قتل النفس المعصومة في ضوء السنة النبوية مقارنا بالقانون الباكستاني (دراسة مقارنة)

Dr.Hamid Ullah, Dr.Fazal Wadood — Mon, 24 Jun 2024 00:00:00 -0400

Two nationalist philosophies served as the foundation for Pakistan's creation. Muslims aspired to possess the area in which they could freely practice Islam. All people living in the Indian subcontinent were subject to English law before the creation of Pakistan. The main issue facing Pakistan after its formation was how to amend the existing legislation to conform to the teachings of Islamic Sharia. To accomplish the aforementioned goal, an objective decision was made stating that all existing laws should be based on Islamic principles and that no law should be in opposition to the teachings of the Qur'an and Sunnah.

The Council of Islamic Ideology and the Federal Shariah Court were founded to Islamize all relevant laws. Some laws were converted to Islam throughout the aforementioned process, and other laws—such as the one about retaliation and blood money were modified. Those who assert that the positive laws in place today are derived from Western law argue that further research is necessary to verify this, investigate and evaluate this legislation, and determine whether it aligns with the teachings of the Qur'an and the Sunnah.

As is well known, Pakistani law derives from the Prophet's Sunnah. The Pakistani Constitution states that a law shall be deemed invalid if it contradicts the Qur'an and the Sunnah, and the Prophet's Sunnah is known to have placed a high value on protecting the human soul. It needs specifics

Dr. Irfan Jafar, Muhammad Saad Dehlvi, Asia Parveen — Mon, 24 Jun 2024 00:00:00 -0400

Imām Ibn Abī Shaybah, belonging to the 2nd/3rd century AH, achieved a high standing in the field of ḥadīth. His unique style of Jarḥ wa-l-taʿdīl and specific terminology in his books of ḥadīth, particularly in Al-Muṣannaf, have earned him a special place in the literature of ḥadīth. His characteristics reflect valuable contributions to the art of ḥadīth. The knowledge of criticism (Naqd-e-Rijāl) is crucial in the field of Ulūm al-Hadīth, assessing the validity, reliability, and authenticity of ḥadīths by evaluating the narrators' wisdom, piety, honesty, and memory. Imām Ibn Abī Shaybah was a renowned figure in this field, establishing his distinctive approach to criticizing the narrators of ḥadīths of the Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him). This research paper aims to highlight the distinctive features of Imām Ibn Abī Shaybah's methodology in criticizing the narrators of ḥadīth. He used various terms to describe the status and level of narrators, adopting a moderate approach to character evaluation. He also assigned different meanings to terms used differently by other experts in Naqd-e-Rijāl. This article provides a comprehensive overview of Imām Ibn Abī Shaybah's contributions to the knowledge of Naqd-e-Rijāl.

کی دستیاب اقسام کاشرعی جائزہ(Rennet)پاکستان میں رینٹ

Dr. Irfan Ullah — Sun, 23 Jun 2024 00:00:00 -0400

Rennet is a dairy product made from the milk in the stomach of a fresh calf. The method of making that when the cow's calf drinks milk, it is slaughtered and the milk is extracted from its stomach. The milk extracted from the same stomach is called Rennet in English and "Infaha" in Arabic. If this rennet is taken from a makul-al Laham (Permissible) animal, then Imam Abu Hanifah and the Jamhur Ulema have a difference of opinion regarding its status. According to Imam Abu Hanifah, if the calf was slaughtered or died on its own, or if it was slaughtered by the People of the Book (Christian & Jews) or the Mug, then in any case the rennet taken from it will be halal, while according to the Jamhur, only the rennet taken from the slaughtered calf by a Muslim is permissible. But if this rennet is taken from a pig or other forbidden animal, then all the scholars agree on its haram status. There are numerous cheese products available in Pakistan, some of which are made in Pakistan and some are exported from outside the world. Some of the cheeses made in Pakistan are Halal certified while some are not Halal certified. Some of the products exported from the outside world are those from Muslim countries but they are also not Halal certified, while some are imported from non-Muslim countries and are not Halal certified. Such products cannot be used in any way as they are considered haram.

