Finally, the study found that the major challenges undergraduates face with the use of library services during examination includes lack of space, inadequate number of computers, lack of comfortable seats, poor Internet services, inadequate power outlets for the students’ laptops and lack of assistance from library staff. The study then recommended that Library management should constitute a section of the library for user needs elicitation. Library space should be well furnished and more space could be freed up in the Library if some of the old resources of the library are weeded and made into closeaccess. They will only be accessed if they are demanded for. The library management could also partition some of the available spaces to make way for areas for small group discussions. Library Management could embark on advocacy to Government parastatals that donate ICTs free of charge. Parastatals like NITDA, NCC and even Ministry of Communication. This will help them secure the additional ICTs for undergraduate use
Musa b. Ukbe’nin (v. 141/ 758) Siyer’e dair rivayetlerinin değerlendirilmesi (hz. Muhammed’in nübüvvetine kadar)
No full textHz. Muhammed’in hayatının peygamberlik öncesi dönemi hakkında İslam Tarihi kaynaklarında oldukça farklı rivayetler mevcuttur. Üstelik bu farklılık çok erken dönemlerden itibaren mevcuttur. Bu farklılıkların mümkünse sebeplerinin anlaşılabilmesi veya en azından hangi bilginin daha güvenilir ve tercihe şayan olduğunun belirlenebilmesi amacıyla İslami ilimlerin kendine has yöntemi olan “isnad” kullanılarak ve İslam tarihinin çok geniş sahası ilk dönemle sınırlanıp Megāzî müellifi olduğu iddia edilen ve bu sahada hemen her olayın farklı bir anlatımına rastladığımız Musa b. Ukbe’nin rivayetleri tezin merkezinde tutulmak suretiyle konu ile ilgili diğer rivayetlerin değerlendirilmesi önemli görülmektedir. Zira böylece erken dönem İslam tarihi çalışmalarında çok problemli bir alan olan Hz. Muhammed’in peygamberlik öncesi dönemi hem aydınlatılma hem de çeşitli spekülasyonlardan arındırılma imkanına sahip olacaktır. Ukbe, Megāzî, Siyer, İslam Tarihi, Hz. Muhammed, Peygamberlik Öncesi, Rivayet.There are widely different narratives about the pre-prophecy life of the Prophet Muhammad in the early Islamic sources. It seems important to review relative narratives about the subject and the thesis focuses on the narratives of Musa b. Uqba, the author of a maghazi, who uses the way of “isnad”, a specific method in Islamic scholarship to understand variations. This would help us identify reliable data in the early Islamic period. Thus, it’ll be possible to light and purify from speculations the pre-prophecy life of the Prophet Muhammad, which is very problematical area in the early Islamic history. Key Words: Musa b. Uqba, Maghazi, Siyar, History of İslam, Mohammed, Pre-prophecy, Narrative

The role of Bank Negara Malaysia in limiting imprudent consumption
No full textThis study identifies the role that Bank Negara Malaysia plays in regulating imprudent consumption. In doing so, the author reviews the Guidelines on Responsible Financing introduced by the Bank in 2012 to regulate the consumer credit market. Since consumers are highly dependent on credit to purchase what they desire, the Bank tightened lending procedures. The author also argues that despite the claimed ethical superiority of Islamic finance, there is no apparent difference when it comes to providing loans (or rather financing) to consumers. The findings of this study suggest that such procedures reduced the growth of household borrowing and consumer loans/financing. As such, the study concludes that Bank Negara Malaysia has an effective role to play in limiting the negative effects of imprudent consumption

He is a graduate of the University of Maiduguri, and has a Bachelor’s degree in Linguistics. He said that his interest in Kanuri Ajami, coupled with his background (being Kanuri himself and a linguist), motivate him to develop a collection of Kanuri Ajami texts. Alhaji Bashir has extensive Islamic knowledge and currently works for the Borno State government.This manuscript is a very short work in Arabic with extensive explicatory glosses in Kanuri Ajami. It has two parts. The first is Shaykh Muḥammad Ṣāliḥ’s work dealing with tawḥīd (oneness of God), the five pillars of Islam, the attributes of Allāh, the articles of faith, and elaborated notes on the characteristics of the Almighty God. The second part of the work deals with anger, anxiety, and depression. It provides words of wisdom on how to manage, control and eradicate these conditions. Both parts (tawḥīd and anger management) are written as poems. It is unclear whether the author of the first part is the same as author of the second part. The manuscript reflects the long history of Islamic scholarship in Kanem-Borno. The manuscript is unbound, complete, easy to read, and has no damaged pages. The total number of pages is only 11.The contents of this collection were developed with support of the Title VI National Resource Center grant # P015A180164 from the U.S. Department of Education.

