Genealogi Hukum Islam di Indonesia
Authors: Sa'diyah Fatichatus , Islamiyah Islamiyah , Najib Muhammad , Fattah Abdul 
Published: June 2024

Artikel ini mengkaji ulang bagaimana sejarah hukum Islam di Indonesia serta bentuk konkritnya dalam sebuah lembaga. Pembahasan ini menarik untuk dikaji dengan mempertimbangakan beberapa hal. Pertama, pelacakan terhadap asal usul hukum di Indonesia harus diluruskan untuk menghindari asumsi bahwa hukum positif Indonesia mengabaikan hukum Islam. Kedua, Indonesia merupakan negara dengan populasi muslim terbesar di dunia, namun tidak menerapkan pancasila sebagai dasar hukumnya. Kajian terhadap sejarah hukum Islam harus dilanjutkan untuk menunjukkan posisi hukum Islam di Indonesia. Penelitian inia dalah penelitian deskriptif-historis dengan menggunaka teori Arnold J Toynbee tentang Challenge dan Opportunities. Pada dasarnya, hukum Islam sudah dipraktikkan di Indonesia sejak zaman kerajaan. Berdasarkan teori Toynbee, keadaan yang berliku saat terancamnya pemberlakuan hukum Islam, hingga saat masa-masa awal Indonesia merdeka merupakan sebuah challenge atau sebuah tantangan dalam pelaksanaan hukum Islam. Terbentuknya hukum Islam dalam sebuah lembaga pengadilan agama dan Majelis Ulama Indonesia merupakan sebuah tanggapan atas fenomena lika-liku tersebut. Kini, pengadilan agama dan Majelis Ulama Indonesia mengalami perkembangan pesat terutama pada struktur, kekuasaan dan prosedurnya yang sama dengan peradilan yang lainnya di Indonesia. Tidak hanya berkembang secara struktur, keduanya telah memiliki produk yang menjadi acuan umat Islam hingga saat ini; Pengadilan Agama dengan Kompilasi Hukum Islamnya dan Majelis Ulama Indonesia dengan Fatwanya.
Hubungan Antara Kerja Tafsir dan Ulum al-Qur'an

Al-Qurâ€™an diturunkan dalam bahasa Arab. Karena itu ada anggapan bahwa setiap orang yang mengerti bahasa Arab mengerti isi al-Qurâ€™an. Lebih dari itu, ada orang yang merasa telah dapat memahami dan menafsirkan al-Qurâ€™an dengan bantuan terjemahannya sekalipun ia tidak mengerti bahasa Arab. Anggapan seperti itu sebenarnya keliru. Sebab, banyak orang yang mengerti bahasa Arab, tetapi tidak mengerti isi Al-Qurâ€™an. Karena itu, tidak mengherankan bila orang Arab sendiri banyak yang tidak mengerti kandungan Al-Qurâ€™an. Dari hal ini maka menjadi keharusan bagi Muslim umumnya dan mufassir khusunya , untuk mempelajari ilmu-ilmu yang berkaitan dengan Al-Qurâ€™an sebagai pedoman hidup umat manusia. Ilmu-ilmu itu meliputi asbabun nuzul, nasakh-mansukh, ilmu tafsir dan masih banyak lagi. Dan ilmu-ilmu tersebut dikenal dengan istilah â€œulum al-Qurâ€™an.

General properties of verbs of movement in English
Authors: Хидирова Г.А. , Курбанова П.Г. 
Published: June 2024

