غزل

ظلمت سے الجھ پڑنا دامن کو جلا لینا

آ یا نہیں لوگوں کو جگنو سے دعا لینا

 

دکھ درد نکلتا ہے دکھ درد سنانے سے

تصویر کو کیا کرنا تصویر سے کیا لینا

 

بالی ترے کانوں کی جھومر ترے ماتھے کا

فتنوں کو ہوا دینا محشر سا اٹھا لینا

 

یہ رفض ہمارا تھا یہ رفض ہمارا ہے

یا عشق مدد کرنا یا عشق بچا لینا

 

دنیا کی پہنچ اتنی دنیا کا ہنر اتنا

رستوں کو جدا کرنا دیوار اٹھا لینا

 

ارمان رہا دل میں حسرت ہی رہی دل میں

اس پیکر ۔مرجاں کو سینے سے لگا لینا

 

اک عمر گزاری ہے قاسم اسی الجھن میں

دروازہ کھلا رکھنا زنجیر گرا لینا

جنگ، جہاد اور قتل

An elaborate endeavor in studying world religions would glaringly uncover the fact that most of the religions have enacted rules to follow, pertinent to daily livelihood. Such are the set of rules that the followers of the religion must follow. These rules very much include the rules about edibles. The food is something upon which not only human sustenance rests but it also keeps the human soul alive. For the same very reason we find religious and scientific prohibitions on things that are harmful for humans and if consumed evil takes the better of man’s heart, bringing upon him moral redundancy and sinister way of life. Such people are deprived of peace and piety. They ultimately not only suffer unbearable individual loss but also become a burden onto the society, country and nation

Exploring the Possibilities of Using Poetry for Enhancing Language Development of Secondary School Students

This small-scale action research explored the possibilities of using poetry for teaching English as second language. The study was based on the rationale that literature can be used as a resource for enhancing language development of students in our context. The assumptions were that poetry would stimulate students' interest and would create opportunities of using and learning language. The study was conducted in a secondary classroom of a private English medium school in Karachi, Pakistan. The action research studied the existing teaching practices of English language as well as the problems faced by teachers and students in teaching and learning English and students' language needs. The action was implemented in two cycles consisting of reconnaissance, planning, implementation, and reflection. Planning and implementation was in response to emerging needs and issues from each action. The data was collected through interviews, discussions with teacher and students and was analyzed after each reflection and action. The study reports some possible strategies of teaching poetry for language development. It also discusses some key findings such as that students' interest in poetry can be stimulated by providing relevant and appropriate poems and by enabling students to articulate their own understandings. Furthermore, it provides multiple opportunities to the students for enhance their language skills and meaningful contexts for using the language. The study concludes by presenting my key learning as a teacher, teacher educator and an action researcher. It ends by suggesting some recommendations for schools and further research.
