Authors: Muhajir Muhajir , Khusurur Misbah , Suleman Frangky , Karimullah Suud Sarim , Kuklienė Lina , Siripipatthanakul Supaprawat
Published: January 2025

The accuracy of the Qibla direction holds paramount importance in Islamic worship practices, particularly in historical mosques where traditional methods intersect with modern calculations. This study examines the case of the Sunan Geseng Great Mosque in Indonesia, established circa 1400 AD, where traditional supernatural methods of Qibla determination converge with contemporary astronomical calculations. This research investigates the historical method of Qibla direction determination and analyzes community perspectives on potential recalibration, examining the balance between preserving historical authenticity and ensuring religious accuracy. This qualitative research employs historical analysis and astronomical approaches. Data collection involved in-depth interviews with six key informants including religious leaders, mosque administrators, and community members, supplemented by astronomical measurements and historical document analysis. Astronomical calculations revealed a 4° 54' 55.5" northward deviation in the mosque's Qibla direction. Historical analysis indicated that the original direction was determined through a supernatural method by Sunan Geseng's teacher. Interview findings revealed three key responses to potential calibration: religious leaders acknowledged the deviation and adjusted prayer rows accordingly; community leaders supported row adjustment without structural changes; and certain community members opposed changes based on ancestral reverence. This study contributes to understanding the dynamics between traditional methods and modern calculations in determining Qibla direction, while providing insights for managing similar cases where religious accuracy intersects with cultural preservation.

In the evolving landscape of global economics, the significant role of women in the informal economy, particularly housewives, remains underexplored. This study examines the gender dynamics and economic contributions of housewives in the informal economy, focusing on the context of Islamic values and multicultural societies in Poigar Village. Using a qualitative approach, this research delves into how housewives balance domestic responsibilities and economic activities, particularly through cake sales, to enhance family well-being. Key findings highlight the motivations driving housewives to engage in informal economic activities, such as economic necessity, skill utilization, and the pursuit of financial independence. Additionally, these activities are shown to significantly improve family income, enhance financial stability, and foster social recognition. From an Islamic perspective, these efforts align with principles of family cooperation, economic empowerment, and spiritual reward. The study underscores the importance of policies that support women in informal economies, such as access to capital, skill training, and social acknowledgment of their contributions. Future research should explore broader and more diverse samples to generalize findings and examine the long-term impacts of women's economic participation in similar contexts.

Authors: Vinalti Gushe , Jannah Lizaida , Ayyun Salju Qurrata , Kotyazhov Andrey V.
Published: January 2025

The participation of first-time voters in Indonesia's 2024 General Election presents new challenges in the digital era, particularly regarding digital literacy to counter misinformation and hoaxes. This study aims to identify the digital literacy skills of students from the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences (FISIP), University of Bengkulu, in addressing political misinformation. Utilizing a digital ethnographic method with a qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis involving eight first-time voters aged 17–19 years. The findings reveal that social media platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter are the primary sources of political information, despite their vulnerability to hoaxes. Respondents demonstrated basic skills in identifying false information, such as fact-checking through applications and engaging in group discussions. However, they were also exposed to algorithmic echo chambers that amplify information biases. The study concludes that strong digital literacy skills can enhance responsible political participation. Strengthening digital literacy programs is essential to support the integrity of democracy.

Authors: Falah M. Yasa Azmil , Krismono Krismono , Hakim Abdul
Published: January 2025

The phenomenon of mosque fundraising on highways represents an established social practice in Indonesian society, particularly in Bangkalan Regency. This practice creates a unique dynamic between religious legitimacy and social norms that warrants comprehensive examination. This study aims to analyze the practice of mosque fundraising on Bangkalan Regency highways from the perspective of Islamic legal sociology, focusing on the interaction between religious and social norms that shape this practice. Employing a qualitative approach with field research methods, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. The findings indicate that mosque fundraising practices on highways receive support from local religious leaders despite contradicting the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) fatwa. This support creates strong social acceptance, making it an integral part of local tradition that is difficult to modify. However, this practice raises challenges related to road user safety and trustworthy fund management. It can be concluded that the practice of mosque fundraising on Bangkalan Regency highways is formed through complex interactions between religious and social norms that mutually legitimize each other. Better management is needed to avoid negative impacts on society and increase awareness of public safety.