в статье анализируются общие свойства глаголов движения в английском языке. Глаголы движения представляют собой слова с широким значением, передающим обобщенный характер понятия движения. Слова широкого значения уточняются в контексте, реализуясь в лексических вариантах. Из ряда этих вариантов выделяется главный лексический вариант, который не ограничен сочетаемостью и может реализоваться в нескольких дистрибутивных формулах. В английском используется один и тот же глагол широкой семантики, тогда как в русском приходится выбирать новый глагол в зависимости от других слов. В связи с этим, конкретное значение английских глаголов движения зависит от контекста в значительной мер, чем в русском, где английскому глаголу широкой семантики соответствуют слова с более конкретной семантикой. Такие формулы дополняют толкование глаголов, помогая воспринимать их семантику. В отдельных случаях сложно описать лексические варианты, не указывая, на характерные им, синтаксические связи. В отдельных случаях единственным признаком для них является синтаксическая связь. На нее приходится опираться при выделении семантики в дистрибутивных формулах.
the article analyzes the general properties of verbs of movement in the English language. Verbs of movement are words with a broad meaning that conveys the generalized nature of the concept of movement. Words of broad meaning are clarified in context, being realized in lexical variants. From a number of these variants, the main lexical variant stands out, which is not limited by compatibility and can be implemented in several distributive formulas. In English, the same verb is used in a wide range of semantics, whereas in Russian you have to choose a new verb depending on other words. In this regard, the specific meaning of English verbs of movement depends on the context to a large extent than in Russian, where the English verb of broad semantics corresponds to words with more specific semantics. Such formulas complement the interpretation of verbs, helping to perceive their semantics. In some cases, it is difficult to describe lexical variants without pointing out their characteristic syntactic connections. In some cases, the only sign for them is a syntactic connection. It is necessary to rely on it when allocating semantics in distributive formulas.

Published: June 2024

A sociedade moderna vem impondo ao longo dos anos um padrão estético no qual os corpos magros e/ou musculosos são supervalorizados, sendo associados à beleza e à visibilidade social. A literatura recorrentemente destaca o aumento do risco e prevalência de insatisfação da Imagem Corporal (IC) e Transtornos Alimentares (TA) em alunos de graduação da área da saúde, em especial alunos do curso de nutrição. O objetivo do presente estudo é realizar a caracterização sóciodemográfica dos estudantes do Curso de Nutrição de um centro universitário de Fortaleza-CE e avaliar a associação entre imagem corporal e o possível risco de transtorno alimentar. Trata-se de um estudo transversal de caráter quantitativo de cunho exploratório e analítico. Foram utilizados nesta pesquisa: questionário sociodemográfico, questionário EAT-26 e Escala de Silhuetas desenvolvida e validada para adultos brasileiros. Os dados foram analisados pelo software estatístico Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) versão 22.0. A amostra compreendeu 104 estudantes com idade média de 25,5±6,93 anos, sendo a maioria do sexo feminino (82,6%). Em relação aos dados antropométricos, as médias de altura e peso foram significativamente maiores nos homens (p<0,05). A distorção de superestimação da imagem corporal (45,2%) e o desejo de diminuir a silhueta (59,6%), foram as percepções mais prevalentes e não significativamente diferentes entre os sexos. A taxa de estudantes que não apresentam risco para TA foi de 68,3% (16,03±8,74 pontos). A idade esteve diretamente relacionada às percepções da imagem corporal, pois a mediana da idade no grupo que deseja diminuir a silhueta foi maior do que os que desejam aumentar (p<0,05). Não houve associação entre as percepções de imagem corporal e o risco para transtornos alimentares. É preciso ter atenção em relação aos estudantes de nutrição, pois eles apresentam uma certa pressão relacionada à imagem corporal e ao emagrecimento. Diante disso, nossos dados são importantes para complementar o conhecimento sobre o assunto.

Authors: Ilugbami Joseph Olanrewaju , Adeniran Adetayo Olaniyi , OYENIRAN Gbemileke Tobi 
Published: June 2024

