    Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd who has some thoughts related to the Qur'an is a contemporary Islamic critical thinker . He said that al Qur’an is a cultural product, this statement made him get under public criticism. However, besides that there are interesting things in the thought of Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd when discussing gender issues including in terms of division of inheritance which according to the author has not been known to the public. The idea that carried Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd is what the author needs to describe conceptually. Research on Gender Deconstruction Perspective Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd was done in order to answer: 1) How is the Qur'an according to Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd? 2) How is the legacy in the Qur'an according to Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd? This paper would like to reconstruct the thoughts of Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd on the Qur'an and the concept of justice in the inheritance. In order to reconstruct the thought of Nasr Hamid Abu Zayd, the author used theoretical hermeneutical of Schleirmacher’s. theory

    Reliability updating of experienced Hydraulic Structures by account of inspections: Case study: Poiree weir Roermond

    No full text
    The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Environment manages approximately five hundred hydraulic structures and is responsible for the remaining life of these experienced structures. In this report, we developed a reliability analysis for the case study poiree weir Roermond. The inspections carried out by IV-Infra on the poiree weir Roermond concludes a rise to high risk e.g. a high probability of occurrence and major consequential loss primarily related to the observed erosion damage at the embedded poiree trestles located upstream river. The remaining life of hydraulic structures is in general the expected lifespan, on the condition that the structure does not fail in the expected lifespan also known as ‘reference period’. The remaining life can be determined as one can predict the deterioration and be able to predict in what condition the poiree weir will be. When the service life time is assumed a random variable, the strength condition can be modeled as a stochastic process, and thus the remaining life too. There is doubt concerning the structural safety because of this deterioration, a reliability assessment of experienced hydraulic structures must be therefore reviewed for use during the remaining life instead of the general reference period and are therefore not to be considered equal.The lognormal distribution with skewness k&lt;1 is an appropriate method to model the strength deterioration behavior. The future condition can’t be exactly determined because of the introduction of the deterioration model uncertainty. Nevertheless, the effect of the inspection data on the reliability level can be illustrated by the likelihood of the strength at the moment of inspection and can be estimated better with a Bayesian afterwards probability. The increase of the actual number of inspections further reduces the uncertainty of the strength deterioration.The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure introduced the "experienced reliability level". The experienced reliability level is the minimum level of structural safety for experienced structures in main waterways. For the reference period and remaining life of 30 years, the following reliability index β = 3.3 is the lower limit for the structural safety for existing structures. The survival probabilities can then be given as reliability index, and compared with the minimum reliability level of experienced structures. To maintain the reliability level at the target level, the remaining life of the poiree weir is the period within which the minimum reliability level of experienced structures should not be less. The remaining life for without inspections and n=9 inspections is calibrated to 7 years, the increase of the number observations n=100 increases the remaining service life to 11 years. One can say that inspection increases the remaining life. This is great of importance for the planning of maintenance.Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and EnvironmentExperienced reliability level of hydraulic structuresPoiree weir RoermondMaster project reportMaster internshi

    Becoming a woman in silence : studies on preparedness for reproductive life of young women in Pakistan

