He is known in the whole world for his beautiful mystic poetry. Much work has been done upon his life history, however, there were some contradictions in the work of different researches. Many things needed clarification and many aspects of his life were not researched upon fully. Sultan Bahoo is the leader of all Saints and Sultan of Knowers of Allah. His highest caliber demands that his life history and struggle to spread the true religion should be saved in proper and complete form. Moreover, his lovers and devotees want to know each and every detail about him. So, his spiritual descendant and the current Spiritual Leader of his Sarwari Qadri Order1 Sultan-ul-Ashiqeen Khadim Sultan-ul-Faqr Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman proceeded the research upon his life. He has not only clarified all the contradictions by comparing the work of earlier researchers and then giving the actual facts with proofs and proper references but has also unveiled many aspects of the life of Sultan Bahoo which were hidden yet. His literary work which is in Urdu and titled as “Sultan Bahoo” has been translated here in English for those who are not acquainted with Urdu. Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman has done a lot more work upon the life and teachings of Sultan Bahoo. His book Shams-ul- Fuqara is an encyclopedia of the teachings of Sultan Bahoo and contains the essence of all the books of Sultan Bahoo. Its abridged English version is titled as “Sultan Bahoo-The Life and Teachings”. His another book “Mujtaba Akhir Zamani” is the detailed account of the life histories of Sultan Bahoo and his 1 Sarwari Qadri is the spiritual Order of Hazrat Sultan Bahoo which starts from Prophet Mohammad and reaches him through Hazrat Shaikh Abdul Qadir Jilani. 8 spiritual descendants who are the Spiritual Leaders of his Sarwari Qadri Order after him. It has also been translated in English by the title “The Spiritual Guides of Sarwari Qadri Order”. In addition to these books, he has launched websites www.sultan-bahoo.com and www.sultan-ul-arifeen.com which are solely about the life and teachings of Sultan Bahoo. Many other websites have boon launched under his supervision all of which are based upon the teachings of Sultan Bahoo. His monthly magazine “Sultan-ul-Faqr” also preaches the teachings of Sultan Bahoo. Hence, it can be rightly proclaimed that Sultan Mohammad Najib-ur-Rehman is the true spiritual descendant of Sultan Bahoo who is working hard to promote his teachings and his Sarwari Qadri Order. Although, lives of all great men contain inspiration and guide the masses on the path of success, but the life of a Saint bears light of guidance on The Divine Path which is the path of salvation and eternal success. So, the biography of Sultan Bahoo should be read with devotion, not only to enhance knowledge about him but also to seek the path of righteousness from him. Mrs. Ambreen Moghees Sarwari Qadri Lahore, Pakistan M.A Mass Communication February-2016 University of The Punjab 9 SULTAN-UL-ARIFEEN HAZRAT SAKHI SULTAN BAHOO Sultan-ul-Faqr Sultan-ul-Arifeen Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo, the Beloved Friend of Allah and the leader of the mystics, is stationed at the highest spiritual level of Faqeer2 Malik-ul-Mulki3 and Murshid Kamil Akmal Jamay Noor-ul-Huda4. He declares: I am the perfect and accomplished Murshid Jamay Noor-ul- Huda and possess the rank of Malik-ul-Mulki Faqeer. (Noor-ul- Huda Kalan) Faqeer Malik-ul-Mulki is the highest and ultimate rank of Fuqara5, while Murshid Kamil Akmal Jamay Noor-ul-Huda is the most superior among those who perform the duty of guiding the Seekers of Allah on The Divine Path and adorn the Throne of Divine Guidance and Persuasion. These are the most elevated levels of Insan-e-Kamil6 and there is no spiritual level higher than these. Sultan Bahoo is the Sultan of Arifeen7. He is the one who re- organized the Qadri Order by the title of Sarwari Qadri Order and provided complete knowledge and information about this mystic way through his books for the guidance of Seekers of Allah and travellers of The Divine Path, thus making it easy for them. A Kamil Faqeer is the manifestation and proof of existence of Allah for the creation. He possesses all The Divine Attributes and manifests the Noor of Allah with which he enlightens the society. 2 Mystic who is accomplished in Faqr. Faqr is the spiritual way which leads to The Divine Vision and ultimate Closeness of Allah. 3 Faqeer who is the Master of Universe 4 A perfect Spiritual Guide possessing The Divine Light of Guidance 5 Plural of Faqeer 6 The Divine Universal Man 7 Plural of Arif. Arif is the mystic who recognizes Allah. 10 His Khanqah8 is the centre where the souls of the Seekers of Allah as well as the common people are purgated, their innerselves are sanctified and hearts are enlivened and brightened. Khanqah of a perfect Faqeer has always been the fountain head of The Divine Knowledge which enlightens the whole world. Common people are away from Allah and deprived from His Vision because they are trapped in the love of this world and worldly pleasures which become a veil between them and Allah. At the Khanqah of a perfect Faqeer, this veil is removed by erasing the love of world from the hearts of the people. Hence, their dark hearts are turned into pellucid mirrors in which they can have Vision of Allah and are blessed with the Closeness of Allah. The Seekers of Allah find the nourishment and strength for their souls from the sacred company of a perfect Faqeer. The Faqeer Malik-ul-Mulki and Murshid Kamil Akmal Jamay Noor-ul-Huda Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo rendered unprecedented services for the betterment of the masses and for guiding Seekers of Allah on The Divine Path. He travelled throughout his life to spread the beneficence of Love and Marifat9 of Allah among common people. He himself was an institution of love and Marifat of Allah and blessed people with it wherever he went. His spiritual beneficence is continued even after his death from his shrine. The Theophanies and Divine Light emit from his shrine and bless the visitors. He has also left a great and sacred asset in the form of books, mystic poetry and his Sarwari Qadri Order which will keep guiding the Seekers of Allah till the Doomsday. 8 A place where Sufis reside to gain inward purity and spiritual elevation under the supervision of a Perfect Murshid. 9 Mystic knowledge of Allah which is acquired only after having the Vision and Closeness of Allah. 11 GENEOLOGICAL CHAIN OF SULTAN BAHOO Sultan-ul-Arifeen Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo belonged to the „Awan‟ tribe whose genealogical tree goes back to Hazrat Ali Razi Allah Anhu. Awans are Hazrat Ali‟s progeny from wives other than Hazrat Fatima Razi Allah Anha. In the preface of all his books Hazrat Sakhi Sultan Bahoo introduces himself as „Awan‟ In his book Noor-ul-Huda Kalan, he says: “The writer of this book, Sarwari Qadri Faqeer Bahoo Fana-Fi-Hoo, son of Bazayad Mohammad, commonly known as Awan, resident of Qilla Shor (Shorkot, may Allah save it from all troubles and chaos) always says the truth.” The same lines, with the change of a few words, are written in almost all of his books which prove that he genuinely belonged to the Awan tribe.

