    Exploring the silence among children of prisoners: a descriptive study

    No full text
    The current incarceration rate is at an historic high, with more than 1 in every 100 adults serving time in Federal and State prisons (Pew Center on the States, 2010). With more than half of all incarcerated adults in the United States being parents, many children are directly affected by parental incarceration. Research on children of incarcerated parents provides limited information resulting in few services responding to their needs (Bernstein, 2005; Eddy and Poehlmann, 2010; Henriques, 1982; Johnston, 1995; McGowan and Blumenthal, 1978; Muhammad, 2008, 2009; Pew Center on the States, 2008; 2010; Phillips, 2010). Although the U.S. government’s criminal justice data collection agency, the Bureau of Justice Statistics, has provided national estimates of children affected by parental incarceration, the actual complex nature of the problem remains unclear. To respond to these lack of data, researchers have investigated children of the incarcerated by talking to their parents, caregivers and family members. Although 1 in every 28 children has an incarcerated parent (Pew Center on the States, 2010), few studies have directly focused on children. This absence has resulted in a limited understanding of their circumstances. Therefore, this qualitative dissertation explored the experiences and perceptions of young urban children of the incarcerated through semi-structured interviews. These data were collected from a sample of 57 child participants, aged 7-18 years, who resided in New Jersey and who were recruited from a local community organization. The findings indicate that children’s experiences are often different than what others describe them to be. Respondents described both negative and positive effects of parental imprisonment. Among the negative consequences was enforced and voluntary silence regarding their parents, the use of drugs and alcohol to cope with parental incarceration, and uncertainty in changing homes and schools. Among the positive experiences were comfort in their foster care placements and with their grandparents, new opportunities in new schools, and improved communication with their incarcerated parent. These findings have implications for programs and policy related to the well-being of children and their families affected by parental incarceration.Ph.

She teaches courses as part of the national Inside-Out Prison Exchange Program, courses in which half of her students are Howard students, and the other half are incarcerated individuals. Most Inside-Out courses take place at prisons, but for logistical reasons that was challenging for Bahiyyah. She turned to a set of technologies to facilitate distance learning, and to turn the course into a learning community

    An Analytical Review of Different Concepts of Riba (Interest) in the Sub-Continent

    No full text
    The traditional concept of Riba (interest) is an excess amount on loan, which creditor receives from debtor on the repayment of loan. There is almost a consensus on the sprit of this concept that it is traditional thought or school; but along with that some other point of views also exist, which present Riba, in somewhat different ways, will be termed as non-traditional approach in this paper. Both of these schools are agreed on the point that, Riba is just restricted to debt, and the increment on it is Riba; but the main difference among these is that: former approach claims that, each and every addition on loan, regardless of purpose and time duration of loan is Riba; but, the later approach demand’s some room for that on different grounds. Actually both of them do not have any sound base. When the concept of unearned income (the income, which is not the result of human labor), is a recognized fact in Islamic economics in different forms, like: ijara (rent), Mudoraba and Mazara’a (Share Cropping); then definitely no logical reason is left to avoid excess income on loan. Both approaches are just unable to give a concrete concept of Riba.Riba, Interest, Rent, Share Cropping

    Conflict of law and the methodology of Tarjīẖ : a study in Islamic legal theory

    No full text
    Islamic law never achieved unity but expressed itself in, at least, four surviving schools. More interestingly, contemporary Muslim communities are still divided among themselves on a number of issues related to their laws. This work describes how problem of legal conflicts have been tackled by Muslim jurists. It is an attempt to examine closely the phenomenon of conflict in Islamic law from the standpoint of usūl-al-fiqh or Islamic legal theory. In fact, much is heard nowadays of the contradiction in the body of Islamic law. Whilst in contrast, little is presented in terms of the methodology of removing this conflict. The present work therefore, attempts to redress this balance. The emphasis of the work will be concerned primarily with tarjīh methodology ; how to give preference to one piece of evidence or argument over the other when they conflict. Nevertheless, considerable concern is given to investigating the background to the conflict of law in the Shari'ah. This study of a neglected area in Islamic legal scholarship will be an important source of reference to students, both practising and theoretical jurists or to anyone who merely wishes to increase his knowledge of legal themes, particularly legal conflict. The very aim of the work is to argue that conflict is a natural and unavoidable consequence of legal study because legal conflict is only conflicting principles and arguments adduced by both the classical and modern jurists to reach what is actually intended by God in the target case. Therefore, conflicts are inevitable in most of the cases in fiqh owing to the variety of principles set out to deal with one piece of legal evidence, let alone with all the pieces of legal evidence in question. Tarjīh is therefore, an important and workable instrument in the re-examination of these conflicts and in arriving at the most accurate principle for establishing the law for as long as this is possible. It is hoped that the discovery of new facts and the increase of knowledge which results from the broadening and deepening of the research will positively contribute to the process of unification of Islamic law
