Published: December 2022

The demand for tomato fruit has increased along with the human population. The increasing income of peoples also affect the demand orientation for high nutrition content and the shortage of resources is the obstacle for future tomato farming. Breeding tomato has been intended to create a new cultivar with high yield and quality. Previously, there were fourteen selected promising lines with high fruit firmness and yield components resulting from plant breeding program. Therefore, further steps need to be evaluated regarding yield potential and the plant quality. This study aimed to identify fourteen promising lines of high yield and high quality and compared to commercial varieties. Fourteen tomato accessions were evaluated by three control varieties. The accessions and controls varieties were assigned in a randomized completely block design (RCBD) with three replications. Data collections were analyzed using Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and continued with Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT) analysis with α = 5%. Path analysis showed that the selection criteria for selecting high yield of tomato lines were fruit length, pulp thickness, fruit weight /plant, and flowers number per bunch. There were five lines of fourteen accessions which had high yield potential and four tomato lines which had worth considering fruit size and fruit firmness. These lines contained high potential characters to be used as breeding materials for improvement of hybrid.

Published: December 2022

Salinization reduces soil health and quality, drastically limiting growth and reducing land degradation and crop yield. This comprehensive research aimed to evaluate the impact of sodium chloride increment on growth factors, amount of oxidative stress biomarker (Malondialdehyde), osmotic response (evaluated by both proline and sugars contents), photosynthesis efficiency (expressed with chlorophyll fluorescence measurement) and activity of Malate dehydrogenases (MDHs) as a regulator under abiotic stress tolerantly in Aloe in Alzahra University, Tehran. Experiments were conducted in two studies at the following concentration of sodium chloride: 0 (control), 100, 200, and 300 (mM) NaCl for 30 days (short-term treatments) and: 0 (control), 54.7, 109.5, and 164.5 (mM) NaCl for 150 days (long-term treatments). Three replications in completely randomized design were applied. The results showed that while the fresh weight of belowground biomass declined at higher salinity level (164.5 mM), no significant differences were reported in the short period of salt treatments. A considerable amount of free proline was accumulated in both short (3.594 µg.g-1 dw) and long ( 2.20 µg.g-1 dw) term studies which raised the role of proline in osmoregulation. Our results showed the decline of MDA amount (0.0003mmol.g-1FW) in 54.7 NaCl (mM) that may be due to less membrane damage in presence of moderate salinity, indicating a variety of dependent differences in biochemical markers activity.

Authors: Han Seungri
Published: December 2022

This study explored whether background music on Social Networking Service (SNS) can influence people’s judgments about others’ personalities. We used the most popular SNS app in Korea and manipulated the background music. Forty-four participants were recruited and randomly assigned one of two conditions: music from either classical or rock genres. After exploring the profile, the participants answered a questionnaire asking them to assess the profile’s owners’ personality. It was found that both male and female participants viewed the profile owner’s personality differently depending on the background music. The implication of personality judgment in an SNS context was discussed.

Authors: Jian Shi
Published: December 2022

In recent years, more and more attention has been paid to the mental health of Chinese college students. The mental health and happiness of college students have become the focus of the government, schools and society. As a special group of society, college students are in the period of personality improvement and development, and their psychological endurance and adjustment ability is relatively weak. Their high self-positioning makes their desire for success very strong. When faced with economic, academic, employment, emotional and other aspects of pressure, often due to improper handling of psychological problems. With the continuous development of psychology, “overall happiness” has gradually become an important comprehensive psychological index to measure people’s mental health. The intervention of mental health education can significantly improve the level of college students’ mental health and subjective well-being. The intervention of mental health education should become an important content and approach of college students’ mental health education.

