academy, Vice President Academics and then President of International Islamic University, Islamabad and was finally elevated in 2010 as a judge at Federal Shariah Court of Pakistan where he served till the end of his life. He was a prolific writer and authored nearly thirty works of high academic value in different Islamic social sciences including Economics, law and Islamic education in Arabic, English and Urdu languages. He attended a large number of conferences across the globe to present his research papers.
Despite significant investments in information technology in developing nations like Pakistan over recent decades, concern still exists over the extent to which such expenditures have produced the intended benefits. At least part of this concern is based around the issue of how information technology and information systems are accepted by the intended users. The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) provides us with the fundamental frame work to analyse the acceptance of Information Systems from a behavioural perspective. In this study, we intend to enhance and classify the variables of the existing TAM to account for their importance so that organizations and institutions can rely on this classification to focus on the most important variables for quicker and smooth adoption of technology. Especially in the context of developing countries’ dynamics, the technology acceptance variables will be explored. A classification of the technology acceptance variables has been developed. This is the first of its kind classification based on the random Fuzzy (Burney, Ali, & Mahmood, 2012) Forest model, which in comparison with other fuzzy techniques has given better results for classification. To analyse the results, different statistical methods have been used. The study also involves extensive field study as well as data collection and data-mining techniques to analyse and identify multi-dimensional patterns in data. Measures of social influence on/of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) will also be identified and a suitable Technology Implementation Model will also be developed. For this purpose, the case of smart watch dissemination in Pakistan will be used and appropriate model to enhance user acceptance of smart watch technology will be proposed. This thesis focuses on the acceptance and adoption of smartwatches, specifically in Pakistan. While there are several research studies on the subject of wearable technology, many do not emphasize a specific piece of wearable technology like the smartwatch. Either that or they are focused on the utilization of these wearable products where fitness tracking, healthcare, biometric sensors and other such applications are discussed. It is important that an innovation be understood from the user’s perspective, especially in its Page 3 of 155 early stages when knowledge of consumer requirements is insufficient. Smartwatch studies should be audience driven instead of technology driven which is the situation in most cases. Because the innovation is made for the user therefore should revolve around not what the technology is capable of but if it fulfils the needs and requirements of the users. Hence, this quantitative research aims to fill that gap and identify the factors that influence people’s intention to use a smartwatch along with the discussion of wearable and smart technology, its history, its advantages and disadvantages, different technology acceptance and adoption frameworks as well as their comparison. In addition to that, a model is proposed along with the respective hypotheses to examine the adoption and acceptance of smartwatches and for validation analyses conducted on the data gathered. A classification of the technology acceptance variables has been developed. This is the first of its kind classification based on the random Fuzzy Forest model, which in comparison with other fuzzy techniques has given better results for classification.
