گائوں کا رستہ

گائوں کا رستہ

میرے گائوں جاتا تھا جو
اُس رستے کے دونوں جانب
میٹھے آموں کے کچھ بوٹے
اونچے سایہ دار شجر بھی
کچھ شیشم کے ، کچھ پیپل کے
کچھ لیموں کے چھوٹے چھوٹے

بھینی بھینی خوشبو والے
کچھ پھولوں والے بوٹے بھی
کچھ کانٹوں والے بوٹے بھی

جیسے کیکر ، بیری ، آڑو
کچھ چمکیلے پتّوں والے
پتلی لمبی شاخوں والے
پر پھیلائے رستے اوپر
بادل چھائے رستے اوپر
گرمی میں سب کے سب گھر سے
باہر آئے رستے اوپر
ساجن ، متّر ، بیلی سارے
روز بلائے رستے اوپر

میں جب کالج آتا جاتا
چڑیوں کی چوں چوں سنتا تھا
کوئل کی کُو کُو سنتا تھا
بلبل بھی گانا گاتی تھی

ہجر کے ماروں کی خاطر جب
وصل کے گیت ہوا بنتی تھی
رنگ بہار کے اُس مٹی سے
ہر دل کی دھڑکن چنتی تھی
اک مدّت سے اک عرصے سے
چھوٹ گیا وہ رستہ مجھ سے
جو میرے گائوں جاتا تھا

العلامة محمد إقبال في عيون الأدباء العرب

Iqbāl is known as a revolutionary poet, and Islamic intellectual, a religious reformer, pioneer of Islamic awareness and a great leader of the Muslims of the sub-continent. He was introduced to the Arab world during the early part of 20th century and became popular after the translations of his work into Arabic. Scholars, thinkers, writers, and politicians of Arabia were very much influenced by his literary works. A number of books were written on him. Other scholars and Muslim thinkers study his works with keen interest even in the modern times. Iqbāl was paid rich tributes by Arab writers and thinkers for his unique wealth of literary works. In this article we present the views of Arabian writers about his literary status.

Development and Validation of Emotional Intelligence Model and Scale: A Case of Hypermarkets of Pakistan

Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is considered to be an important attribute to succeed at top level of management and is a distinguishing factor among top performing employees at workplace. However, the discrepancy in the elements of EQ models entails to develop an indigenous EQ measure that exists especially in the context of Pakistan’s workplace. Gap also points towards a holistic, multilevel and sequential model with a carefully validated scale. To address aforesaid shortcomings an indigenous model for EQ was proposed. A comprehensive theoretical analysis for EQ dimensions helped to identify the domain of new content. All crucial elements of existing EQ models were regrouped into three constructs of EA, EL and EM to present a logical underpinning. A scale (EQFS©1) was developed based on the hypothesized relationship of proposed model’s factor structures and linear relationships of the constructs of model. Operational definitions were generated and used to phrase scale items (candidate items). Subject matter experts’ opinion helped refine item thereby establishing Face and Content Validity. The raw measurement scale was pre-tested in a pilot study (Razzaq & Aftab, 2015) and based on the results the final scale was refined and floated to the managers of 4 hypermarkets generating 339 valid responses. Cronbach alpha was used for internal consistency of EQFS and was validated through Exploratory Factor Analysis and Confirmatory Factor Analysis all the hypothesized relations at first, second and third order factor analysis were accepted. A comprehensive strategy was adopted for Validity analysis for establishing content, criterion and construct validity. Model was tested through Structural Equational Modelling for EQFS© the mediating effect of EL with EA and EM was established. Except for the convergent validity with BarOn EQi scale the statistical significance of validities were established. The proposed Model disambiguate EI as exhaustibly as possible in a hierarchical and sequential manner to allow reasoning about their structure working towards an integrated framework of all the elements of influential EI models as suggested by practitioners. The proposed model and EQFS© will be a valuable tool for managers and academia and an important theoretical contribution to EQ literature.
