Analytical Study of Hadiths about Women as Source of Slander
No full textThe word slander is often spoken in society in everyday life, namely defamation. But in this study, the word slander in question is a trial for women and men. It is said in a hadith of the Prophet Muhammad. "I have not left behind a slander for humans which is more dangerous for men than (its slander) for women." Regarding this hadith, many people still understand it textually without looking at the content of the related hadith. Perceptions like this fall are accompanied by attitudes of blaming and defaming women. Therefore, the understanding of women's hadith as slander cannot be understood in general but must be understood by looking at the asbab al-wurud or fiqh al-hadith of the hadith. Because if you understand it just by looking at the hadith, women are indeed a dangerous source of slander for men, where a woman can be said to be slanderous if she cannot protect herself from things that are prohibited in Islam. This hadith is also considered valid. In this research, the author will discuss the analysis of the targeted hadith and what the scholars think about this hadith, which aims to increase knowledge, understanding, and insight for writers and readers in understanding hadiths, especially women, as slanderers. The method used by the author refers to the tahlili (analytical)/qualitative method in the form of library research
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HEALTH CARE ORGANIZATIONAL CHARACTERISTICS AND NURSES' INNOVATIVE BEHAVIOR
No full textAbstract: Nurses need management support, resources, supportive work environment, and autonomy to make decision, gain knowledge about innovation, and engage in role related to innovative behavior. Aim: to examine the relationship between health care organizational characteristics and nurses’ innovative behavior. Methods: A descriptive, correlational research design was conducted at Fever, Chest and Kafr El-Dawar General Hospitals, at EL-Beheira Governorate- Egypt. Subjects: All staff nurses, who are working in the previously mentioned settings and who were available at the time of data collection, with at least one year of experience, were included in the study (N=220). Tools: Organizational Characteristics Scale and Nurses Innovation Behavior scales. Results: There was significant relationships between health care organizational characteristics and nurses’ innovative behavior, where (p-value ≤ 0.05). Moreover, there were highly statistical significant differences between health care organizational characteristics and its dimensions; management support, where (P ≤ 0.01). Also, there was statistically significant difference between staff nurses’ innovative behavior and idea generation. Conclusion: nurses’ innovative behavior is the outcomes of health care organizational characteristics. Recommendations: Enhance nurses’ innovative behavior through participation in the application of health care organization strategies, such as: decisions making; delegation and problem solving…etc
Keywords: organizational characteristics, innovation behavior.

Nature and Mystical Identity: Three Journeys to the Absolute
No full textThis thesis demonstrates three kinds of the Absolute and three different ways of approaching them. Farid Ud-Din Attar, Kate Chopin and Theodore Roethke take different roads to reach their Absolute. Similarities among the three works tackled in this thesis are represented by the role of nature in the spiritual journey to attain a mystical identity, and by having an ultimate goal of the journey called the Absolute . On the other hand, differences are represented by the different definitions of the Absolute that the three authors offer. This thesis also presents different notions like annihilation, unity and illumination that the passengers in the three mystical journeys encounter. The author of this thesis maintains that literature allows us to envision a kind of Absolute, whether as God, Identity or the Divine
Construction of political reality in the caricature entitled Qiblatul Maut and Ittabi'uni by Osamahajjaj: A semiotic study of Roman Jakobson
No full textIn a caricature we can conclude a Message the author wants to convey. The purpose of this study is to reveal what are the constructions of political reality that Osama Hajjaj intends to convey in caricatures " قبلة الموت" and “اتبعوني”. This research uses a type of qualitative research, and the method used is content analysis. A data source consists of a primary data source and a secondary data source. The primary data sources are two caricatures from Osama Hajjaj's Instagram account. While secondary data sources consist of news articles, journals, and books relevant to the study. Data were collected through in-depth observation of caricatures, and then matters relevant to Roman Jakobson's semiotic theory were recorded. Data analysis is carried out in three stages: data reduction, data exposure, and conclusions. The results of the research are (1) the form of political reality construction in the form of political criticism of Joe Biden as well as an attempt to satirize the United States, which is pro with the Israeli government, (2) Osama's caricature entitled " قبلة الموت" and “اتبعوني” meets Roman Jacobson's semiotic analysis content in the form of addresser, addresse, code, contact, context, and message

