۴۔ زہر رگوں میں اتارنا پڑتا ہے

زہر رگوں میںاتارنا پڑتا ہے

تپتے سورج کی کرنوں کے نوکیلے پتھر

فگار دن کے برہنہ سر پر برس رہے تھے

ریل کی پٹری کو کاٹتی ہوئی کہنہ سڑک پر

انبوہِ آدم رواں دواں

قریب ہی پُل کے نیچے بیٹھے دھوئیں میں پریشاں حال

اپنے وجود کو تلاشتے چند انسان

موت کی آغوش میں پلتے ہوئے

دشت نما چہروں پر بے خوابی کی جھریاں

بد قسمتی کی دھول میں اٹے ہوئے بال

بوسیدہ پیراہن سے جھانکتا استخواں

آنکھوں میں خمارِ آشفتگی

جس میں ٹھکرائے جانے کا غمِ جاوداں پنہاں

 اس ہجومِ آشفتگاں سے ایک ژولیدہ مو

اپنی رگوں میں زہر اتارنے لگتا ہے

 زندگی بے اختیار چیخنے لگتی ہے

اے دشمنِ جاں یہ کیا۔۔۔؟

آشفتہ نوا گویا ہوا

سن اے زندگی!

’’خدا نے فقط تجھے عطا کر کے

بدلے میں مجھ سے کیا کچھ نہیں چھینا

اُس کے بے اماں جہان میں

رشتے بکتے ہیں

جذبات کا بیوپار ہوتا ہے

محبت بھیک مانگتی، تلوے چاٹتی ہے

جھوٹ مسکراتا ہے

سچ دریوزہ گر ہے

ہر کوئی نفرت کا خریدار ہے

اپنے بیگانے ہیں

یہ سب دیکھنے اور سہنے کے لیے

زہر رگوں میں اتارنا پڑتا ہے‘‘

فقه الوسطية عند الصحابة في العلاقات الإجتماعية

Moderation is the most distinguishing feature of Islām, which reigns all the matters and fields of the Muslim life. The Muslim nation is titled as the moderate one in the Qur’ān. It is therefore required that along with the Qur’ān and Sunnah, moderation should reflect through Islāmic jurisprudence, too, in the individual as well as the collective matters of Muslims. The author of this present study traces the roots of moderation in the collective matters of the first community of Muslims, i. E., the companions of the Prophet (SAW), who directly received the understanding of the Islām from the Prophet (SAW), therefore, they are the true examples to follow. The companions would consider the circumstances and situations to issue their jurisprudential verdicts. This is very much evident, especially, from the verdicts of the second caliph ‘Umar Ibn Khaṭṭāb. The companions would observe the principle of moderation to generate love and reverence for the religion Islām. If they had stuck stringently to mere rules and regulations, they would not have succeeded in the spread of Islām in the world. The author shows through their examples that how essential and significant it is to observe the principle of moderation while compiling jurisprudence and how to avoid exorbitance and stringency. To observe moderation needs a deep understanding of the true spirit of religion and great skills to practice it which the companions did have being the direct disciples of the Prophet (SAW). We need to follow their example without yielding to the whims of irreligious or secular modernity.

Maritime Affairs in Pakistans Exclusive Economic Zone in Indian Ocean

The development and well being of the human race is very closely interlinked with the seas, which take up about 70% of the earth''s surface area. Owing to shrinking of resources on land most of the maritime nations have fully exploited what the seas offer as a medium of transportation and the rich resources that they hide within their bowels but few are still lacking behind on the pretext of various challenges being faced out at sea. Now the technology is at a stage where even the tidal and wave energy can be harnessed for power generation. This immense potential of the seas makes them a valuable asset for any nation. Pakistan is also fortunate to have a more than 1000 Km sea frontage and has benefited from it but the extent of derived advantage is far less than what it can be. Total area of Pakistan''s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) is 240,000 Sq km. Whereas, with the approval of Continental Shelf by UN Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf (CLCS) on 13 March 2015, yet another area of 50000 Sq km has been added which makes a total of 290,000 Sq km which is larger than the combined land area of Sindh and KPK provinces of Pakistan and can be rightly regarded as the maritime province of the country. Nevertheless Pakistan has yet to tap its rich resources to the optimum advantage. It would not be wrong to say that relevant stake holders are not even fully aware of the resources that can be exploited and the available figures are only estimations which cannot be used for effective planning for management and exploitation of these resources. Conscientious effort has been been made in this dissertation to find out the reasons why Optimum exploitation of maritime resources in Pakistan is not being done, due to lack of protection of resources and various challenges out at sea or some other reasons. By pitching the maritime resources with certain challenges being faced at Pakistan’s EEZ in the Indian Ocean, it was analyzed that in fact it is lack of ‘will’ at all levels of the government, private and public stake holders. Nevertheless, detailed estimation through survey and mapping of living and non-living resources needs to be undertaken in systematic manners with complete harmony at all level using one window operation. Most of the challenges are already being thwart with the help of International community out at sea in the Indian Ocean. A National Maritime Authority needs to be created at Federal level with the portfolio of maritime affairs presently being handled by various ministries, divisions and departments at Provincial and Federal level. Pakistan Navy must be equipped adequately to be a credible force for protection of sovereignty, Maritime Security, SLOCs and to act as a potent force in Pakistan’s EEZ.