Published: December 2022

Red meat is of paramount importance for human nutrition, containing necessary amounts of minerals, proteins, vitamins and fatty acids, thus contributing to adequate human nutrition. However, its production is becoming unsustainable, since more natural resources are used to produce 1 kg of animal protein than 1 kg of vegetable protein. The literature review was performed using the PubMed database, using combinations of keywords related to "Neoplasms", "Colorectal cancer", "Sustainability", "Red meat", "Agriculture", "Unsustainable" and "Meat". Eligible criteria included studies in the English language, published between the years 2001 and 2021. In view of this, red and processed meats were classified as carcinogenic or having a carcinogenic potential for humans, thus, new diets such as the vegetarian diet or vegan, has become a healthier option in addition to generating less greenhouse gases, caused largely by ruminants, using less fuel, making use of lower amounts of pesticides and fertilizers, would be generating less waste and occupying less space to generate the same amount of protein, minerals, vitamins and fatty acids needed by the population. Since in the coming decades the production of red meat will be unsustainable due to the population, it is necessary to search for new diets and new sustainable food sources, such as vegetarian and vegan diets.
Critical Assessment of Poetry of Philip Larkin
Authors: Nikhilesh Nikhilesh
Published: December 2022

In the year 1922, Philip Larkin was born in Coventry, which is located in England. In addition to finishing with First Class Honors in English, he received his Bachelor of Arts degree from St. John's College, Oxford, where he also became friends with the author and poet Kingsley Amis. After completing his undergraduate degree, Larkin went on to pursue professional courses in order to become a librarian. He began his career in Shropshire and Leicester, continued it at Queen's College in Belfast, and ended it as the librarian at the University of Hull. He worked in libraries the whole of his life. Not only did Larkin produce volumes of poetry, but he also wrote and published two novels, Jill (1946) and A Girl in Winter (1947), as well as jazz music criticism, essays, and review articles. The latter were compiled into two books: All What Jazz: A Record Diary 1961-1968 (1970; 1985) and Required Writing: Miscellaneous Pieces 1955-1982. Both were published in 1970 and 1985 respectively (1984). Before his death in 1985, he was considered by many to be "England's other Poet Laureate." He was one of the most well-known poets to emerge from England in the decades after World War II. In point of fact, when the post of laureate became available in 1984, numerous poets and critics advocated for Larkin's election to the position; nevertheless, Larkin chose to stay out of the spotlight.

Introducción: los pacientes con enfermedad renal son una población de alta complejidad por sus condiciones de multimorbilidad, riesgo cardiovascular y requerimiento de terapias inmunosupresoras. La vacunación es una de las principales estrategias para mitigar el riesgo de infecciones, no obstante, la respuesta a las vacunas se ve afectada por la pérdida de la calidad de la función inmunológica, efecto que es mayor en la medida en que la enfermedad renal progresa o se requiere el uso de medicamentos inmunosupresores. Por ello, las prácticas de inmunización deben ser incentivadas en los pacientes en estadios más precoces de su enfermedad. Desafortunadamente, existe un amplio desconocimiento por parte de los prestadores de atención respecto de las mejores prácticas de inmunización, adicionalmente, en Colombia no existe cobertura de aseguramiento en el plan de beneficios de salud para muchos de los biológicos requeridos.
Objetivo: generar recomendaciones informadas en evidencia sobre vacunación en pacientes con enfermedad renal y condiciones especiales relacionadas.
Metodología: a partir de una revisión y un análisis crítico de evidencia, el grupo desarrollador formuló recomendaciones sobre indicaciones, contraindicaciones y consideraciones especiales de inmunización en pacientes con enfermedad renal. Se consultó a un colectivo de expertos en infectología y nefrología sobre el acuerdo con las recomendaciones propuestas. Se definió un umbral de acuerdo del 80?%.
Resultados: inicialmente se formularon 135 recomendaciones, de las cuales 124 recomendaciones fueron aprobadas en la consulta virtual, aquellas que no superaron el umbral fueron consensuadas en una sesión virtual. Al final del proceso se obtuvieron 142 recomendaciones.
Conclusiones: la vacunación es una estrategia de prevención altamente recomendable en pacientes con enfermedad renal, con impactos favorables sobre la carga de enfermedad y la supervivencia. Se espera que las recomendaciones propuestas permitan orientar y estandarizar las prácticas de inmunización en estos pacientes y mejorar los desenlaces en salud para esta población.

