Authors: AlHinai Yousuf Salim , Alsabahi Juhaina , AlWahaibi Zahra
Published: November 2023

The burst in the use of social networking sites such as MySpace, Facebook, Bebo and Friendster has brought many opportunities, changes and challenges into our world. The impact of this type of media can be social, psychological, and/or economic. For many societies, the social impact is a major concern since these technologies with their rapid spread have succeeded in influencing the attitudes of various groups of individuals. The role that social media played in the recent unrests in the Arab world is a clear example of such an impact. Oman, like all other countries, is also facing the same challenge. Among all other age groups in Oman, teenagers from 13 to 19 years old make up a major segment in the demographic structure of the country. Therefore, it is very important to study and understand the impact of the rapidly-growing social networking media on this group. The present research aims to contribute to this understanding by investigating the social impact of social networking media on teenagers in Oman. We survey teenagers’ use of and perceptions about these technologies, in addition to parents’ perceptions. By combining these two perspectives, this research aims to provide several contributions to both theory and practice. The results revealed that almost all teenagers (99%) agreed that the social networking sites are beneficial. They believe that using social networking sites does not impact their social behavior.
A Book Review of Thomas Edward Lawrence’s Revolt in the Desert A Critical Review
Authors: En-Nehas Jamal
Published: November 2023

Reading Revolt in the Desert, the recently published abridged version of Seven Pillars of Wisdom—T. E. Lawrence’s rendition of the overt and covert journeys in the Middle East in support of the Arab rebellion against Turkish Ottoman rule—entails a journey in itself—in time, space and myth—in order to come to grips with recent history and its complex ramifications. Unlike Palgrave, Gertrude Bell and the Blunts, Lawrence knew the terrain well, had a clear agenda and was primarily interested in Realpolitik , political expediency and military pragmatism, and certainly not in the magnificence of the East or its cultural and mythical splendors.
Salalah :Perfume Capital of Arabia A Visitor Profile Study
Authors: Abdul-Ghani Mohamed
Published: November 2023

In an effort to develop and implement effective promotion strategies for tourism in a specific destination, it is important to describe the characteristics and behaviors of visitors to the destination as well as monitor changes and trends in the region’s tourism industry. One of the most common methods to accomplish this objective is to conduct a visitor’s profile study. This study aimed to determine the characteristics of visitors to the city of SALALAH as a whole. This study viewed SALALAH tourist profile with regards to two major key variables namely: the tourists’ socioeconomic characteristics and the tourists’ behavioral characteristics. While the tourists’ socio-economic characteristics are often described in terms of age, sex, education and income levels, behavioral characteristics include tourists’ motivation, attitudes, needs and values. These characteristics are essential not only because they all influence the magnitude, frequency, and kind of interaction with the physical attributes of the tourism destination and its people but also because they play a crucial role in contributing to the tourist decision-making processes.

Administrative Detention and Its Objective and Procedural Warrantees: A Study of the Jordanian Law
Authors: Hatamla Saleem
Published: November 2023

Personal freedom is the essence of human life. It is not created by legislation or laws. It is rather regulated by laws to reconcile its various aspects and achieve the common good of the community. It, therefore, does not accept restrictions except those that are necessary. The freedom of people should always be maintained; it is not permissible to arrest or detain any person except in accordance with the law. Accordingly, the Jordanian legislator was keen to put in place the procedural rules of administrative detention in terms of setting clear conditions for the practice of this detention and the reasons for resorting to it in order to reduce the abuse of this exercise by the authorities and to reduce the vulnerability of individuals at risk of such a practice. It is well-known that these actions result in a restriction of personal freedom but also it is known that these measures are aimed to protect society from risks. Detainees in this type of arrest are taken without trial, and it is exercised by the executive authority under the powers granted to it by the law. If all these precautions are meant to protect personal freedom and maintain its integrity, then how can the executive authority intervene in personal freedom and exercise maximum restrictions on it and tries to repeal it, given that this type of arrest is essentially a precautionary punitive measure? However, in this sense, it is in stark violation of the principle of legality of crimes and punishments, and it violates constitutional and legal warrantees. Despite all these principles about the sanctity of personal freedoms and the warrantees against excessive use of executive detention, it should be acknowledged that it is sometimes necessary for authorities to administer such a measure. This perplexing situation makes us endeavor to study the provisions and terms governing this kind of arrest and investigate its reasons, in an attempt to state the legal basis that calls for its justification. The study also addresses the main principles governing the behavior of authorities while exercising this detention and the main effects of such a practice.
Principles of arabic noun gender: An overview of learning difficulties
Authors: Alaqtash Abdulhamid , Talafha Amjad
Published: November 2023

