Although the Malaysian halal standard has been widely acknowledged and accepted, it generally governs only the physical aspects, such as, hygiene, safety and quality assurance, raw material, processing, and logistic activities. What it is still lacking in is a few critical elements of “tayyib” as typically offered by the commentators of the Qur’an. Scattered within 51 verses throughout 14 major topics in the Qur’anic, the term “tayyib” (or its derivatives) has to be revisited and reconsidered as it covers other criteria not previously contemplated, such as, the natural and the organic, or those pertaining to the halal food-supply chain or the supply chain management. This article aims to explore and extract the notions of “tayyib” from the thematic exegetical perspective of the Qur’an so that such notions will in turn provide the extended platform necessary for industrial standards and practices. The qualitative research methodology is used in this study through the thematic analysis of the Qur’an.","PeriodicalId":12715,"journal":{"name":"global journal al thaqafah","volume":"69 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85531318","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This requires students to be empowered in the affective domain to achieve balance with the cognitive and psychomotor domains. Student involvement in substance abuse, as well as an increase in mental health problems including depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts, are among the signs of a void in the affective or psychological aspects. The purpose of the paper is to highlight scholars’ discourse concerning the position of the affective domain and its challenge in integrating it into the learning taxonomy. This study involves utilizing content analysis of library documents. Data were processed using an analytical-synthetic descriptive method followed by deductive and inductive analysis. The results obtained showed that the cognitive domain was more dominant in the learning taxonomy, even though the affective domain has received more discussion. Accordingly, this study recommends conducting further research to incorporate appropriate elements from the existing taxonomy models with the main principle of Islamic education that emphasizes both psychological and spiritual development. Discourse on akhlaq and tasawuf in Muslim society is most noteworthy when it comes to applying the affective domain, allowing for complete conscious awareness of the mind (mindfulness) in human beings. A balance integration of cognitive and affective domains can be achieved to create a holistic human being as outlined in the Malaysiuan National Education Policy. As such, this will indirectly contribute to achieving quality tertiary education to ensure a prosperous society in this Industrial Revolution 4.0 era.","PeriodicalId":12715,"journal":{"name":"global journal al thaqafah","volume":"77 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83989908","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Prior to the type II burst, a flare of class M4.44 was detected by the GOES satellite and seen in x-ray flux data. AR 2790 generated the solar flare, but it was hidden behind the southeastern limb of the Sun, so the active region was not visible in the solar disk on November 29th, 2020. As far as solar flare explosions go, this was the biggest in three years since October 20th, 2017, from AR2685. Due to the proximity of these events, it is thought that the solar flare triggered a partial-halo CME at 13:25UT. From the CME’s velocity and flare association, we infer that it is an impulsive CME.","PeriodicalId":12715,"journal":{"name":"global journal al thaqafah","volume":"40 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87276939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It uses a qualitative study approach through a case study strategy. Through interviews with respondents in an individual counseling session, this study involves the purposive sampling method aimed at eleven adolescents aged 16 to 20 years who are undergoing rehabilitation. The data obtained from the interviews were analyzed thematically using the Atlas.ti application. Data analysis enabled the identification of underlying themes that further contributed to the main themes for this study. Results show three main themes identified for individual factors: low self-esteem, social interest, and personality formation. Meanwhile, for spiritual factors, two elements were successfully formed: belief and confidence and the motivation to worship.