Postcovid syndrome affects 5-20% of all patients with symptomatic Covid-I9 infection, resulting in temporary or permanent disability for next weeks or months. The commonest syndromes after long Covid-I9, (or chronic fatigue syndrome after Covid, or as synonymum postcovid syndrome) are psychic or psychosomatic disorders known under the name Depression and Anxiety Syndrome. After the unrest and armed conflicts during the Covid era, clients or patients, mainly migrants of war, are also exposed to chronic post trauma syndrome related to previous or recent destruction of infrastructure, temporary homelesness and escape from affected regions/country. Cumulation of those 2 syndromes may have devastating consequences to both, individual health and economic losses due to permanent working and economy disabilities and consumption of health and social funds. After the unrest and armed conflicts during Covid era,clients or patients, mainly migrants of war, are also exposed to chronic post trauma syndrome related to previous or recent destruction of infrastructure, temporary homelesness and escape from affected regions/country.

Comorbidity of Migraine and Depression – Factors for an Efficient & Cross-sectoral Therapy
Authors: Dixon J. , Luliak M.
Published: December 2022

Comorbidity is described as an illness that happens more frequently in connection with a specific condition than would be expected as a coincidental relationship in the general population. Depression, anxiety, stroke, epilepsy, sleep problems, and other pain illnesses are all common comorbidities with migraine. Furthermore, many common disorders occur concurrently (at the same time) with migraine, influencing therapy options (Anzola G.D, 1999). When individuals have comorbid or concurrent conditions, migraine therapy, and especially migraine prevention, can be difficult.

Authors: Pekara J. , Peran D. , Cmorej P.
Published: December 2022

Pepper spray is a self-defense tool used to prevent or stop aggressive behavior by quick and temporary incapacitation of the aggressor. The main aim of this study is to compare the effect of 2 different tools – Flashlight spray (Tool 1) and a gun shaped pepper spray (Tool 2) for paramedics in Prague. We performed a simulated test of the use of the tools with 10 paramedics (5 men, 5 women; the average age was 28 years) – nobody had been educated in using the mentioned self-defense tools. Using pepper spray (Tool 1) is faster and safer than using a pepper gun (Tool 2). There were discovered a lot of negative factors for recommendation for both of these tools: long time period for using against possible perpetrators; impossibility of the using in the space of ambulance. We found that neither tool is appropriate for paramedics.

Authors: Jakusova V. , Hamza K.
Published: December 2022

This study is a collection of findings of published articles from the Department of Medical Biophysics and Department of Public Health at the Jessenius Faculty of Medicine in Martin, Comenius University Bratislava (JFM CU) with the topic on epidemiology of electromagnetic fields. During 14 years, 13 principal publications were created, of which 11 studies deal with radio frequency signals from mobile phones (mainly GSM900 and GSM1800 standard); one study describes the construction of a new exposure system and the other deals with the effects of low frequency electromagnetic fields. The results showed that the electromagnetic fields can affect heart rate variability both in humans and animals; increasing the activity of the parasympathetic or sympathetic nerve systems depending on place of body exposure (head or thorax, respectively); may cause disorders of heart rhythm; loss of concentration; headaches; and/or burning sensations in the ear area. Parameters of exposition were compared with the values issued by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). They had not exceeded the permitted limits. However, compared to data of the Bio Initiative Report, in some cases, our measured values exceeded their limits.

Published: December 2022

This paper deals with the use of meridian exercises of Traditional Chinese medicine in physiotherapy. On a selected sample of 30 probands aged between 19 to 55 years who met the set criteria, the effect of exercises for non-specific pain in the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine was examined. The pilot prospective study compares the intensity of pain in 3 areas of the back before the start of a 4-week cycle exercise at least 3 times a week and after the end of the exercise cycle. After a series of meridian exercises there was a statistically significant pain reduction in the cervical spine (p < 0.05), in the thoracic spine (p < 0.05) and on the level (p < 0.05) in the lumbar spine. The pain frequency during the week decreased by an average (p< 0.05) of a day. The pilot study unequivocally confirmed the positive effect of meridian exercises on reducing the intensity of pain in 3 back areas as well as on reducing the frequency of perceived pain. The addressed issue has a perspective both on the level of physiotherapeutic procedures and their diagnostic use and from the point of view of Traditional Chinese Medicine with the impact of meridian exercises on individual elements, such as organ systems.

