This is significant for improving the ease-of-doing-business.

Abstract: Education is the lifeblood that provides knowledge to the community in various fields. The systematic beginning of education has now started from pre-school, primary school, secondary school and to higher level in college or university. All parties regardless of ethnic background, language and religion need the education to be able to live life more harmoniously, respect each other, build success and live based on humanity. At the same time in countries with diverse ethnic, religious and racial communities, the demand for education to understand religious beliefs is often heard. For more countries it is not a big issue to allow the community to provide religious education but not all countries are open and allow educational institutions other than those provided by the government. This is where various problems arise for communities to learn religious teachings, especially for Muslim minorities. Muslim minority communities face various challenges to obtain formal religious education facilities in government-owned schools. Therefore, there are several challenges that have to be overcome to ensure that the Muslim community is able to practice religious teachings while studying in schools owned by the government. This study examines the challenges faced by Muslim minority communities, especially Malays in Perth, Australia.

Abstract: Several determining factors influence the success of the teaching and learning process in the classroom. This study aims to examine the extent to which environmental factors, parents, and peers affect the academic excellence of fifth-grade students in selected religious schools in the state of Terengganu and to analyze the relationship between environmental factors and student academic excellence. This study used a qualitative approach involving document analysis, observation, and interviews with fifth-grade students. The study results found that most parents have a good relationship with the respondents and always motivate them. Still, they provide less help with academic matters such as schoolwork and the preparation of study schedules. Peers also found similar academic excellence and strong socialization influence on respondents. Therefore, parental and peer factors remarkably impact each student in determining academic excellence. In conclusion, the education system greatly depends on the support of environmental factors such as parents and peers to ensure that student academic excellence is at its best.

[Breastfeeding wages between jurisprudence and Algerian Family Law: A comparative jurisprudence study in the light of Sharia objectives] ‘Ujrah al-Raḍa’ah bayn al-Fiqh wa Qanun al-‘Usrah al-Jaza’iri “Dirasah Fiqhiyyah Muqaranah fi Ḍaw’ Maqasid al-Shariah

Published: October 2023

Allah the Wise Legislator preserved the human right to life since conceived by the mother, forbidding him from any harm and ensuring him his right to breastfeeding from the moment he was born alive based on sharia provisions. That is, it is obligatory to protect both self and mind of babies through feeding them appropriately; and breast milk is the only appropriate one in purpose. In other words, if there is no appropriate milk for babies, their self and mind may get destroyed by hunger and its subsequent physical and psychological diseases which may lead to death. Following the Islamic legal maxim that reads ''should an obligation not be fulfilled except by a matter, that matter becomes obligatory”, it is the duty of the father to pay the wages for his breastfeeding, to save their babies' lives if it is not possible to breastfeed the baby or his mother refuses to do so. Both classical and contemporary jurisprudence scholars paid much attention to the provision of breastfeeding wages. As a result, family laws in Islamic nations as for example Algerian Family Law, do not neglect this issue. Thus, the study addressed the provision of refusing breastfeeding by wives during marriage or after getting divorced. Accordingly, the study aimed to show the provision of breastfeeding wages in all four schools of law and the Algerian Family Law through showing the right of wives to be paid against breastfeeding during marriage, their right to refuse breastfeeding, and the right of divorced women to be paid against breastfeeding when they refuse to do that for free. This study employed a comparative and inductive methodology in gathering materials from primary resources. Data collected were then analysed in comparison to Algerian Family Law. Finally, the study introduced a number of conclusions; most notably: despite their different opinions concerning the provision of breastfeeding wages, jurists agreed upon the objective of protecting self by obligating mothers to breastfeed their babies either due to the lack of other alternatives or the latter's insistence on breastfeeding from the mother only; has priority over merely financial objectives. The study also contributed in showing that the provision of breastfeeding wages is in line with the purposes of Sharia.
[The Liberal Approach to Islam and Its Contractions with The Sunni] Pendekatan Liberal terhadap Islam dan Percanggahannya dengan Manhaj Ahli Sunah Waljamaah
Authors: Shafie Ahmad Bazli , Wahab Muhammad Rashidi
Published: October 2023