However, the practice of simply construing the word from the text as ‘the planet’ may lead to anachronism. To fill such a gap in defining the word al-kawkab in hadith, this study explores the meaning of the word, which has a deep-rooted association with the Arabic culture dated back to the 7th century CE. Through a qualitative design, this study employs the use of thematic analysis to explore the meaning of the words al-kawkab or al-kawākib in al-Ṣaḥīḥayn (the two Authentic Books of Hadith). First, the Malay translations of the words in available scholarly publications are identified because they are reliable for predominantly Muslim readers in Malaysia. In grasping the intricate contents and facts underlying the hadith on al-kawkab, this study relies on the references in hadith, astronomy, language, history, Quranic exegesis, and pre-Islamic poetries. Ultimately, this study finds that the scholarly publications that contribute to defining al-kawkab in hadith, do not provide proper translation. Upon delving into the details of the word in al-Ṣaḥīḥayn, this study learns that al-kawkab constitutes of six meanings. Predictably, the usage of the word in hadith indicates that the Ancient Arabs considered al-kawkab could mean several types of luminous celestial objects and does not necessarily mean ‘planet’ as per modern-day comprehension. Hence, this study recommends the correct translation of the word al-kawkab or al-kawākib in hadith, which fulfills the exact meaning derived from the occasion of each narration.","PeriodicalId":12715,"journal":{"name":"global journal al thaqafah","volume":"121 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74834537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sulh is a form of peacekeeping mechanism laid down by the shariah, and in the Quran, Sulh is regarded as a form of conciliation and “the best form of settlement”. Traditionally, Sulh has been employed as a dispute resolution method in societies, from marital dispute to contractual disagreement. While many confined the spectrum on Sulh only in the area of dispute resolution, research on how Sulh could be employed as a dispute avoidance procedure is yet to be found, although, essentially it has been practiced as such by the Prophet and his companions. With regard to the construction industry, the dispute has caused multi-billion Ringgit of losses. While there are acceptable methods to avoid dispute from conventional perspective in the industry, dispute avoidance from the perspective of shariah has not been addressed. This paper aims to examine how Sulh could be employed as a procedure to avoid dispute. This study adopts qualitative methods where the secondary data are collected from books, journals, reports and statutes to review the practices of dispute avoidance in the construction industry, as well as in shariah. Moving on, the content analysis is adopted to analyse on how Sulh fits in the construction industry as a dispute avoidance practice by comparing the key criteria with the conventional dispute avoidance mechanisms. The finding shows that Sulh shares many similarities with the conventional dispute avoidance; thus, supporting the notion that dispute avoidance is not absolutely absent in shariah, which provides for a possibility to be applied in the construction industry.","PeriodicalId":12715,"journal":{"name":"global journal al thaqafah","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91345335","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Over 16 weeks, students are exposed to knowledge and skills in a real work environment in preparation for graduation. This includes 57 students from Bachelor of Muamalat, the Academy of Contemporary Islamic Studies, Universiti Teknologi MARA, where their achievements are assessed by their employers. The objective of this paper is to analyze the performance of the students who participated in one of these industrial trainings. They are assessed on three aspects – their cognitive ability, skills, and work attitude – using 18 items of the 5-Point Likert Scale instrument. Data obtained were taken from a pre-designed questionnaire in addition to the study of reference documents. The data were then analyzed using inductive and deductive descriptive methods, as well as the Rasch Measurement Model. Data analysis is done using three criteria: the value of reliability, separation of items, and respondents as the Persons-items Distribution Map (PIDM). Research findings show that the instrument has a high reliability (person = 0.92; item = 0.79) with a separation value of person = 3.30 good, but vice versa for item = 1.94. Results show that 36 (63.2%) students were free and excellent; they were above the mean person (+3.79logit). 10 (17.5%) students were considered extreme persons as they were rated very excellently by the industrial supervisors. On the opposite side, there were two (3.5%) students who were rated weak because they were below the minimum item (-1.33logit). The findings of this study will help the industry to design a more comprehensive employee training system in the future, while the university can improve the provision of education that meets the needs of the current job market.","PeriodicalId":12715,"journal":{"name":"global journal al thaqafah","volume":"52 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73349609","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The different approaches to psychotherapy do not recognise the existence of jinn possession and thus may be shunned by those with jinn possession. Jinn is spiritually similar to humans and is accountable for their actions. Like the human, jinn has a psyche comprising the aql (intellect faculty) and the qalb (cognitive faculty). In jinn possession, the jinn psyche exists alongside the human psyche in the human body, creating inter-psyche conflicts between both psyches. The conflicts are not limited to psychological but can also extend to physical conflicts when both psyches compete to control the human central nervous system. Therapy for jinn possession requires changing the power balance to eliminate the dominance of the jinn psyche over the human psyche. Ruqyah can weaken the jinn’s physical ability, but psychotherapy is needed to strengthen the human mind to address the inter-psyche conflicts. Using Islamic existential philosophy as an approach, a new Islamic Existential Psychotherapy (IEP) discusses both human and jinn existential issues and the conflicts between the two species. The impact of IEP on 209 patients with jinn possession, 65 of them with mental disorders, who attended a treatment retreat programme was analysed. Thus, two main themes emerged in the IEP sessions, and IEP was highly successful in changing patients’ approach to the diagnosis of jinn possession, increasing their self-esteem, higher motivation, and compliance through the understanding of inter psyche conflicts. As a result, IEP is highly suitable for the psychological intervention of jinn possession as it recognises jinn possession and addresses inter-psyche conflicts between the jinn psyche and the human psyche. It is also in harmony with the belief of Muslims and is more palatable to Muslim clients in explaining issues such as the purpose and meaning of life, guilt, grief, and coping mechanisms.","PeriodicalId":12715,"journal":{"name":"global journal al thaqafah","volume":"20 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72405367","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
