After independence, the principle and view of objectivity in biography came out with a new dimension, as a result of which, along with the movement and revolutionary trend, the invitational and reformist tendency in biography increased as well as the public tendency. The way in which the mentioned tendencies of biography after independence highlighted the purpose and importance of biography can be considered as an achievement of biography.In the research under study, its methods, styles and subjects have been evaluated by taking the award-winning English book fo Al-Sirat-ul-Nabawiyyah as a basis. The biography of Muhammad (صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم) is an art form. A biography consists of the events, situations, sayings and actions of any person. But biographers and other scholars have divided the work of biography into different terms by naming it as an art, as if the biographers have derived the art from the habits, actions and good sermons of the Prophet.

Human milk banks are institutions that collect, screen, process, and distribute donated human breast milk to infants in need, particularly premature or critically ill babies. In Pakistan, the establishment of human milk banks aims to provide a safe and reliable source of nourishment for infants whose mothers are unable to breastfeed due to health issues or other constraints. The potential benefits include improved infant health outcomes, reduced neonatal mortality, and support for mothers who may experience difficulty with breastfeeding. However, the establishment of human milk banks in Pakistan faces significant objections from scholars, particularly on religious and cultural grounds. Some concerns include the issues of milk kinship, where sharing breast milk creates familial bonds in Islamic law, and the potential for misuse or unethical practices. This abstract provides an overview of the benefits and challenges associated with establishing human milk banks in the Pakistani context, highlighting the need for careful consideration of religious and ethical perspectives.

In contemporary society, the practice of sending elderly parents to old age homes or evicting them as a burden has become increasingly common. This trend reflects a shift in attitudes where some individuals believe that by placing their parents in such institutions, they are absolved of their caregiving responsibilities. Old age homes are often perceived as necessary facilities, but they inadvertently suggest that the elderly are a burden to their families, highlighting a decline in traditional family structures. This phenomenon contrasts sharply with Islamic teachings, which emphasize the respect, care, and responsibility owed to parents. The Quran and Hadith outline explicit guidelines for honoring and supporting one’s parents, underscoring the familial obligations that transcend modern conveniences or societal pressures. The history of old age homes, particularly in Western contexts, reveals an evolution from almshouses to more structured facilities, driven by changing social and economic conditions. Initially, almshouses provided shelter for the poor and sick, but as societies industrialized and family dynamics shifted, the need for such institutions grew. The contemporary model of old age homes reflects these historical developments but raises significant challenges, including the erosion of familial bonds and the cultural implications of institutionalizing elder care. This paper aims to explore the concept of old age homes from an Islamic perspective, contrasting it with Western practices and historical developments. It seeks to highlight the importance of upholding Islamic principles regarding elder care and address the contemporary challenges faced by both individuals and societies in reconciling these differing approaches.

With the creation of the universe, Allah Almighty started a blessed series of Prophets for the spiritual training of people in it, and in different periods The Prophets and The Russell’s were engaged in the work of the people who paid special attention to the moral training of the people. Some people responded to their invitation and continued to achieve success in their lives, while others refused and put the shackles of failure around their necks. In the same way, there has been a section of people who have always tried to extinguish the light of God and have devoted all their efforts to prevent the message of God from reaching the people. In order to achieve this goal, they used various tactics and even started libeling The Prophets and The Russell’s in different ways. This article discusses the background of the whole scenario, when it started and when it accelerated and the underlying motives have also been clarified It also explains the causes of the blasphemy of The Prophets, the motives behind which these Holy Beings are being targeted and insults are being inflicted on them day after day. Finally, in order to prevent this, the sensitivity of the issue has been examined first and it has been clarified that such measures pose a serious threat to world peace and practical recommendations have been made to address them.

Islamic teachings emphasize the importance of marriage as a means to ensure the continuity of humanity and create a harmonious society. A key aspect of this is promoting “Safe Marriage”, which includes conducting medical examinations for prospective couples to prevent hereditary and contagious diseases. This practice helps safeguard the health and well-being of both partners and their future generations. The study uses a qualitative research methodology, including a review of Islamic text and teachings, to explore guidelines on safe marriage, the effects of such diseases on individuals and society, and the importance of preventive measures. It also highlights the significance of understanding and avoiding sexually transmitted diseases, such as HIV/AIDS and syphilis, which can have severe implications. Pre-marital tests are recommended to ensure a healthy, disease-free life, aligning with Islam’s goal of establishing a prosperous and protected society.

In the Islamic welfare state, Muslims and non-Muslims are equal in terms of rights. Just as the protection of the life, property, honor and dignity of a Muslim is the responsibility of the state, similarly, a non-Muslim citizen also has the right to protect his life, property, honor and dignity. The Islamic state not only allows all minorities to worship according to their faith, perform all rituals of marriage and death, but also protects them. Non-Muslim minorities have the legal right to live and do business in any part of the Islamic state. If someone harms their life, property, honor and dignity, the state is responsible for compensation.

