    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

    Screening of drought tolerant genotypes for arid land cultivation is the best approach to avoid yield losses as breeding and selection are time taking techniques. Current experiment was planned to evaluate late sown wheat cultivars potential for drought tolerance and adaptability in Jeddah region, KSA. Four wheat cultivars (Yocoro, Rojo, Faisalabad-2008, F-10 and L-7096) were tested against drought stress applied as (75% and 50%) of total crop water requirement. A 100% water requirement was also applied as control. Data regarding crop growth stages, growth, grain yield and yield contributors were tested by using MSTAT-C. Drought stress significantly decreased all growth and yield traits except harvest index and the effect of water stress was the most severe where 50% of the total water requirement was applied. Both studied crop growth stages (days to complete tillering and days to complete 50% heading) were also affected to applied water stress and effect was more pronounced for days to complete 50% heading. Studied cultivars responded variably for different growth and yield traits. Cultivar Yoco Rojo took minimum days to complete tillering and heading while L-7096 presented the highest plant height and dry biomass accumulation. Faisalabad-2008 reported maximum values for grain yield and yield contributors except spike length that was maximum in Yocoro Rojo. Based on the field evaluation, it’s concluded that Faisalabad-2008 produced significant results for growth and yield traits among studied cultivars and can be successfully grown in arid land conditions under limited water supplies.Â

    Ankara : İhsan Doğramacı Bilkent Üniversitesi İktisadi, İdari ve Sosyal Bilimler Fakültesi, Tarih Bölümü, 2023.This work is a student project of the Department of History, Faculty of Economics, Administrative and Social Sciences, İhsan Doğramacı Bilkent University.The History of Turkey course (HIST209) is a requirement for all Bilkent undergraduates. It is designed to encourage students to work in groups on projects concerning any topic of their choice that relates to the history of Turkey. It is designed as an interactive course with an emphasis on research and the objective of investigating events, chronologically short historical periods, as well as historic representations. Students from all departments prepare and present final projects for examination by a committee, with 10 projects chosen to receive awards.Includes bibliographical references (pages 20-23).The Russo-Turkish War (1877-1878) was a tipping point for Romani culture in Türkiye after the decline of the Ottoman Empire. The war warranted immigration, and a significant inrush of Romani people occurred in Türkiye, which was one of the reasons why the community faced backlash and stigmatization in the later years. When the Ottoman empire was faring well and was at its zenith, the attitude toward the immigrants, the Romani people, was benign, and the Turks were living in a harmonious society where the Romani culture was celebrated copiously, especially in the palaces of the Sultans. Given the sheer number of immigrants that once settled in Türkiye, it was imminent for society to stir up as the opportunities were near zero to accommodate everyone. This eventually snowballed into a scenario where the Romani community was extensively neglected, targeted, and alienated, leaving them to resort to means that further deteriorated their condition in Türkiye.Türk-Rus Savaşı (1877–1888), Osmanlı İmparatorluğu'nun çöküşünden sonra Türkiye'deki Roman kültürü için bir kırılma noktasıydı. Savaş, göçü teşvik etti ve Türkiye'de önemli bir Roman göç dalgası meydana geldi, bu da toplumun daha sonraki yıllarda tepki ve damgalanmaya maruz kalma nedenlerinden biriydi. Osmanlı İmparatorluğu zirvedeyken, göçmenlere ve Romanlara karşı tutum ılımlıydı ve Türkler Roman kültürünün özellikle Sultanların saraylarında büyük bir coşkuyla kutlandığı uyumlu bir toplumda yaşıyorlardı. Bir zamanlar Türkiye'ye yerleşen göçmenlerin sayısının fazlalığı göz önüne alındığında, herkesi barındıracak fırsatların neredeyse sıfır olduğu bir toplumda sarsıntı yaratması kaçınılmazdı. Bu, sonunda Roman toplumunun geniş çapta ihmal edildiği, hedef alındığı ve yabancılaştırıldığı bir senaryoya dönüştü ve Romanları Türkiye'deki durumlarını daha da kötüleştiren yollara başvurmaya zorladı.by Kaan Gazne