    No full text
    Background: According to the cultural tradition in Pakistan, young women belonging to poor families should marry shortly after menarche. However, existing data show that young people, especially women, are not prepared for sexual life and have poor knowledge about sexuality and reproductive health. Many of the difficulties young women experience are related to beliefs and expectations in the society related to their reproductive roles making them more vulnerable to reproductive ill health.Aim: The study explores the preparedness of young women for married life (communicating with spouse, initiation of sexual activity and child bearing) and ability to negotiate in marriage with spouse on number of children to have and on contraceptive use.Methods: In order to obtain an in-depth understanding of young women’s lives qualitative and quantitative approaches were used. Three qualitative studies using narrative and content analysis were carried out in a slum setting in the outskirts of Islamabad city in Pakistan. Married young women (I), unmarried young women (II) and parents (III) were selected with the help of a community worker. Young married women were interviewed three times at different occasions. Narrative structuring was used to explore how the participants represented their situation. In addition twenty qualitative interviews and three focus group discussions were conducted with young unmarried women (II). Twenty-five parents participated in four gender specific focus group discussions (III). Content analysis was used for analysis of study II and III. For the quantitative study (IV), a subset of 1803 married young women aged 15-24 years was drawn from a nationally representative adolescent and youth survey conducted in Pakistan in 2001-2002 by the Population Council. Regression models were used for analysing the following outcomes: reported agreement with spouse on the number of children to have, current use of contraceptives, intention to use contraceptives in the future and the time elapsed between marriage and the first contraceptive use. Key co-variates of interest were variables that measure the involvement of young women in their marriage as having a say in selection of spouse, mobility outside the household, social role and decision making in their homes.Results: The main theme in all the qualitative studies was ‘socialisation of young women into submissiveness’. For the married young women two themes were identified a) submissive-accepting and b) submissive-victims. The married young women who belonged to the accepting group lived under compromised conditions but described themselves as satisfied with their situation. Women belonging to the victimized group experienced physical and verbal abuse for their inability to cope with the duties of a wife, caretaker of the home and bearer of children. Their situation was compounded by the power dynamics within the household (I). For the unmarried young women the main theme identified was security lies in obedience. The two sub-themes contributing to the main theme were socialisation into submissiveness and transition into adulthood in silence (II). The theme and the sub-themes illustrate the situation of young women in a poor setting in Pakistan. The main theme identified in the study with the parents was ‘Good parents’ strive to raise ‘innocent daughters’. The three sub-themes contributing to the main theme were: a daughter - a responsibility and a burden, social and sexual innocence and parents’ roles in the preparation for marriage. The theme and the sub-themes illustrate how the parents saw themselves as responsible for raising ‘innocent daughters’ and arranging good marriages (III). The quantitative study on the married young women showed that having a say in the selection of spouse at the time of marriage was significantly associated with agreeing with spouse over the number of children to have, intention to use contraceptives and the time between marriage and first contraceptive use. These relationships existed after controlling for education, socioeconomic status, mobility outside of house and decision making in the home (IV).Conclusions: In a culture of silence around sexuality, young women’s socialisation into submissiveness lays the foundation for the lack of control over their future reproductive health (I and II). The parents realised, though, that bringing up daughters for marriage requires not only obedience, but also building confidence and knowledge during their childhood (III). Women who had decision making freedom in their parental home carried this ability with them into marriage in their new home and were better able to negotiate about their fertility (IV). Knowledge about reproductive life could prepare young women better for the future life and give them more control of their fertility. Innovative interventions targeting women need to challenge current societal norms of womanhood to promote the upbringing of confident and knowledgeable young women.List of scientific papersI.

    Analysis of Hamid Mawlana's Thoughts on Islamic Communication Theory

    No full text
    This paper explores Islamic communication theory developed by Hamid Mowlana (1979, 1993, 2007). The analysis includes the context of the emergence of a discourse on Islamic communication in the academic realm and the elaboration and criticism of the substance of Hamid Mowlana’s Islamic communication theory. Using the literature study method, the author found that the emergence of Islamic communication theory was motivated by the meeting of two streams of criticism of Western science, namely the criticism of Islamic intellectuals against the paradigm of Western social science (and therefore, against western modernization); and the tendency towards international communication studies by emphasizing the DE westernization approach, motivated by the cultural turn in the development of the social sciences. Hamid Mowlana formulated Islamic communication theory by proposing the concept of tabligh initially developed from his studies of communication practices and systems in Iran, especially around the period before and after the revolution. Tabligh, besides being a theory, is also an ethic and is based on five fundamental principles: Tauhid, Amar ma’ruf nahi munkar, Ummah, Taqwa, and Amanah. Hamid Mowlana’s Islamic communication theory has its weaknesses, especially in its basic assumptions about Islamic exceptionalism and the singularity of Islamic and Western civilizations

    KRITIK HAMID FAHMY ZARKASYI TENTANG HERMENEUTIKA DALAM ISLAMISASI ILMU (PERSPEKTIF ARKEOLOGI PENGETAHUAN MICHEL FOUCAULT)