Modernism has a great influence on contemporary human civilization. Modernization not only brings about changes in advancement of science and technology, but also challenges the credibility of religious institutions and authorities through ideologies based on secular philosophy. In the Muslim context, the “renewal” or “reform” movement, known as Liberal Islam, has emerged to give a new interpretation of Islam, deconstructing the manhaj of Ahli Sunah Waljamaah and reconstructing a new methodology in accordance with liberalism framework. Through the method of document content analysis, this paper aims at analysing the thoughts of Liberal Islam, in particular; its critical study of the history of Muslim intellectualism and its reinterpretation of the Qur’an based on hermeneutics. The results of the study show that the Liberal Islam approach is completely in conflict with the manhaj of Ahli Sunah Waljamaah which is founded on the basis of wasatiyyah, just (‘adl) and adab. The Sunnis approache has been able to put a balance between the literal-exclusive and liberal-inclusive approaches in the interpretation of Islam throughout the history of Muslim intellectualism. In conclusion, the Liberal Islam thoughts must be rejected as declared in the decision of the Malaysia Fatwa Council.

Modenisme telah memberi pengaruh yang besar ke atas tamadun manusia zaman kini. Modernisasi bukan hanya membawa perubahan dalam bentuk kemajuan sains dan teknologi, tetapi turut mencabar kewibawaan institusi dan autoriti agama melalui pelbagai aliran berasaskan falsafah sekular. Dalam konteks umat Islam, gerakan “pembaharuan” atau “refomasi” yang dikenali sebagai Islam Liberal muncul memberi tafsiran baharu terhadap agama Islam, iaitu dengan merombak manhaj Ahli Sunah Waljamaah dan membina metodologi baharu selari dengan kerangka liberalisme. Melalui pendekatan analisis kandungan dokumen, makalah ini menilai pemikiran Islam Liberal, khususnya penelitian kritis terhadap sejarah intelektualisme umat Islam dan pentafsiran kembali al-Quran menggunakan kaedah hermeneutik. Hasil kajian mendapati bahawa pendekatan Islam Liberal bercanggah sama sekali dengan manhaj Ahli Sunah Waljamaah yang sabit serta bersifat wasatiyyah iaitu adil-beradab. Ahli Sunah Waljamaah berupaya mengimbangi antara literal-ekslusif dan liberal-inklusif ketika berdepan dengan pelbagai aliran pemikiran menyeleweng sepanjang sejarah umat Islam. Disebabkan itu, pemikiran Islam Liberal perlu ditolak oleh umat Islam di Malaysia selari dengan keputusan fatwa.

Published: October 2023

Mashaf Uthmani mempunyai beberapa aliran dalam pemilihan penandaan titik pada huruf Hija’iyyah. Perbezaan aliran ini secara tidak langsung menimbulkan kekeliruan dalam kalangan masyarakat yang kurang mengetahui berkenaan perbezaan penandaan titik huruf di dalam mashaf. Daripada huruf Hija’iyyah tersebut, huruf Ba’ menjadi fokus kajian berdasarkan susunan yang lebih terdahulu berbanding empat huruf lain dalam kategorinya. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan maklumat yang lebih terperinci dan tepat agar tidak berlaku kesamaran dalam kalangan masyarakat. Ini merupakan kajian kualitatif. Dapatan kajian adalah bersumberkan dokumentasi dan persejarahan yang dianalisis menggunakan metode analisis teks dan kandungan. Hasil kajian mendapati sebab huruf Ba’ diberikan satu titik sahaja di bahagian bawah adalah kerana tiga faktor daripada empat faktor keseluruhan. Kesimpulannya, huruf Ba’ didapati mempunyai keunikan tersendiri berbanding huruf Hija’iyyah yang lain di sisi aliran-aliran penandaan mashaf.

The Ottoman Mashaf has several streams in the selection of point markings on the Hija’iyyah letters. These differences in flow indirectly cause confusion among the people who do not know about the differences in the marking of letter dots in the mashaf. From the letters Hija'iyyah, the letter Ba’ became the focus of the study based on the earlier order compared to the other four letters in the category. This study aims to obtain more detailed and accurate information so that there is no ambiguity in the community. This is a qualitative study. The findings of the study are sourced from documentation and history that are analyzed using text and content analysis methods. The results of the study found that the reason the letter Ba’ was given only one dot at the bottom was because of three factors out of a total of four factors. In conclusion, the letter Ba’ was found to have its own uniqueness compared to other Hija'iyyah letters in terms of mashaf marking trends.

