How to attempt Q's like this :
Explain How the contributions of Ansars to Muhajarin sets an Eg. for today's Muslims ?? (4)
Guide me that we re required to talk about Mawakhat or just just to explain how it sets an eg. for today's Muslims
Help me out ! Panic :(
AOA!
In the answer to this question, we could write:

* The Ansars shared their wealth and property and what ever they had with the Muhajirin. This shows how caring they were and put others needs over their selves. So the Muslims of today should also make sure that their fellow Muslims, who are in difficulties, should be helped and taken care of.
* We should not refrain from sharing our things with others, because it is a rewarding act to do so.
* The brotherhood that was formed between the Muhajirin and Ansar truly depicted the feelings of love, equality and friendship. Thus, modern Muslims should also not have feelings of hate or jealousy towards others, rather they should treat others as if they were their own brothers and sisters, as the Quran says: " Believers are but a single brotherhood." (49:10)

Hope this was of good use for you!!! :)

No, write about how it affects the lives of Muslims today. That we should be caring towards each other and help each other in times of distress and difficulty. Nursing the sick , sending food etc to areas affected by flood or war.Sharing of knowledge and belongings. Just expand and give some hadith or quotation such as : 'You are not a true believer unless there is reciprocal love among you'(Hadtih) and ' He is not a true believer who eats to his fill and his neghbour sleeps hungry.'(Hadith) , the Quran says: 'And do good to your parents, kinsfolk , orphans and those in need...'.
Hope I helped :)

What was the Kalashnikov culture ?
What was the Troika?
AOA!
Ans 1. The Kalashnikov culture was a term applied to the rampant crime and terrorism that started taking place in Pakistan after the USSR withdrew from Afghanistan. Kalashnikov were Russians guns, which were copied and sold freely in the town of Sakhot. Thus, gun-carrying started becoming norm as anyone could obtain those guns. Kidnappings, bombings and murders started becoming common, particularly in Sindh.

Ans 2. The troika was a term used to refer to the three persons namely Benazir Bhutto (Prime Minister), Ghulam Ishaq Khan (President) and the Army/Chief of Army Staff. As the President had the power to dismiss the PM and the National Assembly due to the Eighth Amendment, no decision could be made without his consent. Also, the army was very influential in politics, as there could be a threat of martial law being imposed, so the army also had to agree to a decision in order for it to be implemented. Thus, there was a troika or three way power in which decisions were made by the agreement of all these 3 persons.

Hope this was useful for you!!!:)

How successful were the British attempts to take control of lands in ththe subcontinent between 1750 and 1856?? (14 Marks)
pll describe with format of writing.. Thanks :)

Eh ....

You have to write the successes and failures of the British in taking control of the subcontinent.

Failures (Of British)
>In 1666, EIC grew proud, refused taxes and issued coins. Aurangzeb sent a force against them, defeated them. EIC paid a fine, apologized, reduced activities.
>In 1756, Nawab of Bengal, Siraj ud Daulah defeated EIC and managed to drive them away from and they captured Calcutta.
>Tipu Sultan had French support, and used his strong army against the EIC at several times. Defeating them.

Successes:
>…The very next year in 1757, The British, under Robert Clive defeated Siraj ud Daulah’s forces with the help of Mir Jafar’s betrayal. Siraj died, and the Mir Jafar was placed as a puppet ruler by the British
>In The Battle of Buxar of 1764, the British defeated the Mir Jafar’s son, Mir Qasim and Shah Alam II and the Nawabs of Oudh. This extended their influence, gave them Bengal, Bihar and Orissa. They collected Revenue from here, managed to get a bigger army. Ended true Muslim Rule.
>In 1782, first GG, Warren Hastings signed a treaty with the Marathas They could now focus on other places, and Maratha take over was prevented.
>In 1799, GG Wellesley invaded Mysore and killed Tipu Sultan. They thus killed a strong enemy and took control of his lands in Mysore.
>In 1803, The British entered Delhi, forced Shah Alam II to accept rule under “British Protection” … which basically meant that The Emperor no longer had any real power. British were true rulers by this point.
>They provoked the Sindh Amirs into war despite a treaty signed between the two parties in an attempt to make up for their disgrace in Afghanistan.
>British managed this partly because of the Industrial Revolution, which made them technologically superior, giving them an edge over the Indians with their weapons, techniques.

Well, there was a great video I found on Youtube regarding it ... will try to dig it up if you ask.

GDP : Gross "Dometic" product: It means the revenue / profit generated through the industries and companies operating "Inside" (domestically) the country, that includes the international companies who are infact from other country but still generating profit in your country ( for example McDonalds sales counts in the GDP of Pakistan though it is not a Pakistani company )

GNP : Global "National" product; means the revenue / profit generated through the national companies, that is even if a company is operating outside the country, its' profit counts in the GNP of the country. For example McDonald's profit generated in Pakistan, counts in the GNP of USA ( That is where it is from, right ? )

You're welcome. ;)

Is it really important to memorise 14 points of jinnah, and Govt of India Act 1935.
You do not have to memorise each point if that's what you are asking... we should just know what it generally said, its importance, and why was it introduced.
Same for Govt of India Act 1935: its importance, and reasons for its failure/ opposition to it. (y)

Okay .... (y)
14 Points of Jinnah:
1. Reasons why they were introduced
:
-The Nehru Report of 1928 had clearly rejected Muslim demands like 1/3 seats, separate electorates etc. Jinnah had proposed a few changes to make them acceptable, but these changes were rejected. So to counter the Nehru Report, he presented 14 points which protected the political rights of Muslims e.g federal govt, 1/3 seats, provincial autonomy, separate electorates etc.
-They were introduced to influence/ include these demands into the final publication of Simon Commission in 1929.
-It was also to reinforce and re-endorse the Delhi Proposals of 1927.
2. Importance:
- It formed the basis of future negotiations with the British.
- It clearly reflected the demands and aspirations of Muslims.
- It was to cause the 'parting of ways' of Muslim League from the Congress.

Govt. of India Act 1935:
1. Importance:

-Was the last major legislation by the British
-Was the basis of first constitutions of Pakistan and India (after certain amendments).
- Women were given right to vote.
- Provincial autonomy, separate electorates, voters increased to 35 million, Sindh separated from Bombay, NWFP formed etc.
- Gave Indians increased say in running governmental affairs.
2. Reasons for Opposition:
- Introduced Separate Electorates: Congress was against this.
-Viceroy, Governor General and provincial governors had absolute power as they could dismiss ministers or even the whole administration: actual power still lay with the British.
- Only 25% of Indian population could vote, which was still not enough.
- Nehru called it 'Charter of Slavery' and a 'machine with strong brakes but no engine', while Jinnah called it 'thoroughly rotten, fundamentally bad, and totally unacceptable'.

Hope this helped you. (y);)

;) Let's see...

Ans- It was introduced in August 1932 by the then British Prime Minister Sir Ramsay MacDonald. According to it, separate representation/ electorates were to be provided to minorities like Muslims, Sikhs, Indian Christians, Untouchables, and Anglo-Indians. It was actively opposed by Gandhi. But it was favoured among the minorities.
