    Inabah, founded by Syeikh Ahmad Sahibul Wafa Tajul Ariffin, the head of the boarding school of Suryalaya, East Coast, West Java, Indonesia, is an alternative method for recovering those involved in drug abuse and moral damages. This method has been recognized in several countries in the region and has gained national and international recognition. This method is based on the spiritual practice of Islam and is based on the thought of its founder as a religious leader. His thoughts have been scattered throughout some of his and his students' works, but this aspect has not been studied in detail by researchers. Therefore, this study was conducted to better understand the thinking of the founding figures underlying the formulation of the method. This study is a descriptive qualitative study and uses documentation method as data collection method. For this reason, the works produced by Syeikh Ahmad and his students' works which included his teachings on the subject, were studied and analysed using document analysis methods. The practices devised and formulated into this method of recovery, in addition to basic religious practices, have spiritual values that contribute to the purification of the soul, which is the basic philosophy of healing through the method of death, as explained by its founder. Research has found that Syeikh Ahmad based the method on the principle of "returning to God", through the method of purification of the soul (tazkiyat al-nafs), which is based on three main practices, such as bathing, prayer and remembrance, and is enshrined in qiyam al-layl, fasting, prayer and manners

The purpose of this literature review is to scope the evidences on interventions for decreasing patient anxiousness during the perioperative care and in particular for obstetrics and gynecology patients. It was hypothesized that techniques, which reduce anxiety, will have a beneficial impact on pain reduction. The current study seeks also to provide a design to conceptualize the benefits of introducing psych-education and hypnotherapy as an adjunct to perioperative care. This literature review was completed using electronic databases such as PubMed, CINAHL, EMBASE, and TRIP. The current study analyzed 40 articles from the year 1970 to 2019. The reviewed articles selected identified the effectiveness of hypnosis as a treatment option for obstetrics and gynecology patients, specifically for pain management in laboring women. The study concluded that the addition of hypnosis showed success in controlling pain among laboring women. The current study identified that when nursing staff are provided with information and or training in hypnosis and self-hypnosis laboring women receive broader treatment options for anxiety and pain management. Routine education programs on hypnosis and self-hypnosis designed to reduce the discomfort and pain of women during labor may also provide benefit. The current study reviewed the benefit of psycho-education and hypnotherapy for pain management offered to obstetrics and gynecology patients when nurses and or patients or both are provided with this information

    Do Regulation, Maqasid Shariah and Institutional Parameter Improve Islamic bank Efficiency

    No full text
    We use a new dataset on Islamic banks to link regulation and bank efficiency. Specifically, we examine how bank efficiency is influenced by: (i) bank regulation, (ii) institutional variables, (iii) economic freedom, and (iv) Shariah law parameters. Our hypothesis attempts to prove that better regulation will produce a higher level of efficiency. We will also try to prove that the Shariah law parameter will promote better efficiency among Islamic banks. Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is used to measure efficiency, while the panel data method is used to analyse the data. Specifically, our results suggest that a significant relationship exists between bank efficiency and greater restrictions on Islamic bank activities. The results also show that regulatory quality has a positive and significant impact on bank efficiency. The negative coefficient of the economic freedom indicates that Islamic banks have a greater ability to enter into the banking industry and obtain an easy licence, create products and services, and close the business. All would dampen bank efficiency. Overall, our findings support the argument that regulation should be adapted to the risk and size level of the Islamic banks that are being regulated

    Majlis Agama Islam Dan Adat Melayu Terengganu (MAIDAM) merupakan sebuah badan yang bertanggungjawab dalam mengurus dan mentadbir segala berkaitan mengenai kedudukan wakaf di negeri ini. Salah satu pengurusan yang terlibat adalah membangun dan memajukan tanah-tanah wakaf dari pelbagai aspek, sama ada pembangunan keagamaan, komersial dan sebagainya. Sumber peruntukan merupakan salah satu perkara penting untuk memaju dan membangun bagi setiap manamana tanah wakaf. Terdapat beberapa projek pembangunan wakaf di bawah peruntukan persekutuan iaitu RMK-Ke 9 dan Ke 10. Di bawah peruntukkan ini, kos perbelanjaan tertinggi adalah pembinaan projek hotel wakaf (Grand Puteri Hotel) berbanding dengan projek wakaf yang lain. Permasalahan yang wujud terhadap pembinaan hotel tersebut iaitu terdapat di kalangan masyarakat terutamanya para penerima bantuan zakat mempersalahkan pihak MAIDAM kerana bangunan tersebut dibina daripada peruntukan wang zakat. Objektif kajian ini menjelaskan kedudukan sebenar pembinaan hotel wakaf dan apakah sumbangan manfaat kepada masyarakat setempat di negeri ini. Kajian ini menggunakan kaedah kualitatif iaitu memperolehi data-data kajian daripada pihak MAIDAM serta turut dijalankan proses temu bual terhadap beberapa pegawai di jabatan tersebut. Kajian ini mendapati bahawa bangunan hotel wakaf dibina bukan daripada wang zakat, peruntukan sebenar adalah daripada dana Kerajaan Persekutuan melalui saluran pihak Jabatan Wakaf, Zakat Dan Haji (JAWHAR). Kos pembinaan bangunan tersebut adalah sebanyak 41.68 Juta dan siap sepenuhnya pada 8 April 2013. Hasil manfaat daripada bangunan ini diagihkan dalam bentuk skim bantuan wakaf. Kajian ini juga mendapati penerima yang tertinggi daripada agihan manfaat wakaf adalah bagi daerah Kuala Terengganu sebanyak 42.7%. Manakala jenis bantuan pula yang tertinggi adalah aspek sosial melalui skim bantuan Bencana Alam sebanyak 34.5%. Justifikasi saluran manfaat kepada masyarakat setempat adalah signifikan kerana para penerima yang ramai adalah di dalam daerah Kuala Terengganu. Ini mengambil kira hotel wakaf adalah berada dalam daerah yang sama. Rumusannya, hartanah wakaf adalah penting dibangunkan, secara tidak langsung hasil manfaat akan diterima oleh pihak masyarakat walaupun dalam bentuk sekala yang lebih kecil berbanding agihan yang lain seperti bantuan daripada Jabatan Kebajikan Masyarakat (JKM), bantuan zakat dan sebagainya

    Suicidal ideation behaviour is a subjective mental health problem. However, there are some studies related to suicidal behaviour based on the conceptual framework by other researchers. Early detection of suicidal intent among addicts is important to ensure they do not take further action that could result in death. This study was conducted to component an instrument of suicidal ideation behaviour among drug addicts to track the level of suicidal intentions. This psychometric instrument is built based on the situation in Malaysia. The instrument of suicidal behaviour is based on four component namely interpersonal conflict, emotional disorder, depression and hopelessness. Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) is used to analyse the validity and Cronbach’s alpha for use reliability test of each item. In terms of the validity of the items used, the value of the loading factor obtained is 0.450-0.895. This value range indicates that this item is acceptable and suitable for the instrument. The result showed significant consequences for developing suicidal ideation behaviour among drug addicts. The results showed that the SIBA instrument had a high Cronbach's Alpha value of 0.858 (interpersonal conflict) 0.858 (emotional disorder), 0.831 (depression) and 0.895 (hopelessness). The results of this study clearly show that the instrument has a high reliability and thus can be used in assessing suicidal ideation behaviour among drug addicts. In conclusion, this study can show that the component instrument can be used to measure the level of suicidal behaviour among drug addicts who are undergoing treatment at the rehabilitation centre