  • Critical Discourse Analysis of Marsiya-E-Hussain
    Religious Ideology and Discourse: A Critical Discourse Analysis of Marsiya-e-Hussain Snobra Rizwan Lecturer, Department of English Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan Pakistan Tariq Saeed Assisstant Professor, Department of English Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan Pakistan Ramna Fayyaz Lecturer, Department of English Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan Pakistan ABSTRACT This paper employs Fairclough’s framework of critical discourse analysis (Fairclough, 2001; 2003) as a research tool to demonstrate how mourning discourse of marsiya manages to win favourite responses from Pakistani audiences by foregrounding certain linguistic conventions. The data comprising popular marsiyas are based on responses obtained through a small-scale survey and are analyzed from the perspective of ideology and emotive appeal embedded in discourse. The analysis illustrates that discourse conventions of marsiya—in addition to traditional commemoration of martyrdom of Imam Hussian—serve to elaborate, explain and disseminate religious doctrines in Pakistani Shi‘ah masses. Keywords: Marsiya, Critical Discourse Analysis, Ideology, Shiism 1. Introduction This paper provides a close study to examine the distinguishing features of marsiya-e-Hussain and the way discursive choices of certain transitivity features, figurative language and lyrical conventions serve to make it a distinct poetic genre of its own. Though marsiya recitation is taken to be a means of commemorating the martyrdom of Imam Hussain; nevertheless, it means much more to Shi’ia community. Along with other mourning rituals, marsiya is considered to be a means of seeking waseela (mediation) from the saints, teaching and learning religious ideologies, seeking God’s pleasure and so on (‘Azadari; mourning for Imam Hussain’, 2009). All these objectives are achieved by following certain discourse conventions which in turn construct certain discursive reality and weigh heavily on the formation of distinctive opinion and religious ideology in Shi‘ah masses.

