Nature and death in the poetry of al-Malā'ika, al-Shābbī and Shukrī, and certain English Romantic poets : a comparative study
No full textThe first part of this thesis, divided into two
chapters, deals with the early background of European
Romanticism; the reasons behind its appearance and
problems of definition. There follows a discussion on
the question of the originality of Arabic Romanticism,
with ,a brief review of the roots and main literary groups
of this movement in Arabic poetry.
Part two examines the influence of English poetry
and thought on three Arab Romantic poets: Nāzik Sādiq
al-Malā'ika, Abū al-Qāsim al-Shābbī and
Abd aI-Rahmān Shukrī.
This is discussed parallel with the channels of
this influence.
The main focus of this research is however, to show
the ways in which al-Malā'ika, al-Shābbī and Shukrī perceived and reflected nature and death in their poetry.
Their attitudes towards certain phenomena in nature
such as the countryside, night, the sea, childhood and
moral and social lessons of nature are compared with
certain attitudes of Wordsworth, Coleridge, Keats and
Shelley.
Themes such as life and death, fear of death,
fatalism, immortality and death as a welcome experience
are also the concern of this thesis, with a comparison of
these themes in the poetry of the Arab and English
Romantic poets.
However, owing to the popularity of Keats and
Shelley with the three Arab Romantic poets, this thesis
concentrates on their poetry.
This research has selected only certain phenomena
and themes from nature--and death because of the dominance
of these subjects in the poetry of al-Malā'ika, al-Shābbī and Shukrī. The translations of Arabic poetry in this thesis are
intended to convey the general sense of the source texts,
rather than to give a precise rendering of these texts
into English

The Relationship Between Sleep Quality and Blood Pressure in Students
No full textIntroduction: Sleep is one of the physiological needs that has an impact on the quality and balance of life. The habit of poor sleep quality or a short amount of sleep is also associated with an increase in an individual's blood pressure. If someone's sleep duration is short, the sympathetic nervous system activity will increase, making the person vulnerable to stress, ultimately leading to an increase in blood pressure. Poor sleep quality and quantity not only causes physical discomfort, but also impairs individual memory and cognitive abilities. If this poor quality and quantity of sleep is left unattended for several years, more dangerous complications are likely to occur, such as heart attacks, strokes and psychological problems (such as depression or other mood disorders). The purpose of the study was to determine the relationship between sleep quality and blood pressure in final semester students of the Faculty of Health Sciences, Universitas Sulawesi Barat.
Methods: The study used a cross-sectional approach. The number of samples of 45 respondents was selected by simple random sampling technique
Results: The results of the chi-square test showed that there was no relationship between sleep quality and blood pressure (p>0.1).
Conclusion: there is no significant relationship between sleep quality and blood pressure in students of the Faculty of Health Sciences in the Final Semester of the Universitas Sulawesi Barat
Polygamy in the Perspective of Hadith: Justice and Equality among Wives in A Polygamy Practice
No full textThis article aims to overview some hadith[s] concerning justice and equality among wives in the practice of polygamy. This is literature-based research. In this study, documentation technique was employed in order to collect the data and used takhrij al-Hadith approach. Then, they were analysed by using descriptive analysis method. The result reveals that polygamy might be allowed in certain conditions, especially when a husband could be just and equal in a household among his wives. Practically, this requirement is somewhat challenging. Besides faith and obedience, justice and equality in a family can only be achieved if there is a high optimism, strong confidence, and good paradigm. Although some wives consider it as ‘ain al-sukhty (hatred paradigm), others percieve it as ‘ain al-ridha (pleased paradigm). Unfortunately, to overcome this problematic matter for polygamists in the recent day, justice and equality as the key points in a household should realistically be understood well as what the Prophet Muhammad Peace Be Upon Him (PBUH) had practiced. A positive atmosphere is likely possible to realize in a polygamous household

Preliminary study of screen–printed gold electrode for H2O2 sensor based on electrochemiluminescence of luminol
No full textBackground: Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is mostly used in the water and dairy industries for sterilization and preservation purposes. However, excessive H2O2 residues in milk and tap water pose a health risk. Therefore, accurate measurement of H2O2 residue is essential. Methods: This study explores the potential of a screen–printed gold electrode (SPGE) as a sensor for H2O2 sensor using the electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) method of luminol in the electrolyte of phosphate buffer solution (PBS) under alkaline condition (pH of 9). Findings: The detection of H2O2 was achieved a linear calibration equation of y = 0.0215[H2O2] + 0.2006 within a concentration range of 0.5 to 200 µM (R2 = 0.9998), demonstrating reliable ECL measurements. Conclusion: The analytical performance evaluation of H2O2 sensor exhibited a low limit of detection (LOD) of 3.06 µM, a limit of quantification (LOQ) of 10.20 µM, and good measurement repeatability, with a relative standard deviation (%RSD) of 6.03%, which is below ⅔ of the Horwitz coefficient of variation (9.85%). Unmodified SPGE offers simplicity, ease of use, a stable surface, and good conductivity while maintaining excellent performance. Novelty/Originality of this article: The application of the ECL method on SPGE for H2O2 detection offers excellent analytical performance, making it a promising approach for monitoring H2O2 residues in the water and dairy industries, with a recovery from 83.83 to 106.01%

The Development of Trends and Themes of Polygamy in Islamic Law in the Contemporary World
No full textPolygamy and Islam are significant topics to discuss along with the lack of research literature on polygamy in Islam in recent years. Therefore, this study aims to find out the current situation of research on polygamy in Islam supported by a bibliometric analysis of scientific publications indexed in the Scopus database. This study applied bibliometric analysis using VOSviewer software to visualize the results of previous studies on polygamy in Islam indexed in the Scopus database from 1982-2022. The findings of the bibliometric analysis showed that previous studies on polygamy in Islam based on the Scopus database indicated the tendency of rare attention of academics toward this topic. Therefore, in the future, such a topic has very broad opportunities that may focus on theoretical and empirical studies to improve science development. This article is the first study to discuss polygamy in Islam through a bibliometric analysis approach. Thus, it is expected that this study has implications for future research trends by paying attention to variables that are still rarely investigated by academics

Systems Thinking, Mapping and Change in Food and Agriculture
No full textSocietal actors across scales and geographies increasingly demand visual applications of systems thinking – the process of understanding and changing the reality of a system by considering its whole set of interdependencies – to address complex problems affecting food and agriculture. Yet, despite the wide offer of systems mapping tools, there is still little guidance for managers, policy-makers, civil society and changemakers in food and agriculture on how to choose, combine and use these tools on the basis of a sufficiently deep understanding of socio-ecological systems. Unfortunately, actors seeking to address complex problems with inadequate understandings of systems often have limited influence on the socio-ecological systems they inhabit, and sometimes even generate unintended negative consequences. Hence, we first review, discuss and exemplify seven key features of systems that should be – but rarely have been – incorporated in strategic decisions in the agri-food sector: interdependency, level-multiplicity, dynamism, path dependency, self-organization, non-linearity and complex causality. Second, on the basis of these features, we propose a collective process to systems mapping that grounds on the notion that the configuration of problems (i.e., how multiple issues entangle with each other) and the configuration of actors (i.e., how multiple actors relate to each other and share resources) represent two sides of the same coin. Third, we provide implications for societal actors - including decision-makers, trainers and facilitators - using systems mapping to trigger or accelerate systems change in five purposive ways: targeting multiple goals; generating ripple effects; mitigating unintended consequences; tackling systemic constraints, and collaborating with unconventional partners
