It was also the official language of most Muslim dynasties in the Indian subcontinent, including the Mughal Empire, the Delhi Sultanate, and the Sikh Empire. Persian was the language of culture and education in several Muslim courts in South Asia. During its rule in India, Brithish government banned persian as official language and promoted Enlgish, Urdu and sanskrit. But in this century, the holy city of Multan was the cradle of knowledge and literature and Hafiz Jamal Multani, Munshi Ghulam Hasan Shaheed Multani, Muhammad Musa Qureshi and Khwaja Khuda Bakhsh Multani were compiling their books in Persian language. One of these names. It belongs to Khwaja Ubaidullah Multani, who became famous as Peer Khasewale. Khwaja Ubaidullah Multani was born in Multan in 1211 AH and died in Multan in 1305 AH. You were fluent in Arabic, Persian, Hindi and Urdu. You have compiled over a dozen books on various topics, most of which are still out of print and in manuscript form. A well-known manuscript of Khwaja Ubaidullah Multani is "Masnavi Ubaidiya Kalan". The subject of this Masnavi is tawheed, unity of existence and knowledge and guidance. It consists of 831 verses.

According to Iqbal, the claim of love for the Prophet ﷺ and following the Prophet ﷺ are obligatory. It is essential to follow his footsteps for real salvation. And this is impossible without deep love and affection for Rasulullah SAW. Following him without love for the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) is just a pretense and like a paper flower that has no fragrance and no lasting color. No one can be a perfect believer or achieve true success without the love of the Messenger of Allah.In the light of the decrees of the Prophet ﷺ, Iqbal also understands that the love of the Prophet ﷺ requires that you have true and perfect love with your Ahl al-Bayt as well. From the study of Kalam-e-Iqbal, it is revealed that perfection in following the Qur'an and the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) is not possible without following and loving the Ahl al-Bayt. In Kalam-i-Iqbal, all the Ahl al-Bayt are mentioned loudly. The hardships endured by the Ahl al-Bayt (may Allah be pleased with them) for the propagation of the clear religion in unfavorable circumstances, and the great devotion and will to the Holy Prophet, human history is unable to provide an example of this. The Holy Qur'an has put a strong stamp on character, truthfulness, selflessness, justice and benevolence, piety and fear of God. In the current research paper, Manaqib Ahl al-Bayt has been described in the light of Kalam-e-Iqbal.</em></p> Muneer Hussain, Prof. Dr. Shahid Iqbal Kamran Copyright (c) 2024 AL-ILM-Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 http://www.alilmjournal-gcwus.com/index.php/al-ilm/article/view/268 Mon, 30 Jan 2023 00:00:00 +0000 پاکستانی تعلیمی اداروں میں تدریس و تحقیقِ سیرت کی ممکنہ جہات http://www.alilmjournal-gcwus.com/index.php/al-ilm/article/view/266 <p>While Seerat-un-Nabi (SAW) has been discussed in various perspectives, studies are scarce regarding The Seerah in the light of modern knowledge.

It is an unchangeable, ever living miracle of God, who Himself is the Guardian of this&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; last heavenly revealed book. Allah has revealed it according to the need of time and proper occasion. It is a paragon of rhyme and rhythm, eloquence and articulacy, symphony and symmetry.&nbsp; In the beginning, it was compiled under the auspicious guidance of Muhammad (S.A.W) the last prophet of Allah in its best order and sequence both by Surah and Verse. Whenever the Qur'anic verse was revealed, the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) would call on Ibn Wahi to write down that verse at its proper place in surah. And then the Holy Prophet (S.A.W.) used to recite the Holy Quran in congregational prayer. Although the holy Quran was written down in complete form but not in the form of book. Later on in the reign of Sahaba (R.A) the Holy Quran was preserved in book form. Today we have the same authentic copy of this holy book, issued by Sabaha (R.A.) Now there is a difference of opinion among the scholars regarding the symmetrical pattern of Holy Qur'an that we have today. On group holds the view that the whole Quran is in its best form and order which reflects its true harmony through verse and surah.&nbsp; While the other group is of the view that the holy Quran has different stylistic patterns which do not reflect harmony among their thematic,&nbsp;&nbsp; contextual and rhetorical aspects of verses and surahs. The bottom line of the article lies with the Symphonic Array of the Quran.</em></p> Muhammad Basharat , Bushra Iqbal , Dr.Iftikhar Haider Malik Copyright (c) 2024 AL-ILM-Journal https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 http://www.alilmjournal-gcwus.com/index.php/al-ilm/article/view/280 Sat, 30 Dec 2023 00:00:00 +0000 GEO-POLITICS OF SĪRAH: AN ANALYTICAL STUDY OF SELECTED LITERATURE http://www.alilmjournal-gcwus.com/index.php/al-ilm/article/view/281 <table width="468"> <tbody> <tr> <td width="468"> <p><em>The Muslim writers have assimilated discussions on modern day political concepts like sphere of influence, common wealth, buffer zone.

The most important thing that distinguished the prophetic biography became that it was governed by non-human standards, with revelation as its source and Allah. No one denies the performance and written documentation that the Prophet’s biography has received, to the utmost degree of documentation and precision. On the one who filled the world with his fragrant biography and on his companions who walked in his path and followed in his footsteps, so it was necessary for the Islamic nation to study his biography, follow his approach, and follow his path. Based on this principle, some universities approved a basic subject as a university requirement through which the student studies the biography of the Prophet Muhammad since his birth.
