The Natural Laws Manifest Divine Programming

In the Name of Allah---the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. The Natural Laws Manifest Divine Programming Introduction Modern science is built upon one of the most remarkable assumptions about reality: the universe is intelligible because it operates according to consistent laws . Gravity behaves according to recognizable mathematical relationships; electromagnetic phenomena follow precise rules; matter interacts according to reproducible physical and chemical principles; biological organisms function through extraordinarily complex systems; and celestial bodies move according to predictable patterns. Science does not create these laws. It discovers, describes, and mathematically formulates the regularities already present in nature. This raises a deeper philosophical question: Why does the universe possess laws at all? Why is nature orderly, measurable, mathematically intelligible, and sufficiently stable for rational beings to discover its structure? From the Islamic perspective, t...

ڈیفنس بجٹ اورپاک فوج کے تجارتی ادارے

از قلم ساجد محمود انصاری

پاک فوج افرادی قوت کے اعتبار سے دنیا کی پانچویں بڑی فوج ہے۔ پاک فوج میں خدمات سرانجام دینے والے خوش نصیبوں کی تعداد ایک ملین (دس لاکھ) کے قریب ہے، ان یک ملین فوجیوں کی تنخواہیں رہائش، خوراک، یونیفارم، تربیت، آمدو رفت کے اخراجات اور ریٹائرڈ فوجیوں کے لیے پنشن اور مراعات کے لیے ہر سال ایک خطیر رقم کی ضرورت پڑتی ہے جس کا ایک بڑا حصہ ڈیفنس بجٹ کی صورت میں قومی بجٹ سے فراہم کیا جاتا ہے۔

ذیل میں دنیا کے ان15 سرِ فہرست (Top Fifteen) ملکوں کے نام دئیے گئے ہیں جو اپنی قومی فوج پر باقی ممالک کے مقابلے میں سب سے زیادہ خرچ کرتے ہیں۔ ان 15ممالک میں امریکہ، چین، روس، بھارت، سعودی عرب، برطانیہ، جرمنی، یوکرائن، فرانس، جاپان اور جنوبی کوریا علی الترتیب سرِ فہرست ہیں۔

آپ نے ملاحظہ فرمایا کہ افرادی قوت کے اعتبار سے دنیا کی پانچویں بڑی فوج ہونے کے باوجود پاکستان اپنی قومی فوج پر سب سے زیادہ خرچ کرنے والے 15 ممالک کی فہرست میں شامل نہیں۔ حال آن کہ امریکی فوج کی کل افرادی قوت 1.3 ملین (دس لاکھ تیس ہزار) ہے جبکہ وہ اپنی فوج پر سب سے زیادہ خرچ کرنے والے ممالک میں سرِ فہرست ہے۔ چلیں ہم اپنا موازنہ امریکہ کے ساتھ نہیں کرتے کہ وہ دنیا کی سپرپاور ہے اور اسے دنیا پر اپنا تسلط قائم رکھنے کے لیے پوری دنیا میں اپنی افواج کو حرکت دینا پڑتی ہے۔ ہمارا دشمن بھارت جس کی فوج کی کل افرادی قوت 1.4 ملین (دس لاکھ چالیس ہزار) ہے نے 2023 میں اپنی فوج پر 84 بلین ڈالر خرچ کیے جبکہ پاکستان کا 2024۔2025 کا ڈیفنس بجٹ کل 7 بلین ڈالر (2122 بلین روپے) ہے جو کہ بھارت کے ڈیفنس بجٹ کا بارہواں حصہ بنتا ہے۔ پھر بھی حرامخور گلہ کرتے ہیں کہ سارا بجٹ فوج کھاجاتی ہے۔اب اتنے کم بجٹ کے ساتھ پاک فوج نے دشمنوں کا مقابلہ کرنا ہے۔ اسلحہ بنانا ہے، فوجیوں کی تنخواہیں اور پنشن ادا کرنی ہے اور ان کی رہائش، خوراک اور لباس کا انتظام کرنا ہے۔ شہدا کی فیمیلییز کی کفالت بھی کرنا ہے۔

