Riwayat Israiliyyat dalam tafsir Al-Quran: persepsi pensyarah pengajian Islam di IPTA terpilih di Malaysia
No full textRiwayat Israiliyyat mempunyai beberapa impak negatif yang boleh ditemui dalam kitab-kitab Tafsir al-Quran. Pelbagai usaha memurnikan dan membersihkan tafsiran-tafsiran ayat al-Quran dari fahaman yang tidak menepati kemurnian aqidah dan tata susila telah giat dijalankan sejak dahulu lagi. Lalu kajian ini dijalankan untuk mengetahui tahap pengetahuan dan pemahaman para pensyarah terhadap riwayat Israiliyyat yang tersebar, mengenal pasti sejauh mana tahap kesedaran para pensyarah akan bahaya dan kepentingan riwayat Israiliyyat tersebut, dan menilai bagaimana cara mereka menyampaikan riwayat Israiliyyat tersebut khususnya riwayat yang menjejas akidah. Metod kajian menggunakan kaedah kajian lapangan yang melibatkan responden seramai 101 pensyarah daripada lima institut pengajian tinggi awam dan swasta iaitu Univesiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM), Universiti Islam Antarabangsa Malaysia (UIAM), Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM), Universiti Malaya (UM) dan Kolej Universiti Islam Antarabangsa Selangor (KUIS). Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa kesedaran dikalangan pensyarah akan bahaya Israiliyyat dapat dikenal pasti, meskipun mereka mendapati ada beberapa kepentingan dalam sebahagian riwayat Israiliyyat yang disokong oleh syariat Islam
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
Investing in the ummatic cause: the philanthropic activities of ‘Abd Allāh ibn ‘Alawī al-’Aṭṭās (d. 1929)
Get PDF‘Abd Allāh ibn ‘Alawī al-’Aṭṭās (d. 1929) was born into a wealthy family and became a well-known Hadrami property-owner in Batavia (Jakarta). He lived in a dynamic era in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, which witnessed the awakening of the Hadrami community in the Netherlands East Indies or colonial Indonesia. As a strong supporter of Islamic reformism, he was heavily involved in disseminating the idea of progress and sponsoring a number of revivalist efforts, particularly in the field of education. His substantial financial contribution in this regard earned him a prominent reputation, although this was not always understood by his own community. However, his revivalist and philanthropic activities are rarely studied in depth. This article will discuss al-’Aṭṭās’ financial
support toward the promotion of the ummatic cause in the
Netherlands East Indies. The question of how his financial
contributions were directed to improve the conditions of the
ummah will be addressed thoroughly. This study uses the
historical method and employs a number of primary sources
that have not been widely used. It also utilizes research
about charity and philanthropy to enrich the discussion. This
study will, hopefully, broaden our understanding of the role
of philanthropic activities in an effort to infuse revivalism in
the Muslim society through one of its main proponents in the
Netherlands East Indies
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
