علامہ راشد الخیری

علامہ راشد الخیری
ہم نے یہ خبر بھی دلی رنج و افسوس سے سنی کہ ۳؍ فروری کو مولانا راشد الخیری نے اس دار فانی کو خیر باد کہا اور ہندوستان کا طبقۂ نسواں اپنے ایک بڑے معلم اور اپنے حقوق کے ایک بڑے محافظ سے، اور ہندوستانی زبان اپنے ایک بڑے محسن کی خدمات سے ہمیشہ کے لئے محروم ہوگئی، مرحوم شمس العلماء ڈپٹی نذیر احمد کے عزیز قریب اور طرزِ تحریر میں ابتداً ان کے پیرو تھے، مرحوم نے اپنی ادبی زندگی رسالہ مخزن کی ادارت سے وابستہ ہوکر شروع کی، پھر ۲۷ سال گزرے کہ عصمت کے نام سے ایک زنانہ رسالہ جاری کیا، اور ساری عمر طبقہ نسواں میں بیداری پھیلانے اور انہیں تعلیم و تربیت کے زیور سے آراستہ کرنے میں گزاردی، ہندوستان کے طبقۂ نسواں کو بیدار کرنے کی خدمت دو بزرگوں شمس العلماء مولوی ممتاز علی (تہذیب نسواں) اور مولانا راشد الخیری (عصمت) نے انجام دی افسوس کہ یہ دونوں ۶ ماہ کے اندر ہم سے جدا ہوگئے، مولانا راشد الخیری کی تحریک نسواں کا یہ امتیازی وصف تھا کہ وہ حقوق نسواں کے سب سے بڑے حامی کے ساتھ شریعت اسلامی کی حدود کا پاس نگاہ میں رکھتے تھے اور حقوق نسواں کے حامیوں کے اس گروہ کے سب سے بڑے مخالف تھے جو عورتوں کو مغرب کی کورانہ تقلید کی طرف لے جانے والا ہے، وہ ہندوستانی زبان کے مشہور ادیب، اور صاحب طرز انشا پرداز تھے، انہیں لال قلعہ کی پاکیزہ زبان لکھنے پر قدرت حاصل تھی، وہ انسانی درد و مصیبت اور معاشرتی زندگی کا خاکہ کھینچنے میں کمال رکھتے تھے، ان کی صبح زندگی و شام زندگی، ڈپٹی نذیر احمد کی توبۃ النصوح وغیرہ کے پہلو میں رکھے جانے کے قابل ہیں، اور بلاشبہ ان کی کتابیں پڑھ کر آنسوؤں کا ضبط کرلینا دشوار ہے،...

Academic Research on Non- Muslim Religious Minorities Content analysis of the Research papers from a Pakistani Perspective

This study aims to examine research papers on religious minorities to determine their issues, rights, and privileges in Pakistan. In a civilized society, everyone has basic rights regardless of race, color, or religion. Everyone has cultural, political, religious, and constitutional freedom in a peaceful society. In general, it is perceived that, in Pakistan, followers of other religions than Islam are not given their essential rights, especially regarding their religious rights. To secure minority participation in decision-making, they may reserve seats in administration and parliament, organize national and local minority consultative organizations, and provide cultural or territorial autonomy. In the context of Pakistan, the school curriculum and state policies are viewed as the primary causes of prejudice against minorities. However, numerous other elements may contribute to the establishment of attitudes about them. Therefore, in order to reveal and appropriately address the issue, this study will use qualitative research methodology with an analytical research approach. Rights, issues, and problems of minorities have been a matter of concern to various scholars, states, and societies throughout history and in the contemporary era too. The study suggests that there should be made awareness at the grassroots level and the removal of obstacles to the greater good of humanity.

Bioaccumulation of Selected Toxic Heavy Metals Along Rivers of Malakand Division and River Kabul, Pakistan

Heavy metals are well-known environmental pollutants due to their serious toxicity, persistence in the environment and bioaccumulative nature. A variety of natural and anthropogenic sources are the main reason of their release into the environment. Contamination of freshwater ecosystems such as rivers with toxic heavy metals is an environmental problem of public health concern. Being persistent elements, heavy metals are accumulated in the environment and are the major cause to contaminate the food chains. Accumulation of potentially toxic heavy metals in freshwater fish causes a potential health threat to their consumers including humans. It is very important to assess and monitor the concentrations of potentially toxic heavy metals in riverine waters and sediments as well as in the resident biota. The present research work aimed to assess the bioaccumulation of four selected heavy metals i.e., Cr, Ni, Cd and Pb in freshwater fish, rice and tobacco along three rivers in Malakand Division and River Kabul, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. The different aciddigested environmental samples were analyzed for specified heavy metals (Cr, Ni, Cd and Pb) by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Potential risk to the health of the fish consumers was assessed in terms of estimated weekly intake (EWI) values of the heavy metals and compared with their respective provisional tolerable weekly intake (PTWI) values set by international organizations. Generally, metal concentrations in muscles of the fish from the studied rivers were comparable. Generally, clear trends could not be observed for metal concentrations at different sites of the rivers when going from upstream to downstream. Regarding metal accumulation in fish muscles, generally, inter-species differences were statistically not significant, most probably due to more variance within samples. Generally, metal concentrations were higher in metabolically active tissues such as gills and liver compared to skin and muscles. Based on the current study, consumption of the analyzed freshwater fish species from the rivers was generally safe in terms of potential risk from Cd and Pb but the observed Ni accumulation may pose a potential health risk to regular/excessive fish consumers. Thus, efforts should be made to minimize heavy metal contamination in these freshwater ecosystems in order to safeguard the aquatic fauna and the health of the fish consumers.