Purpose: Boko Haram (BH) originated around 2002 as a local Islamic movement primarily for preaching and charity to locals in Maiduguri, Borno State. Their operations were altered in 2009 following a crackdown on its adherents by the Nigerian government, as a result of which spiritual and political head Muhammad Yusuf was assassinated. More than 38,000 individuals were killed by the Boko Haram conflict between 2009 and 2023. This study aims to assess the dangers posed by the BH uprisings on Nigeria’s security, which is affecting other socioeconomic dynamics, to suggest potential solutions to the uprising in Nigeria.
Methodology: This study used a qualitative research approach. A structured questionnaire was utilized for data collection. Nigerian security personnel make up the study’s target group. The participants were contacted based on convenience sampling. Data analysis was achieved using theme analysis.
Findings: The BH has increased its attacks against security forces and their formations, key government and private institutions, schools, worship centers (such as Churches and Mosques), and the general public, which includes girl-children and mothers. Their menace is eroding Nigeria’s existence as a single sovereign political territory. The survey indicated that poverty and religious misunderstanding were the main reasons for establishing Boko Haram. It was suggested that the Nigerian government should address the cause by reducing poverty, creating jobs, and strengthening security operations.
Originality/value: Poverty and religious misunderstanding were the main reasons for establishing Boko Haram. Cities, towns, villages, and human settlements in northeast Nigeria are not safe, not inclusive, not resilient, and a challenge to sustainability.

Aegilops tauchii is a D-genome donor of hexaploid wheat and is a potential source of genes for various biotic and abiotic stresses including heat and drought. In the present study, we used multi-stage evaluation technique to understand the effects of heat and drought stresses on Ae. tauschii derived introgression lines (ILs). Preliminary evaluation (during stage-I) of 369 ILs for various agronomic traits identified 59 agronomically superior ILs. In the second stage (stage-II), selected ILs (i.e., 59 ILs) were evaluated for seedling heat (at 30 °C and 35 °C) and drought (at 20% poly-ethylene glycol; PEG) stress tolerance under growth chambers (stage-II). Heat and drought stress significantly reduced the seedling vigour by 59.29 and 60.37 percent, respectively. Genotype × treatment interaction analysis for seedling vigour stress tolerance index (STI) identified IL-50, IL-56, and IL-68 as high-performing ILs under heat stress and IL-42 and IL-44 as high-performing ILs under drought stress. It also revealed IL-44 and IL-50 as the stable ILs under heat and drought stresses. Furthermore, in the third stage (stage-III), selected ILs were evaluated for heat and drought stress tolerance under field condition over two cropping seasons (viz., 2020–21 and 2021–22), which significantly reduced the grain yield by 72.79 and 48.70 percent, respectively. Stability analysis was performed to identify IL-47, IL-51, and IL-259 as the most stable ILs in stage-III. Tolerant ILs with specific and wider adaptability identified in this study can serve as the potential resources to understand the genetic basis of heat and drought stress tolerance in wheat and they can also be utilized in developing high-yielding wheat cultivars with enhanced heat and drought stress tolerance.
Insect Succession and Dynamics on Decomposing Piglets (Sus domesticus Erxleben) Carasses at Umudike, Southeast Nigeria
Authors: C. N. Ehisianya, , E. K. Ozum, , O. O. Okore, 
Published: June 2024

Aim: To determine the identity and distribution of insects colonizing ground-placed and hung decomposing domestic piglets (Sus domesticus) carcasses.
Place and Duration: Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike, Abia State, Nigeria.
Study carried out in two seasons: July to September, 2019 (wet), and January to March, 2020 (dry).
Methodology: Four healthy piglets with average weight of 3.73 kg were sacrificed for the trial by dislocating their cervical vertebrate (to mimic natural death), and put in cages. Two were placed on the ground, whereas the other two were hung on a tree. Data on arthropod populations, temperature, weights and decomposition stages and rates of carcasses were collected. Statistical tests were performed to evaluate insect species distribution and their relationships with the carcasses.
Results: Irrespective of placement, more insects were counted during the dry (655.20) than wet (529.96) seasons but not statistically different. The distribution of insects’ taxa showed Musca spp. (37.09 %), Chrysomya spp. (12.97 %), Pheidole spp. (12.09), Componotus spp. (9.69 %), Monomorium spp. (6.04 %) in seventeen genera, ten families in four orders. The relationship between insects’ abundance and mean weight were significantly (P = 0.05) negative (-0.53) and (-0.96) in the ground-place carcasses in the wet and dry seasons, respectively.
Conclusion: Results show that Musca spp. was the predominant species and Dysdercus spp. was the least throughout the decomposition period. Higher number of insects were counted from the carcasses in the dry than wet seasons. Insects’ abundance increases as the carcasses’ weights decreased.
