    No full text
    Mehmed Muizzuddin Celvetî, XVII. yüzyıl başında yaşamış ve Aziz Mahmud Hüdâyî’nin (v. 1038/1628) meclislerine katılmış bir sûfîdir. Hayatı hakkında detaylı bilgi yoktur. Günümüze ulaşan on kadar tercümesi ile tanınmakta ve bu tercümelerin muhtevası üzerinden kendisine âit bilgilere ulaşılmaktadır. Bu makalede, onun Menâzilü’s-sâlikîn tercümesi üzerinde durulmuştur. Tespitlerimize göre adı geçen risâle, Kâşânî’nin (v. 736/1335) Şerhu Menâzili’ssâirîn isimli eserinden seçilmiş bölümlerin çevirisinden oluşmaktadır. Risâlede yer alan bir kayıt bu seçme işlemini Aziz Mahmud Hüdâyî’nin yaptığını göstermektedir. Bu da risâleye ayrı bir değer katmaktadır. Risâle bu haliyle Menâzilü’s-sâirîn’in Osmanlı döneminde kimler tarafından nasıl okunduğuna ilişkin bir belge niteliğindedir. Ayrıca bu makaleyle Mehmed Muizzuddin Celvetî’nin hakkında çalışma yapılmamış diğer tercümelerine dikkat çekmek amaçlanmıştır.Mehmed Muiz al-Dīn Jalwatī was a sufi who lived at the beginning of the XVIIth century and attended to the famous sufi master Aziz Mahmoud Hudāyī’s (d. 1038/1628) circles. there is not much information about his life. He is known by about ten of his surviving translations and information on his life is deduced from the contents of these translations. In this article the focus will be upon his translation of Manāzil as-Sālikīn. According to our findings, this translation is the combination of the translations of selected parts from Kāshānī’s (d. 736/1335) work Sharh Manāzil al-Sāirīn. A statement in the treatise indicates that the selection was made by Aziz Mahmoud Hudāyī personally. This also increases the value of the treatise. Therefore, it is also considered as a document about how and by whom Manāzil as-Sāirīn was read in the Ottoman era. Additionally, our aim is to draw attention to other translations of the author on which no studies have been carried on

    The effect of mechanical stratigraphy on fracture pattern evolution and permeability in faulted carbonates - insights from analogue sandbox models

    Dilatant fractures and faults in carbonate rocks play an important role as fluid path for many applications. However, multidimensional characterization of these fractures remains a challenge due to structural complexity in multiscale. The progressive deformation of dilatant fracture in normal fault system from physical models are imaged in 3D using high resolution industrial X-ray computed tomography (CT) scanning to contribute to a better understanding of the effect of mechanical and hydraulic evolution of fracture zones in carbonates at shallow depth as observed in the field analogue. A simple setup consists of cohesive powder as analogue material, embedded by two layers of cohesionless sand. The overburden sand thickness is varied to create mechanical stratigraphy effect as a function of overburden stress. The raw 3D volume of acquired CT data were rendered and the qualitative analysis over three orthogonal 2D plane views reveals the complexity and differences in structure observed at the outer and center parts of the model. Structural complexity occurred in proximity of the main fault within the central part of model volume in which sedimentation of overburden sand into the dilatant main fault, as well as the formation of localized fault lens with complex cavity network on the boundary between cohesive powder and base sand are observed. Previous study that showed the structural style changes due to failure mode transition, from excavated scaled model with similar mechanical stratigraphy, are confirmed to be occurred in 3D as observed from the CT scan results. The CT scan data were processed for image segmentation, and the open fractures are extracted from the whole volume for quantification and visualization of the fracture geometry and connectivity in both 2D and 3D. The mechanical stratigraphy and the associated changes in fault zone geometry related to fault localization affect the overall 3D dilatancy of the model next to the effect of overburden load. The interplay between structural-mechanics control over fracture geometry parameters are inferred to be closely related to fluid flow parameters.PERMEAApplied Geophysics | IDEA Leagu

    Menyingkap Aspek Kecerdasan Profetik (Sebuah Telaah Ayat Manṭiqiyah)

