No full textThe Egyptian religious scholar, 'Abd al-Basit, presented this paper during the symposium held by the Islamic Organization for Medical Sciences (IOMS) in Kuwait during the period 15-17 January 1985 on the beginning and the end of human life. The main thesis of this paper is that brain death is not a reliable death criterion from an Islamic perspective. Basing his argument on the opinions of early Muslim religious scholars, the author opines that man cannot be declared dead as long as one of the vital organs, such as the heart, is still functioning. Thus, no organs can be harvested from such a person because he is still living according to the Muslim religious scholars
Dynamic composition and management of emergency response processes
No full textThe number of disasters, whether human-made or natural, has been on the rise over in the recent years; they have destroyed lives, homes, and caused widespread damage to infrastructure. The increase in disasters means there is also a higher demand for efficient response planning. Effective emergency response planning requires communication and coordination with the diverse operational systems belonging to various collaborating government agencies, non-government organizations (NGOs), and private sector entities. An essential requirement for developing an emergency response process is to establish information sharing and system-level interoperability among the operational systems of collaborating organizations. The challenge is that emergency response processes are not well-structured and do not have a well-defined outcome; they are knowledge-centric. Their workflow structure and execution may evolve dynamically based on the environmental context and the type of service or activity invoked during process execution. It is impractical to define static plans and response process workflows for every possible situation since unforeseeable situations may arise. Thus, a dynamic response requires adaptability to a changing situation as an incident evolves.
In this thesis, we develop an iterative end-to-end solution for the dynamic composition and management of an Emergency Response Management System, called Dynamic Emergency Response Processes System (DERPS). DERPS allows the Incident Commander to develop a contextualized response using ontology-based reasoning and allows its dynamic adaptation to situational changes. We also adapt and apply DERPS in the COVID-19 context. Specifically, given the pandemic’s scale and scope, home-based isolation has been considered a potential first step to reduce the spread of the virus and limit the stress on the healthcare system. However, home-based isolation needs and requirements are unique for each patient. We show how DERPS can be utilized to develop personalized patient care plans to ensure that each patient’s needs are appropriately met while they are confined to their home. We develop a prototype implementation to show the feasibility of the proposed framework and discuss challenges and issues in deploying such a system in practice.Ph.D.Includes bibliographical reference
HABITUAL ACTION DALAM KEPEMIMPINAN SPIRITUAL

Multicultural Counseling in Islamic Perspective
No full textIn this globalization and information era, the role of multicultural counseling is very urgent for the community. Given the cultural exchange between one country and another country is so massive. If a counselor only focuses on the client's person without regard to the cultural factors influence it, then the process of implementing counseling can cause bias and ineffective. In its historical development, the theory and practice of multicultural counseling is still dominated by multicultural counseling originating from the West. Meanwhile, Indonesia is a country where the majority of the population is Muslim and in terms of culture differs from rational, individualist, and materialist of Western cultures. Therefore, this paper describes multicultural counseling in an Islamic perspective as an alternative to the development of multicultural counseling in Indonesia. The different human concepts, cultures, and values developed by Islam form the basic foundation in the multicultural counseling process. From this basic difference, the author further explains the competence and practice of multicultural counseling in Islam, especially in Indonesia. In obtaining the comprehensive data, the authors conducted a qualitative study by taking data sources derived from the al-Qur'an, al-Hadith, and the results of the thinking of Muslim scientists related to multicultural counseling
