Assessment of Physicochemical Parameters of Water in Puliyanthangal Lake of Ranipet, Tamilnadu, India
Authors: Sivachandrabose Kannan
Published: February 2023

The present investigation is centered on the Physicochemical characteristic features in water samples collected from the Puliyanthangal lake of Ranipet region which is suspected to be influenced by the intrusion of tannery effluents and domestic waste by direct and indirect means. Monthly water samples were collected at station 1 and station 2 from the Puliyanthangal lake of Ranipet area for the period of one year from May 2016 to April 2017. The range of physio-chemical parameters such as appearance (turbid/clear), colour (colourless/green), odour (none), total dissolved solids (265-1553), turbidity (0.9 - 13.17 ), electrical conductivity (76-782 Mhc), PH (6.85-7.93), dissolved oxygen (4.73-22.50 ), calcium (46.33-152), magnesium (12.10- 36.33), sodium (211-296), potassium (0.30-24.26), iron (0.02-0.49), manganese (0.01-0.29), free ammonia (0.04-1.14), nitrite (0.01-1.37) nitrate (6-41), sulphate (19.5-234) and phosphate (0.03-3.88) were recorded and discussed. Unit of the chemical parameters is represented as mg/l and physico-chemical parameters were estimated using the standard method of APHA (2005). The data was analyzed using two way ANOVA. However, escalation of physicochemical variables was noticed only in sampling station 1 and this may be due to the entry points to receive the high amount organic load from the discharge of tannery effluents and domestic wastes by direct or indirect means. It is suggested from this study that these biotopes are to be conserved from the intrusion of pollutants so that the biodiversity of the ecosystem would be sustained.

Recently Emerged Genome Wide Computational Enhancer Target Prediction Tools: A Brief Survey
Authors: Kit Lim Leonard Whye
Published: February 2023

Enhancers are non-coding genomic regulatory elements capable of elevating gene transcription in various biological as well as developmental stages in the host organism. Discovered since 1981, the enhancers play major roles in genetic disease onset and development, orchestrating gene regulation patterns even across the same species via the sequence variations. To date, predicting enhancers and their targets remain a daunting task as universal enhancer markers are yet to be discovered. Computational enhancer target prediction involves three major approaches: supervised, unsupervised and semi-supervised machine learning methods which work on enhancer target features such as enhancer-promoter distance, closest promoter, co-conservation and correlation of molecular signals. In this review, we introduced some recently emerged enhancer target prediction tools as well as their modus operandi, in hope that we can provide future directions towards the development of a more robust tool to aid in the advancement of enhancer targeted treatment researches.

These animals have secondary metabolites which are important in biomedical research. In addition, this animal is also known as an algae cropper, so that it is utilized in aquaculture to clean seawater systems. This short article describes the biological properties of it so that it becomes a marine biota that can be utilized in biomedicine and aquaculture.
A New Species of the Genus Pelodiscus (Testudines, Trionychia) from Jiangxi China
Authors: Shi Haitao
Published: February 2023

A new species of softshell turtle (Pelodiscus jiangxiensis sp. nov.) is described based on five specimens from Jiangxi, China. Phylogenetic analysis of mitochondrial sequences indicated that the new species is the sister lineage to a Pelodiscus clade that includes two currently recognized species, namely P. axenaria from Hunan and P. huangshanensis Gong, et al. from Anhui. Morphologically, the new species is most similar to P. axenaria but can be distinguished by its plain, yellowish white plastron, the absence of the single dark gray central figure, and a distinct carapace pattern. The description of this species increases the number of recognized Pelodiscus species to seven, of which six are distributed in China and four are endemic.
Methylation Profile of 18S rDNA Gene in Brain and Muscle of Tambaqui Exposed to Parasiticide Trichlorfon
Authors: Matoso Daniele Aparecida
Published: February 2023