Published: December 2022

Introduction Lyme neuroborreliosis (LNB) is a tick-borne infection caused by bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato that accounts for 10-15% of all Lyme borreliosis cases in Europe. LNB can present with a variety of neurological manifestations. We aimed to describe the typical anamnestic, clinical and laboratory features of patients diagnosed with LNB and to describe the differences between paediatric and adult cases. Additionally, we assessed the factors associated with definite LNB. Methods We retrospectively evaluated data of patients with suspected LNB had undergone lumbar puncture and were admitted to the Infectious diseases department of University hospital Bratislava, Slovakia, between September 2019 and May 2022. Patients were divided into three categories according to the diagnostic criteria of European Federation of Neurological Societies: A) cases with definite LNB, B) cases with possible LNB, C) non-LNB controls. Results In total, 139 patients were included in the analysis. 32 individuals were classified as definite LNB, 23 as possible LNB and 84 as non-LNB controls. 55.5% were females and 35.3% were children aged<18 years. 56.3% of patients with definite LNB reported a history of tick bite, and 21.9% a history of erythema migrans (EM). Peripheral facial nerve palsy (PFNP) was the most common clinical symptom in patients with definite LNB (65.6%), followed by headache (50.0%), fever (21.9%) and radicular pain (18.8%). In a univariate and multivariable analyses neither history of tick bite nor history of EM were significantly associated with definite LNB. Factors independently associated with definite LNB in multivariable analyses were (i) age < 18 years (aOR 7.89, 95% CI 2.00-31.03, p < 0,003), (ii) female gender (OR 6.34; 95% CI 1.66-24.17, p < 0.007), and (iii) facial nerve palsy (OR 10.54; 95% CI 2.41-55.19, p < 0.002). Conclusion We found that peripheral facial nerve palsy is the strongest predictor of definite LNB, and that the children<18 years and females in our study were more likely to be diagnosed with LNB. Our study also suggests that anamnestic data on history of tick bite and EM contribute little to the diagnosis of LNB and that the examination of CSF is essential for the diagnosis of LNB.

El estudio de las aves y la vegetación en ciudades amazónicas es importante porque brinda directrices que ayudan a solucionar los problemas de calidad ambiental en una ciudad. Por ello, con el objetivo principal de evaluar si la vegetación está relacionada con la diversidad de aves, se utilizaron los métodos de conteo por puntos, parcelas, imágenes satelitales y revisión bibliográfica, para conocer la diversidad de aves y plantas (árboles, palmeras, arbustos y hierbas) en ambientes urbanos con diferentes niveles de cobertura arbórea en la ciudad de Iquitos, Loreto, Perú. Se registraron 127 especies de aves y 117 especies de plantas. Las aves más abundantes y dominantes fueron Coragyps atratus, Brotogeris versicolurus y Columba livia y en plantas fueron Adonidia merrillii y Cecropia membranacea. La diversidad de aves se relacionó con la riqueza de especies de plantas, plantas nativas, árboles, cobertura arbórea y distancia de la parcela a una matriz de bosque continuo. Los resultados revelan la importancia de tomar acciones para lograr la conversión de la ciudad de Iquitos a una ciudad más verde, donde una mayor diversidad y abundancia de plantas y mayor cobertura arbórea beneficien a más especies de aves, ayudando a mejorar las condiciones ambientales de la ciudad, en beneficio de todos sus habitantes.

