The author succeeded offering solutions with various contradictions, conflicts, handling down the novel as manifestation in real life
DIMENSI PSIKOLOGIS PEMAKNAAN AZAB NERAKA DALAM SURAT AL-WAQI’AH (Studi Kasus Kelompok Kajian Al-Miftah Ahmad)
No full textABSTRAK
Azab neraka adalah hukuman dari Allah untuk para pendosa,
baik dari kalangan mukmin maupun non mukmin (orang-orang kafir,
munafik dan musrik). Kehidupan di dunia hanyalah sementara dan
tempat untuk bersenda gurau. Sedangkan akhirat adalah tempat
terakhir kita untuk pulang. Dalam akhirat terdapat dua pilihan dimana
semua yang kita kerjakan di dunia ada pertanggung
jawabannyayaitusurga dan neraka. Ketika kita membahas tentang azab
neraka, tidak menutup kemungkinan seseorang tidak merasakan
respon psikologis baik respon fisik atau non fisik.
Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui bagaimana
pemaknaan azab neraka menurut ustadz Baha‟udin Ahmad selaku
pengajar tafsir di TPA tersebut, perbandingan makna azab neraka
dalam surat Al-Waqi‟ah yang disampaikan oleh sang ustadz dengan
tafsir yang penulis pakai yaitu Tafsir Al-Mishbah karya M. Quraish
Shihab, serta dimensi psikologis kelomok kajian TPA Al-Miftah
Ahmad yang terletak di Desa Karangsari, Kecamatan Ketapang,
Lampung Selatan terhadap penafsiran tentang azab neraka terebut.
Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode
kualitatif dengan pendekatan pustaka dan lapangan. Sumber data
penelitian ini diperoleh dari wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi,
dan ditinjau dari beberapa kepustakaan.
Adapun hasil penelitian ini yaitu: makna azab neraka menurut
kelompok kajian Al-Miftah Ahmad adalah suatu hukuman yang
diberikan oleh Allah untuk orang-orang yang melanggar perintah-Nya.
Dengan adanya makna tersebut dapat ditemukan perbandingan
pemaknaan azab neraka dalam surat Al-Waqi‟ah antara kelompok
kajian Al-Miftah Ahmad dengan M. Quraish Shihab, dalam kitab
tafsirnya Quraish Shihab hanya menjelaskan bentuk-bentuk azab
neraka dalam surat Al-Waqi‟ah tidak menjelakan makna dari azab
nerakanya sedangkan kelompok kajian Al-Miftah Ahmad menjelaskan
secara detail makna dan bentuk azab neraka. Respon kelompok kajian
Al-Miftah Ahmad setelah mendengar ustadz Baha‟udin Ahmad
menjelaskan tentang azab neraka bermacam-macam ada yang takut,
sedih, gelisah, bahkan sampai menangis karena teringat dosa yang
telah mereka perbuat. Semua jam‟ah mempercayai bahwa azab neraka
itu benar adanya.

ABSTRAK
The punishment of hell is a punishment from Allah for
sinners, both believers and non-believers (unbelievers, hypocrites and
polytheists). Life on earth is only temporary and a place for fun. While
the afterlife is our last place to go home. In the afterlife there are two
choices where everything we do in this world is accountable, namely
heaven and hell. When we talk about the punishment of hell, it is
possible that someone does not feel a psychological response, either a
physical or non-physical response.
The purpose of this study was to find out how the meaning of
the punishment of hell according to Ustadz Baha'udin Ahmad as a
teacher of interpretation at the TPA, the comparison of the meaning of
the punishment of hell in the letter Al-Waqi'ah delivered by the ustadz
with the interpretation that the author used, namely Tafsir Al-Mishbah
by M. Quraish Shihab, as well as the psychological dimensions of the
Al-Miftah Ahmad TPA study group located in Karangsari Village,
Ketapang District, South Lampung on the interpretation of the
punishment of hell.
The method used in this research is a qualitative method with
a literature and field approach. The data sources of this research were
obtained from interviews, observations, and documentation, and were
reviewed from several literatures.