Until recently, there were no reports on the methylation profile of Amazonian fish specimens employing restriction enzymes. The 18S rDNA methylation status of samples of captive tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) exposed to the antiparasitic Trichlorfon was examined in the current study. The method performed makes use of the CCGG site's sensitivity to the presence of methylation in palindrome cytosines for the restriction enzymes HpaII and MspI. The cleavage occurs by the detection or non-detection of the methyl radical in the inner (C5mCGG) or outer (5mCCGG) cytosine, which makes it possible to compare the DNA methylation profile. When compared to the specimens examined as the control group, the results obtained revealed an increase in methylated fragments of the 18S rDNA gene at LC concentrations of 30% and 50%.
Stock Status of Green Tiger Prawn (Penaeus semisulcatus de haan, 1844) in Bombana and Adjacent Waters, Southeast Celebes, Indonesia
Authors: Suman Ali
Published: February 2023

The high market demand for green tiger prawn (Peneus semisulcatus de Haan) has caused intensive fishing for this resources and tended to threaten their sustainability. Studies of stock status are the main foundations for formulating a management for sustainable utilization. The purpose of this study was to determine the stock status of green tiger prawn in the Bombana and adjacent waters, South-east Celebes. The study was conducted from April to November 2021 using a survey method. The study results revealed that the green tiger prawn growth pattern was negative allometric and that the ratio of males and females was imbalanced. Based on total length measurement, length at first capture (Lc) and length at first mature (Lm) were 37.42 cm and 38.72 mm respectively. While growth rate (K) and maximum total length (L∞) valued 1,7 per year and 58.9 mm respectively. The estimate total mortality rate (Z) was 2.57 per year, the fishing mortality rate (F) and natural mortality rate (M) were 1.12 per year and 1.45 per year, respectively. Recruitment pattern occured throughout the year with one peak in June. The exploitation rate (E) was 0.44 per year, therefore the stock status was categorized as fully exploited. In order to ensure the sustainability of the green tiger prawn, precautionary approach such as increasing fishing effort by 10 % of the current situation is strongly needed to be applied
First Breeding Record of the European Robin Erithacus rubecula in Lebanon 2020
Authors: Sawan Michel Fahim
Published: February 2023

European Robin Erithacus rubecula has an extremely large range, and hence does not approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the range size criterion. The population trend appears to be increasing and the size is extremely large. For these reasons the species is evaluated as Least Concern. In Europe, the breeding population is estimated to number 58,700,000-90,500,000 pairs, which equates to 117,000,000-181,000,000 mature individuals. This species is found in forest undergrowth and edge, preferring conifer tracts in some parts of its range and deciduous woodland in others. It uses copses and adjacent open land, farmland woodlots, thickets along watercourses, hedgerows with some tall trees, orchards, gardens and parks and is also found in urban areas in parts of Europe. It requires cool shade, medium-height cover with perches, and patches of bare ground. Breeding occurs from early April to mid-June in the U.K., from the end of April to late July in central Europe and from mid-May in northern Russia and mid-April in southern Russia. On the 28th of April 2020, I was birdwatching in Horsh Ehden Nature Reserve Zgharta-Ehden District, north Lebanon when I encountered a couple of European Robins carrying insects to a nest in a hole in a big rock near the river. Following the birds, they entered the whole and went outside immediately watching me cautiously. I went to see what’s inside that rock and I saw the nest of the European Robin with 3 nestling inside of it. Later after 3 weeks I went again to see the nest I found the juveniles wandering around it. Reporting it to Dr Ghassan Ramadan Jaradi, it was accepted as a first breeding record of this species to Lebanon. Later on, I was able to identify many juvenile individuals near the same location.

