The story is an ancient literary art which has its existence in literary civilizations and cultures of different peoples and tribes over times. Due to the love and desire of the Arabs to listen to stories, Allah Almighty revealed stories about the former nations in the Glorious Quran. The Holy Quran
addressed the Arabs in an appropriate manner according to their tendencies and natures of listening to historical news and different stories. The stories of Arabs before Islam were distinguished by the element of realism and characterized by lack of exaggeration and imagination.
The short story appeared in modern Arabic literature in Egypt and other Arab countries at the start of the twentieth century and was influenced by the short story in Western literature. Muhammad Taimur is thought to be the actual pioneer in the field of modern arabic short story, who wrote the first story under the title " راطقلا يف " whereas some other Egyptian writers like Taufiq ul-Hakim, Hussain Fawzi, Najib Mahfouz, Ihsan Abdul Quddus, Yousaf Idris and Dr. Taha Wadi etc have also put their contributions in the field of short stories.
Dr. Taha Wadi was a prominent Egyptian author and story writer. He has a major contribution to the writing of a variety of literary arts such as story, novel, biography/autobiography and criticism. In particular, he has a skill in writing short stories. He has eight story collections which consist of 98 short stories under various topics. He has described various issues in his short stories. In his creative works, two features i.e alienation(strangeness) and egyptianization seems to be overwhelming. Whereas, alienation is a key feature in the short stories of Taha Wadi.
I have selected the topic “Short Stories of Dr. Taha Wadi”(Technical Study) and want to review and analyse the picture of various issues of Egyptian socity drawn by this reputed writer in his arabic short stories.
Moreover, my thesis will also encompass various aspects of his life, his literary works and technical study of his short stories. My thesis is composed of two chapters in which each chapter is further divided into two sub chapters.
In the first sub chapter of chapter one in my thesis I will provide information about the life of Dr Taha Wadi and his literary contribution in Arabic literature, whereas the second sub chapter of chapter one will be furnished with information about his short stories collections. In chapter two, the first sub chapter will be about the various topics undertaken by the author in his stories collections, whereas in the second sub chapter of chapter two I will focus on the technical analysis of his short stories.

The Poetic Citation in the Tafasir of Zad Al-maseer fi Ilmaltafseer and Fatih Al-Qadeer “Linguistic and Syntactical Comparative Study” of (Chapters: Al-Baqra and Aal -i- Imran)
The Holy Quran claims to be the World of God and such as to be inimitable by Mortals. The Holy Prophet regards the whole Quran in point of its being a happy synthesis of syntax and other sciences. So the manifold quality of Suras: Al-Baqara and Aal Imran has been the subject of the present research in the light of the past and contemporary study of Arabic linguistic and syntax , especially those related to the poetic verses of two commentators i.e. ; Imam Ibn Al-Jawzi and Imam Muhammad Ash-Shawkani . The Holy Quran, which is the last book of Almighty Allah and revealed for the guidance of the whole humanity till the doomsday, is indeed the most important and deserving book for a research scholar to carry out his research on it.
Learning of Arabic language is a basic tool for its understanding and the Arabic poetry has its major role in the learning process of this language. Arabic language helps the commentators مفسرونof the Holy Quran in defining the actual (commentators) lexical and contextual meaning of the difficult words occurred in the Holy Quran; Imam Ibn Al-Jawzi is one of those commentators who has very abundantly cited the Arabic poetry in his Tafsir. Similarly, Imam Muhammad ash-Shawkani is one of those commentators in later contemporary period that followed the same pattern in his Tafsir. Thereafter a detailed study has been undertaken to bring to focus the phenomenon of poetic verses during the commentary of Quranic chapters Al Baqara and Aal-i- Imran in its different and various aspects such as Syntax and linguistic.

"In the Name Of Allah the Most Beneficent the Most Merciful"
Research proposal Submitted for the Approval of M.Phil Dissertation by Bakhtawar Tariq
Women in the Novels of the Writer Hanna Mina (1924-2018)
"Technical Study"
Hanna Mina (Arabic Named: حنا مينة) was a Great Arabic Writer of Modern Era born on 9 March 1924 A.D. He was a Syrian novelist described in Literature from the "Axis of Evil" as the country's "most prominent".
His early novels belong to the movement of social realism, and focus on class conflict; his later works contain "a more symbolic analysis of class differences. His writing on the suffering of ordinary people was partly inspired by his own experiences, alternately working as a stevedore, barber and journalist; his autobiographical short story, "On the Sacks", was published in 1976.
Several of his works are set during the period of the French Mandate of Syria, or in the period immediately following independence. Mina has authored about 40 novels, varying in imaginary value and narrative significance. But his achievement lies in the foundation he laid for this literary structure. For his collective works and novels, Mina was awarded the Arab Writer's Prize in 2005. He wrote several short stories, which brought him into literary circles, and he co-writing founded the Syrian Writers Federation in 1951 and later moved to become the editor in-chief of al-Inshaa.
Hanna slowly gaining fame and prestige and becoming of Syria's renowned writers, he never stopped reflecting on the harsh reality of his earlier life, which he considered as fuel for his novels. "Salah Fadl" as the greatest autobiography in Arab novel-writing, and the most abundant in brutal honesty and wealth of thought.
The novelist Hanna Mina is one of the novelists who were able to portray women through their social reality, which lived in a distinct literary form. Women take a large space for most of the works (Hanna Mina), including novels and long and short stories,
But its scope and importance in these novels was the largest and greatest, the novelist Hanna Mina has given the woman here a great positive role in taming this cruel and crude character into a world of passion, love, and vast, sublime spiritual feelings.
Hanna Mina applies not only to the mother, but also to the widow, the sister, the lover, the daughter and even the prostitute. I commented on it with a chapter on revolutionary women and women between reality and symbol.
Hanna Mina died on 21 August 2018 in Damascus, aged 94. In Syria, the culture ministry each year awards the Hanna Mina Prize for Literature.

