شفیق جونپوری

شفیق جونپوری
جناب شفیق جونپوری اُردو زبان کے نامور شاعر تھے اوراُن کاتعلق شعراء کے اُس گروہ سے تھا جوترقی پسند شاعری کے اُس دور طمطراق میں بھی فکروبیان کی پرانی قدروں کوسینہ سے لگاتے رہے، اورصرف یہی نہیں بلکہ اپنے فنی کمال و صنعت گری کے ذریعہ اُن کو مزید جلا بخشی اوران کی عزّت وآبرو قائم رکھی۔ کوئی شبہ نہیں کہ ان حضرات کی وفات ملک و قوم اورعلم وادب کے لیے بڑا حادثہ ہے،لیکن یہ دنیا یوں ہی چل رہی ہے اور چلتی رہے گی ۔ سدارہے نام اﷲ کا!
[جون ۱۹۶۳ء]

 

المقاصد عند الإمام الشاطبي

Scholars of the Usul -early and recent- have paid utmost importance to the Maqâsid al-Shariah or the Objectives of Shariah and tried to substantiate, associate and link them with its sources, Qur’an and Sunnah, then to derive from them the Legislator’s or the Shari‘s purpose, the revelation’s true purpose and how it benefits the creatures in terms of promoting what is in their interest and shunning away what is harmful. These objectives became the point of interest for the jurists and scholars who toiled to understand the texts and what they connoted and they continue to venture into its depths and extract its treasures. It becomes quite evident from their exegeses of Qur’an and the Prophetic Traditions and elucidations of the juristic principles and issues. Imam al-Shâtibī and Ibn ‘Ashoor are two such scholars in this field who studied the Objectives of Shariah and contributed to this discipline so greatly that they became reference points for those who came after them. The basic principles in the field that were inferred by them are still its pillars. The Objectives of Shariah are divided into four kinds with reference to their benefits: the necessities, needs, improvements and supplements. The necessities are further divided into protection of Deen, protection of self, of intellect, of possessions and of race among others. Prudence demands that all means should be employed to safeguard these necessities. Thus knowing the Objectives of Shariah and their promulgation among the masses is quite important for the society since it leads towards promotion of the beneficial and shunning away the harmful elements in it.

Median Values for Second-Trimester Maternal Serum Αlpha Fetoprotein and Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin Double Test at Aga Khan University Hospital-Nairobi

Aim To establish median values for second trimester maternal serum human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) and alpha fetoprotein (AFP) at Aga Khan University Hospital- Nairobi (AKUH-N) using the Abbott Micro particle Enzyme immunoassay. Specific objectives •To perform measurements of second trimester maternal serum human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) and alpha fetoprotein (AFP) and to establish observed and regressed median values. •To establish regression coefficients for regressed medians of AFP and HCG. •To compare these data with data obtained from other geographical regions. Methodology 330 serum samples from women of gestational ages 15 to 20 weeks were analyzed for AFP and HCG. Observed medians were calculated for the raw data. Regressed medians were calculated by using a first-degree logarithmic–linear fit of the raw data. Results Regressed medians for maternal serum markers AFP (IU/ml), HCG (IU/ml) for our population can be estimated with the equation Y = 10(A+BX) where A and B are intercept and slope, and X= gestational age in decimal weeks. The regression coefficients (SE) for AFP are A=0.5858 and B=0.0653; for HCG, A=5.453 and B= -0.0612. The two regressions are highly significant (p 2=0.8924 for AFP and R2=0.7194 for HCG. A comparison of the AKUH-N regressed medians calculated in this study with those from other geographical population showed that the HCG and AFP medians compared very well with those from other countrieswith a p value of 0.3785 and 0.4831 respectively. Conclusions AKUH-N marker medians versus gestational time are found to show a pattern that is similar to that in the literature. The log–linear equation is observed to give a good fit and can be suggested as a tool for calculating Multiple of Medians values for Kenyan laboratories that use Abbott Micro particle Enzyme immunoassay technology.