Authors: Sawan Michel Fahim
Published: February 2023

The Hooded Wheatear Oenanthe monacha is a small insectivorous passerine (L 15 ½ - 17 cm) that was formerly classed as a member of the thrush family Turdidae, but is now more generally considered to be an Old World flycatcher, Muscicapidae. It has an extremely large range and a population that is suspected to be stable in the absence of evidence for any declines or substantial threats. It’s a resident breeder in unvegetated desert from eastern Egypt through the Arabian peninsula (it used to be in UAE and Oman a scarce breeder in Hajar mountains) to Iran and Pakistan. It occurs at elevations from sea-level to around 1,400 meters. This species is named for the distinctive white plumage on the top of the head and the back of neck, which resembles a hood. It also has a long thinnish beak, a large head and short legs. This bird was seen for the first time in Lebanon on the 17th of April 2021, in Hilan, Zgharta District, North Lebanon on an altitude of 400 meters, during a routine bird conservation patrol shift in the area.

Published: February 2023

Objectives: To assess the impact on patient adherence to intranasal corticosteroid spray by using medication adherence chart and development of potential strategies to reduce non-compliance. Methodology: This prospective cohort study was carried out on 102 outpatients in a tertiary care hospital, Kerala state for one year in the age group of 12 and above, these patients were categorised as case and control where case group were provided with administration chart and counselling. On the review date, we monitored the administration chart and reviewed the patient quality of life and all participants were asked to fill the questionnaire regarding the factors that may have influenced their adherence to treatment. Each factor that may have affected adherence to the prescribed medication is evaluated according to the MARS score and all variables were assessed. Results: Among 102 patients, the reasons for nonadherence were measured, among that forgetfulness, due to cost of spray, fear of persistent use of medication for lifelong were most predominant factor. According to MARS score, there were statistically significant association exist between medication adherence before and after intervention (p <0.001). Conclusion: Patient’s usage and adherence with intranasal corticosteroids are sparse in the treatment of allergic rhinitis. Therefore, based on our results, patients must be given proper education and to help patients overcome these barriers by interventional aids which can promote the proper use of intranasal corticosteroids and prevent remission.

Health Care Provider Knowledge of Human Trafficking
Authors: Carthy Bobbi Mc
Published: February 2023

Human trafficking is a global public health crisis catastrophically threatening the health and well-being of those trafficked. Limited studies measure health care providers’ confidence in their ability to recognize, treat, and refer those being trafficked. This integrative review synthesizes current knowledge on human trafficking and identifies gaps in research on educational interventions aimed at increasing provider knowledge and awareness as well as confidence in treating and referring those being trafficked. A systematic search of five databases identified peer-reviewed published papers between 2015 and 2021. The integrative review followed the framework of Toronto and the systemic search was guided by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Revies and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). Melnyk’s Levels of Evidence framework was used for appraising the quality of evidence. Findings across studies (N = 11) reveal that providers (nurses, doctors, social workers, and hospital staff) have low knowledge and confidence in their knowledge surrounding human trafficking and their role in identification, treatment, and referrals related to an array of barriers. Further findings across studies (N = 13) reveal that providers’ knowledge and confidence knowledge about human trafficking and identification, and referral of those being trafficked increased significantly with an array of educational interventions, but the transfer of this new knowledge to practice is a gap in research, as few studies reported this (n = 2).