Arab linguists have distinguished between the animate and inanimate gender of nouns, where the former was assigned a male or female natural gender and the later a grammatical gender, and so the distinction between the real natural gender and the figurative grammatical gender has spread widely in Arabic grammar. Educational studies and linguistic research carried out by educationalists and linguists have indicated the prevalence of two difficulties in teaching and learning the issue of grammatical gender. The first is related to distinguishing between masculine and feminine within the same sex; the other is related to the multiplicities in the structural forms of gender whether natural or grammatical This research focuses on the first difficulty as this difficulty reflects directly on the second difficulty whether right or wrong. This can be observed in the intensive grammatical agreement in topics such as verb – subject, subject - predicate, modified - modifier, and number agreement.
Egypt in modern Sudanese poetry: Vision and technical tools
Authors: Abdelmageed Mohammed Mahgoub Mohammed
Published: November 2023

This research studies Egypt in a selected sample of poems of modern Sudanese poetry. The study used the textual method to analyze stylistic and technical aspects of the poems chosen for this study. Sudanese poets have different views of Egypt based on their culture and psychological makeup and literary approach. Some poets had a simple vision despite their elevated diction, artificial rhetoric, and lifeless pathos; others had a more complex vision especially those who saw in Egypt the central state, with its science, history and civilization, and the ability to move the Arabs to wider horizons. The conservative poets relied heavily on stylistics and symbolic language expressions and intensified their structural formulations to meet the public’s tastes for clamor. Some used modern techniques like the narration, storytelling, and the internal monologue to express their visions. It was found that most texts analyzed in this study used the Khalili prosodics with the exception of a few new direction poets who used free verse to express themselves with smooth musicality without barriers as long as their poetry was fueled with profound passion, proper conscience, and a sense of simplicity. The Sudanese poet did not get rid of his old presentation of the image considering it a means for explanation, clarification, and extreme exaggeration. The image, therefore, appeared to be sensual and largely an imitation of ancient types. This, however, does not prevent the emergence of new forms.
The allegiance-offering ceremony of the caliphs and their heirs in the second Abbasid era (550-656 AH / 1155-1258 AD)
Authors: Alkadhat Mohammad
Published: November 2023

The period of this study witnessed a revival of the Abbasid Caliphate Institution after getting rid of foreign control. This was accompanied by a desire to revive the ceremonies that had stopped since the beginning of the fourth century AH. The ceremony of allegiance-offering to the Caliphs and their heirs was among several ceremonies that were revived during this period. The allegiance-offering ceremony was organized according to certain arrangements which begin on the day the former Caliph passes away, and end with a public allegianceoffering ceremony. This study attempts to trace those ceremonies, highlighting the religious and the media dimensions, which the Caliphate Institution was keen on stressing in these celebrations. The Caliphs saw in these ceremonies and the accompanying festivities and celebrations an important tool to enhance the image and aura of the Caliphate in the hearts of the public. They also saw these ceremonies as an opportunity to enhance the spiritual bond between the public and the Caliphate and the Caliphs. They also saw the ceremonies as a chance to assert their religious leadership of the Muslim World.
The Provisions of the Provisional Attachment Imposed on the Vessel According to the Jordanian Law: An Analytical Comparative Study
Authors: Al-Samamah Khalid , Al-Mansour Anis
Published: November 2023

This paper discusses the law of the provisional attachment imposed on vessels by legislators, who laid down special provisions to be imposed on the vessels in the Jordanian Marine Law, whilst leaving the matter to the general rules of the Civil Procedures Law. By this, they ruled in opposition to several legislations which took into account the special nature of the vessels, and legislated special provisions for provisionally attached vessels. This study points to the nature of the vessels which may be subject to provisional attachment, in addition to shedding light on the conditions that should be satisfied in order to provisionally attach them as well as the special measures set for the attachment, starting from identifying the competent parties to impose the attachment up to its implementation and the cases in which such attachment should be lifted. The study has concluded that the general provisions set for the provisional attachment cannot be adequately applied to the vessels due their special nature. Finally, the study recommends that the Jordanian legislator takes steps to legislate special regulations related to the provisional attachment to be imposed on the vessels, similar to other legislations which ruled accordingly.