Weighing up the Future. The Mass Balance, the Circular Economy and Chemical Recycling
Authors: White Alvin Orbaek
Published: January 2025

In studying chemical engineering, students are taught the Mass Balance. In principle it is a simple accounting protocol that gives them the ability to track the inputs and outputs for all the matter in a chemical process, chemical plant, factory or facility. The beauty of this practice lies in its simplicity. From the mass alone a large number of assumptions can be made and ratified. Though it is a simple accounting technique it has far reaching application beyond a typical chemical plant. Herein, the Mass Balance is used as a building block to better understand our global system of materials and resource management. The practice of the Mass Balance can be used to understand our planet, based on the fact that chemical change occurs on a daily basis within a closed loop ecosystem. By applying the Mass Balance technique to the Earth one can quickly move to understand the basic need for the Circular Economy in that we realize materials are not limitless. And to achieve the end goal of a circularized economy one must have the ability to reuse materials in continuous loops, to achieve this a protocol of Chemical Recycling is suggested to be most promising
Analyzing Risk Exposure Determinants in European Banking: A Regulatory Perspective
Authors: Arnone Massimo , Costantiello Alberto , Leogrande Angelo
Published: January 2025

The paper deals only with the identification of the determinants of total risk exposure amount within the European banking system, while the importance of TREA within Basel III regulatory regimes is focused. The research provides the integration of an econometric investigation with high-end machine learning techniques for the identification of the influential financial variables of TREA. The most relevant financial determinants of TREA were identified as LCR, CRWEA, LA, and OREA. These also reflect complex interdependencies-for instance, the negative value of TREA and LCR would suggest that there were trade-offs made between risk-taking and liquidity management. Thus, the positive relationship with CRWEA, and even more so with derivatives over assets, underlines intrinsic risks from credit exposures and related to financial instruments' complexity. The report further iterates that there should be mechanisms for appropriate risk-weighting, adequate liquidity buffers, and proper operational controls so that the financial system can become significantly more stable and resilient. This work will put forward actionable recommendations to policy makers, regulators, and financial institutions on mitigating systemic vulnerabilities and further optimizing their strategies for compliance in view of an increasingly volatile financial landscape, leveraging from traditional econometric modeling insights with machine learning.

It is a descriptive definition using the intrinsic qualities of time. The definition is realistic in that it contains no speculation--no theory, no hypothesis.
Symmetric Sampling and the Discrete Laws of Physics (2): Measuring Quanta arriving in a Sensor
Authors: van Heel Marin
Published: January 2025

The classical sampling theorem was refuted in part-1 of this series due to its circular proof: the proof is always true, whether the input signal is under-sampled or not. The symmetric-sampling theory of part-1, is here presented, while minimizing on the mathematics. The classical sampling theorem [Shannon 1949] is based on sampling deterministic signals and produces a finite number of measurements at specific sampling points. At each sampling point, however, the measurement must reach infinite precision. That creates a measurement problem in sampling theory, which is mirrored by an equally fundamental measurement problem in Quantum Mechanics and in all of Physics. Deterministic Classical Physics does not include measurements; it only includes predicting infinitely precise results postulated by “Laws of Physics”. Those postulated results serve only to confirm theoretical predictions. Physics must rather be based on collecting information, that is, on learning from the real physical experiments. Classical Physics is thus constructed with “inverted logic”. Solving this measurement problem calls for a reformulation of the Laws of Physics in discrete form. The mathematical details of such a Discrete Physics are covered in part-3 of this series. Discrete measurements (the act of information collection) on a physical system can never lead to deterministic results since measuring anything to infinite precision requires an infinite amount of energy. Representing a deterministic function in a digital computer to infinite precision, is equally impossible. Symmetric-sampling allows one to assess the physical world by measurements and calculations, without ever deranging into singularities or infinities: not at the small-scale (high-frequency) limit, and not at the large-scale (low-frequency) limit. Symmetric-sampling, combined with a coherent information harvesting strategy, resolves the measurement problem in Physics, including Classical Sampling; Quantum Mechanics; General Relativity, etc. Jumping ahead to the overall conclusions of this series: the 1920s Classical Quantum Mechanics is not only “incomplete”, but it is also superfluous. That conclusion will allow us to leapfrog straight into the realm of a discrete version of Quantum Field Theory (QFT) in future parts of this series.