Authors: WL Huang
Published: February 2023

Introduction: According to Western medicine, interstitial cystitis (IC) is a chronic pain disorder of the bladder that is often underdiagnosed and mistreated. The difficulties in diagnosis stem from numerous theories regarding pathophysiology and etiology, including the breakdown of the glycosaminoglycan (GAG) layer, altered permeability of the urothelial, uroinflammation, and neural up-regulation. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that patients suffering from chronic interstitial cystitis have an energy imbalance of internal energy and chakras’ energies deficiency as the cause of the problem and the corrections of these energies imbalances through Chinese dietary therapy, auricular acupuncture with apex ear bloodletting and helix urethra point bloodletting and replenishing of the chakras’ energy centers deficiencies using highly diluted medications according to the theory Constitutional Homeopathy of the Five Elements based on Traditional Chinese Medicine can provide an improvement of the patient’s symptoms. Methods: Through two cases reports of a 39 years-old female patient and the second case is a 53-year-old-man both with a history of recurrent urinary tract infections symptoms that were diagnosed after with chronic interstitial cystitis for more than 20 years, without any improvement always using many kinds of antibiotics with no response. They sought for another kind of treatment for their condition using traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) tools. The TCM diagnosis of both patients were deficiency of Yin, Yang, Qi and Blood and Heat retention. It was indicated Chinese dietary counseling, auricular acupuncture with apex and helix urethra point bloodletting, and replenishment of the chakra’s energy meridian using highly diluted medications after being done the chakras energy measurement thought radiesthesia procedure, which reveal that all the chakras were in the lowest level of energy (1 out of 8). Results: Both patients’ recovery completely from their symptoms using TCM’s reasoning treatment in one month. Conclusion: The conclusion of this study is that patients with chronic interstitial cystitis have an energy imbalance and chakra´s energy deficient in energy as the cause of formation of this disease and the treatment correcting these energy imbalances and replenishing the lack of energy in the chakra´s energy centers using highly diluted medications according to the theory Constitutional Homeopathy of the Five Elements Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine is a very important tool to improve or cure the patient’s condition that were suffering from chronic interstitial cystitis , according to these two cases reports.
Serum Soluble Interleukin 2 Receptor Alpha vs. Urinary Parameter and Serum Immunological Markers as a Monitoring Tool of Treatment Response of Lupus Nephritis and their Relation to Lupus Nephritis Class on Renal Biopsy
Authors: RR Gomes
Published: February 2023

Background: Lupus Nephritis (LN) is one of the most common and serious manifestations in SLE patients that causes significant morbidity and mortality. Current conventional biomarkers for LN are sometimes unable to predict treatment response of lupus nephritis. Recently serum soluble interleukin-2 receptor alpha (sIL-2 R alpha) is shown to be a good marker to predict treatment response of LN. Objective: To compare serum sIL-2R alpha with other commonly used markers as a marker of treatment response of LN and their relation to the LN class in renal biopsy. Methods: This prospective observational study was conducted in the Department of Nephrology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), Dhaka, Bangladesh from July 2018 to August 2019. Twenty seven patients who were diagnosed with lupus nephritis after kidney biopsy were included in this study. Serum soluble interleukin-2 receptor alpha, 24 hrs UTP, anti-dsDNA, complements level (C3 & C4) were measured in all patient at baseline, 3-months and 6- months after treatment. Serum soluble interleukin-2 receptor alpha level was measured by ELISA and is expressed as pg/mg. Serum sIL-2R alpha as well as conventional biomarker value were compared before and after treatment and in between treatment response and non-response group. Results: Serum sIL-2R alpha levels were significantly higher in patients of proliferative lupus nephritis (Class III & Class IV) than non-proliferative lupus nephritis (Class V) at baseline (3934.3 ± 1095.2, 3934.3 ± 1095.2 & 1801.98 ± 205.8 pg/L respectively) and levels were decreased significantly 6 months after treatment (p <0.001). Serum sIL-2R alpha levels were also significantly higher in non-remission proliferative group then remission proliferative group (4071.60 ± 769.91 vs 5169.20 ± 394.76) with p value 0.008 at baseline. In contrast no significant difference were observed for 24 hrs UTP levels at baseline between this group which suggest that serum sIL-2R alpha are more sensitive marker than 24 hrs UTP in predicting treatment response of lupus nephritis. Conclusions: Serum sIL-2R alpha might be a valuable serological biomarker to diagnose and to predict and monitor the treatment response of lupus nephritis.
Efectos en el impuesto sobre la renta de la copropiedad empresarial como alternativa para disminuir la carga fiscal de las personas físicas en México
Authors: Haro Ruiz Miguel Angel
Published: February 2023