El Batará de Cocha (Thamnophilus preacox) es una especie cuya distribución geográfica se encuentra registrada al noreste de Ecuador (este del río Napo) y al sur de la Amazonía colombiana (río Caucayá, río Caquetá y Brazuelo del Caucayá, noreste de Puerto Legizamo, a menos de 3 km de la frontera con Perú) y en la zona fronteriza entre Ecuador y Colombia. Aunque su presencia era esperada en el Perú, no se contaba con registros documentados de la especie. Inesperadamente, los registros aquí reportados no provienen de la cuenca alta del Napo, en la frontera entre Perú y Ecuador, sino de la localidad de Bretaña, ubicada en la zona de amortiguamiento de la Reserva Nacional Pacaya Samiria, aproximadamente a 545 km al sur de los registros de la especie cerca de la frontera entre Perú y Ecuador. En esta nota presentamos evidencias fotográficas de T. praecox en el departamento Loreto, confirmando así el primer registro documentado para esta especie y su presencia en Perú.
A method of high-precision calculating the normal height as the coordinate line`s length at an arbitrary distances from the Earth
Authors: Popadyev V.V. , Rakhmonov S.S.
Published: December 2022

The authors highlight some special issues of the theory of heights. In establishing a global system of normal heights, one of the key matters is the final choice of a system of altitudes to represent elevation marks. In addition to proving the advantages of the mentioned system, it is necessary to eliminate some “white spots” within itself. In 2004, a more accurate way of calculating normal heights as the length of a coordinate line in a spheroidal system was considered. Simultaneously with this, in the papers by foreign researchers, methods of "practically accurate" calculation of the orthometric height were developed, which is associated with increasing knowledge of the earth`s crust upper layers structure. At studying the normal height, it is required to develop methods of its high-precision calculation and explore the properties of various options for setting the corresponding curvilinear integral. An expression is obtained for the normal height as a segment of the coordinate line of the spheroidal system; the one obtained in 2004, which contained inaccuracies, was corrected. The proposed method can be applied at an arbitrary distance from the reference ellipsoid.

The article deals with the matters of creating an integrated navigation system using measurements of the Earth`s gravitational and magnetic fields’ parameters (EGF and EMF). Such a system is to contain a strapdown inertial navigation system (SINS), as well as sensors for the current parameters of the EGF and EMF. Its simulation was carried out. As a result it was found out that, due to the use of information on the parameters of the EGF and EMF, an error of several hundred meters can be obtained. Based on the results of full-scale tests of the created integrated navigation system for the EGF and EMF, a real error of 900 m was obtained with a correction interval of SINS readings of 4 minutes. According to the results of modeling and testing of the mentioned system, the main tasks and ways to solve them are identified. The requirements for measurers of geophysical fields’ parameters and navigation charts are considered, a number of new navigation meters, new methods and tools for preparing navigation charts are proposed. The ways of developing relativistic geodesy and the possibility of using the gravitational-wave astronomy achievements in gravimetry are considered.

Published: December 2022

Tendo em vista que os térmitas são insetos com vasta importância e impacto ecológico,econômico e social, seus estudos são fundamentais. Para a realização destas investigações são necessárias coletas que englobem diversas colônias e espécies, entretanto, os métodos predominantes são ineficazes, porquanto são incapazes de coletar vastas quantidades de espécimes, além de degradar os insetos adquiridos. Nesse viés, o presente projeto propõe a modificação mecânica de um aspirador de pó convencional em um aspirador entomológico para captura de Isoptera, visando propiciar a ampla amostragem de cupins para posteriores estudos. Para tanto, foram efetuados desenhos técnicos, buscando facilitar a elaboração do novo equipamento. Foi utilizada a metodologia Bibliográfica Aplicada, mediante investigação teórica e realização de atividades práticas, tais como, registro de imagens, efetivação dos desenhos com o AutoCAD, realização da plotagem 3D em ABS do novo reservatório, modificação do filtro do antigo aparelho e execução de verificações práticas. Ademais, uma nova tela de aço inox foi adicionada ao projeto. Diante disso, foi proposto um equipamento leve, fácil e mais acessível para sucção vasta de cupins, permitindo a realização de uma coleta mais prática, além de uma melhor separação e conservação dos espécimes, e, contribuindo para a efetivação de melhores estudos sobre os térmitas. Por fim, constatou-se que o aparelho escolhido foi compatível com o projeto, por possuir um bom espaço para armazenamento, uma boa abertura de sucção, clareza e precisão. Além disso, a utilização do programa CAD escolhido foi primordial para a criação dos desenhos de forma prática e com muitos detalhes, e os desenhos projetivos elaborados facilitaram a obtenção do aspirador entomológico.

