خواجہ غلام السیدین

خواجہ غلام السیدین
افسوس ہے ہماری بزم علم وادب کی پرانی شمعیں ایک ایک کرکے اٹھتی جا رہی ہیں۔چنانچہ گزشتہ ماہِ دسمبر کی ۱۹؍کوخواجہ غلام السیّدین بھی ہم سے جُدا ہوگئے۔ مرحوم مولانا حالیؔ کے نواسہ تھے اورحق یہ ہے کہ اس رشتہ کاجامہ مرحوم کے قامت موزوں پرایسا راست آیا کہ خاندانوں میں اس کی مثالیں کم ہی ملیں گی۔ وہ نوعمری میں علی گڑھ کے ٹریننگ کالج کے نامور پرنسپل ہوئے۔اس کے بعد رامپور ،کشمیر اور بمبئی میں حکومت کے مشیر تعلیم کے عہدہ پر فائز رہے۔آزادی کے بعد مرکزی وزارت تعلیم میں سکریٹری ہوئے۔اوراس عہدہ سے پنشن پائی۔لیکن سچ یہ ہے کہ یہ سب عہدے ان کے علمی و ادبی درجہ ومقام سے فروتر تھے۔ وہ انگریزی اور اردو دونوں زبانوں کے بلند پایہ ادیب اور مقرر تھے۔ پچاسوں مقالات کے علاوہ انگریزی اور اردو میں متعدد وقیع کتابیں ان کی یادگار ہیں۔ اگرچہ تعلیم اور اس کافلسفہ ان کاخاص موضوع تھا لیکن تاریخ اورمذہب سے بھی فطری لگاؤ تھا۔
بڑی بات یہ ہے کہ فکرو نظر کااعتدال و توازن بلا کا تھا۔وہ قدامت پرستوں میں ترقی پسند تھے اورترقی پسندوں میں قدامت پرست۔ تحریر و تقریر دونوں میں بڑا رچاؤ اور رکھ رکھاؤ تھا، اس بناپر ہر طبقہ میں قدرومنزلت کی نگاہ سے دیکھے جاتے تھے۔ان کو بین الاقوامی شہرت حاصل تھی، چنانچہ ملازمت سے سبکدوش ہونے کے بعد امریکہ، کناڈا اور یورپ میں بار بار وزٹنگ پروفیسر ہوکر گئے۔ آخرزمانہ میں اسلامیات کی طرف انہماک زیادہ ہوگیاتھا اوراس سلسلہ میں جب کبھی انہیں کوئی اشکال ہوتا راقم الحروف کو لکھتے تھے اور جواب سے خوش ہوتے تو اس کااظہار ایک مستقل خط کے ذریعہ کرتے تھے۔نہایت مہذب ،خوش طبع اور کریم النفس انسان تھے۔عمر ۶۷ کے لگ بھگ پائی ۔اﷲ تعالیٰ مغفرت و بخشش کی نعمتوں سے سرفراز فرمائے۔اب تہذیب اورشائستگی کے...

Arabian Peninsula was famous for its language expertise and linguistic expressions at the time of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ). The poets and language experts would spend most of their lives to attain excellence in Arabic language and literature. It was during such time that a man named Muhammad (ﷺ) emerged, whose linguistic expression was remarkable, accurate and amazing. He was also quite familiar with the dialects and accents of every tribe of Arabia. It was the surprising effect of this linguistic excellence that people tagged him with different titles such as Poet, Sorcerer, Kāhin (soothsayer), Majnūn (One possessed by Jinn), and insane man with insane message. Allah Almighty revealed Qur’ānic verses not only to answer such allegations but also entrusted him to present commentary of the Holy Qur’ān to the people who would called him illiterate.