نبوی تعلیمات کی روشنی میں تعلیمی نظام کا جائزہ

Dr. Syed Bacha Agha, Layma Mehmood — Thu, 20 Jun 2024 00:00:00 -0400

Abstract

Humankind has been granted a special status due to its being vicegerent of Allah on earth for he has been entrusted with the responsibility to keep order in the world according to the directives of its Creator. Humans are guided by Prophets in history. Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) is the last Prophet of Allah, for the eternity and whole humanity. Islam is a complete code of life; education and training constituting its crux. Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) was greatly concerned and cognizant of education and training of his followers which is evident from multifarious events of his life. Major emphasis was laid on training coupled with education and both are, thus, inevitably interlocked with each other. It is clear that education was considered an assimilation of knowledge and training was taken as its reflection in daily life. The verses of the Holy Quran and sayings of the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) bear a perfect testimony to this aspect of foremost significance.

الأخطاء الدلالية في ترجمة القرآن الكريم ضمن ما يسمى بالتفسير الكابلي

Two eminent scholars of the sub-continent translated the Holy Quran into Urdu which was, in turn translated by some Pashtun scholars in Afghnistan into Pashto and was later on printed by King Fahd complex for the printing of the Holy Quran. These scholars have done their utmost to translate the Urdu translation into Pashto. Nevertheless there are a few mistakes which may be corrected through world Muslim league (Rabita Al Alam Al-Islami) in this way, it will be more acceptable. These mistakes are as follows:

Allah Subanahu Wa Taghla declares the positive remarks of the wives of the egyptian higentry in the following vesrse:

(وَقُلْنَ حَاشَ لِلّهِ مَا هَذَا بَشَرًا)

It has been translated into Pashto in the translation mentioned above “Allah is above the shortcoming that he has created a figure like this as well”. It apparently expresses that the creation of the figure of Usuf (ASA) constituted shortcoming. According to my suggession it will become as follows after correction. “Allah is far above the shortcoming that he cannot create a figure like Usuf (ASA)”. Similarly some of the Arabic words which have been integrated into Pashto and which have been used in the Holy Quran have been translated according to their Pashto meaning. Nahr and Anhar have been translated into وياله ويالے which mean watercourses other than rivers.

) (فَأَمَّا الْيَتِيمَ فَلَا تَقْهَرْ) has been translated as “Do not express your verbal anger to orphans” which must have been translated in Pashto into “ Do not press orphans ”. Sometimes expression of verbal anger to an orphan in necessary for his wellbeing. The prohibited is to usurp their rights and do injustic to them due to the lack of power. Rabita al Alam al Islami is requested to guide the King Fahd Complex for the printing of the Holy Quran to make the proposed correction in this respect. This may be done after appointing committee to approve the recommendations.

Mufti Muhammad Ayaz Durani, Dr Hashmat Ali Safi — Thu, 20 Jun 2024 00:00:00 -0400

Al-Qur'an-al-Kareem, the word of Allah the Almighty, serves as a comprehensive guide for humanity and Jinn, encompassing all aspects of life. However, not everyone possesses the mental capacity to fully comprehend its concise and compact message. Initially, it was the duty of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) to explain and elaborate on this divine message. Subsequently, specialized religious scholars have provided commentaries on the Qur'an throughout the ages.

Molana Husain Ali Alvani R.A. is a renowned religious scholar of our time, particularly celebrated for his contributions to Tafseer-e-Quran (commentary and interpretation of the Qur'an). His legacy has profoundly impacted the field of Quranic commentary, inspiring numerous scholars to adopt his interpretative style and explain the sciences the Qur'an. His work includes:

Philosophy of Quranic understanding
Coherence between Surahs and verses
Abstracts of Quranic Surahs
Abrogation and abrogated verses of the Qur'an
Summaries of verses
Distinctions of each Surah
Terminologies of Tafseer
Methodologies of Tafseer-e-Quran
Teaching the Qur'an to scholars and the public etc.

These contributions are highly relevant, important, and effective in promoting Quranic understanding. The efforts of Molana Husain Ali Alvani and his disciples in the field of Quranic studies over the last century are invaluable. Their work benefits those conducting further research in Quranic studies.

We have classified the available literature on the Tafseer approach of Molana Husain Ali and his disciples into 14 different categories and compiled lists of publications for each category. In this article, besides classifying the available literature, we explore Molana’s philosophy of Quranic understanding, the insights and outcomes of his interpretations, and the role of his disciples in propagating his thoughts on the subject.