Authors: Antunes de Souza Isabelle Caroline , Rodrigues da Silva Ernane , Rubens Gonçalves Carneiro José
Published: December 2022

O aço ABNT 1524M é um aço ligado, com baixo teor de carbono, cujo principal elemento de liga é o Mn, por isso este aço pode atingir elevados níveis de dureza e resistência mecânica, devido ao aumento da temperabilidade e endurecimento por solução sólida. Por ser um aço de fácil usinagem, ele é utilizado para fabricação de produtos forjados, onde é necessária a combinação de boa resistência mecânica, elevada soldabilidade e conformabilidade.O estudo dos tratamentos térmicos é de grande importância para o desenvolvimento de novas metodologias de produção industrial, pois permitem que processos já conhecidos tornem-se mais eficientes. Tendo em vista a ampla utilização industrial de aços temperados e revenidos, torna-se importante a avaliação do comportamento da dureza de um aço durante o processo de revenimento com a variação de temperatura. O presente trabalho tem por objetivo avaliar a evolução da dureza do aço ABNT 1524M de acordo com a variação da temperatura de revenimento. Para a realização dos experimentos foram utilizadas barras de aço ABNT 1524M, que foram temperadas utilizando maçarico com resfriamento em água agitada e posteriormente revenidos por 1h em temperturas variando de 200ºC a 700ºC. Foram realizadosensaios de dureza, utilizando a escala Rockwell C. Por fim uma análise estatística dos dados foi realizada com o auxílio do Minitab. Após o tratamento térmico de têmpera a dureza média encontrada foi de 54 ± 1 HRC. Após os revenimentos notou-se que a dureza do aço ABNT 1524M reduziu de acordo com a variação de temperatura devido ao alívio de tensões e às transformação de fases ocasionada pelo tratamento térmico, esta redução pode variar entre 3% (T = 450°C) até 26% (T = 400°C). Entretanto, através das análises do Minitab, verificou-se que não há uma nítida tendência de redução da dureza durante o revenimento, visto que no teste de igualdade de variâncias houve intercessão entre os intervalos analisados. A amostragem utilizada não apresentou outliers e os testes de igualdade de variâncias e médias demonstraram uma confiabilidade de 95%.
Appropriate Disturbances: Team Development in Sports and Business

Published: December 2022

In this article, we will present an anthropological research project that explores possible benefits of comparing a professional handball club and a software company. More specifically, we turn our attention to the phenomenon of “disturbances.” In workplace contexts, disturbances are most often experienced as hindering focus and immersion, thus having a negative impact on job performance. However, by exploring everyday practices in the Danish professional handball club Bjerringbro-Silkeborg Handball, it becomes apparent that (former) head coach Peter Bredsdorff Larsen deliberately uses what he calls “appropriate disturbances” to provoke change and give direction to processes of team development. This causes us to ask one of the fundamental questions of our overall research project: what form would such appropriate disturbances take in a software company? In an effort to explore this question, we describe our experiments with the concept of “reflection time” as an appropriate disturbance to team development in the software company Systematic. We argue that such disturbances can create moments and spaces in which the potential for improvement and development emerges through a temporary destabilization of everyday life in the workplace.
Like Clockwork: Experts and Expertise in Stockholm’s Startup and Innovation Ecosystem
Authors: VandenBroek Angela Kristin
Published: December 2022

