Marriage is a human social institution which lays the foundation of a family as a unit of a society. It has been happening in human societies since the dawn of the creation but with varying degree of celebrations, customs and traditions, modes and manners etc. It is regarded as a moment of celebration and joys not only for the couple who are going to lock in weddings, but in many parts of the world, it is a moment of joy and celebration for the blood relatives as well as the entire community. Unfortunately, it does not happen always especially in the case of early marriage. In such case, it does not give such a cause of celebrations to the wedding couple rather it imposes on them without their consent or informed consent. The practice of early marriages has been in vogue from time immemorial, but all its negative impacts whether social, economic, physical or psychological, are realized since the late 20th century. This literature based article highlights the concept, practice, causes and consequences of the child marriages with special reference to Pakistani society. It was concluded that by increasing literacy rate among the people and through educating them, the issue of early marriages may be minimized/dealt.

Different Parts

There is a burgeoning body of research on the role of ‘shame’ and ‘honour’ in decisions regarding early marriage in different parts of the world. Conceptualizing shame and honour as idioms through which gendered socio-economic inequalities are created and maintained, we examine early marriage decisions in Bangladesh, Nepal, Pakistan, Ghana, Burkina Faso and Senegal. While we acknowledge the existence of important differences between countries in terms of the nature and manifestations of shame and honour, we argue that regardless of setting, neither shame and honour, nor female sexuality and chastity can be separated from the socio-economic hierarchies and inequalities. Thus, in this article we seek to identify the cross-cutting dynamic of marriage as a means to overcome the shame associated with young single women’s sexuality, protecting family honour and social standing, and/or securing young women’s social-economic future. Building on our data and available scholarship, we question the potential of emphasizing ‘choice’ as a means of reducing early marriage and advancing women’s emancipation in international development efforts. Instead, we argue in favour of initiatives that engage with young people and caregivers on the ways in which, at grassroot levels, communities may revise narratives of respectability, marriageability and social standing.

Education plays a pivotal role in the development of any nation. The Better the Education, the better would be its impacts on every walk of life of a nation. Education is responsible for the development of social, economic, cultural as well as in the development of every field of life. Therefore the development of the educational system has been the center of every concerned nation, and thought is the sign of the lives of the nations. As all the intellectual processes come from no being into being, and the required length of time needs intensity of thought, depends on the inteluctability of its existence. Education is not a matter of concern even if it is not a part of thought, and if it becomes a part of thought, the length of time required for change is not high. As the world that is developing rapidly, and the knowledge that is attained in the present age, the people who turn away from it will not be able to maintain their presence at the home page. Any healthy, developed and advanced educational system can make real the dream of building a decent and robust nation. In the coming days, nations who do not share their knowledge in the academic field will always be in behind of the developed nations and will always lose the respect and deprivation will always be their lot. This Research is going to explain the importance of modern Education and to reflect on the importance of English Language in processes of development from Islamic perspectives.

<p><em>This paper is based on a two decade observation on the dilemma of order and justice, leading to an attempt to analyze the social-economic factors underlying the historical roots of injustice. On its course it attempted to take lessons from historically proven axioms provided by certain heavy weight thinkers. While trying to make the best out of those axioms, the analysis could not ignore the hard facts of the daily life of the billions of people suffering from unending injustice in most parts of the world, in the rich and let alone in the poor parts of it. Neither could it escape from criticizing the ubiquitous mess in the justice system, almost universally. Although the overall problem of injustice does not seem to provide much hope for a better life of the people at large, the conclusion of this paper tried to distant away from a pessimistic stance and instead proposed an agenda for those who may concern to be carried out. This paper contains forethoughts of a book in the making regarding basically the same problem.  </em></p><p><em> </em></p><p align="right"><strong><em>Keywords</em></strong><em>:</em></p><em>history, authority, rationality, law, order, equality, justice</em>

Today people all over the world live in a multilingual environment. Our country did not stay away from this global process. One of the priorities of the socio-economic development of the Republic of Kazakhstan is the possession of three languages ​​by the people of Kazakhstan. Since independence, we have focused on establishment of political, social, economic and cultural ties with many countries of the world. The importance of language for the effectiveness of these relations and the development of the unity of the country and people is growing day by day. Multilingualism is one of the most important needs of today, allowing the younger generation fly freely in the educational space, explore the secrets of world science and show your ability. Therefore, the role, prestige and scale of the three languages ​​in the implementation of the trilingual policy in the country require close attention. Otherwise, there may be confusion in the positioning of each language. This is confirmed by the fact that criticisms are already being introduced into the implementation of this language policy. Multilingualism has emerged in accordance with modern requirements for teaching and working in English.

Likewise community actors in Kemukus ritual that has its own beliefs about how to find fortune by doing free sex. The conviction was strung in a ritual which known as ngalab berkah. This ritual begins from a myth that spoken by the RA Ontrowulan towards moksha as a royal family that promise to grant all requests of people who participated in Kemukus nyonggo wirang. The existence of this ritual is able to increase the local economy, as evidenced that is the emergence of jobs for the community. But it on the other hand it also cause negative impacts such as raises prostitution. It becomes an interesting phenomenon, because if this ritual is closed, then many people will be unemployed. Meanwhile if left unchecked, would be bad for society. To describe this ritual conception it was conducted qualitative research. The result is the people have a conception which is the influence of Hindu-Buddhist and animist dynamism, especially about the king who is believed to be manifestation of God. Based on this conception ritual actors believe the myth, so that conception nyonggo wirang is a form of defense and the participation of actors ritual with the pathos of the character who is the royal family, so it is not impossible if the request will be met.
