آصف علی
افسوس ہے پچھلے چند گھنٹوں کے فصل سے ہندوستان کی عموماًاوردہلی کی خصوصاً دونامور ہستیوں نے اس دنیا کوخیرآباد کہا۔آصف علی مرحوم نے وطن سے بہت دور دیارغیر میں جان جان آفریں کوسپرد کی لیکن وطن کی خاک نے یہ کشش دکھائی کہ ان کی نعش ہوائی جہاز کے ذریعہ سوئٹزرلینڈ سے دہلی پہنچی اورشفیق الرحمن صاحب قدوائی اوروہ دونوں یہیں دفن ہوئے۔ سیاسی مسلک کے علاوہ دلّی کی خاص وضع داری اورشرافت، خوش اخلاقی اوروسعت ظرف وعالی حوصلگی کے اعتبار سے دونوں میں بہت کچھ مشابہت ومماثلت تھی تاہم ہر ایک کی چند خصوصیات تھیں جن کے باعث دونوں اپنا اپنا الگ مقام رکھتے تھے۔آصف صاحب نہایت ذہین انگریزی اور اردو دونوں زبانوں کے خوش بیان مقرر اور ادیب تھے اوراردو زبان کے خوش گوشاعر بھی تھے، چنانچہ انجمن ترقی اردو ہند کے سہ ماہی رسالہ’ اردو‘کے ابتدائی دور میں ان کی بعض نظمیں شایع ہوئی تھیں۔ اردو طرز تحریر میں ان پر ٹیگوریت غالب تھی جس کاثبوت ان کی کتاب’ پرچھائیں‘ سے ملتاہے ۔تحریک آزادی کے زمانہ میں ان کاشمار صف اوّل کے کانگریسیوں میں رہا۔ آزادی حاصل ہونے کے بعد وہ امریکہ میں ہندوستان کے سفیر رہے پھر اڑیسہ کے گورنر بنادیے گئے اوراب آخر میں سوئٹزرلینڈمیں اپنے ملک کی سفارت کی خدمات انجام دے رہے تھے کہ اسی عہدہ پرداعی اجل کولبیک کہا ـع
حق مغفرت کرے عجب آزاد مرد تھا

الشمامۃ العنبریۃ من مولد خیر البریۃ از نواب صدیق حسن کے خصائص و بدیعیات کا تنقیدی جائزہ

Nawab Siddique Hassan Khan is renowned author of Sub-Continent and placed a well-known award for his writings. This article describes the methodology and characteristics of Al Shmamat ul Anbriyah min maulid e khair ul briyah. This book is basically a seerat study and contains on many new but unfamiliar sources of Seerah. So, he had a great addition on seerat by writing this book. It was in ancient Urdu, hardly to understand its text. The author made this possible in his research work and he also examined its methodology. In this article a managed and detailed description of this book is presented. However, we found some unique errors of references and textual study of seerah. Mostly he used a random method during the writing of this book. Author found many features of this book, whom doesn’t exist in other seerat books like this. Still there are many points, which decrease its importance and creates negative opinion regarding his seerat writing, as some times he included third party research and paid its credit to himself and many places he added irrelevant narrations to his subject.

Relationship of Capital Structure and Financial Sustainability of Microfinance Banks of Pakistan

This study examines the relationship of capital structure and financial sustainability of Microfinance Banks of Pakistan by using the panel data of 9 years from 2009 to 2014. The long-term stability and survival of an institution with its own financial resources, without donations and grants, depends on several factors. The capital structure is an important determinant of the financial sustainability of institutions. Moreover, microfinance characteristics such as management inefficiency, loan intensity, portfolio at risk, size of company, breadth of outreach and deposit mobilization also have a vital effect on financial sustainability. This study also focuses on these important characteristics of MFBs as a determinant of financial sustainability. Due to the availability of limited literature of financial sustainability and capital structure of microfinance institutions particularly as in case of Pakistan, this study has been conducted as an effort to find an empirical investigation about this relationship. Pooled Ordinary least squares (OLX) method for regression is applied after using the Hausman test and Breusch and Pagan Lagrangian test. Auto correlation, Multi co-linearity and Heteroscedasticity of panel data have been also checked. The study found a significant negative relation between borrowing of assets and financial sustainability. However, deposits which are used as a short term debt in the capital structure of MFBs and leverage have no significant effect on financial sustainability. Moreover, size of company, loan intensity and breadth of outreach has a positive significant effect on financial sustainability. However, management inefficiency has negatively affected financial sustainability. Moreover, deposit mobilization and Portfolio at risk have not found any significant effect on financial sustainability.