SthlmTech, Stockholm’s startup ecosystem, is famous for being an innovation hub that produces more billion-dollar startups per capita than anywhere else except Silicon Valley. This success, people within the community say, is down to the ecosystem of organizations and experts that facilitate the creation and growth of startups via a well-organized curriculum that guides entrepreneurs through the “business” of starting-up. In this article, I examine this understanding of the ecosystem as a neutral, smooth, and ordered apparatus for maximizing the speed and efficiency of innovation. Specifically, I challenge how this popular conception of the ecosystem conceptualizes expertise and experts as mechanistic components ready to be deployed along the path of entrepreneurs training. By analyzing the expertise of ecosystem experts in practice, this paper aims to demonstrate what the ecosystem curriculum foregrounds and what it obscures and how the ideas behind this curriculum shape much more than routine business procedure.
The Abbasid Revolution 747-750 and The Iranian Revolution 1978-1979: A Comparative Perspective
Authors: Hassan Ali Bakr
Published: December 2022

Viewing the cAbbasid Revolution and the Iranian Revolution from a comparative perspective is the focus of this study. The cAbbasid Revolution was the first Islamic revolution, and the Iranian Revolution is the most recent Islamic revolution, both of which occurred in Muslim societies and practically began in the same geographical area. Although more than twelve centuries separate the two revolutions, similarities exist between them. Both produced profound results, and similar lessons may be culled from them. The first revolution toppled the house of the Umayyads and established a new dynasty. The second overbalanced the House of the Pahlavis and evolved Iran from a monarchy into an Islamic republic. The political role of merchants and their cooperation with religious leaders based on mutual self-interests in both revolutions was a significant factor. Conclusions may be drawn as to when or whether there were changes to Islamic values. These changes may have led to a change in Muslims’ experiences, which can be developed, into the form of a revolution or any type of violence. Taking a comparative methodological approach, this study attempts to make a link between the Iranian Revolution and its cAbbasid past.

Published: December 2022

Abdur Rehman Ibn Khaldun was born on May 27, 1332, in Tunis into an Arab family of the Hadramaut which had first migrated to Spain, then to Morocco, and finally settled in Tunisia. He received a thorough education in theology and philosophy at the University (madrasa) of Tunis. At the age of twenty, he entered upon his chequered career, beginning as a secretary to the Sultan of Tunis. He served in various capacities and thus gained a versatile experience that helped him widening his understanding of human nature and political systems. Indeed, he was a prolific writer and scholar by leaving rich treatises on sociology, economics, history, politics, philosophy, and other disciplines. He propounded the theory of Asabiyyah: stemming out from blood lineage, common interests, common geography, and religion as a binding force and an ultimate factor of causing upswing and tumble to a dynasty or a state and thus he provided solid foundations to understand systematically the phenomenon of the rise and fall of dynasties and establishment of states and the factors which bring an ultimate decline to it. An attempt has been made in this article whilst applying this theory of Asabiyyah on the rise and fall of Mughals in South Asia. Founded by Babur in 1526, the Mughal Empire in India is divided into five periods as per the stages of Ibn Khaldun's theory of Asabiyyah and each period is presented analytically particularly in terms of the Asabiyyah. Thus, this article presented the Khaldun’s cycle of the dynasty on the Mughal Empire who fulfilled its five stages on the soil of India.

Indonesia is a multicultural country consisting of various religions and ethnic groups. This diversity is unlikely to last long if the concept of Islamic teaching is filled with an exclusive and radical understandings. Moderate in Indonesia is known as religious moderation or Islam Wasathiyah which is understood as a concept of religious understanding that positions itself in the middle or has a middle stand. Moderate Islam in Indonesia came along with the teachings of Islam in the 13th century. According to historians, the content of Islam entering Indonesia has experienced moderation so that it is different from the Islamic teachings in Mecca and Egypt at that time. Yet, it is this difference that made Islam in Indonesia survived and turned to be the dominant religion in the archipelago. The history of moderate Islam in Indonesia begins with the Sufis in Aceh, followed by Walisongo in Java, public figures and Islamic organizations during the fight of independence, and authorities of the Ministry of Religious Affairs in the present days. This article is a result of a library research conducted in a qualitative approach. The method used for study is descriptive analysis toward recent relevant sources within the last 3 years. The result of study showed that the history of moderate Islam in Indonesia historically moves from essential dimension to authoritative one. The essential dimension covers moderate Islam in terms of Islam Wasathiyah (middle stand) values in various persuasive approaches. Whereas authoritative dimension is referred to the time moderate Islam is taken into the formal forms (government programs) called “Religious Moderation”. This further penetrates the content of education and feature of national curriculum.
نزاع العلماء في حكم ملازمة البيت للمرأة المسلمة سلفًا وخلفًا
Authors: Gazdar Muhammad Amir , Al-Khairabadi Mohammed Abullais
Published: December 2022