  • Ian Salisbury (England 1992 to 2001) Ian Salisbury Was a Prolific Wicket
    Ian Salisbury (England 1992 to 2001) Ian Salisbury was a prolific wicket-taker in county cricket but struggled in his day job in Tests, taking only 20 wickets at large expense. Wisden claimed the leg-spinner’s googly could be picked because of a higher arm action, which negated the threat he posed. Keith Medlycott, his Surrey coach, felt Salisbury was under-bowled and had his confidence diminished by frequent criticism from people who had little understanding of a leggie’s travails. Yet Ian was a willing performer and an excellent tourist. Salisbury’s Test career was a stop-start affair. Over more than eight years, he played in only 15 Tests. Despite these disappointments Salisbury’s determination was never in doubt. Several times as well, he showed more backbone than his supposedly superior English spin colleagues; most notably in India in early 1993. Ian Salisbury also proved to be an excellent nightwatchman, invariably making useful contributions. His Test innings as nightwatchman are shown below.

  • Song and Memory: “Singing from the Heart”
    SONG AND MEMORY: “SINGING FROM THE HEART” hir kIriq swDsMgiq hY isir krmn kY krmw ] khu nwnk iqsu BieE prwpiq ijsu purb ilKy kw lhnw ]8] har kīrat sādhasangat hai sir karaman kai karamā || kahu nānak tis bhaiou parāpat jis purab likhē kā lahanā ||8|| Singing the Kīrtan of the Lord’s Praises in the Sādh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, is the highest of all actions. Says Nānak, he alone obtains it, who is pre-destined to receive it. (Sōrath, Gurū Arjan, AG, p. 641) The performance of devotional music in India has been an active, sonic conduit where spiritual identities are shaped and forged, and both history and mythology lived out and remembered daily. For the followers of Sikhism, congregational hymn singing has been the vehicle through which melody, text and ritual act as repositories of memory, elevating memory to a place where historical and social events can be reenacted and memorialized on levels of spiritual significance. Hymn-singing services form the magnetic core of Sikh gatherings. As an intimate part of Sikh life from birth to death, Śabad kīrtan’s rich kaleidoscope of singing and performance styles act as a musical and cognitive archive bringing to mind a collective memory, uniting community to a common past. As a research scholar and practitioner of Gurmat Sangīt, I have observed how hymn singing plays such a significant role in understanding the collective, communal and egalitarian nature of Sikhism. The majority of events that I attended during my research in Punjab involved congregational singing: whether seated in the Gūrdwāra, or walking in a procession, the congregants were often actively engaged in singing.

After graduating from Robert College in 1973, he went to England to complete his higher education in the fields of economics and history at Cambridge University. He also specialized in political science and international relations at Sussex, Cambridge, and Istanbul universities. In 1979 he went to work at the United Nation’s Palestine Office. He returned to Turkey in 1980 to focus on his academic career. He soon became an assistant professor at Boğaziçi University in 1984 and a professor in 1990. In 1983, TRT (Turkish Radio and Television Corporation) brought Öke on as a general consulting manager for various documentaries, including “Voyage from Cadiz to Samarkand in the Age of Tamerlane.” Up until 2006 he was involved in game shows, talk shows, news programs and discussion forums on TRT, as well as on privately owned channels.

Throughout his academic career, Öke has always prioritized research. Of his more than twenty works published in Turkish, English, Urdu and Arabic, his writings on the issues of Palestine, Armenia, Mosul, and the Caliphate as they relate to the history of Ottoman and Turkish foreign policy are considered foundational resources.

It is Him who granted us all good things. Blessings and peace of Allah be upon the prophet, the pen by whom Allah wrote in the preserved book, our master, Mohammed, the great honour of life and the source of light for the Arabs and non- Arabs. Allah blesses him, his family who gave life to the hearts from nothing, his companions and his followers who followed this example. There are violent attacks against Sufism, in the past and nowadays, these attacks are not based on religion or science or logic. A wise person uses his mind to judge things. Logically, there are premises lead to results and a religious person never says any thing from his own view, but he passes it on the decree of Allah, the book of Allah (the Quran) and the Sunna of the prophet (May the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) and says only what matches the book of Allah and the Sunna of the beloved prophet.
