ذرا نم ہو تو یہ مٹی بڑی زرخیز ہے ساقی

ذرا نم ہو تو یہ مٹی بڑی زرخیز ہے ساقی
نحمدہ ونصلی علی رسولہ الکریم امّا بعد فاعوذ بااللہ من الشیطن الرجیم
بسم اللہ الرحمن الرحیم
معززصدر اور میرے ہم مکتب ساتھیو!آج مجھے جس موضوع پر لب کشائی کرنی ہے وہ ہے::’’ذرا نم ہو تو یہ مٹی بڑی زرخیز ہے ساقی‘‘
ارشاد ِباری تعالیٰ ہے:۔فالھمھا فجورھا و تقوھا
ہرنفس میں گناہ اور تقوی کا الہام کر دیا گیا
جنابِ صدر!
حضرت اقبال رحمۃ اللہ علیہ سمجھتے تھے کہ خالق کائنات نے انسان کوفطرتِ سلیم پر پیدا فرمایا ہے اور ہر انسان کی فطرت میں خیر اور شرکا مادہ رکھ دیا گیا ہے اور جب انسان اللہ تعالیٰ کے بتائے ہوئے راستے پرعمل پیرا ہو کر نیکی کی طرف گامزن ہوتا ہے تو وہ فرشتوں سے بھی آگے نکل جاتا ہے اور اسے انسانیت کی معراج نصیب ہوتی ہے مگر جب انسان ابلیس کے بتائے ہوئے راستے پر چلتا ہے تو جہالت و گمراہی اس کا مقدر بن جاتی ہے اپنے نفسِ امارہ کی پیروی کرتے ہوئے وہ ذلت کی پستیوں میں نیچے اتر جاتا ہے لیکن انسان کے دل میں اُنس اور محبت کا جذ بہ فلاح اور خیر کا عنصر ہمیشہ موجود رہتا ہے جو کسی بھی وقت اس کے من میں زور پکڑ لیتا ہے اور انسان اپنے اصل مقصد کی طرف واپس پلٹ آتا ہے اسی لیے اقبال امید رکھتے ہیں کہ میری قوم کے نوجوان اپنے مقصدِ حیات سے ہٹ گئے ہیں۔ غیروں کی اندھی تقلید میں اپنا جو ہرحقیقی کھو چکے ہیں۔ تن آسانی اور من فراموشی نے ان کا قومی وقار چھین لیا ہے یقینا یہ ایک دن اپنے ماضی اور اسلاف کے کارناموں کی طرف واپس پلٹیں گے اور اپنا کھویا ہوا مقام حاصل کریں گے۔ اسی لیے اقبال رحمۃ اللہ علیہ فرماتے ہیں۔

Interpretation of the Prophetic Way of Preaching

Calling to the path of Allah has never been an easy task. It was in fact direct opposition of the prominent personalities of that time. The holy Prophet r conducted preaching (Daa’wah) in such a way that it is not monotonous for the listeners. The Prophet r did not make them sit for long and hear lengthy speeches. Preaching (Daa’wah) in today’s world is not as successful and effective mainly because it is not carried out the way as prescribed and practiced by the holy Prophet r. It is pertinent to mention here that way of preaching adopted by Prophet Muhammad r was the same as it had been the method of all Prophets before Him r. However, it can truly be said that Prophet Muhammad r developed these qualities to the extreme heights. In this article, prophetic approach of preaching was discussed in a way that may guide the preachers of modern times in efficient as well effective way. These virtues were discussed as different traits in the personality of a preacher.

Adaption of Technology Acceptance Model for Technology Enhanced Learning: A Meta-Model for Application in Heis

With the rapid development of information and communication technologies, academic explorations into factors influencing acceptance of technology systems have been actively pursued. Thereby, many variants of the technology acceptance model were proposed and validated in various contexts involving a widespread application of the model, specifically in studying acceptance and use of e-learning systems. In the context of e-learning adoption, commonly used external factors of Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) are “self-efficacy”, “subjective norm”, “enjoyment”, “computer anxiety” and “experience”. Previous research on e-learning technologies have further explored the effect of these external factors on two primary constructs of TAM which are “perceived ease of use” and “perceived usefulness”. Although engagement of students with e-learning systems has revealed improvement in learning, the role of previously used external factors like computer anxiety, experience and selfefficacy needs to be re-examined for the modern digital native learners who have grown up in sophisticated technological environment. Therefore, factors like “results demonstrability”, “perception of external control”, “system accessibility” and “attitude” considered relevant to digital learners and were identified and used in the proposed model. These additional factors augmented the previously identified factors like “subjective norm”, “enjoyment” and “self-efficacy” for studying their influence on students’ behavioral intention to utilize e-learning systems. This research utilizes a cross-sectional design and data was collected from 437 undergraduate students from three academic programs using a self-administered questionnaire. Structural equation modeling technique was used to test the interrelationships between the constructs of proposed model. Mediating effects of model variables and moderating effects of gender, experience and type of institution on behavioral intention to use e-learning systems were also studied. The primary contribution of this research is an extended technology acceptance model based upon external factors relevant to digital learners, which identifies key predictors of student’s perceived ease of use and student’s perceived usefulness of e-learning systems. The research findings have significant theoretical and practical significance for researchers and academic practitioners. The proposed model will be useful in predicting behavioral intention to use e-learning systems by digital learners and will generate additional future research in other contexts and cultures with an aim to design and adopt e-learning systems that seek wide acceptance among students in universities.
