    Conservation in an Islamic context a case study of Makkah

    No full text
    The Holy Qu’ rān contains many injunctions for Muslims to respect and conserve the natural environment but few address the built environment. Habitat at the time of the Prophet (PBOH) was in the vernacular and relatively impermanent. The first habitat was the cave, the second the tent and then simple flat roofed buildings of post and lintel construction made of mud and rubble. Later buildings were not indigenous but reflected the architectural styles and techniques of Muslim pilgrims from beyond the Arabian Peninsula. Permanent exotic buildings were later erected as reminders of holy places and events. This work advances a case to restore and preserve historic and religious sites in Makkah, Saudi Arabia. Makkah is the destination for millions of Muslim pilgrims who annually pay homage to Allah during the occasions of Hajj, Ramadan and Umra. The tranquillity and peaceful ambience that one associates with the holiest of Islamic experiences have, over the years, given way to jostling crowds of people who must be expediently housed, fed, transported, and protected. Due to the lack of planning and the insensitive but profitable development of the city, Makkah is in grave danger of becoming a bustling metropolis instead of a sanctuary where pilgrims gather to perform their religious rites and reaffirm their dedication to Allah. The author calls for professional planning and international cooperation to guide future development for this expanding and sensitive area. The author's ideas are grounded in practical and aesthetic study, therefore, the political, environmental and economic issues are examined in relationship to religious, historic and artistic values. The author makes proposals for a future Makkah that would provide pilgrims with the physical comforts, security, and serene environment they deserve—without destroying the city they came to visit. The author discusses preservation and conservation in the western world and the need for their acceptance in Muslim countries, the former being an aesthetic and intellectual concept sustained by law and the latter being the prescribed free expression of the individual unhindered by material considerations. Both worlds are rapidly being overwhelmed by materialism, but body, mind and spirit combine in making us aware of our surroundings and the way in what we see around us has come into being

    The titularity of economic rights of author of literary and artistic works : comparative study of French and Egyptian positive rights

    No full text
    Le but des législateurs français et égyptien, étant , avant tout, de protéger les auteurs. La législation comporte de nombreuses dispositions spéciales et éparpillées qui dérogent au droit commun, en particulier à celui des contrats, pour mieux défendre les intérêts matériels et moraux des auteurs. Cela a nécessairement une incidence sur l’attribution initiale de la titularité des droit s patrimoniaux sur les oeuvres de l’esprit. Conséquence logique de ce but, le véritable créateur de l’oeuvre de l’esprit bénéficie ab initio de tous les droits sur son oeuvre, et ce, quelles que soient les conditions matérielles et juridiques dans lesquelles il exerce son activité créatrice. Toutefois, il convient de mettre à part de nombreuses hypothèses au sein desquelles l’attribution de la propriété des droit s patrimoniaux sur les oeuvres de l’esprit peut soulever , même sous la loi actuelle de la propriété intellectuelle en France et l’Egypte, des difficultés particulières. Il s’agit, par exemple, de l’hypothèse d’une oeuvre publiée de façon anonyme ou sous pseudonyme. Aussi, du cas des oeuvres créées en collaboration, ou en collectivité sous la direction d’une autre personne. De même, il est fréquent que l’oeuvre soit le fait d’auteurs ou d’équipes d’auteurs dans le cadre d’un contrat de travail, voire le fait d’agents de l’Etat. Même si l’auteur est un indépendant, force est de constater qu’un grand nombre d’oeuvres est créé sur commande ou conçue par une personne et réalisé par une autre personne. Il convient aussi de s’interroger sur l’incidence que peut avoir le mariage de l’auteur sous un régime de communauté quant à la titularité des droits patrimoniaux. Ces hypothèses ont-elles une véritable incidence sur l’attribution de la titularité initiale des droits patrimoniaux à l’auteur ?The destination of French and Egyptian lawmakers, is above all, protect the authors. The legislation contains numerous provisions scattered forces and to derogate from common law, particularly that of contracts, to better defend the moral and material interests of authors. This necessarily affects the initial allocation of ownership rights over the works of the mind. Logical consequence of this, the true creator of the work of the mind has ab initio all rights to his work, and this, whatever the legal and material conditions in which they exercise their creative activity. However, it is appropriate to share many assumptions in which the allocation of ownership rights over the works of the mind can raise, even under the current law of intellectual property in France and Egypt, difficulties. These include, for example, the hypothesis of a work published anonymously or pseudonymously. Also, the case of works created in collaboration or in the community under the direction of another person. Similarly, it is often the work is done the authors or teams of writers within the framework of an employment contract or the fact of state officials. Even if the author is an independent, it is clear that a large number of works created on commission or by a person designed and directed by another person. It should also consider the potential impact of the marriage of the author under a community as to the ownership of rights. These assumptions do they have a real impact on the allocation of initial ownership of rights to the author