“Amin Al-Rihani, A Novelist,
An Artistic Study Through His Novels”
Amin Al-Rihani (1876-1940), the Lebanese American writer, philosopher, and political activist in the first half of last century who devoted his life to bringing the East and the West together.
Amin Al-Rihani is generally regarded as the most prominent member of the ‘Lebanese-American’ or al-Mahjar school of modern literature and thought, which includes Kahlil Gibran and Mikhail Nuaimey. He also demonstrated great foresight in his choice of political and social issues upon which to concentrate, for these same issues were destined to have a continuing relevance in world affairs right up to the present day. He was both a Romantic and a Realist. On the one hand he firmly rejected the ills of society and was both a literary rebel and a lover of nature and of all things simple.
Rihani was in is mid-twenties when it became clear to him that the decay of Arab society was primarily due to ignorance and sectarian fanaticism, and that sweeping intellectual, spiritual, and material reform was needed. In his Arabic writings he warned his own people and his Arab brethren against the many dangers threatening them and the ambitions of other nations regarding their own integrity.
His most successful Arabic works in the various literary genres are as follows: Novels: The Muleteer and the Monk; The Chronicle of Repentance; Short story: The Lily of al-Ghour; Essays: A Rihani
ح
Compendium; Extremism and Reform; Criticism: Literature and Art; Oriental an Occidental Profiles; History: A History of Modern Najd; The Disasters, Feisal the First; Poetry: A Voice Crying in the Valleys; Theater: The Loyalty of Time; Travel: Arab Monarchs ; Heart of Lebanon; Heart of Iraq; The Far Maghrib; The Light of Andalusia.
The most controversial of his works was Antom Ush-Shouraa (You Poets), in which he fiercely criticizes the woeful and spineless state of Arabic poetry. He made a highly significant contribution to the development of modern Arabic poetry through his early literary activity in the United States. He earned for himself the Arabic title of ‘Father of Prose Poetry’.
Kahlil Gibran was the first to recognize the debt owed to Rihani by his successors, indeed, Rihani and Gibran were the inspiration for every Arab writing in English after them. It is no exaggeration to say that these two men made the most important intellectual and literary contribution to the revitalization of Arab intellectual life in the first quarter of the 20th century.
Indeed, the Middle East of today, and students of its problems worldwide, still have much to learn from Amin Rihani.

الشوا ھد الشعریۃ فی الز ھراوین فی زاد المسیر لا بن الجوزی Al-Shawahid Al-Shieria Fi Al-Zahrawayn Fi Zad Al-Masayr Le-Ibn Al-Jawzi
Poetic evidence in “Al Zahrawain Fi Tafseer Zad Al-Maseer Fi Elm Al-Tafseer” of Ibn al-Jawzi"
Abstract
This research work encompassed a comprehensive overview about Ibn Al-Jawzi and the way he used the poetic evidence in his Tafseer “Zad Al-Maseer Fi Elm Al-Tafseer” for elaborating any difficult word in the said Tafseer. The method used for the research is descriptive and analytical. The review of the literature revealed that some great Quranic Interpreters like Tabari, Abi Habban and Al-Qurtabi, used this methodology of interpretation through poetic of evidence, however these studies already elaborated by some research scholars in different Universities of Morocco, Egypt, KSA and Pakistan. This study reviles that Ibn Al-Jawzi used a number of poetic verses for elaborating different difficult words. The research scholar analysed that how Ibn Al-Jawzi used these evidence, moreover the syntactical & morphological analysing gives a broad view of understanding to the reader. The scholar found that evidence from poetry is a very old scholarly Arabic tradition of hundreds of years used by a lot of religious and linguistic scholars to define meaning of a word or to clear its ambiguity. Ibn Al-Jawzi like his ancestors in the field of Quranic Tafseer also used the same pattern. In fact this research is helpful for all those scholars who want to do research on the primary sources of Arabic Language and to explore their methodologies.
Keywords: Ibn al-Jawzi, Al Zahrawain, Tafseer Zad Al-Maseer Fi Elm Al-Tafseer, Poetic evidence, interpretation, syntax, morphology, analytical study.