    This research aims to uncover the prophetic intelligence aspect through the interpretation of Surah Āli-'Imrān [3]:190-191 as part of the manṭiqiyah verses. This research implements the Ma'nā-cum-Maghzā interpretation through four stages of analysis: linguistic, grammatical analysis, intra- and intertextual analysis, micro and macro-historical analysis, and contextual analysis. These four analyses aim to reveal the historical and contextual significance messages of Surah Āli-'Imrān [3]:190-191. The research findings demonstrate that logic plays a vital role in unravelling the most profound messages in each Quranic verse. Linguistically, the phrase Ūlil Albāb encompasses human faculties that are logical and spiritual (contemplating and remembering Allah), thus it is inaccurate if the thinking process is deemed separated in the interpretation process of revelation texts. Historically, several cases from the Hadith narrations were discovered that illustrate how the Prophet responded to several similar questions but with different answers. This exhibits that the Prophet underwent a thinking process to tailor his answers to the context and the questioner. However, reasoning alone is insufficient without the spiritual intuition because thinking without spiritual discipline can yield value-free thoughts. This kind of contemplation was bequeathed by the Prophets which the author coins as the prophetic intelligence aspect. Based on these research findings, the significance messages of Surah Ali-'Imran [3]:190-191 assert that reason is not value-free; instead, it constitutes part of the revelation interpretation apparatu

    This article focuses on the study of dynamics and the application of contextual interpretation methodologies, so that the Qur'an does not tend to only be understood as limited to literal meaning, as well as the scope of understanding the Qur'an is not only bound by place and time when it is revealed, so it rigid to apply to the present. Hermeneutic theory has been widely studied and developed by Muslim and orientalism, although the emergence of hermeneutic theory is accompanied by dynamics of difference, both pragmatically and historically, but these differences have become a motivation for academics to further develop these theories towards more good One form of development shown by the adoption of the theory of ma’na-cum-maghza initiated by Sahiron Syamsuddin can be an alternative and a solution to get out of literal and liberal claims in interpreting the Qur'an In this article the author includes one form of application of the hermeneutic theory ma’na-cum-maghza by exploring the meaning of QS. Al-Ma'un / 107: 1-7, to uncover the side of differences in textual (classical) interpretation and interpretation contextual, especially the social view of the understanding of the sura. The result is that QS, Al-Ma'un / 107: 1-7 is full of social meanings that are very closely related and have a reciprocal relationship between theological-normative meanings and social meanings expressed in the surah

    This article discussed the influence of the Fatimid Dynasty authority on the development of Islamic education in Egypt. The objective of this article was only to discuss the penetration of the Fatimid authority in developing Islamic education during this empire in Egypt led in which started since al-Muiz Lidinillah until the last Fatimid Caliph in Egypt. It was qualitative research applying a historical approach. The author found that socially, Egyptian society consisted of a group of Sunni and Shi\u27a, Africans who became the Fatimid army, the Turks who had settled in Egypt, the Ahl Dhimmah composed of Jewish and Christian, and Sudanese people who lived in Egypt. While the government system of the Fatimid Dynasty was a theocracy with the source of law based on the principle of al-Quran and Hadith related by Reviews their priests. Meanwhile, the influence of authority of this empire wasshown on the effort of Caliphs in building some Islamic educational institutions, Reviews such as the palace, mosque, house of wisdom (Dar al-Hikmah), libraries, and universities. In addition, the Caliph did not hesitate to issue a financial state in large numbers for the development of knowledge by Bringing learning resources from abroad and also sponsored the translation of foreign literature into Arabic

    Cushion hypothesis and credit risk: Islamic versus conventional banks from the MENA region.

    No full text
    Conventional banks are 'indirectly' allowed to take more risk under the shadow of sovereign guarantees. Banks commit moral hazards as any major banking crisis will be 'cushioned' by deposit insurance and bailed out using the taxpayer's money. This study offers an alternative explanation for the determinants of banks' credit risk, particularly those from the Islamic regions. Although conventional banks and Islamic banks may share state and social cushioning systems, Islamic banks are strictly prohibited by moral and religious principles from gambling with depositors' funds, even if there is a cushion available to bail them out. However, banks belonging to collective societies, such as those in the MENA area, may be inclined to take more risks due to the perception of having a larger safety net to protect them in the event of failure. We analyse these theoretical intersections by utilising a dataset consisting of 320 banks from 20 countries, covering the time span from 2006 to 2021. Our analysis employs a combination of Ordinary Least Squares (OLS), Fixed Effects (FE), and 2-step System-GMM methodologies. Our analysis reveals that Islamic banks are less exposed to credit risk compared to conventional banks. We contend that the stricter ethical and moral ground and multi-layer monitoring system amid protracted geopolitical and post-pandemic crises impacting Islamic countries contribute to the lower credit risk. We examine the consequences for credit and liquidity management in Islamic banks and the risk management strategies employed by Islamic banks, which can serve as a valuable reference for other banks.
