حضرت ابراہیم علیہ السلام کے والد سے مکالمہ میں ادب الاختلاف کے اصول

Hassan Ali, Dr Hafiz Muhammad Arshad Iqbal — Tue, 04 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0000

The discussions between Prophet Ibrahim (علیہ السلام) and his father serve as exemplary demonstrations of the highest principles of Adab al-Ikhtilaf (ethics of disagreement). These dialogues reflect the Prophet’s profound wisdom, compassion, and respect as he invited his father to the truth, establishing a standard of admirable conduct in the face of differences. Prophet Ibrahim (علیہ السلام) began the conversation with the affectionate phrase, "O my father," setting a tone of love and reverence from the outset. Rather than outrightly condemning his father’s beliefs, Prophet Ibrahim (علیہ السلام) used reasoned arguments and logical questions to present his perspective, seeking to persuade him through wisdom and understanding. He refrained from harshness or confrontation, instead maintaining patience and composure throughout the exchange. Even when his father rejected his message with intensity, Prophet Ibrahim (علیہ السلام) respectfully concluded the discussion and prayed for his father, demonstrating goodwill and affection despite the disagreement. These interactions underscore the fundamental principles of Adab al-Ikhtilaf: gentleness, wisdom, logical reasoning, patience, and the spirit of prayer. Prophet Ibrahim’s (علیہ السلام) approach provides timeless guidance for handling disagreements constructively, especially in contemporary contexts of interfaith and interـsect dialogues. His conduct imparts valuable lessons in fostering mutual understanding and respect, even amidst differing beliefs or perspectives.

Interference in personal life is a critical issue that affects individual privacy, social harmony, and ethical values. Islam strongly emphasizes the protection of personal dignity, as outlined in the Quran and Hadith, prohibiting actions such as spying, gossiping, and unwarranted intrusion. Legally, privacy is recognized as a fundamental right in many jurisdictions, including Pakistan, where laws such as the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act (PECA) criminalize unauthorized access to personal data. Ethical and social principles further stress the importance of maintaining personal boundaries to foster mutual respect and societal stability.

In the modern digital era, new challenges such as data breaches, cyberstalking, and unauthorized surveillance have intensified concerns about personal privacy. While certain interferences may be justified for security purposes, child protection, or crime prevention, excessive intrusion remains a violation of ethical and legal norms. This paper explores the religious, legal, and social dimensions of interference in personal life, emphasizing the need for well-defined boundaries to ensure a balanced and respectful society.

Keywords: Privacy, Islamic Perspective, Legal Framework, Social Ethics, Electronic Crimes, Human Dignity, Digital Privacy.

Jainism, is one of the most seasoned religions on the planet, began in India around the sixth century BCE. Established in the teachings of the Tirthankaras, especially Mahavira (599-527 BCE), it emphasizes peacefulness (Ahimsa), truth (Satya), non-possessiveness (Aparigraha), and self-restraint. Jainism rejects the concept of a creator and spotlights on self-freedom through spiritual purity and asceticism. Historically, Jainism evolved development with Buddhism and Hinduism, shaping India's spiritual and philosophical landscape. Separated into two fundamental factions — Digambara (sky-clad) and Svetambara (white-clad) — Jains follow thorough ethical and monastic customs. Their sacred texts, the Agamas, provide guidance on conduct, cosmology, and metaphysical beliefs.

Jains practice strict vegetarianism, avoid harm to all living beings, and emphasize truthfulness and self-control. Morally, Jainism has evolved with modern challenges while maintaining its core principles. This article explores Jainism's historical turn of events, significant beliefs, moral evolution, and the further philosophical insights that have permitted it to get by for centuries.

