Read! In the Name of your Lord,
Who has created (all that exists),
Has created man from a clot (a
piece of thick coagulated blood).
Read! And your Lord is the Most
Generous,
Who has taught (the writing) by the
pen [the first person to write was
Prophet Idrees (Enoch)],
Has taught man that which he knew
not.

EDITORIAL
T he above verses were the first ever
message received by Muhammad
(S.A.W). These changed him to
Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W). In fact,
these changed the whole society and
world for years to come. The human
beings were blessed to be chosen to
follow the orders of Allah almighty.
Reading, understanding, analyzing
and communicating verbally or in
writing is divine order. The social
system and the progress of intellectual
world of human beings, is based on
reading and writing. The status of the
whole world have been very clearly
defined by Allah Almighty and it is
based on reading & writing.
This Journal is a very humble effort to
encourage colleagues in medical field
to write in various fields of medicine
and spread up to date knowledge of
their specialities. It not only helps the
reader to achieve the most updated
knowledge but the author also gets
advanced understanding of the
subject.
The combination of peers helps to filter
and organize information into
productive knowledge.
There have been revolutionary
developments in medical science and
technology during past few decades.
The computer & internet has trans-
IR-001
formed the availability of required
knowledge with minimum effort and at
reasonably fast speed.
This humble effort of continuous
medical education and learning needs
lot of encouragement and guidance
from all peers. The topics of this issue
have been chosen very objectively.
The journal will be useful to medical
students, young and old doctors,
trainers and trainees.
Various interesting subjects and
sections are published in “Independent
Reviews”. History and development of
various modalities is likely to add flavor
to dull scientific information.
Islamic history is full of legends who
have contributed vast knowledge in
various fields of medical sciences.
I hope the editorial team will try its best
to provide most useful learning
material to its readers.
We shall be anxiously waiting for the
criticism and suggestions for the
improvement of journal. I hope we will
achieve success and general accep-
tance. Ameen !
