اللہ کہاں ہے؟

اللہُ کی نشانی انسان خود ہے
اللہُ کے وجود سے انکار ممکن ہی نہیں اگر اللہُ پاک نہیں تو انسان کا اپنا وجود بهی نہیں ہے-
وَفِيٓ أَنفُسِكُمۡۚ أَفَلَا تُبۡصِرُونَ
اور خود (اللہُ) تمہارے نفوس (تمہارے اندر) میں ہے تو کیا تم دیکھتے نہیں؟
اللہُ ہمارے اندر ہے تو کہاں ہے ؟ۗ
وَنَحۡنُ أَقۡرَبُ إِلَيۡهِ مِنۡ حَبۡلِ ٱلۡوَرِيدِ
اور ہم بندہ کی رگ جان سے بهی اس سے زیادہ قریب ہیں
یا اللہ تو ہمارے اندر کیسے ہے ہم کیسے تسلیم کر لیں کہ تو ہمارے اندر ہے اور ہماری جان سے بهی زیادہ قریب ہے؟
أَوَ لَمۡ يَتَفَكَّرُواْ فِيٓ أَنفُسِهِمۗ
کیا تم نے اپنے آپ پر (اپنے دل میں، اپنے وجود کے اندر) غور نہیں کیا؟
وَنَفَخۡتُ فِيهِ مِن رُّوحِي
اور ہم نے اس (انسان) میں اپنی روح داخل کر دی
یااللہ تو نے اپنی روح داخل کر دی انسان میں مگر ہم تجه سے کیسے ملیں- روح تو تیرا امر ہے مگر تو کہاں ہے
فرمایا
أَفَلَا تُبۡصِرُونَ
تم اپنے اندر غور کیوں نہیں کرتے ؟
ہمارے اندر کون ہے؟
وَفِيٓ أَنفُسِكُمۡ
اور (اللہُ) ہی تمہارے اندر ہے
(یا اللہ ہمیں سمجه نہیں آ رہا ہمیں تفصیلاً سمجها کہ تو ہمارے اندر کیسے ہے)
ۚ ٱللَّهُ نُورُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡض
اللہ زمین اور آسمان کا نور ہے ِ
مَثَلُ نُورِهِۦ
اس کے نور کی مثال ایسی ہے
كَمِشۡكَوٰةٖ فِيهَا مِصۡبَاحٌۖ
جیسے ایک طاق ہے (وہ طاق انسان کا جسم ہے)
ٱلۡمِصۡبَاحُ فِي زُجَاجَة
اس طاق کے اندر ایک چراغ ہے (وہ چراغ انسان کا دل ہے)
ُ فِي زُجَاجَة ٍۖ
اور چراغ ایک قندیل میں ہے ( یا اللہُ وہ قندیل کیا ہے)
كَأَنَّهَا كَوۡكَبٞ
اور قندیل (ایسی صاف شفاف ہے کہ) گویا موتی کا سا چمکتا ہوا تارہ ہے-
(گویا وہ قندیل تمہاری روح ہے جو پاک صاف و شفاف ہے گویا وہ چکمتا ہوا ستارہ (روح) نور ہے اور وہ نور اللہ پاک کی ذات سے ہے کیونکہ اللہ پاک خود نور ہے)
یا اللہ اگر ہم تجه تک پہنچنا چاہیں تو کیا کریں
يَهۡدِي ٱللَّهُ لِنُورِهِۦ
اللہ اپنے نور سے جسے چاہتا ہے ہدایت دیتا ہے
(یعنی جو شخص اللہُ کو پانا چاہتا ہے جو اللہُ سے ملنا چاہتا ہے وہ اپنی روح کی طرف آئے کہ وہ وہی نور ہے- (جو اللہ پاک کے ذاتی نور سے ہے)- وہی ہدایت ہے
وہی راز کن فیکون ہے- وہی صراط مستقیم ہے.....!!!

Diffuse Parenchymal Lung Diseases (DPLD), more commonly known as Interstitial Lung Diseases (ILD) or Lung Fibrosis is an umbrella term consists of more than 200 diverse conditions. Broadly, they can be grouped in to :
1. Reversible
2. Irreversible but static
3. Irreversible and Progressive

Obviously, irreversible and progressive ones are more important to diagnose as early as possible, specifically "UIP-IPF" : a variant which is considered to shorten life span significantly.

Diagnosing UIP-IPF is challenging & radiology - High Resolution CT Scan of Thorax aids greatly, however many times, due to lack of definite pattern, it remains undiagnosed.

Bronchoscopic Lung Cryobiopsy (BLC) - is increasingly recommended as a choice of investigation to detect UIP-IPF early, with yield compared to Surgical Lung Biopsy (SLB) particularly when radiology doesn't show definite UIP pattern in a progressive fibrotic ILD.

Sharing one such case, where a 55 years old diabetic, hypertensive, class II obese male with progressive fibrotic ILD underwent BLC & diagnosed with MDD (Multidisciplinary discussion) - with dominance of histopath data showing dense interstitial fibrosis with fibroblastic foci & minimal inflammation as UIP-IPF.

Like neoplastic processes, it is of great value to identify UIP-IPF as early as possible to start appropriate medications & increase life span.