    Al-Hijamah (Prophetic Wet Cupping Therapy) is a Novel Adjuvant Treatment for Viral Hepatitis That Excretes Viral Particles and Excess Ferritin Percutaneously, Synergizes Pharmacotherapy, Enhances Antiviral Immunity and Helps Better HCC Prevention and Treatment: A Novel Evidence-Based Combination with Prophetic Medicine Remedies

Several challenges are facing Sovaldi treatment to viral C hepatitis, eg, viral resistance, difficulty to treat all genotypes, and inability to access treatments in low-income countries. Also, current treatments to Hepatitis B are still challenging. Ideal treatments to viral hepatitis should decrease the viral load, enhance antiviral immunity and repair the viruses-induced tissue damage. That is still beyond reach. High serum ferritin in viral hepatitis correlates with chronicity, increased necro-inflammation, hepatotoxicity, progression to cirrhosis, progression to HCC, unresponsiveness to treatments and viremia. Previously, Al-hijamah (wet cupping therapy of prophetic medicine) significantly cleared thalassemic children of causative pathological substances (CPS), eg, excess ferritin, free radicals and serum lipids. Moreover, Al-hijamah significantly increased the antioxidant power and potentiated the natural antiviral immunity, eg, increasing CD4 count, CD8 count and CD4/CD8 ratio. Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him said: “If there is a benenvolence (benefit) in any of your medicines, benefit will be in shrtat mihjam (Al-hijamah), honey drink, and a stinge of fire compatible with disease and I do not like to cauterize”. Likewise, the author suggests Al-hijamah as a novel promising adjuvant treatment for viral hepatitis (B and C) for percutaneous excretion of CPS as hepatitis viral particles, excess ferritin, inflammatory mediators, free radicals, and antigen-antibody complexes. Published reports proved that Al-hijamah exerted tissue-protective effects, and cleared blood through the fenestrated skin capillaries in a pressure-dependent and size-dependent manner (a kidney-like manner). That collectively may decrease the viral load for better HCC prevention and supports the evidence-based Taibah theory (Taibah mechanism). Same therapeutic benefits apply to other viral illnesses as AIDS. Even after HCC development, Al-hijamah is quite mandatory for excretion and clearance of CPS that favor malignancy, eg, lactate (Warburg effect), growth factors, metalloproteinases, and others. Al-hijamah-induced immune potentiation benefits HCC patients. Combining Al-hijamah with other natural antioxidant remedies of prophetic medicine, eg, nigella sativa, costus, natural honey, Zamzam water and others will maximize the therapeutic benefits. In conclusion, Al-hijamah and other prophetic medicine remedies are recommended adjuvants to current pharmacological treatments to viral hepatitis and HCC.Keywords: hepatitis viruses, Al-hijamah, wet cupping therapy, prophetic medicine, Taibah theory, fenestrated skin capillaries and serum ferriti

    ضمانات «مبدأ عدم تجريد المواطن من جنسيته تعسفاً» في قوانين دول مجلس التعاون الخليجي