ABSTRACT
Topic of PhD Dissertation
An English Translation of the collection
"Mariam and Good Luck"
This study is an attempt to analytically translate selections from the stories of Mariam Al Saady titled “Mariam and the Good Luck” to demonstrate the best style of translation used. The current study starts with the multiple definitions of translation, transformation of individual words, sentences, and meaning from Arabic (source) to English (target) languages. During the translation it is kept in mind that translation is a science, art, and skill therefore different techniques of translations are employed including the direct and indirect translation of particular text. Also, the history of translation theories is elaborated along with the different theories adopted by different translators and scholars along the history.
The current study utilizes the most important styles of translation presented by theorists such as Nida, Newmark, Catford, Vinay & Darbelnet while focusing on the seven translation procedures presented by Vinay & Darbelnet: borrowing, calque, literal translation, transposition, modulation, reformulation, and adaptation. In the practical part, researcher presented a translation of the selected parts from the various stories of ‘Mariam and the good luck’. It aims to illustrate that linguistically sound translation techniques should be avoided to produce a literal translation.
The researcher considers the culture of the source and target language, which requires a broad knowledge of both the cultures yet keeping him detached from his original culture to adapt to the culture of the source language. In this way the stories of ‘Mariam and the good luck’ are treated. It is observed that the author, Mariam Al Saady detaches herself and takes a broad and critical look at the world to present a new creative and brave work of art. It is discussed in detail how culture affects language and the vice versa.
It is concluded that the language is basic means of communication among the people of a community, as it determines their perception of the world and how they present themselves.
I have divided this thesis into Abstract, Preface, Four chapters, Bibliography and list of contents.
First Chapter: is about the Art of Translation including history, methods & types of Translation and it has three sub-chapters.
Second Chapter: is about the writer, her literary work and achievement along with the presentation of her most famous short-story book i.e. “Mariam and good luck”. It further has three sub-chapters.
Third Chapter: elaborates the culture, cultural hurdles during the translation and strategies to handle the problems, it has two sub-chapters.
Fourth Chapter: consists of analytical translation of selected parts from the book keeping in mind the techniques and methods of translation. Is has three sub-chapters.
المقاومة في شعر عبد الكريم الكرمي الفلسطيني وعبد الكريم آغا شورش الكاشميري (دراسة مقارنة)
Abstract
Topic of PhD Dissertation
The Resistance in the Poetry of Abdul Karim Al Karmi and Abdul Karim Agha Shorsh Al Kashmiri
(Comparative Study)
The title of this research effort originates from the word "resistance" which links this effort to resistance literature. Since "Resistance" has the status of the basic aspect of the research effort, so in the introduction, its types are explained by mentioning the literal and terminological meanings of "Muqawamah".
The title of the research effort culminated in "Darasat al-Maqarana", which highlights the aspect of the research that deals with comparative assessment. In order to highlight these two aspects, poems were selected from the poetry collections of two poets, which are related to resistance literature in any respect. Then these poems were organized under appropriate headings, such as patriotism, hope for a bright future, the glory of the past, mention of atrocities, the plight of the oppressed, awakening the global conscience, exposing the plots of the enemy, our nation. Awakening, condemnation of enemies, condemnation of fake journalists, glory of freedom struggle mujahideen and martyrs.
Under these titles, two great poets were selected for the purpose of describing the resistance literature, one of them is a Palestinian poet and the other is a Kashmiri poet, the name of the Palestinian is Abdul Karim Al-Karmi and the name of the Kashmiri is Abdul Karim Agha Shorush. The Palestinian poet is not only a representative of the Palestinian literature but of the entire Arab literature, similarly the Kashmiri poet is a representative of Kashmiri literature as well as Urdu literature, both of them have adopted resistance literature. The Palestinian and Kashmiri poets were chosen for this reason. That among the nations of the world who are engaged in shining the light of truth in the darkness of oppression and oppression, the Palestinians and Kashmiris are the most prominent among these nations, both are geographically and politically oppressed, both are victims of autocratic oppression. And both are resisting this oppression and oppression, and their writers and poets are waging jihad with their pens, and are raising their voice for the freedom of the oppressed society.
Before describing the resistance literature of the two poets, their living conditions and their literary services have been mentioned. It is clear from the comparative analysis of the poetry collections of the two poets that their themes are very similar, found between them. This similarity is actually similar in Arabic and Urdu literature. From their comparative analysis it is also known that the Arabic language has a deep influence on the Urdu language, the knowledge of Urdu language is based on all the Arabic terms.
This research effort is useful for all these researchers. Those who are engaged in research on resistance literature and comparative analysis, it will also be beneficial for those who want to be aware of colonial tactics and want to get out of their clutches.
An integrated approach has been adopted in this research effort which combines resistive, comparative, linguistic, descriptive, historical analysis. It deals with a comparative assessment between two great poets of two Islamic countries. And this work can serve as a means of introduction to Arab and non-Arab.
