15. Al-Hijr/The Rocky Tract

15. Al-Hijr/The Rocky Tract

I/We begin by the Blessed Name of Allah

The Immensely Merciful to all, The Infinitely Compassionate to everyone.

15:01
Alif. Lam. Ra’.
These are Messages of the Divine Book - that is a Clear Qur’an.

15:02
a. The time will come when those who disbelieve now will wish that they were Muslims.

15:03
But leave them alone to feast and enjoy themselves as if it is the only aim of life, and let their wishful hopes distract them.
For they will soon realize the futility of their endeavors.

15:04
a. And WE have never destroyed any settlement or a community for its wrongdoing without its having a known decree beforehand.

15:05
a. No community can either precede its appointed time of doom nor delay it.

15:06
And they say:
‘O you - Muhammad - upon whom this Reminder - the Qur’an – is being sent down as you claim!
We think you are certainly possessed’ and insane.

15:07
a. So ‘why are you not bringing us the angels to testify your truthfulness, if you are of the truthful?’

15:08
However, WE do not send down the angels except with demands of the truth,
and were the angels to appear now with the decision, then they will not be spared.

15:09
Indeed, it is WE WHO are sending down this Reminder – The Qur’an, and
surely, WE will preserve it against any satanic change in its Sacred Arabic Text and its form.

15:10
a. And, certainly, WE did assign the Messengers before you among the earlier communities,

RESILIENCE AS A MEDIATOR IN RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ANXIETY AND PERSONALITY AMONG PHYSIOTHERAPISTS-A CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY

Background and Aims: The COVID-19 outbreak is the biggest global crisis in generations having severe and far-reaching repercussions for the health system, creating high prevalence of severe posttraumatic stress symptoms for physical therapists, highlighting the need for psychological help. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate how resilience functions as a mediator in the relationship between anxiety and personality among Karachi based physiotherapists.         Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted among physiotherapists of Karachi using a convenience sampling technique from August to December 2021. The data was collected using a 10-Item Personality Inventory, Brief Resilience Scale, and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale questionnaire. Results: Among 70 participants, the emotional stability trait (7.6±1.4) had higher mean values on the TIPI. On the HAM-A scale, 81.4% physiotherapists had moderate to severe anxiety followed by 15.7% mild to moderate anxiety whereas 92.9% were shown to have normal resilience. Despite all correlations being negligible, only the association between agreeableness and resilience was non-significantly higher (r=0.83). Conclusion: It was concluded that there was no association between the anxiety state and resilience among physiotherapists, although there was a non-significantly higher relationship between agreeableness and openness to experiences personality traits. A high prevalence of moderate to severe anxiety was noted while using a standard resilience strategy.

Study of the Heavy Metals Accumulation in Fishes Fauna Cirrhinus Reba, Channa Marulius and Rita Rita in River Sutlej Near Minchanabad Town District Bahawalnagar

In different organs of the fish a few heavy metals were measured in some fishes Cirrhiunus reba, Channa marulius and Rita rita captured at Minchanabad Town in River Sutlej. The water and sediment samples were collected and analysed for metal concentration. With the help of pure Nitric acid all the samples were digested and only for gills perchloric acid (4:1) was used at 100 and reading was taken through spectrophotometer. The blood samples were collected from live fish through cardiac puncture and caudal vein. To check the effects of heavy metals, the haematological parameters were also used. The damage of DNA was evaluated through micronucleus test of blood erythrocytes. Similarly physiochemical parameters of water were also tested to check the level of nitrates, dissolved gases and pH results revealed that temperature recorded was 14.18 ? 2.09 ?C during winter and 24.15 ? 6.04?C in summer season. The average pH value was 8.01 ? 0.29 and 7.59 ? 0.49 during winter and summer seasons respectively. Total hardness was 115.20?10.43 mg/L in winter and 33.34?26.45 mg/L during summer. Dissolved Oxygen was 7.52 ? 1.04 and 7.15 ? 0.90 during winter and summer season. Mean concentration of heavy metals were significantly higher in winter season. Accumulation of Ni in sediments of centre of river was 32.4?0.65 ?g/g and 35.49?0.64 ?g/g along bank of the river. Level of Fe was 1847?2.65 ?g/g in main stream while 1818.3?2.52 ?g/g near bank. The Cd concentration was 0.0023?0.001 ?g g-1 in centre and 0.0018?0.001 ?g/g along banks. Copper were 54.37?0.82 ?g/g in main stream sediments and 35.18?1.75 ?g/g in sediments of banks. Chromium was 47.27?0.86 ?g/g in centreand37.1?1.06 ?g/g near bank in winter season. Lead was accumulated significantly higher in sediments with concentration of 93.11?0.16 in centre and 75.06?0.09 ?g/g along banks of river. A total of three fish species (Cirrhinus reba,Channa marulius and Rita rita) were also evaluated for bioaccumulation level of heavy metal concentrations Mean concentrations and standard deviations were applied for results for samples of during winter and summer season which were different statistically in all test organs and also in fish species.