It is great contribution to comprehend the revealed book of Allah, such kind of narrations are called exegesis of holy Quran. There are few narrators whom adopt the

coherence aptitude in Quran, in a simple and brief way they had claimed that

qur’anic chapters as well as verses are mutually connected. This kind of contact is named as”NAZAME QURAN Obaidullah Sindhi, a renowned thinker and scholar of the Quran, particularly highlighting his contributions through his student, Molana Abdullah Laghari, who compiled his exegesis into Tafseer Al-Maqam Ul-Mehmood. Let's break down the key points you have listed:

Every Surah has a Basic Claim: According to Molana Obaidullah Sindhi, each surah (chapter) of the Quran has a central theme or claim, and all verses within that surah support or elaborate upon that core theme.
Tauheed as the Principal Commandment: One of the most fundamental teachings in the Quran is the concept of Tauheed — the oneness of God. Molana Sindhi emphasizes that this principle runs throughout the Quran, underscoring the monotheistic nature of Islamic belief.
Coherence as the Miracle of the Quran: Sindhi highlights the coherence of the Quran as its miracle. Despite being revealed over a span of 23 years and in various contexts, the Quran maintains a consistent message and inner harmony. This coherence is seen as one of the miraculous aspects of the Quran.
Connection of Surahs Like Pearls: Each surah is not isolated but is connected to others, forming a seamless narrative, like pearls strung together on a thread. This reflects the intricate and harmonious structure of the Quran.

These interpretations of the Quran offer deep insights into how the Quran is structured and its thematic emphasis.

مسائل حیات میں حکمت معاملات کی اہمیت:سیرت النبی صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم کی روشنی میں

Muhammad Ayaz, Dr. Nazir Ahmad Bhutta — Wed, 25 Jun 2025 00:00:00 +0000

One of the root causes of modern life’s challenges is the absence of wisdom in human dealings. No matter how much effort or resources are invested in addressing an issue, success often remains elusive if decisions lack wisdom and thoughtful consideration. True wisdom does not always manifest in speech, confrontation, or display of power, sometimes it lies in silence, retreat, or accepting another’s opinion for a greater good. The widespread intolerance, impatience, and social unrest in our society largely stem from a failure to apply wise conduct in interpersonal and communal affairs. Wisdom is a divine gift, as emphasized in the Qur'an: "He grants wisdom to whom He wills, and whoever is granted wisdom has certainly been given much good." (Al-Baqarah 2:269). This research article explores the importance of "wisdom in conduct" in resolving life’s complex issues by drawing insights from the Seerah of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) who is the finest embodiment of divine wisdom. His life serves as a comprehensive model for when to speak or remain silent, when to show strength or practice restraint, and when to advance or yield in the face of trials. By analyzing practical examples from the Prophetic tradition, this study highlights how applying the Prophet’s (PBUH) wisdom-based approach in personal, social, and strategic matters can lead to harmony, success, and lasting solutions to life’s pressing problems.

فری لانسنگ : شریعہ وقانون کے تناظر میں تجزیاتی مطالعہ

Abstract:

Freelancing has become an increasingly popular means of employment globally, and its importance continues to grow in Pakistan. From an Islamic legal perspective, freelancing is categorized under Ijarah, a contractual agreement where an individual provides services in return for a specified fee. For freelancing to be valid under Islamic law, all conditions of Ijara must be met, including a clear contract, specified remuneration, and defined scope of work. In cases where these conditions are satisfied, freelancing is permissible. Freelance platforms, such as Upwork and Fiverr, function as intermediaries or brokers, connecting freelancers with clients. These platforms charge a commission or service fee for facilitating transactions, which is akin to the role of a dallal (broker) in Islamic commercial law.

In Pakistan, the taxation of freelancers remains a significant issue. Despite the growing number of freelancers, there is no specific tax policy for them. However, freelancers who are registered with the Pakistan Software Export Board (PSEB) are required to pay 0.25% income tax. Freelancers who are not PSEB-registered are subject to a 1% tax on their income. Additionally, the use of VPNs (Virtual Private Networks) and payment gateways remains a critical concern, with no clear solution in place for secure transactions. The lack of a structured tax framework and regulatory oversight presents challenges for the freelance industry in Pakistan. In light of Islamic commercial principles and evolving tax policies, it is crucial to develop a framework that ensures fair treatment, transparency, and sustainability for freelancers in the country.

The purpose of this research is to inform people about the permissibility of earning money through freelancing from both an Islamic and legal perspective. It will address whether freelancing is allowed under Sharia law, the applicable taxes on freelancing income, and the legal regulations governing it.