En México, una persona física que realiza actividades empresariales tiene dos opciones para tributar en un régimen fiscal: el régimen de las actividades empresariales y profesionales o el régimen simplificado de confianza. Además, tiene la posibilidad de optar por constituir una copropiedad empresarial a través de un contrato, atendiendo los requisitos y obligaciones fiscales de cada régimen fiscal. La presente investigación se desarrolló bajo la metodología de estudio de caso, es de tipo jurídica documental exploratoria, con un enfoque mixto. El objetivo fue comparar los efectos fiscales del impuesto sobre la renta (ISR) entre una persona que tributa individualmente y otra en copropiedad empresarial. Derivado del análisis exploratorio de las disposiciones fiscales, los resultados obtenidos permiten afirmar que tributar a través de la copropiedad empresarial es una alternativa que coadyuva a disminuir la carga fiscal del ISR que tienen las personas físicas que realizan actividades empresariales. De acuerdo con su participación en la copropiedad, se dividen los ingresos acumulables y las deducciones autorizadas. Y como consecuencia hay una disminución real de la base gravable que sirve para calcular y determinar el ISR, un efecto positivo en las finanzas del contribuyente al disminuir el ISR en cada copropietario y en la copropiedad en su conjunto, lo que genera mayor flujo y liquidez financiera.

Human Herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) is often associated with asymptomatic infections, but in immunocompetent adults is relatively rare. A 24-years old pregnant woman at 16 weeks of gestation presented a meningoencephalitis caused by HHV-6, confirmed by MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sample. Acyclovir treatment (750 mg IV for 3 times/die) was started but after hours the patient started a spontaneous labor arose which determined a late miscarriage at 16+5 weeks of gestation without evidence of intra-amniotic infection or chorioamnionitis. The patient was discharged after 3 weeks in good health and without neurological sequalae. The exact role of HHV-6 in the development of late miscarriage and its incidence in late abortions is currently unknown.

Estimation and Evaluation of (Uric Acid, Glutathione, Ceroplasmin) and the Trace Elements (Iron, Copper, Zinc) Levels in Type_2 Diabetic Patients in Basrah Governorate-Iraq
Authors: Al-Zaid Wasela I. A. , Sayyah Sahera G.
Published: February 2023

Type 2 diabetes occurs mainly as a result of two interrelated problems Cells in the muscles, fat, and liver become insulin resistant, because the cells do not react in a normal way to insulin, they do not absorb enough sugar, and thus the pancreas becomes unable to secrete an adequate amount of insulin to control blood sugar levels. Since antioxidants and trace elements have a role in the treatment of diabetes by defending beta cells against oxidative stress, so the current research was conducted to find out the levels of non-enzymatic antioxidants (Uric acid, Glutathione, Ceruloplasmin) and some trace elements (Iron, Copper, Zinc) that act as antioxidants in serum of type 2 diabetic patients compared to healthy subjects in Basrah Governorate-Iraq by age. The number of patients in the study was (50) patients (26 males-24 females) and healthy subjects (43), including (11 males-32 females). It was found that there was a significant decrease at the level of significance (p<0.001) in the levels of each of (Glutathione, Ceruloplasmin, Iron and Zinc) in patients and healthy subjects and this decrease increased with age, while there was a significant increase at the level of significance (p<0.001) in the levels of (Uric acid and Copper) at patients and healthy subjects with age.
LEGISLASI HUKUM ISLAM PERSEKTIF TATA HUKUM INDONESIA
Authors: Tahmid Khairuddin
Published: February 2023

Arah politik hukum nasional terhadap legislasi hukum Islam dalam perspektif tata hukum Indonesia, tetap dalam bingkai sistem hukum Indonesia, bukan berdasar agama tertentu, tetapi memberi tempat kepada agama yang ada untuk menjadi sumber hukum atau memberi bahan hukum terhadap produk hukum nasional. Hukum agama sebagai sumber hukum disini diartikan sebagai sumber hukum matriil  dan bukan harus menjadi sumber hukum formal. Proses legislasi hukum Islam menjadi hukum nasional harus melalui dua pendekatan, yaitu pendekatan keilmuan (akademis) dan demokratisasi, dan bukan melalui indoktrinasi. Sekalipun proses legislasi hukum Islam dengan menjunjung tinggi kedua pendekatan di atas, tidak saja berimplikasi terhadap berjalannya produk hukum yang diterima oleh masyarakat Indonesia, juga memiliki legitimasi hukum yang kuat.

Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa hukum Islam di Mesir hokum keluarga yang berlaku saat ini tidak lagi hanya mengikuti hukum klasik para imam Mazhab seperti Hanafi dan Syafi’i, tetapi lebih komprehensif dengan mengadopsi mazhab-mazhab lainnya yang dianggap relevan selain mengambil bentuk hukum baru. Hukum keluarga di Mesir jika dibandingkan dengan hukum keluarga di Indonesia, ada sejumlah materi yang memiliki persamaan dan perbedaan. Usia perkawinan di Mesir adalah 18 tahun bagi laki-laki dan usia 16 tahun bagi perempuan. Sedangkan di Indonesia umur laki-laki dan perempuan yang sudah diperbolehkan menikah adalah 19 tahun.Batas usia minimum perkawinan antara dua Negara tersebut sebenarnya tidak terlalu jauh berbeda. Namun, Indonesia lebih progresif karena di antaranya mempertimbangkan faktor kesehatan dan psikologis.

Implikasi Nusyuz Suami Istri dalam Hukum Islam dan Gender
Authors: Udin Badar
Published: February 2023

Dalam masalah nusyȗz, posisi istri dinilai lemah ketika menghadapi nusyȗz suami, sedangkan ketika istri nusyȗz, suami berhak meninggalkan istri di tempat tidur, bahkan diperbolehkan memukul istri. Kondisi tersebut memunculkan pandangan adanya bias dan ketidakadilan gender dalam masalah nusyȗz, yang menuntut adanya keadilan dari adanya perbedaan implikasi antara nusyȗz suami dan nusyȗz istri. Berdasarkan hal tersebut dapat disimpulkan bahwa tindakan nusyȗz yang dilakukan oleh suami kepada istrinya mengarah kepada tindakan yang merusak muasyarah bil ma’ruf (hubungan yang baik) sebagai dasar terbentuknya keluarga sakinah, mawaddah, wa rahmah.
Bakti Anak Perempuan Kepada Orang Tua Pasca Menikah
Authors: Zaki Muhammad , Maulani Mita
Published: February 2023

Abstrak : Bakti kepada orang tua (birrul walidain) hukumnya wajib bagi seorang anak dan terus berlanjut meskipun anak sudah berumah tangga dan memiliki istri atau suami. Permasalahan biasanya muncul tatkala orang tua butuh perhatian dan perawatan dari anak perempuannya, sedangkan sang anak sudah terikat menjadi istri dari seorang suami yang menuntut harus ditaati. Di masyarakat yang menganut budaya patriarki berlaku prinsip hak suami didahulukan daripada hak istri. Prinsip ini juga mendapatkan legitimasi dari hadis Nabi saw. Prinsip ini terkesan bias gender sehingga perlu kajian kritis. Artikel ini ingin melihat pendapat aktivis gender PSGA tentang bakti anak perempuan kepada orang tuanya pasca menikah, dengan cara wawancara kemudian menganalisa pendapat secara kualitatif. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian dapat dikemukakan bahwa  hampir semua anggota berpendapat sama yaitu bakti seorang anak perempuan pada orang tuanya pasca menikah tetap wajib. Adapun mana yang harus diprioritaskan antara bakti pada orang tua dengan bakti pada suami, mayoritas berpendapat mendahulukan hak suami jika dalam kondisi normal. Namun dalam kondisi tertentu seperti orang tua dalam keadaan sakit maka bakti pada orang tua harus didahulukan. Menurut salah satu anggota PSGA hadis yang menerangkan bahwa hak suami harus didahulukan daripada hak orang tua perlu dipahami secara kritis dan kontekstual agar tidak terkesan bias gender, dan riwayat larangan istri keluar rumah tanpa izin suami walaupun untuk menengok orang tua yang sakit berstatus lemah (dha’if).Kata Kunci : Bakti Anak Perempuan, Bakti Kepada Orang Tua, Bakti Anak Pasca Menikah
Konstruksi Qiyas Al-Gazali Dan Aplikasinya Dalam Istinbaṭ Hukum Islam Kontemporer
Authors: Maimun Maimun
Published: February 2023