برصغیر کے تفسیری ادب میں مطالعہ ادیان کی روایت: تفسیر نجوم الفرقان کا تحقیقی مطالعہ

Ali Raza, Dr. Muhammad Rizwan Mahmood — Sun, 15 Sep 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Among the scriptures of Semitic religions, the Holy Qur'an holds a unique place as the unaltered word of God, serving as a source of human salvation. Its inimitability and universality elevate it to the highest rank among religious texts. To truly comprehend its message and divine guidance, one must be deeply familiar with its content. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) not only conveyed the Qur'an but also provided a detailed explanation, as mentioned in the verse:

وَأَنزَلْنَا إِلَيْكَ الذِّكْرَ لِتُبَيِّنَ لِلنَّاسِ مَا نُزِّلَ إِلَيْهِمْ وَلَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ النحل :44

“And We sent down to you (O Muhammad) the message that you may explain clearly to the people what was sent down to them that they may reflect.” (Al-Nahl: 44)

This has led to the development of Qur'anic exegesis (Tafsir al-Qur'ān), an essential field for understanding divine content. Over time, the Qur'an has been interpreted in various languages, including Urdu, where Nujum-ul-Furqān stands out as a significant contribution. Written by ‘Allama Abdul-Razzaq Bhutrālwī (b.1947), this tafsir is expected to span 22 volumes, with 11 already published, covering the Qur'an's early chapters. Bhutrālwī’s expertise in Arabic literature, jurisprudence, and Islamic philosophy shines through, making his work a valuable resource for students and scholars alike. His approach to addressing Islamic teachings, theological issues, and sectarian differences sets Nujum-ul-Furqān apart from other tafsirs. The thesis discusses this work across five chapters, covering the author's life, methodology, sources, theological points, and a comparative analysis with contemporary Urdu commentaries such as Tafhim-ul-Qur'an and Ma'arif-ul-Qur'an.

Arnold J. Toynbee is regarded as one of the most significant scholars of the modern era. Hailing from a distinguished family with a long-standing reputation in European intellectual circles, his heritage includes notable figures such as his uncle, Arnold Toynbee, a renowned economist and social reformer. This uncle authored numerous works and rendered invaluable public services, leading to the establishment of a hall in London named in his honor. Another uncle, Paget Toynbee, gained recognition in 1932 for his specialization in Dante's studies and translated "The Divine Comedy." While a family's academic legacy may not inherently validate one's own contributions, for Arnold J. Toynbee, it serves as a point of pride. He has elevated the family's scholarly heritage to new heights through his intellectual prowess. In this analytical study, we explore Toynbee's insights into the components of Islamic civilization and its distinctive features. We delve into how his theories articulate the essential characteristics that define Islamic civilization, emphasizing its adaptability, resilience, and contributions to global culture. By examining these elements through Toynbee's lens, we can gain a deeper understanding of the significance of Islamic civilization in the broader context of world history. This study aims to not only highlight the intrinsic values of Islamic civilization but also to position them within the framework of Toynbee's civilizational analysis.

عائلی مسئلہ (منگیترکو دیکھنا )کے بارے میں ابن تیمیہؒ اور جمہور فقہاء کےاختلاف کا تقابلی جائزہ

Mamoona Islam , Dr.Feroz u din Shah — Fri, 10 May 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Marriage is the only means of legal union between a man and a woman for the purpose of human reproduction, and it is a matter established by every religion and nation of the world. There is guidance in Islam about looking at a woman before marriage. According to Imam Ibn Taymiyyah, the fiancee cannot be seen in any case before marriage. While the Islamic scholars have denied it and have gone towards its justification. There are many arguments in the sources and basic books of Islamic teachings which have clearly supported the justification of this practice. And it seems logically correct that until the woman and the man at least look at each other and are satisfied, this process remains unfinished. A comparison has been made and the opinions of both of them have been resolved in the light of Shariah statements. Nowadays, it is very important to talk about this issue so that practice of uncivilized ways while arranging marriages in families and lawlessness ends and hence the series of legal marriages can start in the society within nations.

بیسویں صدی میں علم حدیث کی تدوین وتحقیق ، منتخب مناہج کا تحقیقی وتقابلی جائزہ

The 20th century witnessed significant advancements in the compilation and research of Hadith. This era saw notable progress in the collection, organization, and publication of Hadith, fueled by technological and scholarly developments. Shaikh Shuaib Ar’naoot,Allama Nasir ul Deen Albani, Allama Ahmad Shakir and Zia ur Rahman Azmi's research seminaries hold an important place in Islamic academic history. Because they devoted their lives to preserving the intellectual capital of hadiths and conveying it to the ummah in its true form. There are some similarities and some differences in the research of these four scholars. Shaikh Shuaib Ar’naoot adopted modernity in the research of hadiths and researched deeply on both the Isnaad and the Matn of hadiths. Allama Ahmad Shakir's minhaj was based on traditional principles, but he examined hadiths keeping in mind the requirements of modern times. The important aspect of his services was that he combined modern scholarly principles while maintaining ancient principles. Allama Nasir ul Deen Al-Albaani's research was based on a classification of hadiths and he took an unusually cautious approach to raise the standard of health (Seht) of hadiths. He emphasized that only those hadiths that meet the standards of health should be accepted. Zia ur Rahman Azmi tried to clarify the health of hadiths as well as their meanings. Which led them to emerge as a balanced and robust research method.

"الفتنہ " کا فقہی و معنوی اطلاق تفسیر قرطبی کی روشنی میں

Dr Javaria Hassan, Huma Bukhari — Sun, 25 Aug 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Fitna is a small word to say, but it is very deep in terms of effects. In the Holy Quran, the meaning of fitna has been used in many meanings. Recognizing the meanings is also a big test. One of the most important discussions in the Holy Qur'an is the discussion of sedition, the meaning of which is to know about its philosophy and to gain knowledge and to know how to succeed in this sedition is no less than a blessing for a human being. The effects of temptation on man are also for the training of man, because temptation is a Divine Sunnah and is a general thing, that is, it includes all human beings and has a special effect on human happiness, doubt and punishment. Generally, "Al-Fitna" is applied in the sense of test and trial. But it is not necessary that this test is only in evil, rather Allah tests a person in both evil and good, to what extent a person keeps his self under control and walks on the right path. In the Holy Qur'an, the word "fitnah" has been applied in many meanings, the commentators have explained these meanings in their interpretations. So that all people will be aware of the temptation of Khairushar. In this paper, Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Ahmad in his Tafsir al-Qurtubi, what is meant by the word Al-Fitna will be researched.
