Social implications of the Islamisation of General Zia-ul-Haq for Pakistan
No full textThis study aims to understand the context, patterns, and social implications of Islamisation Zia-ul-Haq in Pakistan. After seizing power, Zia started a manic process of Islamisation. One segment of Pakistani society believes that it has positive impacts, while others believe that it has negative consequences for society. This study investigates this disconcerted debate, and its nature is descriptive and explanatory because it tries to examine the queries of what and why. It is based on the literature review of secondary sources and an analysis of primary data. The thematic analysis model is used for the analysis of data. It was found that the patterns of Zia’s policy regarding state-religion relations were opposite to the vision of the founder Muhammad Ali Jinnah. The global, strategic, and socio-political contexts of Islamisation were the impulse behind that process. The consequences of this process are of concern, as it brought about extremism, sectarianism, and terrorism and negatively affected the human rights regime, polity, and education system. It is suggested that the state should stop patronising extremists’ narratives, adopt peaceful, mystical interpretations, separate matters of religion from state politics, and promote progressive interpretations and arrangements for a better future for the country

Corporate Boards and Ownership Structure as Antecedents of Corporate Governance Disclosure in Saudi Arabian Publicly Listed Corporations
No full textWe investigate whether and to what extent publicly listed corporations voluntarily comply with and disclose recommended good corporate governance (CG) practices, and distinctively examine whether the observed cross-sectional differences in such CG disclosures can be explained by ownership and board mechanisms with specific focus on Saudi Arabia. Our results suggest that corporations with larger boards, a big-four auditor, higher government ownership, a CG committee and higher institutional ownership disclose considerably more than those that are not. By contrast, we find that an increase in block ownership significantly reduces CG disclosure. Our results are generally robust to a number of econometric models that control for different types of disclosure indices, firm-specific characteristics and firm-level fixed-effects. Our results have important implications for policy-makers, practitioners and regulatory authorities, especially those in developing countries across the globe
Konstruksi Pendidikan Islam Moderat Melalui Nalar “A Common Word” Waleed El-Ansary
No full textThis paper seeks to understand the construction of moderate Islamic education in Waleed El-Ansary's "A Common Word" and its implications for world peace. By library research with content analysis, several idea constructs were proposed. Reason "A Common Word" Waleed El-Ansary is equivalent to "al-Kalimah al-Sawa". This term has the connotative meaning that everything is equal, balanced and equal. The construction of moderate Islamic education can be done through the logic of "A Common Word" as stated by religious leaders, including Waleed El-Ansary. "A Common Word" suggests an intersection or similarity in the teachings of the world's religions, especially Islam and Christianity. When Islam promotes the principle of equality, the teachings developed in Islamic education are Islamic teachings that are moderate, tolerant and full of environmentally friendly nuances. Reason "A Common Word" which contains moderate Islamic teachings (rahmatan li al-aminalamin) can be implemented to achieve world peace. The application of the teaching "A Common Word", has implications for the realization of world peace. Reason "A Common Word", which contains a construction of moderate Islamic education, considers that promoting equality (kalimatun sawa), can be achieved through good relations with others, instilling love, removing hatred, and the like. The construction of moderate Islamic education in reason “A Common Word” has significant implications for world peace.
