دل محمد دلشاد

دل محمد دلشاد (۱۸۰۰ء پ) گلی حکیماں محلہ سیداں (کوچہ بند) پسرور میں پیدا ہوئے۔ آپ اپنے فارسی اشعار میں ایک جگہ اس کی طرف اشارہ بھی کرتے ہیں :

یکے دو دست عجب تال آپس شش پہلو                        بشش جہات بہ پنجاب گو کہ ثانی آں است   

دلیل شادی دلشاد نام ایں شہراست                             کہ پر سرور طرب بخش عالم دل و جاں است  (۱۱)

آپ فارسی اور اردو کے بہترین شاعر ہونے کے علاوہ عالمِ دین بھی تھے۔ دلشاد کے کلام میں حد درجے کی پختگی اور سادگی عیاں ہے۔ وہ اپنی تشبیہات اور استعارے حالاتِ حاضرہ اور دیگر نشیب و فرازِ حیات سے اخذ کرتے ہیں۔ ان کے کلام میں بے حد جاذبیت اور شرینی موجزن ہے۔ اُن کا زیادہ کلام قصائد اور غزلیات پر مشتمل ہے۔

قاضی عطاء اﷲ اپنی کتاب ’’شعرائے پسرور‘‘ میں دلشاد کے بارے میں رقمطراز ہیں:

دل محمد دلشاد پسروری انیسویں صدی کے معروف فارسی اور اردو شاعر ہیں۔ آپ نے متداولہ علوم و فنون اغلباً سیالکوٹ جیسے علم و حکمت کے شہر سے حاصل کئے۔ منطق ‘ سلوک‘ اخلاق‘ فقہ اور شعری علم میں کمال حاصل کیا۔ (۱۲)

مذکورہ بالا علوم میں مہارت دلشاد کے ایک فارسی شعر سے واضح ہوتی ہے:

از علم شعر و منطق‘ فقہ و سلوک و اخلاص                    دارد تمام لیکن دلشاد زر نہ داد       (۱۳)

آپ کا زیادہ تر اردو کلام مفقود ہے۔ مختلف اردو تذکروں میں آپ کا کلام ملتا ہے۔ آپ کا فارسی دیوان ادارہ تحقیقاتِ پاکستان دانشگاہ پنجاب لاہور نے ۱۹۷۰ء میں شائع کیا۔ (۱۴) عشقِ مجازی‘ محبوب کی بے اعتنائی‘ بے وفائی‘ عشوہ وغمزہ وادا دلشاد کی اردو غزلوں کے موضوعات ہیں۔ حافظ محمود شیرانی نے اپنی تالیف ’’پنجاب میں اردو‘‘ میں دلشاد کی چند غزلیں نقل کی ہیں۔ ان اشعار میں دلشاد اپنے محبوب سے شکوہ کرتے نظر آتے ہیں۔ کلاسیکی اردو شاعری کے روایتی محبوب کی طرح...

أفكار أرنولد توينبي عن الحضارة الإسلامية ومدى تأثره برؤية ابن خلدون: دراسة وصفية و تحليلية

Ibn e Khaldun (1406 C.E.) has been an imminent scholar and well known for his work in the study of civilization. His vision regarding Civilization holds the significant place according to the philosophers of history. Arnold J. Toynbee (1975 C.E.) is one such prominent thinker who not only applauded the thoughts of Ibn e Khaldun but was influenced by Ibn e Khaldun’s views as it can be seen in Toynbee’s book: “A Study of History”. As a philosopher of history, he has much contribution in the field; He interlinks History with civilization. He presented a thoughtful book surrounding his civilizational vision; which explains the causes of world’s ups and downs. Although he presented a quality research about the division of the civilizations in the light of religion, many aspects of his work need to be reassessed. As per his understanding of world civilizations, he represents twenty-one civilizations, but with the passage of time, the number reduces and now only five are left in the contemporary epoch. According to him, religion has played significant role in the rise and fall of civilizations through their various stages. This research will highlight his thought about Islam through a comparison between Toynbee and Ibn e Khaldun’s Islamic civilizational thoughts. The study will also mention several problems in his approach to the Islamic Civilization. Furthermore, along with due importance of both scholars in the subject of history, their authoritative status will be stated. This research aims to discuss some misconceptions of the West that are based on Toynbee's understating of Islamic civilization and history. And, consequently, it intends to improve relations between people of the west and east.

Problems of Relapse into Illiteracy of Adult Female Neo-Literates in Punjab and Development of a Strategy for its Prevention

This study attempted to assess the retention in basic skills of literacy of neo- literates. It also explored the problems of relapse into illiteracy of adult female neo- literates; the possible causes behind the problem of relapse; and, development of a strategy for prevention of relapse into illiteracy. The study looked at neo-literates about three years after they had completed their literacy courses. Two main organisations launching programmes of adult literacy for females in Punjab were considered. The sample of the study involved 1099 respondents that were chosen through multi steps sampling techniques from 9 districts of the Punjab. The research questions were formulated to give a focus for the study. A mixed method research design (concurrent nested design) was applied in order to achieve the objectives of the study. A test was conducted to determine the retention level of neo-literates in reading, writing and numeracy skills. The researcher developed a questionnaire for teachers and supervisors of adult literacy programmes, an interview schedule for neo-literates, an interview schedule for high officials and a list of themes for Focus Group Discussions (FGDs). The views of teachers and supervisors were compared using a chi-square test of independence. The data of interview schedule of neo-literates were analyzed by categorizing, coding and were presented in tabular form with frequencies and percentages. The qualitative data of interview schedule of high official and FGDs were analyzed on the basis of individual statements. It was found that only 17% of neo-literate of National Commission for Human Development (NCHD) could perform better in reading skills, 13% in writing skills and 5% in numeracy skills of adult literacy program after two year of their study. In viiiDepartment of Literacy and Non-Formal Education Punjab (DLNEP) only 6.5% of neo-literate could perform better in reading, 7.5% in writing, and 5.8% in numeracy skills. The adult female neo-literates faced major problems in basic reading and even greater problems in writing and numeracy. Thus, problems included: reading and writing alphabets, combined words having three or more alphabets, sentences, signboards to locate places, applications and letters. Problems related to relapse in numeracy skills were: counting up to 100, solving sums of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, making home budget and teaching to students of classes 1 and 2. Thus, the teachers were inadequately trained and failed to observe the basic standards of courtesy and respect for the learners. The courses ran at inappropriate times, were too short and used inadequate accommodation. While not excessively difficult, the materials used were not related to the real needs of the learners who wished, in the main, for literacy skills in relation to income generating activities. There was a need for increased opportunities to practise the skills taught and follow up courses were required. It was suggested that literacy programmes may be designed as per demand and need of the learners, income generating component may be included and taught in an integrated way; post literacy programmes may be offered to consolidate and even strengthen the basic skills of literacy.