Authors: Baha Norhazerah , Mohammad Iznan Tarip
Published: October 2023

Agama Islam telah memberikan garispandu dalam menghiasi diri yang merangkumi perhiasan zahir iaitu Zīnah Muktasabah dan Zīnah Nafsiyah sebagai perhiasan batin. Telah ditemukan pada kajian lepas tentang amalan fesyen yang berfokuskan kepada kewajipan menutup ‘aurat ke atas Muslimah. Namun demikian, konsep penghayatan Islam kurang diketengahkan dalam konteks Islam khususnya dalam amalan berfesyen. Oleh itu, kajian ini ingin menelusuri konsep penghayatan Islam dalam amalan berfesyen Muslimah berkerjaya di Brunei. Kepentingan kajian ini ialah untuk meneliti sejauh mana praktikal Islam itu dimanifestasikan dalam amalan fesyen secara menyeluruh. Kajian ini menggunakan pendekatan analisis data biografi, teks dan tematik. Dapatan bagi kajian ini diteliti dengan analisis deduktif berdasarkan kepada literatur melalui pengumpulan data secara naratif. Kajian mendapati bahawa Muslimah berkerjaya di negara ini lebih menghayati praktikal Islam dalam Zīnah Nafsiyah berbanding dengan menutup ‘aurat dalam Zīnah Muktasabah.

Islam has given a guideline for adorning oneself, including external adornment, which is Zīnah Muktasabah, dan internal adornment, known as Zīnah Nafsiyah. Previous studies have focused on covering the ‘aurat among Muslim women. However, the concept of internalisation of Islam is less highlighted in the context of Muslim women fashion. Therefore, this study explores the internalisation of Islam in fashion practices amongst Muslim working women here in Brunei. The importance of this study is to seek the extent of the manifestation of Islam in the practice of fashion holistically. This study uses a biographical, textual and thematic data analysis approach. The findings are examined with deductive analysis based on literature through narrative data collection. This study found that there are more Muslim working women observing fashion in the aspect of Zīnah Nafsiyah rather than Zīnah Muktasabah.

Jurisprudens Watan: Suatu Pengenalan Prinsip Tadbir Urus yang Baik Dilihat Melalui Perkara 181(1) Perlembagaan Persekutuan Malaysia [Watanic Jurisprudence: An Introduction To The Principles of Good Governance Viewed from Article 181(1) of The Federal Cons
Authors: Wan Husain Wan Ahmad Fauzi , Hamzah Amer Hudhaifah
Published: October 2023

Tadbir urus yang baik mempunyai prinsip etika yang tertakluk pada doktrin suatu perlembagaan. Doktrin perlembagaan pula mempunyai hubungan yang kuat dengan prinsip kedaulatan undang-undang. Banyak pihak membahaskan tentang kedaulatan undang-undang, malangnya Perkara 181(1) Perlembagaan Persekutuan sering diabaikan. Perkara 181(1) penting kerana dalam peruntukan itu menjelaskan prinsip kedaulatan Malaysia. Makalah ini mengemukakan prinsip tadbir urus yang baik berlandaskan doktrin undang-undang Malaysia. Metodologi jurisprudens watan digunakan untuk menentukan prinsip kedaulatan dan doktrin undang-undang Malaysia. Dapatan menunjukkan prinsip Tadbir urus yang baik berteraskan konsep khalifah, keadilan dan syura. Tiga buah konsep tersebut melahirkan prinsip integriti, akauntabiliti, amar maaruf, nahi munkar, teliti, muhasabah, ketelusan, persamaan dan kebebasan. Dari aspek perlaksanaannya pula, prinsip Tadbir urus yang baik dapat dikuatkuasakan melalui prinsip kuasa eksekutif Yang di-Pertuan Agong. Kesimpulannya, implikasi kedaulatan watan tanah air memberi legitimasi kepada pemakaian prinsip Tadbir urus yang baik menurut Islam dalam kerangka undang-undang Perlembagaan Persekutuan. Tadbir urus yang baik berprinsipkan Islam bukan sahaja terpakai kepada Yang di-Pertuan Agong, malah kepada sesiapa sahaja yang melaksanakan kuasa eksekutif baginda.    

Good governance has ethical principles that are subject to the doctrine of a constitution. The constitutional doctrine, in turn, has a strong relationship with the principle of the rule of law. Many parties debate the rule of law, unfortunately, Article 181(1) of the Federal Constitution is often ignored. Article 181(1) is important because the provision explains the principle of Malaysia's sovereignty. This paper presents the principles of good governance based on Malaysia's legal doctrine. The Watanic jurisprudence methodology is used to determine the principles of sovereignty and the legal doctrine of Malaysia. The findings show good governance principles are based on the concept of the caliph, justice, and shura. These three concepts produce the principles of integrity, accountability, Amar ma'aruf, Nahi Munkar, prudence, self-reflection, transparency, equality, and freedom. In terms of implementation, good governance principles can be enforced through the principle of executive power of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong. In conclusion, the implications of the indigenous sovereignty of the homeland give legitimacy to adopting good governance principles in Islam within the framework of the Federal Constitution. The good governance of Islamic principles is not only applicable to the Yang di-Pertuan Agong but also to anyone executing his executive powers.