    The cell wall (CW) as a first line of defense against biotic and abiotic stresses is of primary importance in plant biology. The proteins associated with cell walls play a significant role in determining a plant's sustainability to adverse environmental conditions. In this work, the genes encoding cell wall proteins (CWPs) in Arabidopsis were identified and functionally classified using geneMANIA and GENEVESTIGATOR with published microarrays data. This yielded 1605 genes, out of which 58 genes encoded proline-rich proteins (PRPs) and glycine-rich proteins (GRPs). Here, we have focused on the cellular compartmentalization, biological processes, and molecular functioning of proline-rich CWPs along with their expression at different plant developmental stages. The mined genes were categorized into five classes on the basis of the type of PRPs encoded in the cell wall of Arabidopsis thaliana. We review the domain structure and function of each class of protein, many with respect to the developmental stages of the plant. We have then used networks, hierarchical clustering and correlations to analyze co-expression, co-localization, genetic, and physical interactions and shared protein domains of these PRPs. This has given us further insight into these functionally important CWPs and identified a number of potentially new cell-wall related proteins in A. thaliana.publishedVersion© 2017 Ihsan, Ahmad, Shah, Rehman, Aslam, Ahuja, Bones and Ahmad.

    Ahulussunnah wal Jama’ah (ASWAJA) adalah satusa-tunya firqoh ummat Islam yang, berdasarkan sejarah kelahiran dan ideologinya, sampai sekarang masih tetap survive . Dia satusatunya aliran keagamaan (madzhab) dalam Islam yang a politik dalam arti lahir bukan dari induk politik, atau dikendalikan oleh kelompok kepentingan atau untuk tujuan politik. Abu Hasan al-Asy’ari sebagai pendiri madzhab kalam (teologis) aliran ini adalah cucu seorang sahabat pembela Ali bin Abu Tholib, yang dikenal karena dia seorang hafidz dan zahid. Murid-murid Abu Hasan al-Asy’ari, seperti Imm al-Baqillani, Ibnu Mujahid, Imam al-Haramayn dan al-Ghazali, semuanya para ilmuwan yang sepanjang hayatnya diabdikan untuk kepentingan pemberdayaan dan pencerahan masyarakat serta pengabdian kepada Allah. Kemunculan Abu Hamid Muhammad bin Muhammad al-Thusi al-Ghazali yang berhasil memadukan teologi al_Asy’ari dengan fiqih al-Syafi’i dan sufisme, semakin memperjelas misi Ahlussunnah wal Jama’ah sebagai madzhab keagamaan yang mengutamakan keseimbangan, keselarasan dan keharmonisan seluruh aspek keislaman (iman-islam-ihsan). Kaderisasi Ahlussunnah wal Jama’ah melalui institusi Madrasah Nidzamiyah, dibawah kepemimpinan kharismatik al-Ghazali berhasil melahirkan generasi baru ulama-ulama fikih (al-Faqih, Fuqaha’) al-Syafi’iyah-al-Asy’ariyah dengan karakter khusus,yakni sufistik. Fikih Ahlussunnah wal Jama’ah, dengan demikian, adalah fikih sufistik al-Ghazalianisme. Fikih ini diterima dan dianut oleh sebagian besar ummat Islam di belahan dunia bagian timur, termasuk Nusantara. Nusantara yang memiliki banyak kesamaan tradisi dan budaya sangat apresiatif dan kompromis terhadap fikih Ahsulussnnah wal Jama’ah. Fikih ini lebih mengutamakan tuntunan al-Quran, al-Sunnah (tradisi Nabi SAW), keteladanan Khulafa’ al- Rasyidun (Abu Bakr ash-Shiddiq, ‘Umar bin al- Khothob, ‘Utsman bin ‘Affan dan Ali bin Abu Thalib) serta Tabi’in dan Tabi’ al-Tabi’in. Kehadiran para da’i yang tergabung dalam insitusi Dewan Wali Sanga ke Nusantara semakin memperkokoh eksistensi fikih Ahlussunnah wal Jama’ah bagi kehidupan keagamaan (ibadah ritual, mahdhah) dan keberagamaan (ibadah sosial, ghayu mahdhah) masyarakat Jawa dan Nusantara umumnya. Wali Sanga adalah para ‘ulama pembela teologi Imam al-Asy’ari dan fikih Ahlussuunnah wal Jama’ah. Fikih Ahlussuunnah wal Jama’ah berhasil memberikan tuntunan dan pedoman peribadatan (ritual dan sosial) yang bersandar kepada salah satu dari imam Abu Hanifah, Imam Malik, Muhammad Idris al-Syafi’i dan Ahmad bin Hanbal. Kehadirannya menjadi sangat penting karena moderasinya dalam memberikan solusi bagi semua persoalan keagamaan dan keberagamaan ummat Islam yang sudah teruji sepanjang sejarah kemanusiaan. Ahslussunnah wal Jama’ah selalu menjadi modal dasar bagi pembangunan bangsa di seluruh belahan dunia. Ahslussunnah wal Jama’ah selalu mengutamakan al-Quran dan al- Sunnah sebagai seumber kebenaran yang otentik dan universal. Di sisi lain keteladanan para sahabat Nabi menjadi inspirasi dan memberikan peluang sangat besar bagi lahirnya kreativitas dan inovasi (ijtihad). Ijtihad para imam dan ulama Ahslussunnah wal Jama’ah adalah representasikearifan lokal jama’ah Ahslussunnah wal Jama’ah dalam memasyarakatkan Islam rahmatan lil ‘alamin