Continual Forms as Probabilistic Manifestations of Discrete Entities: A Unified Approach to Macroscopic and Quantum Systems
Authors: Bakalov Aleksandar
Published: January 2025

This paper introduces a novel theoretical framework that bridges discrete and continuous descriptions in physics through a unified probabilistic approach. At its core, the framework demonstrates how continuous forms naturally emerge from discrete entities via probability distributions, providing fresh insights into phenomena ranging from classical mechanical systems to quantum mechanics. The work develops a rigorous mathematical formalism that includes a geometric interpretation through Riemannian metrics and extends naturally to relativistic systems.What sets this approach apart is its ability to describe transitions between discrete and continuous regimes using a single mathematical structure, while maintaining compatibility with both classical and quantum mechanical descriptions. The framework introduces a continuity probability function that characterizes systems across all scales, offering new perspectives on wave-particle duality and the emergence of continuous forms in nature. By providing a unified mathematical language for describing such phenomena, this work opens up new possibilities for understanding the relationship between discrete and continuous aspects of physical reality.
Interactive Contextual Recalibration Framework for Semantic Precision in Large Language Models
Authors: Cranex Richard , Gainsborough Morgan , Everingham Aldous , Bromsgrove Connor , Brookstone Sebastian
Published: January 2025

Semantic misalignment and contextual drift often undermine the reliability of generative systems in producing coherent and precise outputs. A novel framework, Interactive Contextual Recalibration, was developed to dynamically refine linguistic outputs through iterative feedback mechanisms embedded within the generation process. Designed to operate seamlessly across a range of tasks, the framework integrates semantic evaluation engines with adaptive inference modules to ensure outputs consistently align with intended objectives. Experiments revealed significant improvements in semantic precision and contextual coherence, particularly in noisy environments and tasks involving domain-specific complexities. The system’s modular design enables robust scalability, facilitating its application to both low-resource languages and extended sequence generation without significant performance degradation. Comparative benchmarks highlighted the framework's superiority in maintaining interpretive accuracy while addressing ambiguities more effectively than conventional approaches. Resource efficiency analyses confirmed minimal computational overhead, affirming its viability for real-world deployments. Notable success in domain-specific applications, such as technical and legal contexts, demonstrates its versatility and relevance to specialized linguistic challenges. Through scalable recalibration and robust performance across diverse conditions, the framework sets a new standard for adaptive systems, redefining the boundaries of contextual accuracy in text generation.
Risky-Choice Framing Effects Result Partly from Mismatched Option Descriptions in Gains and Losses
Authors: DeKay Michael L , Dou Shiyu
Published: January 2025

Textbook psychology holds that people usually prefer a certain option over a risky one when options are framed as gains but prefer the opposite when options are framed as losses. However, this pattern can be amplified, eliminated, or reversed depending on whether option descriptions include only positive information (e.g., 200 people will be saved), only negative information (e.g., 400 people will not be saved), or both. Previous studies suggest that framing effects arise only when option descriptions are mismatched across frames. Using online and student samples (Ns = 906 and 521), we investigated 81 framing-effect variants created from matched and mismatched pairs of 18 option descriptions (nine in each frame). Description valence or gist explained substantial variation in risk preferences (prospect theory does not predict such variation), but a considerable framing effect remained in our balanced design. Risky-choice framing effects appear to be partly—but not completely—the result of mismatched comparisons.

Authors: Shah Debi Kumari , Maharjan Shyam Krishna
Published: January 2025

through the lenses of Shamanism and Bandura's social learning theory. It aims to investigate the socio-cultural factors that perpetuate this practice by employing qualitative method. It also seeks to understand the traditional beliefs and taboos and learned behaviors in sustaining Chhaupadi. For these purposes data were collected from a diverse group of 18 participants, including females aged 15 to 72, In-charge and nurse of the health post, Dhamis (traditional healers), and community leaders selected purposively. A valid semi-structured interview guideline was employed to capture responses from the participants using audio recorder. The collected data were transcribed applying ELAN software and then analyzed thematically with Atlas.ti. The study revealed that Chhaupadi persists due to the interplay of spiritual beliefs, social norms and taboos, and learned behaviors from the society. Additionally, menstruation is often misinterpreted through religious and superstitious beliefs rather than understood as a natural and biological phenomenon. Better health education, communication, awareness campaigns, and other initiatives are vital approaches to alter the mindset and behavior of the community people, particularly women and traditional healers in order to properly manage menstrual health.
Вплив західної правової традиції розуміння прав людини і цінностей демократії в сучасній Ісламській правовій системі
Authors: Лук'янов Дмитро
Published: January 2025

