Mostly she has been relegated a secondary position in all walks of life. She has been considered an inferior creation, handmaiden, impure, a symbol of evil and a bone of contention. She has been treated the worse than slaves. In modern western world the voices for the women rights were raised in 18<sup>th</sup> century.&nbsp; In 19<sup>th</sup> century conventions were held and declarations were passed by women activists. Gradually the movements and organizations for women rights were founded to raise the voices and to achieve the goal. The slogans of women rights: freedom, liberty, equality and independence were the main theme of these movements. The movements of women rights reached at culmination in the end of 19<sup>th</sup> and beginning of the 20<sup>th</sup> century under the title feminism. Now in west the representative of women rights is the movement of feminism. This movement can be encircled in four waves. The representatives of this movement have claimed that they have achieved a lot in this respect. In this article our aim is to analyze that either woman has gotten the rights or she is in a new imprisonment and enslavement under the attractive slogans of liberty, freedom and rights.</p> Dr. Ali Raza Tahir Muhammad Iqbal Shah Copyright (c) 2024 Al-NASR https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2024-06-07 2024-06-07 29 40 10.53762/alnasr.03.02.e03 The Afghan Taliban's Intransigence on Counterterrorism and the Escalation of Regional Terrorism: Strategic Directions for Pakistan https://alnasrjournal.com/index.php/journal/article/view/131 <p>In recent years, the threat of terrorism has considerably increased in the South Asian region. Pakistan, in particular, has been experiencing a hike in terror activity since the onset of 2021. This rise in the security challenges posed by terrorism to the region comes in tandem with the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan and the Afghan Taliban’s return to power in Kabul. This research paper attempts to contextualize and understand the rise of terrorism across the region particularly under the Taliban administration. The paper concludes that owing to the Taliban’s ideological and operational ties with several militant groups in the area, the Afghan Taliban have remained relatively unable to restrain their activities. Consequently, militancy in the region is on the path of strengthening, thereby becoming a dire security challenge for regional peace and security in general, and Pakistan’s security in particular.</p> Sajid Kiani Copyright (c) 2024 Al-NASR https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2024-06-20 2024-06-20 41 54 10.53762/alnasr.03.02.e04 The Divine Singularity: Unity and Oneness in Islam https://alnasrjournal.com/index.php/journal/article/view/133 <h4>Man, a naturally inquisitive being, is profoundly emphasized by the holy Quran to observe the signs <em>(ayat)</em> of the Almighty in both the natural world and human existence, recognizing the interconnectedness of all the creation in the universe.

Pakistan reconsidered its national security policy by focusing on the soft core of its national security path. The aim of writing this article is to see what factors led Pakistan to transform its focus from hard core to soft core of national security and its path to formulate its first national security policy 2022-2026. This article also elaborates the past national security directives of the state along with the national security compulsions it is facing.

It examines the established norms and practices of international tribunals. The discussion encompasses the formulation of standards, guidelines, and guarantees aimed at preventing judicial errors. It evaluates that whether ICP can be characterized as "adversarial," "inquisitorial," or “a blend of both”. It examines the case law and legal framework of international courts and tribunals. Employing a comparative and analytical research methodology, this article demonstrates that a genuinely hybrid procedure has emerged through successive amendments to the ICT for the former Yugoslavia and its rules of Procedure and Evidence (RPE) and the formulation of the Rome Statute. This procedure effectively synthesizes elements from both traditions; common law (adversarial) and civil law (inquisitorial) into a cohesive international legal framework. The article emphasizes the convergence of legal positions across jurisdictions. The observed similarities in legal frameworks arise from the universal recognition of the importance of justice in shaping human coexistence. However, the article acknowledges that the diversity in human minds leads to variations in devising solutions and creating means, explaining the inherent disparities in legal approaches across different contexts. It will be beneficial for Pakistan to adopt Islamic Criminal Procedure having hybrid criminal procedure that will improve the efficiency of our judicial system, ensuring swift resolution of criminal cases with effective outcomes.</p> Dr. Muhammad Ramzan Kasuri Muhammad Zaigham Akhtar Ali Ansari Copyright (c) 2024 Al-NASR https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2024-06-30 2024-06-30 111 130 10.53762/alnasr.03.02.e09 عصر حاضر میں شخصیت کی تعمیر: نفسیاتی اثرات اور اسلامی تعلیمات https://alnasrjournal.com/index.php/journal/article/view/126 <p>This article examines the personality development aspect from an Islamic perspective.

To make everyone feel humbled, the Holy Quran has many such dimensions, such as eloquence, simplicity and syntax, science, news of the future, and has humbled all humanity. Also, the Quran has openly challenged all humanity that "If you are in doubt about what We have sent down to Our special individual, then make just one surah similar to it." (Al-Qur'an: 2/23) In another place, the Qur'an has mentioned the jinns along with humans that if you all think that you are capable of creating something even remotely like it, no one has ever produced something like it and you will find that you are not able to make something like this Qur'an. Now, there are researchers who are bringing forward many such information which the Qur'an had described about fourteen hundred years ago, which is a clear argument for the authenticity of the Qur'an and being the Book of Allah, also the scientific miracles of the Holy Qur'an and the opinions established by the commentators regarding this aspect have been described in this paper.</p> Muhammad Basharat Muhammad Ali Tahir Copyright (c) 2024 Al-NASR https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2024-06-30 2024-06-30 41 50 10.53762/alnasr.03.02.u05
