It may stretch from a couple of months to years and might include the lodgings too. The madrassa education is imparted in Arabic and comprising the major part of teachings in native or regional language. Scholars join university for the purpose after finishing aalam course or other short madrassa courses with matriculation in school. The HEC recognized universities offer curriculum in English as medium and mode, with exception of a few. But the compulsory courses of functional English are also to get through, as they are credited and bear a good percentage and weightage in overall result. Besides, the degree is not awardable, unless the compulsory courses are cleared. The madrassa scholars are found to face problems in scoring upto passing percentage in English curriculum and courses. A number of studies have been conducted on attitudes towards English language, but there is almost no research on attitudes of university under graduates towards English language, particularly towards the students who have received some education in madrassas for various purposes. The present research focuses on the attitudes of under graduates towards English as a language. The results of the questionnaires were depicted in percentage. To gather more information, semi structured interviews were also conducted with about 10 participants. The interviews are qualitatively and thematically analyzed focusing on the language issues at madrassas. The findings reveal that the students agree that for achieving a university degree, English is essential and that their incapacity of acquiring English language had been the result of multiple social, political, cultural and economic issues, which involves the trends, mind sets and norms followed at madrassas and at home. |

It seems very much concerned about the development of man from all angles, social, political, economic, educational, intellectual, cultural, moral, and spiritual (17:23-37). The society it seeks to develop and set up on the earth ensures peace and harmony among various sections of the setting (60:4-8).

Abstract: |
The legislature in every country has the significant role of law making. However, being an Islamic Country, Pakistan has an Islamic legal system. According to the constitution of Pakistan no law can be made which is against the basic norms of Islam. To maintain the checks and balances on the legislative assembly regarding the promulgation of laws related to Islam through the amendment of the constitution of Pakistan, the Council of Islamic Ideology was formed. It is the council, which ensures the consistency and conformity of legislations with Sharia Law. It has an important role for the supremacy of Islam in Pakistan and has been frequently discussed in the recent past. This paper analyses the rationale behind the formation of this Council by looking into the history that dates back to the era of two-nation theory. Furthermore, the functioning and role of the council is to analyze critically from the perspective of the Constitution of Pakistan to evaluate its degree of effectiveness specially on the issues of the extent of its role as legislature in the presence of the parliament; it discusses some controversial verdicts issued by the Council. Furthermore, it throws light on the relevant provisions of law and its practice. |

Abstract: |
The city state of Medina got different phases of evolution within ten years’ short duration and became a great Islamic state of which ruling boundaries were expanded from the boundaries of Iraq and Syria in the north to Yemen and Hadhramaut in the south, and from the Red Sea in the west to the Persian Gulf and the State of Iran in the east, and practically Prophetical authority was stamped on the complete peninsula of Arab.1Although in the beginning, the administration of Islamic state was established on the tribal traditions of Arab, however, soon it was transformed into the territory and central government. Arabs not only lacked of the centralization but also they were deprived of the concept of central and national government; because it placed obstacles in the way of their tribal freedom. They could not accept “foreign” government. It was the Messenger’s political miracle that he transformed Arab tribes, who were against the centralization, into a single tight-knit community, Umma, and he established a central government in place of their countless political units; the whole Arab either the urban or the rural obeyed it. Its main but solitary reason was that now the base of society and government was “Islam or religion” in place of “tribe or blood”. Now the political ideology of Islamic government was Islam and only Islam.2In regard of administrative frame, the administration of the Prophet’s government has three levels: 1) Central 2) Provincial 3) Local On the local level of administration, the chiefs of tribes, the local administrators, the heralds of the Prophet’s (PBUH) city, the judges and the market officers etc were included |