    تتناول هذه الدراسة «مبدأ عدم تجريد المواطن من جنسيته تعسفًا »، الذي نُص عليه في الإعلان العالمي لحقوق الإنسان، وفي العديد من الاتفاقيات الإقليمية. ويرى الباحث أن هذا المبدأ لا يمكن أن يؤتي ثماره في الواقع العملي إلا إذا اقترن بمجموعة من الضمانات. تتمثل هذه الضمانات في تحديد حالات التجريد من الجنسية بأداة تشريعية لا تقل عن «قانون ،» وأن تبين هذه الحالات على وجه التحديد والدقة، وألا يُبنى التجريد تشريعًا أو ممارسةً على التمييز بين الأفراد لأسباب تتعلق بالجنس أو الدين أو العرق أو الطائفة أو اللون أو الرأي السياسي أو غيرها. كما تتمثل هذه الضمانات في أن يكون قرار التجريد من الجنسية شخصيًّا، لا يتعدى من صدر في حقه إلى غيره من أبنائه أو زوجته، وأخيرًا، أن يكون القرار الصادر بالتجريد من الجنسية مكتوبًا ومسببًا، وقابلًا للطعن فيه أمام جهة قضائية مستقلة ومحايدة. حاول الباحث في هذه الدراسة أن يبرز مفهوم كل ضمانة من ضمانات مبدأ عدم تجريد المواطن من جنسيته تعسفًا، ثم بحث في تشريعات دول مجلس التعاون الخليجي الناظمة لأحكام الجنسية عن مدى كفالتها لمثل تلك الضمانات. وقد وجد في تشريعات الجنسية في دول المجلس العديد من الأمثلة على عدم توافقها مع هذه الضمانات، كعدم حصر حالات التجريد على وجه الدقة، واتساعها أمام إدراج أفعال غير متناهية من خلال عبارات فضفاضة كالمصلحة العامة ومصلحة الدولة والإضرار بمصالح البلاد وغيرها. كما وجد مثالًا نادرًا على حالة تجريد بُنيت على التمييز كسحب الجنسية في حال ارتداد الشخص عن دينه. أما بشأن شخصية التجريد وعدم تعديه إلى غيره ممن يتبعه، فلم تكتفِ بعض تشريعات المجلس بقصر هذا الأمر على حالة الحصول على الجنسية عن طريق الغش والتزوير، بل تجاوزته لتسحب الجنسية ممن تحققت في شأنه حالات أخرى أيضًا. وأخيرًا لا تشترط تشريعات دول المجلس تسبيب قرارات سحب الجنسية أو إسقاطها، كما أن بعض هذه التشريعات نص صراحة على عدم اختصاص المحاكم بنظر المسائل المتعلقة بالجنسيةThis article deals with the principle of “arbitrary denaturalization of citizens” as stipulated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and in many regional conventions. The author believes that this principle can only be realized in practice if accompanied by a set of guarantees. These guarantees are to identify denaturalization cases with a legislative instrument that is no less than the law, to specifically and accurately identify such cases, and for legislation not to be created based on discriminating practices of individuals on the grounds of sex, religion, race, sect, color, political opinion or other such reasons. These guarantees should also ensure that a denaturalization decision should remain individual and not exceed the targeted person to include other family members such as spouses and children. Finally, the denaturalization decision should be written and justified and challengeable before an independent and impartial judicial body. The author attempted to highlight the concept of every guarantee of the principle of arbitrary denaturalization of a citizen. The legislations of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states governing the provisions of naturalization were then examined to determine the extent of such guarantees. In the naturalization legislations of GCC states, there are many examples of incompatibility with these guarantees, such as the lack of precise definition of denaturalization conditions, which can result from countless causes. Definitions of denaturalization conditions are loosely phrased, such as violations to public interest, the state’s interests, the country’s interests, etc. A rare case of denaturalization recorded based on discrimination was for a person who renounced his religion. As for the individualism of denaturalization and that it should not include subordinates of the targeted person, some GCC legislations do not restrict this to cases of fraudulent or forged naturalization; the move applies to people denaturalized for other reasons. Finally, legislations of GCC states do not require justifying decisions to withdraw or nullify naturalization; some of these legislations expressly state that courts do not have jurisdiction over matters relating to naturalization

    AbstractThis data article contains supporting information regarding the research article entitled “Combined effect of permeant and non-permeant cryoprotectants on the quality of frozen/thawed chicken sperm”(Mosca et. al., 2016) [1]. The combined effect of the permeant cryoprotectants agent dimethylacetamide and the non-permeant cryoprotectants agent trehalose on the quality of frozen-thawed chicken semen was assessed. In particular, the quantitative dimethylacetamide/trehalose ratio was investigated freezing semen samples according to the following treatments: trehalose 0.1M+0% dimethylacetamide (DMA-0), trehalose 0.1M+3% dimethylacetamide (DMA-3), trehalose 0.1M+6% dimethylacetamide (DMA-6)