یہ وہ حقائق ہیں جن کو نظر انداز کرکے دشمن کے کچھ ایجنٹ پاک فوج کے ان تجارتی اداروں پر انگلی اٹھاتے ہیں جو مذکورہ بالا مقاصد کے لیے قائم کیے گئے ہیں۔ پاک فوج کو اپنے اخراجات پورے کرنے کے لیے ان تجارتی اداروں پر انحصار کرنا پڑتا ہے۔

The Qur’anic Chronology of Creation

By Sajid Mahmood Ansari

Exploring the Qur’anic Chronology of Creation reveals a profound perspective on how our universe transformed from a single point into the complex world we live in today. While modern science focuses on the "how," the Qur’an describes creation in meaningful stages that highlight the purpose behind the heavens and the earth. This layered journey moves from the initial act of creation to the detailed shaping of the stars, planets, and life, finally culminating in the appearance of human beings. In this article, we break down these stages to show how the Qur’an presents a beautifully coherent and purposeful vision of the universe. 1. Chronology of Creation Allah Almighty says in Surah Fussilat: 9.  قُلْ أَئِنَّكُمْ لَتَكْفُرُونَ بِالَّذِي خَلَقَ الْأَرْضَ فِي يَوْمَيْنِ وَتَجْعَلُونَ لَهُۥ أَندَادًا ۚ ذَٰلِكَ رَبُّ الْعَالَمِينَ 10.  وَجَعَلَ فِيهَا رَوَاسِيَ مِنْ فَوْقِهَا وَبَارَكَ فِيهَا وَقَدَّرَ فِيهَا أَقْوَاتَهَا فِي أَرْبَعَةِ أَيَّامٍ سَوَىٰ لِلسَّائِلِينَ 11.  ثُمَ...

The Intelligent Universe and Panpsychism

By Sajid Mahmood Ansari
In the Name of Allah---the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. The concept of an  Intelligent Universe  suggests that the cosmos is not just a passive, mechanical system but an evolving, self-organizing entity capable of processing information, much like a vast neural network. Proponents of this idea argue that the universe exhibits intelligence through its finely tuned physical laws, complex cosmic web structures, and adaptive feedback mechanisms, much like a living organism. Some theories, such as  panpsychism  and  biocentrism , propose that consciousness is a fundamental aspect of reality, implying that intelligence is embedded at all levels of the cosmos. Whether through quantum information theory, self-regulating cosmic processes, or the mysterious interconnectedness of space-time, the notion of an Intelligent Universe challenges our understanding of existence, hinting at a deeper order beyond mere randomness. The Qur’an and the Intelligent Universe Allah ...

Lebanon: The Politics of Demography

By Sajid Mahmood Ansari
Image
In the Name of Allah---the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. Lebanon's demographic structure is essential for understanding its politics—and especially the growing sense among many Lebanese Sunnis that they have become politically weaker and economically marginalized despite being one of the country's largest communities . Lebanon's total population is approximately 5.9 million people in 2026 . 2025: 5,849,421 — World Bank estimate. ( World Bank Open Data ) 2026 (mid-year UN estimate): approximately 5,897,467 , or 5.90 million . ( Worldometer ) So, for our demographic analysis, ~5.9 million is the appropriate current figure. But there is an important distinction This 5.9 million is the total resident population , not the number of Lebanese citizens. It includes non-citizens, including a substantial Syrian refugee population and Palestinians. That distinction is crucial when discussing Lebanon's sectarian demographics . Lebanon has not conducted an official populati...

The Kingdom of Saba: Arabia's Greatest Ancient Civilization

By Sajid Mahmood Ansari
Image
In the Name of Allah---the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. The Kingdom of Saba: Arabia's Greatest Ancient Civilization Introduction The Kingdom of Saba (biblical Sheba ; Arabic: سبأ ) was one of the most prosperous and influential civilizations of the ancient Near East. Centered in present-day Yemen , with its capital at Ma'rib , Saba flourished through its mastery of irrigation, international commerce, monumental architecture, and centralized administration. For centuries, it controlled the lucrative trade in frankincense and myrrh, linking southern Arabia with the Mediterranean, Mesopotamia, East Africa, and the Indian Ocean. While the Kingdom of Saba is well known through the Biblical account of the Queen of Sheba and the Qur'anic narratives in Surahs Saba' and Al-Naml , archaeology has firmly established that Saba was a historical kingdom whose achievements rivaled those of many contemporary civilizations. Thousands of inscriptions, magnificent temples, extens...
