Practice of the Muslim Brotherhood between Malaysia and Bangladesh
Full text linkSocio-religious contact and practice of the Muslim brotherhood between contemporary Malaysia and Bangladesh are responsive, robust, and cordial and have been maintained reciprocally since the early days. Their historical linkages commemorate through multidimensional correspondence with due attention to socio-cultural relationships. This paper aims to examine the genesis of socio-religious contact and practice of the Muslim brotherhood aspects that crop up in the relationships of Malaysia and Bangladesh from the early days to the contemporary period. Over time the reciprocal cooperation between these two nations reached a legitimately accepted position. The bilateral socio-religious strands were favourable to each other and got well-precedence. The relation is symptomatic by traditional and a new bilateral buildout exercising all societal promptness, including religious and friendly Muslim brotherhood collaboration and cooperation. From this viewpoint, outlining the features of these two country’s thought-provoking socio-religious relationships and people to people connections established through the practice of Islamic activities is time expedient. This study applies the historiographic approach and consults the primary and secondary literature, including reports, files and agreements, newspapers, and books and articles. The significance of the finding of this study is the answer back to the questions regarding the features and phenomena of both country’s reciprocating and noteworthy Islamic and religious practices with Muslims considering the Muslim brotherhood
Digital Islamic Studies and the Pedagogy: Non-Specialist Undergraduate Crossing into the Study of the Qurʾān
Full text linkIn acquiring knowledge and skills to practise medicine and health sciences integrated with Islamic studies, several courses are introduced in the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia. The present paper documents one such course on the thematic study of the Qurʾān, undertaken by second-year undergraduates of the second year in an introductory level on the science and medicine in the Qurʾān and Sunnah. Students in the course combined the traditional tools of Qurʾānic studies with computational tools to discover, depict, and develop new insights into the scientific, cultural, and educational exegesis of the Qurʾān. Also, the present paper has attempted to shed light on how the various methods and approaches emerging under the umbrella of digital Islamic studies hold great promise for any undergraduate students, faculty, and independent researchers in academic programmes. Although several factors may explain the insufficiency of the integrated approach, the primary hindrance for undergraduates in the Malaysian context is plain to see: the scarcity of digital sources in Malay and English. While this impediment remains a constraint for all but a few undergraduates who have a reading knowledge of the Arabic language, the recent publication of several Malay and English translations of the Qurʾān and key exegeses has begun to open the door for digital Islamic studies projects in the teaching of non-specialist undergraduate context. Finally, it seems optimistic to advance the study of the Qurʾān introduced by scholars of our generation and earlier through these digital tools to make sure that they are preserved and practised for the future
A Review of The Notion of Healthy Eating Practices In Islam For A Healthy Lifestyle
Full text linkThe number of obesity and diseases related to obesity increases globally, which imposes a burden on healthcare costs. The first line to prevent these is by practising a healthy lifestyle, particularly healthy eating practices from the early years.

Proper techniques like moderation in oral intake, masticating food well, eating fruit before a meal and consuming vegetable oil like olive oil are techniques practised by the Prophet Muhammad PBUH. Fasting, as a scientifically promoted method for a healthier life, was practised much earlier by the Prophet Muhammad PBUH This review likewise describes the halalan tayyiban foods, which are an essential part of daily eating practices

A Systematic-Thematic Analysis on The Pattern of Research with regards to Maqāsid al-Sharīʿah in Islamic Finance
Full text linkThe study aims to investigate the pattern of the research with regard to maqāsid al-Sharīʿah in Islamic finance from the year 2015 until 2020. It is pertinent for the current pattern of research to be systematically and thematically analysed so that the identified research gap could be duly addressed. Regardless of the abundance of previous literature which discussed maqāsid al-Sharīʿah in general, to the best knowledge of the authors, there is no systematic-thematic review paper discussing the current literature pattern regarding maqāsid al-Sharīʿah in Islamic finance. This study focuses on English journals without denying the fact that maybe other literature in another language might as well exist. The ATLAS.ti software was used in analysing the data systematically and thematically via the matrix table, open network diagram and word cloud analysis. The methodology of this paper begins with the systematic screening process based on PRISMA subsequently followed by a thematic review approach. The screening process begins with the keyword search and inclusion criteria by using four databases namely Scopus, Emerald, Science Direct and Mendeley. The process has resulted in the identification of 104 indexed journals. However, the finalised items are 24 journals with 13 initial codes subsequently summarized into five main themes: Sharīʿah contracts, economics, Islamic banking, microfinance/ microcredit & Value Based Intermediation, Sustainable Development Goals and waqf. The analysis of results shows that the concentration areas are identified in waqf, Islamic economics and Islamic banking. Therefore, future research should further focus on the other segments such as technologies in the industrial revolution, takāful, Islamic capital market and Islamic social finance.

تسعى هذه الدراسة إلى تحليل قصيدة "سمر في السجن" لشاعر فلسطيني توفيق زياد، وذلك من أجل استكشاف كيف كان توفيق زياد يشارك تجربته الشخصية أثناء اعتقاله مع المجتمع وكيف يستخدم قصيدته لإبراز القضية الفلسطينية عبر كلماته المؤثرة أولاً ثم الدفاع عن وطنه ثانياً. حاولت هذه الدراسة أيضا تسليط الضوء على آراء النقاد في تفسير معنى أدب السجون نظرا لأنهم يختلفون في تفسيره. وقد اعتمدت الدراسة على المنهج الوصفي التحليلي حيث يقوم على تحليل موضوع السجن، في قصيدة المشار إليها. توصلت الدراسة إلى أن أدب السجون ليس عبارة عن كتابةٍ إبداعيةٍ كتبت داخل السجن فحسب، وإنما كتابةٌ تناولت قضية السجن، وحالة السجناء المؤلمة، ومدى معاناتهم وراء الزنزانة. وقد خلصت الدراسة إلى أن قصيدة "سمر في السجن" تحتوي على قضية السجن والعناصر النضالية والصمود التي تشجع كل شعب فلسطين للانتفاضة والمقاومة ومن ثم تحرير وطنهم من قسوة الاحتلال.

An Analysis of the Prophetic Traditions Concerning Women in Bisyāratul ‘Ᾱmilīn Wa Nadhāratul Ghāfilīn
Full text linkThis study aims to analyze the Prophetic traditions or hadiths concerning women found in a Malay work known as Bisyāratul ‘Āmilīn Wa Nadhāratul Ghāfilīn. It was written by Sheikh Ahmad al-Fatani, and its first edition was printed by Matba\u27ah al-Miriyyah in Mecca in 1887. It was also reprinted several times and was published in both Jawi and Romanized scripts. As an important book that contains religious teachings, there are many hadiths referred to by the author to support his arguments; however, not all hadiths were written in detail by clarifying their level of authenticity. By focusing on one chapter of this book, this study collects all the Prophetic traditions concerning women in that chapter and re-analyzes them based on the method of takhrīj hadith (grading and commentaries of hadith). The research method used is largely qualitative and consists of a textual approach and content analysis. The findings show different statuses of hadiths concerning women found in a chapter of this book. However, it does not indicate that the author has no awareness regarding this matter. The author might have his reason for including many different traditions related to the Prophet in this book