    No full text
    Pandangan para pemikir tentang teori Hermeneutika sampai saat ini masih problematis, kritik dan komentar paling keras terhadap Hermeneutika ini muncul dari ranah agama-agama yang harus diakui merupakan ladang paling subur bagi lahirnya “klaim kebenaran”. Di Indonesia, Hamid Fahmy Zarkasyi yang dikenal sebagai tokoh Islamisasi Ilmu adalah yang paling kritis dalam menentang Hermeneutika. Mengenai kritik Hamid, dapat kita lihat dalam karyanya seperti buku, jurnal, seminar dan sikap keberatannya terhadap teori ini. Oleh karna itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana arkeologi pengetahuan Hamid?, mulai dari bagaimana pengetahuannya terbentuk, dikembangkan dan didistribusikan. Selain itu, mengapa ia mengkritik penggunaan Hermeneutika dalam Islamisasi Ilmunya?, penelitian ini berupaya menelusuri wacana, relasi dan makna di balik fakta. Jenis penelitian ini masuk dalam kategori kajian pustaka (literature research), penyajian data riset ini dilakukan secara kualitatif menggunakan pendekatan Arkeologi Pengetahuan dari Michel Foucault. Prosesnya terdiri dari: pengumpulan sumber (heuristik), analisis-kritis, verifikasi dan penulisan. Studi ini merupakan cara untuk mengumpulkan data dari pelbagai karya Hamid Fahmy Zarkasyi dan dilengkapi dengan wawancara. Berdasarkan kajian dan analisis, tesis ini memiliki dua kesimpulan. Pertama, Arkeologi Pengetahuan Hamid Fahmy Zarkasyi dimulai saat ia menemukan kesamaan Framework berfikirnya ketika berguru dengan Syed Muhammad Naquib al-Attas dan Alparslan Acikgenc di Internasional Institute of Islamic Thought and Civilization (ISTAC). Secara Genealogis, al-Attaslah yang nantinya menjadi rantai-wacana pengetahuan Hamid. Kemudian, mereka menjadikan konsep Worldview Islam sebagai cara pandang Islam tentang realitas dan kebenaran. Dari wacana Worldview Islam ini, dilanjutkan dengan Islamisasi Ilmu, yang disemaikan Hamid di Gontor sejak 2006 hingga saat ini. Dari wacana Islamisasi Ilmu, Hamid kemudian berpendapat bahwa Hermeneutika tidak sesuai dengan Worldview Islam. Dengan seperangkat alat ‘kekuasaan’ yang dimiliki, Hamid mendistribusikan pengetahuan-nya melalui pengajaran (seperti di kampus dan seminar) dan pelembagaan (seperti UNIDA dan INSISTS) yang Hamid pimpin. Kedua, argumentasi kritik Hamid tentang Hermeneutika diantaranya yaitu, kekhawatiran karna Hermeneutika berasal dari Barat-Kristen yang dapat membahayakan aqidah Islam, Hermeneutika memposisikan al-Qur’an sebagaimana teks-teks lain yang tidak sakral, Hermeneutika memposisikan Allah sebagai ‘the author’, Hermeneutika tidak mengikuti model prosedural dari Tafsir yang ada, Hermeneutika menyamakan setatus Hermes dengan Muhammad sebagai ‘penerima pesan’, para pendukung Hermeneutik adalah mereka yang sudah dihegomoni Worldview Barat (pluralitas pemahaman). Hermeneutika dianggapnya sebagai ‘westernisasi ilmu’ dan ‘tantangan dalam peradaban Islam’. Maka solusi dari masalah ini, menurut Hamid adalah dengan menjadikan Worldview Islam sebagai cara pandang, dan gagasan Islamisasi Ilmu sebagai konsep metodologisnya

    Abdülhak Hamid Tarhan'in Tayflar Geçidi, Ruhlar, Arzîler, Bâlâdan Bir Ses adlı eserleri ve özellikle bu eserlerdeki şahıs kadrosu bu yazının içeriğini oluşturmaktadır. Yazar, adı geçen eserlerinde idareci, edebiyatçı, peygamber olarak tarihe mal olmuş şahsiyetlerin ruhlarını fantastik bir karşılaştırmakta ve konuşturmaktadır. Konuşmaların konusunu genel olarak insanlığın önünde hep bir sorunsal olarak kalmış kader, ölüm ve aşk ile Müslümanların güçlü olması, birlik ve beraberlik gibi konular oluşturmaktadır. Hamid'in, adı geçen eserlerinde ve genel olarak Dante, Şekspir ve Hugo gibi edebi şahsiyetlerin etkisinde kaldığı bilinmektedir. Bu bağlamda yazar, kendini gerçeğin somut sınırlarıyla kısıtlamak istemediğinden olmalı ki tabiat üstü aleme yönelmiştir.The literary works &quot;Tayflar Ge&ccedil;idi, Ruhlar, Arziler, Baladan Bir Ses &quot; by Abd&uuml;lhak Hamid and the characters have been handled in this study. The author in the literary works aforementioned compares the souls of the historical characters such as administrators, literary men, prophets, and makes them talk in a fantastic way. The main idea in these conversations are destiny, death, love, etc. and the idea of solidarity and the power of the Muslims. It has been observed that in the works mentioned above Hamid has been under the influence of the literary men such as Dante, Shakespeare and Hugo. In this context, the author inclined to the metaphysics as he did not want to confine himself with the concrete borders of the trut