Three objectives of this study include: to identify the types of information are disseminated to Student Applicants to the Department of Library and Information Science, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria. To identify the Channels are used by the Department of Library and Information Science in disseminating information to Student Applicants. To find out the challenges associated with information dissemination to Student Applicants to the Department of Library and Information Science, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria. Two hundred and twenty undergraduate students were sampled for the study, but only one hundred and ninety-four questionnaires were deemed fit and appropriate for analysis. The study discovered that Entry requirements and Undergraduate programmes available in the department were the types of information that is disseminated by the department. However, information about sales of forms and jamb subject combinations are disseminated by Jamb office.

The study then recommended that the departments in the university should be put in charge of admission information dissemination for their respective departments. This is because they know best the requirements of their respective departments and the information that student applicants need. And that A multi-channel digital call centre should be provided for all departments that will house a digital help desk. This centre will incorporate telephone, email, social media (WhatsApp Group, Face book Fan page, Twitter Handle and Instagram pages) for the department. This is so that student applicants can contact the department without having to come to Zaria
The effect of diosgenin and condensed tannin in Musa x paradisiaca flower on rats milk composition and growth rate of suckling pups
No full textThe presence of secondary compounds has been recognized to have a profound effect upon both the nutritive and feeding value of foods. These effects are beneficial in some instances. In this study, a steroid saponin known as diosgenin and condensed tannin from Musa x paradisiaca flower were evaluated for its potential efficacy in accelerating growth rate of Sprague Dawley suckling pups. Nutrients composition of milk collected from the nursing rats using a modified mechanical device after an injection of oxytoxin were also determined. Pups growth rates (g/day) for all treatments groups were measured as the slope of the regression of y = pup weight versus x = day of lactation. Pups growth rate was significantly improved for the groups treated with the aqueous and diosgenin extract in which the equation are y = 1.871x – 0.271 and y = 1.712x + 2.059, compared to negative control, metochlopramide and tannin which are y = 1.434x + 2.221, y = 1.349x + 3.602 and y = 1.221x + 5.397, respectively. The proximate value in dry weight basis of milk showed that it contains of moisture, fat, protein, ash and carbohydrate of 4.179 – 5.739 %, 36.248 – 45.563 %, 30.323 – 34.293 %, 6.52 - 8.451 % and 10.475 – 16.751 %, respectively. High protein content measured in milk of diosgenin extract group suggests a possible effect of the extract in improving growth rate of the suckling pups
Intellectual property laws and Islam in Malaysia.
No full textPhDThis study is undertaken on the premise that Islam and Islamic law is to be taken into
serious consideration in any future legislative reform of laws in Malaysia. Islam being
the religion of the country and the strong religious sentiment of the Muslims (who
form the majority in Malaysia) cannot be overlooked or dismissed lightly by the
legislators in Malaysia. Reformation of intellectual property laws is timely, as we are
now approaching to the dateline set by GATF-Trips agreement which aim is to
improve our standard of intellectual property protection. This study seeks to analyze
and evaluate the current legislation pertaining to intellectual property in Malaysia in
terms of the philosophy and rules governing the existence, ownership and exercise of
these rights and their consistency and inconsistency with Islam and Islamic law. The
main objective of this study is to prove that a coherent and logical conceptual
framework of ownership of intellectual property can be derived from an Islamic
perspective which not only offers the basis of rights but also defines the scope of
these rights. From the point of ownership of rights, support can be obtained from the
normative framework of property rights within the traditional classification of 'mal'
(property) and 'haqq al-milkiyyah' (ownership rights) under Islamic law. From the
point of exercise of rights, the exact scope can be defined from the analysis of
fundamental concepts which have been developed by Muslim jurists. It has been
established that Islam and Islamic law offers a sound and systematic paradigm, which
in deeper analysis, can satisfy both our current obligations under international
treatises, as well as our responsibility to practise our religion to the fullest