: Salah satu metode penggalian dan penetapan hukum dalam pemikiran metodologi hukum Islam menurut al-Gazảli adalah qiyảs. Menurutnya, qiyảs hanyalah sebagai manhaj, bukan dalil hukum, meskipun menurut maẑhabnya al-Syảfi’i eksistensi qiyảs sebagai dalil hukum. Bahkan pada akhirnya menjadi doktrin dan konsensus para pakar hukum (Jumhῡr al-fuqahả’) dan pakar metodologi hukum (Jumhῡr al-uṣῡliyyin) untuk diikuti. Tetapi menariknya, al-Gazảli sebagai pengikut Syảfi’i justru mengkritik pemikiran-pemikiran uṣῡli al-Syảfi’i, di antaranya mengenai eksistensi dan kedudukan qiyảs dalam konstalasi pemikiran metodologi hukum Islam. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian pustaka dengan mengkaji berbagai buku terkait, kemudian dianalisa secara deskriptif kualitatif. Berpikir deduktif-analogis dalam aplikasinya teruatama pada kasus-kasus hukum Islam kontemporer harus bertitik tolak dari unsur-unsur qiyảs (arkản al-qiyảs), yang meliputi pokok (aṣl), cabang (al-far’), causa legis (‘illah al-hukum), dan hukum (al-hukm al-aṣl). Dari keempat arkản al-qiyảs ini masing-masing diikat oleh persyaratan-persyaratan sebagai jastifikasi penalaran qiyảsi. Sehingga persoalan-persoalan baru yang muncul yang tidak terakomodir di dalam naṣ dapat dihubungkan dengan persoalan yang telah ditetapkan oleh naṣ atas dasar adanya kesamaan causa legis (‘illah al-hukm). Untuk itu, menurut al-Gazảli aplikasi qiyảs dipandang tidak sah apabila tidak terpenuhi keempat arkản al-qiyảs.

Akibat putusnya perkawinan yang disebabkan dari khulu’ menimbulkan hukum yang berbeda yakni mengenai kedudukannya sehingga akan berbeda juga mengenai turunan akibat hukum yang lain. Ke-empat ulama madzhab Maliki, Hanafi dan Syafi’i dan Hambali berbeda pendapat apakah akibat khulu. adanya pandangan yang berbeda mengenai akibat hukum khulu’ di kalangan ulama salaf, penulis sangat tertarik meneliti masalah ini. Fokus penelitian adalah bagaimana akibat hukum khulu’ menurut empat madzhab? dan Apa persamaan dan perbedaan akibat hukum khulu’ menurut empat madzhab? Penelitian ini berjenis  kepustakaan (library research) dengan pendekatan komparatif. Adapun hasilnya : pertama, madzhab Maliki,  Hanafi, Syafi’i berpendapat bahwa khulu’ adalah thalaq meskipun di qoul qodim Imam Syafi’i mengatakan fasakh, akan tetapi dalam masalah hal ini dikedepankan ke qoul jadidnya yakni thalaq, sehingga ‘iddah sebagaimana ‘iddah tiga kali quru’ meskipun madzhab Syafi’i dan madzhab Maliki memaknai quru ialah tiga kali suci sedangkan madzhab Hanafi dan madzhab Hambali arti quru’ yakni tiga kali haidh. Madzhab Hambali berpendapat bahwa khulu’ adalah fasakh sehingga cukup iddah satu kali haidh, dikarenakan perbedaan penarikan pemahaman hukum pada dalil dan juga perbedaaan istinbath dalil. Kedua, perbedaan dari pendapat para madzhab ialah terhadap suami yang ingin rujuk dalam masa ‘iddah madzhab Hanafi, Maliki, Syafi’i mengatakan tidak ada rujuk dalam fase masa iddah karena tujuan khulu’ ialah menghilangkan mudhorot dari bahtera rumah tangga tersebut, madzhab Hambali mengatakan jika suami mengambil iwadh tersebut maka tidak ada rujuk dalam masa iddah, akan tetapi jika suami menolak iwadh dari istri maka suami memiliki hak rujuk meskipun itu tetap hukum fasakh. Persamaan madzhab Maliki, madzhab Hanafi, madzhab Syafi’i dan madzhab hambali yaitu khulu’ seperti bentuk jual beli yang saling ridha atau seperti Iqolah (pembatalan jual beli) sehingga tidak membutuhkan hakim di pengadilan.

