Preface
There is need of time, to fulfill this need there is time. In early
twentieth century there was a need of Urdu language to teach/learn
Unani System of Medicine but now it is time of globalization, where
in about all countries English is being understand.
We have precious literature in Arabic, Persian and Urdu Language
but no literature is available in English, which may fulfill the need
of time. As it is observed that in national, international seminar/
conference/workshop, experts from other discipline ask about
literature in English, as they are not aware to Urdu language. As
teacher I felt that what ever I am teaching in Urdu due to some
explanatory problem, not possible to satisfy the students. Further
more students are not of the standard to understand Urdu terms. Most
of the students come from intermediate/10+2 without urdu. These
students are English/Hindi oriented. In this state it is very difficult to
give proper knowledge to student.
In modern scenario world is being changed in a global village. We
are responsible to develop this System of Medicine. To develop it
and to transfer in a better state to next generation, it is quite essential
to give literature in such language, which is better understood. I have
tried to give Syllabus of Morakkabat prescribed by CCIM in form of
a book of Morakkabat (Unani Formulation), So that students as well
as manufacturers may get benefit to understand compound drugs
and those who do not know Urdu may get benefit of it. I am sure that
this book will get a place to fulfill basic requirement of not only of
BUMS and MD students but teachers and experts of Unani System
of Medicine and others who are very positive to traditional
Medicines.