This research is a comparative and analytical study that focuses on the ruling for a Muslim woman to be confined to her home. The researchers present the differences of opinion among classical and contemporary scholars on the issue, discuss their opinions along with comparison and analysis of the reasoning proffered and explains the intellectually convincing view on the issue. Furthermore, the researchers examine in depth the degrees of veracity and authenticity of aḥādīth of the Prophet (sws) that the scholars adduce in their contestations. In this regard, the researchers have used two approaches: the first is the comparative one and second is an analytical one. The researchers conclude that the opinion of the scholars who say that it is not permissible in Islam for Muslim women to leave their houses, go out for work and travel for their studies, is inauthentic and incorrect. This view is neither proven from the Qur’anic text, nor the Prophetic traditions. Moreover, it is against the common practice of the female companions of the Prophets (sws) at the time of his prophethood. Rather, it is verified that the Qur’anic injunction of staying at home was specific to the wives of the Prophet (sws) and it was imposed on them due to certain specific reasons. Therefore, it would not be appropriate at all to generalize this special directive and extend it to other ordinary Muslim women. It is not related to them. So, according to the intellectually convincing view of the scholars, it is permissible for Muslim women to go out of their houses for their daily life needs and necessities as the female companions of the Prophet used to do at the time of his prophethood. They just need to comply with the etiquette and provisions of the Qur’an. These include guarding the gaze from taking liberty, wearing decent and modest attire and avoiding exhibition of adornments worn on limbs other than the face, hands and feet on the occasions of male-female interaction, as is mentioned in Sūrah al-Nūr.

Authors: Machouche Salah Bentahar , Bensaid Benaouda
Published: December 2022

This study examines the concept and practice of scholarly writing among Muslim scholars, with a special reference to 'Abdul Rahman Ibn Khaldun (d.1406). The research draws on a textual analysis of Ibn Khaldun’s Muqaddimah and other early Muslim works regarding the craft of writing while addressing the broader, wider context of writing ethicality and its influence on social consciousness. This study discusses the worldview and ethics of writing, concepts, and terminologies, sources and objectives, investigation, and styles of presentation according. This research demonstrates that Ibn Khaldun’s writing methodology and style continue to stand as a prime example for scholarship in the social sciences and that his spiritual beliefs and value system served to further enhance the originality and rigor of his writing and conceptual schemes. Further inductive research conducted across a larger body of Muslim literature will bring about interesting insights on the relationship between spirituality and research writing, as well as the historical contribution of Muslim authors to the advancement of universal knowledge.
Islamic Movements in Indonesia: A Critical Study of Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia and Jaringan Islam Liberal
Authors: Maksum Ali , Abdullah Irwan , Mas'udah Siti , Saud Muhammad
Published: December 2022

For all religions, including Islam, pluralism in society is a challenge. Many thought reconstructions and debates regarding the Islamic paradigm are results of conflicts between right and left Islamic ideologies about the religious paradigm. This research aimed to determine how Jaringan Islam Liberal (JIL) and Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia (HTI) groups embrace tolerance and social networks. The data were analyzed using van Dijk’s critical discourse analysis and a multi-level approach to offer a more critical understanding of the paradigms. This research discovered that JIL has promoted religious tolerance within its theological domain, while HTI has reacted adversely. HTI has not renounced tolerance, but its ideology does not include religious tolerance. HTI derives its legitimacy from Islam; its activists see Islam as a religion and an ideology. JIL also views religion as more than just text and pursues a contextual view of theology. Meanwhile, HTI was restricted to its textual interpretation. Its dissemination in several media outlets further demonstrated its paradigm and the unity of HTI members.