Authors: Al-Kindi Abdullah K.
Published: November 2023

The central aim of this paper is to critically analyze the role of the media during public protests that occurred in the GCC countries during 2011. These protests were part of what came to be called the “Arab Spring”, which started in late 2010. Particular focus will be on how the Arab Spring resulted in fundamental changes and how various institutions played roles in this. The study draws on Gulf region literature about the Arab Spring in order to offer a critical and informed overview on the topic under discussion. The paper’s main question is: what are the main roles played by the GCC media (old/new) during the public protests of 2011? The paper argues that the role of the media in the 2011 protests, while important, was rather limited and affected by the unique contextual characteristics of the media environment in the GCC countries.
Aesthetic Values the Color Blue Prevailing on the Ottoman Ceramic Artifacts: A Study in Islamic Heritage and the Arts
Authors: Elnahas Rehab
Published: November 2023

The blue color on the Ottoman ceramic artifacts can be studied from the perspectives of different sciences: in terms of color aesthetics, which is a kind of philosophy of beauty, or as part of the science of photography and graphics. Additionally, for some communities the importance of this color lies at the heart of anthropology, but it is also at the core Islamic art and archeology. Blue is one of the original colors that humans have known since ancient times. It is associated with the elements of nature as it symbolizes the sky, sea, and serenity. This color is especially important in popular beliefs as we find a lot of amulets that use the blue color especially those which are believed to avert the eyes of envy. The blue color has appeared on many of the Ottoman Islamic artifacts, especially ceramic artifacts, since ceramics were among the most used materials in life which expressed the social and intellectual life of both artists and manufacturers. The research will analyze the importance of the blue color of ceramic artifacts in the study of heritage and archaeology and how these blue decorative elements on these ceramic pieces relate to social life.

Published: November 2023

Water appears in modern Arabic poetry as a semantically distinguished and rich structural component where meanings expand and ideas flow. And this, in turn, enriches the poet’s imagination and fulfils his desire to depict his life experience using creative visions. This study aims to examine the poetics of water in the work of the Omani poet Awadh Al- Luweihi, namely his collection of poems entitled “Running Water Betrays the Puddles” which explicitly embodies the contemporary poet’s ability to open new poetic horizons in which rich vocabulary provides texts with new connotations that enjoy an obvious intellectual dimension, and mature artistic craft which creates images and different themes and connotations. The poet’s reliance on the concept of “water” in composing his poetry shows the impact of this poetic theme and its role in the understanding of the poetic self and the ability of portraying life with all its contrasts.

Dalam praktik pembelajaran dan penilaian di kelas inklusi, guru harus dapat menfasilitasi cara belajar siswa normal dan siswa berkebutuhan khusus secara bersamaan. Namun demikian, penelitian tentang praktik Pembelajaran dan penilaian yang mengakomodasi siswa normal dan siswa berkebutuhan khusus sangat terbatas. Untuk alasan inilah, penelitian ini bertujuan meneliti praktik Pembelajaran dan penilaian dalam konteks kelas inklusi dengan fokus cara guru memberikan pertanyaan dan umpan balik yang efektif pada siswa Down Sindrome (DS).  Penelitian ini melibatkan  dua orang guru dari dua Sekolah Dasar Inklusi. Pengambilan data dilakukan saat  proses pembelajaran serta wawancara terhadap guru dan siswa DS. Temuan penelitian mengungkapkan bahwa guru menggunakan tiga pertimbangan dalam memberikan pertanyaan menggali dan umpan balik yang efektif bagi siswa DS, yaitu pertimbangan: (1) tingkat intelegensi  dengan memberikan pertanyaan langsung, pendek, dan kongkret; (2) sosial-emosional dengan memberikan umpan balik dan penguatan; serta (3) keterbatasan fungsi mental lain dengan mengunakan media visual dan komunikasi non-verbal. Implikasi dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa ketika kehadiran pembelajar berkebutuhan khusus sama pentingnya dengan anak normal, guru harus dapat atau dilatih merancang praktik pembelajaran dengan keberagaman  peserta didik dan temuan penelitian ini dapat berkontribusi untuk itu. Implilasi lain penelitian ini adalah memberikan pemahaman lebih baik tentang Pembelajaran dan penilaian di kelas inklusi dan implementasinya di ruang  kelas
