ABSTRACT According to Islamic jurisprudence, power of attorney is a lawful provision. It is very much apparent in matters like marriage, divorce, sale and purchase transactions, trade partnerships, and criminal cases. In these situations, someone else other than the person concerned may be appointed as a representative or agent to act on behalf of the original person. There are some controversies among Muslim jurists surrounding the issue of the power of attorney or of representation. This article is devoted to discussing the various stands of the jurists and their arguments concerning the scope of attorney and agent in the above-mentioned legal areas
The best-planned development of any area is possible when the problems of that area are well understood, well documented and closely monitored. The central city has always been a spatial location of significance although its characteristic qualities have varied considerably over time and space. This study focuses on the internal structure of the years 2007 and 2014, which refers to the arrangement of land uses of the downtown (Saddar area) of Karachi. During the past half a century, the arrangement of land uses has been focused in study of western cities however such studies pertaining to Non-Western Cities are limited in number. This has been the chief stimulating factor behind the selection of this research. Saddar area of Karachi historically has always been recognized as the main shopping center of Karachi. Apart from commercial activity, which is the major activity, the area has substantial amount of residential function, educational, administrative and many other recognized land uses. The purpose of the study is to pinpoint the salient features of internal structure of the downtown area based on the spatial arrangement of its land uses. The analyses of this study utilized quantitative and qualitative data collected through intensive field inventory and interviews. Apart from traditional cartographic techniques the study has made full use of modern technique, Geographical Information System (GIS). This study indicates the changes that have occurred in the land uses and commercial functions in the downtown Saddar. As a result of this research, it has been possible to solve the problems like traffic congestion, poor road infrastructure, huge number of hawkers along the road side & foot path causing problems for pedestrians, old and damaged buildings not in use, lack of inter-shops space, noise pollution, air pollution, parking issues, drinking water problems, residential problems for migrants (job seekers) etc.
