Comparison of Moderation Interpretation of Religious Mufassir in Social Media (Qs Al-Mumtahanah (60): 8-9, the perspective of Guz Dhofir and Dr. Firanda)
Authors: Minhatul Maula
Published: August 2024

This paper repeats the concept of religious moderation in Qs al-Mumtahanah (60): 8-9 based on two figures who are active on social media and are popular with students or the general public. The two figures are KH Dhofir Zuhry, known as Gus Dhofir and Dr. Firanda Andirja who comes from Indonesia and is one of the regular speakers at the Nabawi Mosque, Medina. The author uses a comparative method in analyzing the concept of religious moderation from the two figures. According to these two figures, we should apply religious moderation because the Prophet himself also gave an example during his lifetime and the Qur'an also reaffirms these concepts. However, there are important points in this religious moderation as recommendations and prohibitions in a regulation. In Qs. Al-Mumtahanah (60): 8-9, Allah only allows being moderate to people who do not disturb us and do not expel us because of differences, both in terms of religion, social, race, language and so on, this also applies to something to the contrary. So we have to be moderate if he also has the attitude and awareness of the importance of moderation. By adopting this moderation attitude, we can go deeper into creating a peaceful and prosperous environment.

The Silence of Necessity
Authors: Bhattacharjee Tuhin ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: August 2024

This essay investigates the concluding myth of Plato’s Republic, as well as the section on anankē and the chōra in the Timaeus, to demonstrate that the maternal figure of Necessity (Anankē), appearing in the myth of Er as the ground of logos, serves as a fecund site for an engagement with the question of sexual difference in Plato’s works. Feminist thinkers have long noted that the image of the originary, powerful mother in ancient myth works as an ambivalent surface for the projection of masculine desires and anxieties, fantasies and transferential projections. In this essay, I draw on both Platonic and feminist scholarship to examine the imaginal architectonics of the scene of Necessity in the myth of Er. By comparing this maternal figuration of anankē with its appearance in the Timaeus alongside the errant, maternal chōra, I argue that the conclusion of the Republic invites a feminist mythmaking that can generatively engage debates around language and sexual difference in the works of Plato.
Health Risks Associated with Microphone Sharing: A Survey of Awareness, Perception and Preventative Actions among Christian Church Choir Members in Taraba State, North-East, Nigeria
Authors: Idi Shadrach
Published: August 2024

The aim of this study was to investigate the awareness and health actions related to the risks of microphone sharing among Christian choir members in Taraba State, Nigeria. Grounded in the Health Belief Model, the study utilised a descriptive survey design, sampling 225 choir members from 10 randomly selected churches across Taraba State, Northeast Nigeria. Data were collected via online questionnaires and analysed using simple descriptive statistics. The findings reveal a low level of awareness about the health risks associated with sharing microphones. The respondents generally demonstrated a negative perception towards these risks, with many expressing disbelief in the potential for disease transmission through shared microphones. Additionally, there was a notable lack of adherence to precautionary measures. The study found that microphones were infrequently cleaned, microphone foams were rarely replaced, and hand hygiene practices—such as hand washing and the use of sanitiser—were not routinely observed. The use of face masks and shields among choir members was also reported as rare. These findings have significant implications for public health practices within religious communities. They underscore the urgent need for increased awareness and education about the potential health risks of microphone sharing. Thus, the study recommends implementing regular cleaning protocols, ensuring the replacement of microphone foams, and promoting personal hygiene measures, including hand sanitisation and the use of face masks or shields during group singing activities. These measures are essential for mitigating health risks and ensuring the well-being of choir members.

Authors: Karnilius Gideon Fwah , Isaac John Ibanga , Falama Rabiu
Published: August 2024

This study explores the impact of smart grid technologies on the modernization of power grids in response to evolving energy demands and the integration of renewable energy sources in Nigeria. It aims to empirically assess advancements in smart grid technologies, focusing on four key objectives: eval_uating the impact of smart meters on energy consumption and peak demand reduction, analyzing the effectiveness of Advanced Distribution Management Systems (ADMS) in enhancing grid reliability and efficiency, assessing the role of demand response programs in balancing supply and demand, and examining the integration and management of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) within smart grids. The research employs a quantitative methodology, collecting and analyzing data from utility companies that have implemented smart grid technologies. Key findings reveal that smart meters significantly reduce energy consumption and peak demand by providing real-time monitoring, while ADMS improves grid reliability and operational efficiency through enhanced fault detection and automated control. Demand response programs effectively balance energy supply and demand, reducing peak loads and energy costs. The integration of DERs increases renewable energy utilization and grid stability but also presents challenges related to variability in power output and management complexity. The study concludes that smart grid technologies play a crucial role in achieving a more resilient and efficient power grid, though addressing challenges related to DER integration and system management is essential for maximizing their benefits.

Enhancing SME Performance Through Entrepreneurial Marketing: Evidence From The Tourism Industry In Pakistan
Authors: Qadir Ghayyur
Published: August 2024

This study explores the impact of Entrepreneurial Marketing Orientation (EMO) on the performance of Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) within the tourism sector in Pakistan. Despite extensive research on EM in developed countries, there is a notable gap in understanding its role in emerging markets, particularly in Pakistan. This research aims to fill this void by empirically investigating the relationship between EM, innovative capabilities, and the overall performance of tourism SMEs. Utilizing a structured questionnaire survey administered to 403 owner/managers of tourism SMEs, the study adopts a positivist philosophy with a quantitative methodology.[1] The findings indicate a significant positive relationship between EM and SME performance, mediated by innovative capabilities. EM practices such as buzz marketing, viral marketing, and guerrilla marketing were found to be particularly effective in enhancing marketing, innovative, and entrepreneurial performance. This research contributes to the theoretical framework of EM by integrating insights from marketing and entrepreneurship studies, emphasizing the necessity for SMEs to adopt innovative and adaptive marketing strategies to thrive in a highly competitive and resource-constrained environment. Practical implications suggest that tourism SMEs in Pakistan can substantially benefit from incorporating EM strategies to navigate market complexities and achieve sustainable growth. Future research should extend this investigation across different industries and geographical contexts to validate and expand upon these findings.
