A significant example of this can be found in Urdu literature, particularly in the &nbsp;work of classic poet Mirza Asadullah Khan Ghalib.</p> <p>Ghalib was nurtured in a society where the roots of society were connected to Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Islam, and Sikhism. As a sensitive poet, he was influenced by the fundamental intellectual concepts of that society. The purpose of this proposed research is not solely to prove Ghalib as a follower of Buddhism, but to prove that Ghalib's era existed in the presence of those intellectual concepts and that he did not show any inclination to disregard them.</p> <p>This research merely&nbsp;focusses on&nbsp; &nbsp;conducting a hermeneutical analysis on the concepts of being and non-being in the works of Ghalib and Buddha.</p> <p>Gautama Buddha and Ghalib, both perceive existence and nonexistence in terms of dependent origination. In their view, anything that has existence is material, and matter is inherently impermanent and transient. The absence of nonexistence is necessary for existence. They both question the true nature of external entities.Ghalib and Gautama Buddha both adhere to the perpetual cycle of existence and nonexistence.</p> <p>Both Ghalib and&nbsp;Gautama&nbsp;Buddha are fully acquainted with philosophical theories such as being in the world, being for itself, being in itself, emptiness, nothingness, pure being, and nihilism.</p> 2023-12-30T00:00:00+05:00 Copyright (c) 2023 http://irigs.iiu.edu.pk:64447/ojs/index.php/meyar/article/view/3008 اردو نعتیہ شاعری پر ترقی پسند شعرا کے توانا رجحانات 2023-11-07T16:01:24+05:00 ڈاکٹر زاہد ہمایوں zahidhamayoun333@gmail.com <p>In 1935 all the writers of the world gathered in Paris to favour the labourers and established the movement for progressive writers. This movement has got popularity in Hindustan very quickly. Great poets like Praimchand, Majnun Gorakhpuri, Ahmed Nadeem Qasmi, Faiz Ahmed Faiz and Sahir Ludhianvi have also supported this movement and its literature. Realism got a new exposure; sexual affairs has been exposed. Lyrics are not liked. The literature, which is created under the progressive movement, it has great impact of the progressive ideology. This movement represented life and atmosphere by giving an important objective of literature for public welfare. Religious, ethics and spirituality have also been criticized. But some poets have not accepted this trend of religious opponent for example Rawish Siddiqui, Ahmed Nadeem Qasmi, Ehsan Danish and Arif Abdul Mateen. They promoted Na’at in thematic and stylish way through their creative experiences. Whatever motives exists in Na’at of progressive poets, but we cannot deny this reality that they have created quality Na’at technically and represented in very effective way, some aspects of character and personality of Hazrat Muhammad (صلیٰ اللہ علیہ وسلم) according to references and problems of present age. They composed the element of eternal grief and external affliction in Na’at poetry through their enlightening power. Through their similes, metaphor, and symbols they gave a great strength to the new trends in Na'at poetry. If we put aside the ideological biasness and study Na’at and progressive poets deeply, we cannot deny their strong tendency that exist in Na’at poetry.</p> 2023-12-30T00:00:00+05:00 Copyright (c) 2023 http://irigs.iiu.edu.pk:64447/ojs/index.php/meyar/article/view/3009 ٹوبہ ٹیک سنگھ۔۔۔۔۔ ذولسانی تجزیہ 2023-11-08T09:18:54+05:00 ڈاکٹر فریحہ نگہت drfareeha239@gmail.com <p>Saadat Hassan Manto is one of the greatest Urdu short story writer of the twentieth century in the Indo Pakistan sub-continent.

Later on dramatization of many stage plays were aired through radio platform as well. The process of dramatization of literary texts on television has been ongoing since the beginning of this broadcasting institution. Television dramatists have exactly interpreted the original texts by talking the main idea of the story just as a reference and have made dramatic changes in the events, moods of the characters and the overall atmosphere. The dramatization of literary texts becomes only possible through the vision of the playwright or the director. Among the popular writers whose literary works are being dramatized in the present era, the name of Umaira Ahmed is at the top of the list. Fifteen of her novels have been adapted into plays so far. An important aspect of the research and critical study of the dramatic structure of literary texts is based on the application of the theory of adaptation. Under the same framework, Umaira Ahmed's novel "Meri Zaat Zarra Bay Nishan" and the drama broadcasted with the same title on Geo Tv would be critically evaluated. In this paper, while critically evaluating the text and sources, it will be seen that what changes have taken place in the context of the novel's text, characters and other aspects during the dramatic creation. It is also important to understand that despite borrowing the story and main characters of the novelette, what and why the playwright deviated from the theme of the novelette. It will also be seen that this deviation is only at a single point or innovation or change was necessary in several respects to explain the drama theme while maintaining the story of the novelette. It will also be examined that despite this fundamental change in the text, why the borrowing and intersecting framework can be applied to this?</p> 2023-12-30T00:00:00+05:00 Copyright (c) 2023 http://irigs.iiu.edu.pk:64447/ojs/index.php/meyar/article/view/3016 سقوط ڈھاکہ کے تناظر میں مسعود مفتی اور صدیق سالک کی غیر افسانوی نثر کا تقابلی جائزہ 2023-11-13T08:25:22+05:00 ماریہ بتول ghulam.farida@iiu.edu.pk ڈاکٹر غلام فریدہ ghulam.farida@iiu.edu.pk <p>The “Fall of Dhaka”, which transpired on December 16, 1971was an unforgettable moment in the history of South Asia.A lot of fictional and non-fictional literature was created on this tragedy.Masood Mufti(Minister of Education) and Siddique Salik's(as Major ISPR) non-fictional prose presents the correct perspective of political, economical, psychological, military and educational discepts regarding the Fall of Dhaka.The scribings of&nbsp; Masood Mufti (لمحے،ہم نفس، چہرے اور مہرے) and Siddique Salik (میں نے ڈھاکہ ڈوبتے دیکھا، ہمہ یاراں دوزخ ،سیلوٹ) presents the correct facts about segregation through their theorems.

In the novel, both the characters are looking for a place of honor in the society to maintain their identity, on which the layers of outdated customs and traditions have been imposed.

They, after a profound study of ancient and modern philosophies, gave the Muslim nation awareness of altitude of self and philosophy of oneself. His other philosophies contain scarcity and affluence, love and wisdom, a perfect man and most importantly study and teaching. We can be successful by following his thoughts and teachings. Allama Iabal is against the western system of education since it is based on the accumulation of wealth whereas Iqbal teaches stoic resignation. In recent times, there is more need to teach the books of Iqbal since the world has yet again to fight the battle between spirit and body. His teachings are based on courage, fearlessness, freedom and mobility. If we act upon his teachings, we can redeem ourselves of the world of conflict and include us in the developed nations of the world. This is the summary of Iqbal’s teachings.