Lampung Province adopts rural development with the smart village concept as a leading development program based on information and communication technology. In this concept the website has a strategic position in village development. Law Number 6 of 2014 concerning Villages and Government Regulation Number 34 of 2014 mandates village governments to provide the best possible public services and information to the community. Pesawaran District is an area where the village website is developing well. In 2018 there were 58 villages that had the desa.id domain and in 2020 there were 133 of the 148 villages. There are 30 villages that already have an active village website using the domain name desa.id. This is the result of implementing the village website development model carried out. The development model is the various efforts and policies as well as the synergy of various parties in managing the village website. Based on the results of interviews, observation and documentation search, it is known that the village website development model in Pesawaran District involves several parties, namely the Pesawaran Office of Communication and Information, village website operators, villagers and external parties. The Office of Kominfo Pesawaran as an external agent of change becomes the center of the relationship pattern in the model and is involved in the entire series of village website development processes, starting from the socialization process, licensing, management, monitoring and evaluation of village websites. There is an active role of ASN of the Ministry of Communication and Information which uses various media as a means of socialization and consultation. Other external agents have not been heavily involved. Internal agents of change, namely the village head, operators, and residents, greatly determine the sustainability of the website, but it is not optimal. There are still obstacles in developing village websites as part of smart village development.
Student affairs and services leadership in trying times: Student social behaviour project and psycho-social support interventions at a comprehensive university in south africa
Authors: Rheeder Corrie
Published: February 2023

The outbreak of COVID-19 and the lockdown measures that were widely implemented in response to the pandemic forced many of the forms of engagement and activities promoted by student affairs and services staff among students at universities to be curtailed or transformed – at first, so that they entailed no interpersonal contact and later so that they took place in line with health and safety protocols restricting contact. The moment of crisis required decisive, innovative leadership from this staff as they sought to help meet the needs of students who were now deprived of the benefits of the psycho-social, intellectual and physical engagements that had been provided by in-person contact on highly interactive campuses. Accordingly, the student affairs and services staff at North-West University in South Africa collaborated with students, leveraging their creative potential to reach out, create and implement new student support systems and programmes through structured activities that could take place online and in the form of strictly controlled contact sessions. In this context, two new initiatives were established at the university: a student behaviour project which sought to deploy student peers to promote adherence to COVID-19 occupational health and safety protocols among the student population; and a raft of psycho-social support interventions, including webinars, cultural and sporting activities, and residence activities which promoted student welfare including by helping students to manage the realities of the pandemic more effectively. This reflective article, authored by two of the North-West University student affairs and services staff responsible for launching and leading these initiatives, considers the kinds of collaboration among university staff and with students that informed the establishment and implementation of these projects. Focusing particularly on how these projects may have contributed towards increased levels of social capital among the students at the university at a moment of crisis, with a view to extract lessons that may be learned for the proactive development of student-support measures under similar conditions in future.