Predictors of longer-term development of expressive language in two independent longitudinal cohorts of language-delayed preschoolers with Autism Spectrum Disorder
No full textBackground: Studies estimate that 30% of individuals with autism are minimally verbal. Understanding what factors predict longer-term expressive development in children with language delays is critical to inform identification and treatment of those at-risk for persistent language impairments. The present study examined predictors of expressive language development in language-delayed preschoolers followed through later school-age and young adulthood.
Methods: Children using single words or less on the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) at approximately 3 years old were drawn from the Early Diagnosis (EDX) and Pathways in ASD longitudinal cohorts. Age-3 predictors of Age-19 ADOS language level were identified using Classification and Regression Trees (CART) in the EDX sample. Linear mixed models examined the effects of CART-identified predictors on Vineland expressive communication (VExp) trajectories from Age-3 to Age-19. The same linear mixed models were examined in the Pathways sample, identifying predictors of VExp from ages 3 to 10.5 years.
Results: Significantly delayed fine motor skills (T-score < 20) was the strongest CART predictor of Age-19 language. In the linear mixed models, time, Age-3 fine motor skills and initiation of joint attention (IJA) predicted VExp trajectories in the EDX sample, even when controlling for Age-3 visual receptive abilities. In the Pathways sample, time and Age-3 fine motor skills were significant predictors of VExp trajectories; IJA and cognitive skills were not significant predictors.
Conclusions: Marked deficits in fine motor skills may be a salient proxy marker for identifying language-delayed children with ASD who are at risk for persistent language impairments. This finding adds to the literature demonstrating a relation between motor and language development in ASD. Investigating individual skill areas (e.g., fine motor and nonverbal problem-solving skills), rather than broader indices of developmental level (e.g., nonverbal IQ) may provide important cues to understanding longer-term language outcomes that can be targeted in early intervention.Peer reviewe

No full textBackground The fish pancreas has been reported to be composed of two portions: compact and disseminated. However, little has been elucidated in catfish. The present study describes a unique localization of the disseminated pancreas in African catfish. Methods The sections were obtained and used for either routine histological examination following staining with haematoxylin and eosin (H & E), periodic acid-Schiff's, or were subjected to immunohistochemical staining for detection of both insulin-producing beta cells and glucagon-producing alpha cells. Results Our investigation showed that the pancreas of catfish consisted of both compact and disseminated portions. The compact pancreas was embedded in the mesenteric adipose tissue between the spleen, stomach and liver. However, the disseminated one showed unique localization in the tunica adventitia of the middle portion of the oesophagus. The pancreas consisted of two portions, exocrine and endocrine. Furthermore, in both types of pancreas, the female showed a significantly higher ratio for the endocrine islet area/pancreatic tissue area than that of the male and also a significantly higher ratio for both insulin- and glucagon-positive area/islet area in the female pancreas (compact and disseminated) than that of the male. In conclusion The present study provides evidence on a unique localization of the disseminated pancreas in the oesophagus of catfish. Furthermore, we revealed sex-related difference in the endocrine portion in both pancreatic tissues with more development in the female. The study suggests that sex hormones could be contributed to such sexual dimorphism. However, further investigation is required to compare the degree of development during the spawning and resting seasons
Validation of three Arabic health literacy assessment tools in Lebanon
No full textHealth literacy is an important predictor of health status, health behaviours, and other health outcomes. However, research on health literacy in the Arab world is scarce and no health literacy tool has been validated to test the health literacy level of the Lebanese population so far. The aim of this study was to validate Arabic translations of three commonly used health literacy assessment tools, the S-TOFHLA, the REALM-R, and the Brief Health Literacy Screening items. The tools were linguistically and culturally adapted to the Lebanese context, and 250 face-to-face interviews were conducted in an outpatient clinic in Beirut, Lebanon, between April and June 2015. The General Self-Efficacy Scale and socio-demographic questions such as gender, age, origin, education and chronic condition were included to assess predictive validity. Reliability of the instruments was found to be low to high (Cronbach's α =0.94 for the S-TOFHLA, Cronbach's α = 0.46 for the REALM-R). Younger and highly educated participants scored higher on the S-TOFHLA. The Brief Health Literacy Screening items were significantly correlated with age, education, self-efficacy and the S-TOFHLA, reinforcing the convergent and predictive validity of the two tools. Results indicate that the S-TOFHLA and the three screening questions are a valuable tool to measure health literacy in Lebanon and, allowing for minimal adaptations according to each country's healthcare system, in the entire Arabic-speaking area. © The Author 2016.