У статті розглянуто вплив світових глобалізаційних процесів, західного розуміння прав людини і цінностей демократії на розвиток ісламської правової системи. Автор наполягає, що процеси глобалізації мають будуватися на повазі до культурної, релігійної та правової багатоманітності, забезпечувати її збереження від примусової універсалізації. Підкреслюється, що історія еволюції ісламського права свідчить, що, воно було і залишається динамічною правовою системою, здатною до модернізації як відповідь на виклик часу. На етапі раннього розвитку в ісламське право було закладено інститути, здатні сприяти втіленню вимог принципу верховенства права. Але в довгій перспективі вказані інституції втратили свою дієвість. Сучасне ісламське право не пропонує ефективного варіанту реалізації принципу верховенства права. У той же час, як свідчить історія ісламського права, практика його реалізації ніколи не припиняла свого розвитку. За час свого існування воно збагатилося, змінилося і оновилося в різний спосіб. Є очевидним, що реформатори мають за мету подолати недоліки в правовому регулюванні, які виявляє практика суспільного життя. Втім, реінтерпретація, яка залишається на сьогодні основним засобом модернізації ісламської правової системи, не є настільки інтенсивною і творчою, щоб зробити її сумісною із принципом верховенства права.

Authors: Лученко Дмитро
Published: January 2025

У статті обґрунтовується теза про те, що електронні петиції потенційно здатні виступати ефективним засобом оскарження незаконних рішень, дій та бездіяльності органів державної влади. У даному випадку інститут електронної петиції є механізмом, який створює комфортні умови для волевиявлення громадян незалежно від місця їх проживання. У статті аналізується стан правового регулювання інституту електронної петиції в Україні та практика його функціонування. Систематизовано недоліки законодавства про електронні петиції, які негативно впливають на ефективність цього інституту. У дослідженні запропоновано низку заходів щодо підвищення ефективності електронних петицій, а саме: проведення просвітницької роботи серед населення (особливо сільської місцевості) щодо призначення та використання інституту електронної петиції; встановлення імперативності петицій, які набрали мінімум голосів на їх підтримку; недопущення втрати голосів за однотипною петицією з ідентичними зверненнями; блокування неактуальних петицій; удосконалення інтерфейсу відповідних електронних ресурсів, на яких публікуються петиції.
Positive State Obligations in the Context of Temporary Loss of Control over a Part of its Territory
Authors: Христова Ганна
Published: January 2025

Drawing from the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights, the study clarifies a state’s positive obligations in contexts of armed conflict and partial territorial loss. It affirms that International Human Rights Law continues to protect conflict-affected populations, based on non-derogable treaty clauses. States are obligated to minimize harm in military operations, account for forcibly disappeared persons, and uphold rights of internally displaced individuals. Even when facing territorial loss, states retain limited jurisdiction as per Article 1 of the Convention, and must use all feasible means to regain control, in line with international law. The scope of these obligations is balanced against available resources and the principle of proportionality.

Стаття присвячена визначенню соціальної сутності та ролі інституту реєстрації виборців в механізмі здійснення народовладдя. Встановлено, що реалізованість принципу народовладдя перебуває у безпосередньому зв’язку зі ступенем ствердження, забезпечення і гарантованості виборчих прав громадян та прямо пропорційна йому. Встановлення персонального складу виборчого корпусу у його кількісному та якісному аспектах шляхом реєстрації виборців виступає необхідною умовою як реалізації суб’єктивного виборчого права громадян, так і безпосереднього волевиявлення народу. даному контексті реєстрація виборців досліджується як інституційний елемент політико-правового механізму легітимації виборів як форми безпосереднього народовладдя.

The purpose of this study is to explore the process of how drug addicts recover through the rehabilitation center experience. To achieve this purpose, data were collected through in-depth interviews from 10 individuals participants were selected who currently going through recovery in rehabilitation center. The collected data were analyzed by qualitative reserch method proposed by Yin (2013). The analysis results revealed that the participants are experiencing different stages of recovery such as deciding admission process, adapting a new life, going through relapse, opening up their mind (emotional openness), acceptance, growing together, and the generate motivation of recovery from the rehabilitation center. Additionally, the physical environment of the community and the therapeutic atmosphere created by the administrator were acted as recovery factors in the rehabilitation center. Based on these findings, the researchers made several suggestions for revitalizing the rehabilitation center to overcome relapse, such as creating a therapeutic atmosphere, put down prejudice about admission into the center, and accepting the feelings and desires of which users go through.