    OBJECTIVES To investigate the incidence, risk factors and clinical presentation of complications in patients undergoing spinal surgery with and without Dural Tear. METHODOLOGY A one-year prospective case-control study was conducted in the department of orthopaedics and spinal surgery at the Hayatabad Medical Complex (HMC) and Rahman Medical and surgical centre Dagger Buner. The spine surgeon used a discrete surgical approach. The questionnaire was used to collect patient demographic data, surgical information, and data on perioperative and postoperative complications. SPSS version 21.0 statistical software was used for all statistical analyses. RESULTS Dural tears were observed in 3.4% of the patients, among whom 20% experienced a Dural leak. After controlling for potentially confounding variables of age, sex, primary disease, and type of procedure, the surgery-related complications that were more likely to occur in the Dural Tear group than in the non-TD group were surgical site complications OR 2.69 and postoperative neurological defect O 3.28. The proportion of postoperative delirium OR 3.22 was significantly high in the Dural Tear group as perioperative complications CONCLUSION A higher proportion of surgical site infections, postoperative neurological defects and delirium in the Dural Tear group are due to direct complications, such as Dural leakage

    Adaptive hop-by-hop cone vector-based forwarding protocol for underwater wireless sensor networks

    No full text
    In the recent past, a significant increase has been observed in the use of underwater wireless sensor networks for aquatic applications. However, underwater wireless sensor networks face several challenges including large propagation delays, high mobility, limited bandwidth, three-dimensional deployments, expensive manufacturing, and energy constraints. It is crucial for underwater wireless sensor networks to mitigate all these limitations primarily caused by the harsh underwater environment. To address some of the pertinent challenges, adaptive hop-by-hop cone vector-based forwarding routing protocol is proposed in this article which is based on the adaptive hop-by-hop vector-based forwarding. The novelty of adaptive hop-by-hop cone vector-based forwarding includes increasing the transmission reliability in sparse sensor regions by changing the base angle of the cone according to the network structure. The number of duplicate packets and end-to-end delay is also reduced because of the reduced base angle and a smart selection criterion for the potential forwarder node. The proposed routing protocol adaptively tunes the height and opening of the cone based on the network structure to effectively improve the performance of the network. Conclusively, this approach significantly reduces energy tax, end-to-end delay, and packet delivery ratio