The results of this study are: the meaning of the punishment
of hell according to the study group of Al-Miftah Ahmad is a
punishment given by Allah to those who violate His commands. With
this meaning, it can be found a comparison of the meanings of the
punishment of hell in the letter Al-Waqi'ah between the study group of
Al-Miftah Ahmad and M. Quraish Shihab, in his book of commentary
Quraish Shihab only explains the forms of the punishment of hell in
the letter Al-Waqi'ah not explained the meaning of the punishment of
hell while the study group Al-Miftah Ahmad explained in detail the
meaning and form of the punishment of hell. The response of the Al�Miftah Ahmad study group after hearing Ustadz Baha'udin Ahmad
explain about the punishment of hell varies, some are afraid, sad,
anxious, even cry because they remember the sins they have
committed. All jam'ah believe that the punishment of hell is true.

Integrating GIS, remote sensing and mathematical modelling for surface water quality management in irrigated watersheds
No full textThe intensive uses of limited water resources, the growing population rates and the various increasing human activities put high and continuous stresses on these resources. Major problems affecting the water quality of rivers, streams and lakes may arise from inadequately treated sewage, poor land use practices, inadequate controls on the discharges of industrial waste waters, uncontrolled poor agricultural practices, excessive use of fertilizers, and a lack of integrated watershed management. This study explores the impact of these pollution problems and the water quality degradation of Irrigated agricultural watersheds When the watersheds have a complex physical basis of interacting water bodies such as canals, drains and coastal lagoons as in the case of irrigated watersheds in coastal river Deltas, and when these environments are ‘data scarce environments’, the problems of managing water quality becomes more obvious and the need for reliable solutions becomes an urgent requirement. This study focused on the management of surface water quality problems in such watersheds and the importance of taking into consideration all the watershed components and the effects of pollution from the upstream canals on the downstream coastal lakes. In this study a generic framework for a (Water Quality Management Information System) is developed depending on the integration of physically based hydrodynamic and water quality models with GIS capabilities and the spatial and temporal capabilities of remote sensing in water quality modeling. The application is developed and tested for the Edko drainage catchment and shallow lake system in the western part of the Nile Delta, Egypt. The developed framework includes a hierarchy of modeling tools: a 1D-2D basic hydrodynamic model for a combined shallow lake-drainage system, a detailed 2D hydrodynamic model of the shallow lake, and a 2D water quality and eutrophication screening models for the lake system. The basic water quality model for the lake system simulates the main water quality parameters including the oxygen compounds, nutrients compounds, temperature, salinity and the total suspended matter (TSM). The complexity of the physical and ecological properties of the lake system implied the use of different methodologies for models calibration using remote sensing. The combination of remote sensing with mathematical modelling, for the calibration and verification of TSM and chlorophyll-concentrations in the shallow lake system showed reliable and successful results.Hydraulic EngineeringCivil Engineering and Geoscience
Fabrication and electrical studies on epitaxially-grown Te-Se-Cd structures
No full textNote:Epitaxially prepared monocrystalline selenium film structures have been fabricated and their electrical characteristics measured. The fabrication consists of evaporating a film of selenium on a monocrystalline tellurium substrate and then evaporating the counter electrode. Abrasive methods of cutting and polishing tellurium single crystals are found to produce strong surface structural damage which cannot be entirely removed by annealing. Chemically prepared surfaces in the (1010) and (0001) planes, obtained by solvent cutting and polishing with chromic acid mixtures, followed by treatment with dilute hydrochloric acid, were found to be essentially free of contamination and of good crystallinity. Examination by RHEED and SEM has confirmed the monocrystallinity of the selenium film when grown under suitable conditions. Such films have been grown in the (0001) and (1010) orientations, with and without chlorine doping, at different substrate temperatures and with different - surface treatments of the substrate surface. […]Des structures de film monocristallin de sélénium, préparées par épitaxie ont été fabriquées et leurs caractéristiques électriques ont été mesurées. La fabrication consiste à évaporer, sur un substrat cristallin de tellure, un film de sélénium sur lequel l'électrode négative est ensuite évaporée. On a trouvé que les méthodes abrasives, pour tailler et polir les monocristaux de tellure, produisent de forts dommages dans la structure de surface qu'on ne peut enlever par la recuite. On a trouvé que les surfaces traités chimiquement dans 1es plans (1010) et (0001), obtenues par taille dans un dissolvent, et polis dans un mélange d'acides chromiques, suivi d'un traitement dans l'acide chloridrique dilué, sont essentiellement libres de toute contamination et sont bien cristallisées. L'examen de ces surfaces par les méthodes RHEED et SEM a confirmé la monocristallinité du film de sélénium, déposé dans des conditions adéquates. Ce film a été déposé dans les orientations (0001) et (1010), avec dopage de chlore, pues sans dopage de chlore à des températures différentes du substrat, ainsi qu'avec un traitement différent de la surface du substrat.