The aim of this work was to study the biological characteristics of three introduced rare onion species of theKazakh Altai flora, to assess the sustainability and prospects of their cultivation in the Altai Botanical Garden.The article presents the results of a long-term study of the seasonal rhythm of development, biometricparameters and seed productivity of Allium ivasczenkoae Kotuch., A. ledebourianum Schult. et Schult., A.schoenoprasum L. in the exposition of natural flora of the Altai Botanical Garden. These onions are combinedinto the subgenus Rhizirideum (Koch) Wendelbo and combined into the section SchoenoprasumDumort. It was found that all three species in the introduction have a stable phenological rhythm, during thegrowing season they annually undergo a full cycle of shoot development and form seeds. According to thephenorhythmotype, they belong to spring-early summer-green with an average flowering period. They growin April, bloom mainly in early June, seeds ripen in July, vegetation ends naturally in late August — earlySeptember. Vegetation lasts from 128.33 ± 2.58 days (A. ledebourianum) to 146.8 ± 7.24 days (A.schoenoprasum). The studied onion species differ in biometric parameters: height, number of flowers in inflorescence,inflorescence diameter. In culture, biometric parameters vary in the studied species mainly at alow level, which indicates the stability of these indicators in culture. High reproductive rates were establishedin culture for all three species, the productivity coefficient varies at the level of 56.75‒69.26 %. At the sametime, a low coefficient of variation in the weight of seeds and flowers in inflorescence was recorded for allthree species, which indicates an insignificant degree of data dispersion in the introduction.

Introduction to the practical use of local raw materials of medicinal plants has an important practical significancefor pharmacy and cosmetic industry. Interest in raw materials of Rubus saxatilis is due to the biologicalactivity of compounds, use in folk medicine, as well as significant amounts of raw materials growing inCentral Kazakhstan. To introduce the raw material into practical application, the task of analyzing theanatomo-morphological structure and identifying diagnostic features of the raw material was set. The resultsshowed that at the macroscopic level as diagnostic features of Rubus saxatilis raw material can be indicatedthe difference in the structure of the upper and lower side of leaves, type of veining, the presence of softprickles, the structure of triple-complex leaves, almost complete absence of pubescence. At the microscopiclevel, the diagnostic features of this species are the shape of transverse sections, the shape of leaf epidermiscells and leaf petiole, the localization of receptacles in the mesophyll, the presence of rare simple unicellulartrichomes and essential oil glands raised above the surface of the epidermis. The results obtained can serve asadditional taxonomic characters in determining the species and authentication of raw materials of Rubussaxatilis.

he article notes the need to discuss not only and not so much the East-West dichotomy as the concepts of orientalism and occidentalism, since the task of finding ways and means of perceiving the East by the West and vice versa should be at the forefront. Oriental studies should develop taking into account the following fundamental aspects. Firstly, the former scientific paradigm within the framework of the traditional East-West, Europe-Asia dichotomy has already ceased to meet the changed social reality. It is necessary to understand the scientific and humanitarian unity of the world, its global and planetary integrity. Secondly, the cul-tural diversity of the planet, which should be based on an understanding of the equivalence and equal im-portance of all cultures and faiths of the world, also determines that Oriental studies should be not only “Eu-ropean, Western”, but also “Asian, Eastern”, and world science. It is important not only that “The West thinks about the East”, but also that “the East thinks about itself”. Thirdly, modern Oriental studies should take into account the paradigm of the post-non-classical worldview, where a person is not opposed to the world, but is inscribed into it and included in it. It is important here not to distance oneself from the object of research in order to obtain objective scientific knowledge, but, on the contrary, the researcher should be immersed, in-volved in the material under study. The formulation and research of this large-scale problem will expand the problematic and subject space of philosophical Oriental studies, form new scientific directions of philosophi-cal comparative studies, based on the rich heritage of philosophical thought of the East, understanding the polycentricity of the world and the polycentricity of philosophy itself.