Pasukan Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM) merupakan badan keselamatan terulung yang bertanggungjawab memastikan keselamatan masyarakat dan kedaulatan negara Malaysia terus terpelihara. Kalimah “Allah” dan “Muhammad” pada logo PDRM merupakan bukti bahawa PDRM sentiasa menjunjung tinggi kesucian Islam dan keagungan Allah SWT dengan mengikuti petunjuk yang disampaikan oleh baginda nabi Muhammad SAW. Namun begitu, PDRM sering berhadapan dengan persepsi negatif dalam kalangan masyarakat awam terhadap ketelusan PDRM sehingga menjadi punca penubuhan Jabatan Integriti dan Pematuhan Standard (JIPS) PDRM pada tanggal 25 Julai 2014. Sehubungan itu, pemerkasaan kualiti integriti dalam kalangan warga kerja PDRM perlu dipertingkatkan melalui kefahaman ilmu asas Fardu ain dalam diri setiap individu muslim. Oleh itu, Makalah ini bertujuan untuk menilai Tahap Pelaksanaan dan Kefahaman ilmu Fardu ain dalam kalangan warga kerja PDRM di Pusat Latihan Polis Kuala Lumpur. Dapatan kajian diperolehi hasil soal selidik para responden seramai 250 orang yang terdiri daripada Pegawai Kanan, Pegawai Rendah, dan Pegawai Awam polis yang berkhidmat di Pusat Latihan Polis Kuala Lumpur. Hasil kajian mendapati tahap pelaksanaan dan kefahaman ilmu Fardu ain warga kerja PDRM di PULAPOL KL sangat tinggi.

The Royal Malaysian Police Force (PDRM) is the premier security agency responsible for ensuring the safety of the public and the sovereignty of Malaysia. The words "Allah" and "Muhammad" on the PDRM logo are proof that the PDRM always upholds the purity of Islam and the majesty of Allah SWT by following the instructions given by the prophet Muhammad SAW. Nevertheless, the PDRM is often faced with a negative perception among the public towards the transparency of the PDRM, which is the reason for the establishment of the PDRM Integrity and Standard Compliance Department (JIPS) on July 25, 2014. Accordingly, the empowerment of the quality of integrity among PDRM employees needs to be improved through understanding the basic knowledge of Fardu Ain in every individual Muslim. Therefore, this paper aims to evaluate the level of implementation and understanding of Fardu ain knowledge among PDRM workers at the Kuala Lumpur Police Training Center. The findings of the study were obtained from a questionnaire of 250 respondents consisting of Senior Officers, Junior Officers, and Civilian Police Officers who serve at the Kuala Lumpur Police Training Center. The results of the study found that the level of implementation and understanding of Fardu ain knowledge among PDRM workers in PULAPOL KL is very high.

Los defectos transmurales del tracto gastrointestinal superior suponen una situación clínica compleja, asociando una elevada morbimortalidad.

El desarrollo de la endoscopia en los últimos años ha reducido progresivamente la necesidad de intervención quirúrgica en estos casos. Se han descrito diversas técnicas endoscópicas utilizadas en el cierre de estos defectos, destacando la colocación de stents metálicos recubiertos.

La Terapia de vacío endoluminal (TVE) es una técnica emergente en el tratamiento endoscópico de fístulas, dehiscencias y otros defectos transmurales del tracto gastrointestinal superior. Consiste en la aplicación intracavitaria o intraluminal de presión negativa continua para favorecer el cierre del defecto.

Este nuevo método destaca por su seguridad, su baja tasa de eventos adversos y su eficacia respecto a otras técnicas aplicadas en este contexto. Su principal inconveniente es la necesidad de revisión endoscópica repetida para el recambio del sistema utilizado.

En esta revisión se abordan los aspectos básicos de la TVE, sus potenciales aplicaciones en la práctica clínica y la evidencia científica que existe actualmente para su indicación respecto a otras terapias endoscópicas utilizadas en este contexto.
