ABSTRACT
Abu Mahfuz Al-Karim Ma’sumi (1913-2009) spent his entire life in the service of Arabic language and literature. He got basic education at his birth place Bihar, after that he travelled to Dhaka, Kolkata and other places seeking knowledge and got modern as well as traditional Islamic knowledge. His great scholarship in Arabic and Islamic literature quite clearly reflects in his writings: books, articles, research papers etc. Ma’sumi’s voluminous book Buhuth Wa Tanbihat, is the collection of all his writings. The book has been published in Beirut in two volumes in 2001, under the supervision of Dr.Ajmal Ayyub Al-Islahi. The book under discussion deals with Arabic language, Literature, Islamic theology, researches, analysis and commentaries. The life and works of Ma’sumi have, of late, emerged as an important subject for research. And, in fact a number of writers and researchers in India and abroad have published articles and research papers on the life and works of this great personality. But so far my knowledge is concerned; no one has done any research work for any degree in India. Hence, this proposed research will be first of its kind. During the next few years all possible attempts will be made to prepare a complete and comprehensive work on Ma’sumi’s life and works. An attempt to undertake a research is required to bring out the contribution of Ma’sumi to Arabic literature. I think it will benefit the researchers in general and the researchers in Arabic language and literature in particular. This research work will also encourage other researchers to do their researches on some other aspect of Abu Mahfuz’s prolific work Buhuth Wa Tanbihat.
ABSTRACT
La ley del Seguro Universal Materno Infantil (SUMI) fue implementada en enero de 2003, beneficiando a mujeres embarazadas y menores de 5 años, y fue ampliada en diciembre de 2005 cubriendo a mujeres de 5 a 60 años. Sin embargo, a pesar de la amplia cobertura que ofrece, se utilizan solo algunas prestaciones. Una de las posibles causas de la poca utilización del SUMI puede ser el desconocimiento de la ley. Por tanto, nos planteamos conocer en qué medida las mujeres de edad fértil conocen las prestaciones que brinda el SUMI, y qué factores determinan este desconocimiento. Para esto, se encuestó a 213 mujeres en edad fértil que consultaron en el centro de salud San José Obrero de Mayo a Junio de 2007 de la comunidad de Ironcollo. El 56% de las encuestadas no pudieron definir el SUMI, desconocen la gratuidad y cobertura del mismo. El 36% tenía nivel de instrucción bajo, del cual, el mayor porcentaje no pudo definir el SUMI. El 86,6 % indicó trabajar en su profesión y pudo definirlo; no así las amas de casa, empleadas domesticas y vendedoras ambulantes. El 44% pudo definir el SUMI, 24% de este grupo indicó a mujeres de 5 a 60 años, embarazadas y menores de 5 años como beneficiados por el SUMI, la mayoría señaló recibir esa información en el centro de salud. El 97% de las mujeres que indicaron visitar el centro de salud varias oportunidades al año pudieron definir el SUMI. Concluimos que el grado de conocimiento sobre el SUMI es bajo, y que tiene relación directa con el grado de escolaridad. El Centro de Salud tiene un rol importante en la información.
The Seguro Universal Materno Infantil (SUMI) law implemented juanary 2003 and it benefits to pregnant women and children younger than 5 years old, and in december 2005 it was extended covering to women fron 5 to 60 yers old. However, in spite of its great coverture, only some prestations are utilised. One cause of SUMI benefits low utilization could be the unknowledge of this law. So, we thougth to know in what extent women on fertile age know the benefits that SUMI aw offer, and what factors determine this extente of knowledge. In oder to do it, we did survey among a 213 fertile age women that attend to medical consult of Centro de Salud San José Obrero at Ironcollo comunity from may to june of 2007. 56% of people could not define the SUMI nor gratuity and its scope. 86% who says had a carrer could well define it; but not housekeeping, domestics, or ambulant sealers women. From 44% that coul well define SUMI, 24% pointed to 5 to 60 years old women, pregnant women and children under 5 years old as beneficiaries of SUMI. Most of them says had received this informatios at Centro de Salud. 97% of women that told to visit the Centro de Salud several times on a year could define SUMI. We conclude that the extent of knowledge about SUMI is low, and it has a relationship with scholar degree. The Centro de salud has an important role on information.