Smart Mobile Application for Short-Haul Cargo Transportation
No full textSmart service systems have been dealing with various wicked social and cultural problems by providing diverse solutions for society. Cargo transportation is one of the most challenging issues in logistics; in this paper, we explore multiple stakeholders’ information environments surrounding containerized cargo transportation by a design thinking approach. Throughout the analysis, the latent problems are summarized in the following two manners: (1) miscommunication with inefficient information flow among multiple stakeholders; and (2) a lack of resource management coordination among service providers. With these two identified problems, the objective of this work is to develop a prototype information and communication technology-based service application for both trucking companies and customers. This work makes two contributions. First, it methodologically proposes a customer-centered design approach for logistics management by adopting a design thinking approach. Second, it suggests a practical ICT-based solution for the mentioned problems
OnTimeCargo: A SMART TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT IN LOGISTICS MANAGEMENT BY A DESIGN THINKING APPROACH
No full textIn this paper, we synthesize an effective communication prototype that deals with some challenges in the container-trucking sector in Egypt, mainly multiple stakeholders’ communication problems associated with waiting time. Container-trucking is one of the most important activities in logistics management. However, Information and Communication Technology (ICT)-based methods are very limited to identify the latent communication issues in this sector in Egypt. To address these issues, we conducted a design thinking methodology in order to understand multiple stakeholders’ requirements, using qualitative research techniques. As the results, we found that the main problems faced by customers are trucking company selection, miscommunication, and the lack in the information flow, while the main problem faced by trucking companies is the fluctuations in resource utilization. Based on this, we developed a web-based prototype to represent the core features and functions to improve communication in both Business-to- Business (B2B) and Business-to-Customer (B2C). Consequently, this paper has two main contributions. First, it applies design thinking approach to a logistics problem and presents an IT-based solution for it that will reduce processing time. Second it increases customer satisfaction and improves resource utilization in the trucking companies
Humiliation as a Consequence of Human Offenses (A Study of the Interpretation of the Verses of Azabulkhizyi from the Perspective of Tafsir al-Maraghi)
No full textEvery human being has consequences for what they have done. Especially because of their lack of faith and trust in themselves. Allah has warned his servants about the consequences of doing things that Allah has forbidden. One of them is punishment. Although there have been several essays on doom, the author tries to convey how to avoid doom. The word doom means God\u27s punishment that is rewarded to humans who violate religious prohibitions. doom also means all kinds of suffering (misery). There are many assumptions about the cruelty of God about the punishment given but not realizing the mistakes that have been made. This study examines the interpretation of the word doom in Tafsir al-Maraghi by Sheikh Ahmad Mustafa al-Maraghi. This study focuses on two main things: first, the interpretation of Shaykh Ahmad Mustafa al-Maraghi on the verses related to punishment. Second, how efforts to avoid doom in Tafsir al-Maraghi. The research method used is library research with a thematic approach using the Qur\u27an and Tafsir al-Maraghi as the main source. The results and conclusions show that al-Maraghi\u27s interpretation of the verses of azabulkhizyi is interpreted as an act that causes Allah\u27s punishment to befall humans. These actions include disobeying and fighting Allah and His Messenger, showing hypocrisy, spreading false teachings, and doing vain deeds. This finding indicates that azabulkhizyi tells how the consequences of human beings about what they have violated from Allah\u27s provisions.Setiap manusia memiliki konsekuensi atas apa yang telah dilakukannya. Terlebih karena kurangnya iman dan kepercayaan pada diri mereka. Allah telah memperingatkan hambanya tentang konsekuensi melakukan hal yang sudah Allah larang. Salah satunya yaitu azab. Walaupun sudah ditemukan beberapa karangan mengenai azab, penulis berusaha menyampaikan bagaimana upaya menghindari azab. Kata azab bermakna siksa Tuhan yang diganjarkan kepada manusia yang melanggar larangan agama. azab juga diartikan segala macam penderitaan (kesengsaraan). Banyak anggapan tentang kejamnya Allah tentang hukuman yang diberikan tapi tidak menyadari kesalahan yang telah diperbuat. Penelitian ini mengkaji penafsiran lafadz azab dalam Tafsir al-Maraghi karya Syeikh Ahmad Mustafa Al-Maraghi. Penelitian ini memusatkan pada dua hal utama: pertama, penafsiran Syaikh Ahmad Mustafa Al-Maraghi pada terhadap ayat-ayat yang berkaitan dengan azab. Kedua, bagaimana upaya menghindari azab dalam Tafsir al-Maraghi. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah kajian kepustakaan (library research) dengan pendekatan tematik menggunakan Al-Qur’an dan Tafsir Al-Maraghi sebagai sumber utama. Hasil dan kesimpulan menunjukkan bahwa penafsiran al-Maraghi terhadap ayat-ayat azabulkhizyi dimaknai sebagai perbuatan yang menyebabkan azab Allah menimpa manusia. Perbuatan tersebut seperti memushui dan memerangi Allah dan Rasul-Nya, memperlihatkan kemunafikan, menyebarkan ajaran palsu, dan melakukan perbuatan yang sia-sia. Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa azabulkhizyi menceritakan bagaimana konsekuensi manusia tentang apa yang telah mereka langgar dari ketentuan Allah
A Mobile Energy Storage Unit Serving Multiple EV Charging Stations
No full textDue to the rapid increase in electric vehicles (EVs) globally, new technologies have emerged in recent years to meet the excess demand imposed on the power systems by EV charging. Among these technologies, a mobile energy storage system (MESS), which is a transportable storage system that provides various utility services, was used in this study to support several charging stations, in addition to supplying power to the grid during overload and on-peak hours. Thus, this paper proposes a new day-ahead optimal operation of a single MESS unit that serves several charging stations that share the same geographical area. The operational problem is formulated as a mixed-integer non-linear programming (MINLP), where the objective is to minimize the total operating cost of the parking lots (PLs). Two different case studies are simulated to highlight the effectiveness of the proposed system compared to the current approach.American University of Sharja
Comparative study of direct MR arthrography and CT arthrography with arthroscopic correlation in preoperative evaluation of anterior shoulder instability
No full textAbstractPurposeTo compare direct MR arthrography and CT arthrography for the preoperative planning of shoulder anterior instability.Patients and methods47 patients were included in this study. 43 patients with clinical history of anterior GHI or recurrent shoulder pain had no clinical findings of rotator cuff abnormality. They experienced multiple anterior dislocations of the shoulder. No patient showed evidence of multidirectional instability or generalized ligamentous laxity. The remaining 4 patients complained of anterior shoulder instability after anchor repair. All the patients underwent direct CT and MR arthrography. The results of CTA and MRA were compared with results obtained from arthroscopy in each patient to detect the sensitivity and specificity of each modality.ResultsThe sensitivity and specificity of CTA for bankart lesion are 89.4% and 96.4% respectively and of MRA 94.7% and 96.4%, for Perthes lesion the sensitivity and specificity of CTA are 33.3% and 100% respectively and of MRA 66.6% and 100%, for ALPSA the sensitivity and specificity of CTA are 85.7% and 97.5% respectively and of MRA 100% and 97.5%, for GLAD the sensitivity and specificity of CTA are 80% and 97.6% respectively and of MRA 60% and 97.6%, for SLAP lesion the sensitivity and specificity of CTA are 100% and 100% respectively and of MRA 100% and 100%, for absent or degenerated labrum the sensitivity and specificity of CTA are 100% and 100% respectively and of MRA 66.6% and 97.7%, for post operative recurrent Bankart lesion the sensitivity and specificity of CTA are 100% and 100% respectively and of MRA 50% and 100%, for bony glenoid fracture the sensitivity and specificity of CTA are 100% and 100% respectively and of MRA 66.6% and 97.5%.ConclusionCTA and MRA were equivalent in demonstrating labro-ligamentous and cartilaginous lesions associated with shoulder instability. CTA was superior in detecting post operative instability and glenoid rim osseous lesions that are known to be a decisional element in the surgical strategy. Hence, CTA may be considered a method of choice in the preoperative evaluation of shoulder anterior instability
