    Islam and Christianity do share some similarities, but their core beliefs are very different. Some Christian authors interpret these connections using Islamic justifications to support their perspective. One such similarity is the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, which is anticipated by both religions. While this occurrence is seen as one of the signs of the Hour in Islamic traditions, it is of utmost importance in Christian eschatology. In this article, Sulṭān Paul’s thoughts on the Second Coming of Jesus Christ are examined from an Islamic viewpoint. Sulṭān Paul, who was born in 1881 and raised in an Afghan Muslim family, subsequently converted to Christianity in 1903. He rose to prominence in the Subcontinent for his Christian activities. He made an effort to integrate biblical literature with the Qur’ān through his writings, defending Christianity and addressing Islam and other religions. The study explores Sulṭān Paul’s contributions and illuminates his thoughts on the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. We hope to better comprehend the interaction between Christian eschatology and Islamic beliefs by exploring this viewpoint

    Regarding the chain of Prophethood, Allah Almighty sent most of the Prophets to Banī Isrāīl. These prophets directed them to monotheism and prevented from disbelief and polytheism. The history of the ancient nations shows that the most disobedient nation was Banī Isrāīl which took the path of apostasy many times and they were severely punished for this crime. In relation to apostasy's penalty, both the Qur‘ān and the Bible have a common statement. Both books are convinced of the death penalty for apostates. However, the critics mostly criticize Islam only and ignore the teachings and severe punishments of the Bible. This short article reviews the apostasy and punishment of the Children of Isrāīl and seeks to prove that the decision of both the Bible and the Qur‘ān is the same when it comes to apostasy punishment

The sample comprised of secondary data of 50 companies from the 28 manufacturing sectors of Pakistan Stock Exchange for the time period 2005-2018. The data is divided into five regimes based on the tenure of the Prime Ministers of Pakistan. The results indicated that the manufacturing sector of Pakistan mostly relies on short term debt financing in all the political regimes. Firms which were highly profitable and had high liquidity did not rely much on the debt but in case of uncertain political conditions firms borrowed long term debt, when required, due to their high tangibility. The volatility risk of the firms was higher in regimes which comprised of global financial crises and the dismissal of the government.

    Abstract Pakistan’s economy greatly benefits from citrus production since these fruits are sold and consumed all over the world. Although citrus fruits are easy to cultivate, they are susceptible to diseases caused by bacteria, viruses, and fungi. These challenges, as well as difficulties in obtaining the proper nutrients, might negatively impact fruit yields and quality. Citrus canker is another complicated problem caused by the germ Xanthomonas axonopodis. This germ affects many types of citrus fruits all over the world. This study looked closely at how citrus canker affects the leaves and the quality of the fruit in places like Sargodha, Bhalwal, Kotmomin, and Silanwali, which are big areas for growing citrus in the Sargodha district. What we found was that plants without the disease had more chlorophyll in their leaves compared to the sick plants. Also, the healthy plants had better amounts of important minerals like calcium, magnesium, potassium, and phosphorus in their fruits. But the fruits with the disease had too much sodium, and the iron levels were a bit different. The fruits with the disease also didn’t have as much of something that protects them called antioxidants, which made them more likely to get sick. This study helps us understand how citrus canker affects plants and fruit, so we can think of ways to deal with it
