Questions related to Islam
i want to understand if the model that has low or no interest rates at all imposed on loans work much better compared to the conventional funding model mostly used by the western countries
Our beloved prophet (MPBUH) used to pray ' 'O Allah guide me to see the reality as it is and to form an opinion according to its reality'. We are confronted with freely floating fiat money. The basic understanding of Islam shows and all Schools agree that measurability is essential condition for Riba. Unless one can measure something how does one know what is its Misl (equal). Riba is excess. In absence of measurement one can not know if there is excess. Absolute majority of our scholars do not know how to measure a free float. Prior to 1971/1914 we had no such problem and therefore other than our current understanding nothing other than Quran and Sunnah (including great work of our Fuqaha regarding its understanding and interpretation) is relevant in this case. The solution is simple consider fiat money to be what it is and apply Shariah on it according to its reality. Basic understanding of Riba shows that it can not be that it is not Ribawi. Accordingly it must be measurable as Shariah can never be wrong/irrelevant. You do not know how to measure ask those who know.

Early Islam refers to the formative period of the Islamic religion, beginning with the life and teachings of the Prophet Muhammad in the early 7th century and extending to the first few generations of Muslims who succeeded him. This period is of great significance in Islamic history, as it laid the foundation for the development and spread of the religion.
During the early years of Islam, Muhammad received revelations from God, which were later compiled into the Quran, the holy book of Islam. He preached monotheism, social justice, and moral conduct, and his teachings attracted a growing number of followers. Muhammad and his followers faced opposition and persecution from the dominant tribes in Mecca, but they eventually migrated to the city of Medina in 622 CE, known as the Hijra. This event marked the beginning of the Islamic calendar.
In Medina, Muhammad established a thriving community and continued to spread his message. He also became a political leader, uniting various tribes under the banner of Islam. The early Muslim community faced military conflicts with Meccan forces and other tribes, leading to several significant battles. Eventually, the Muslims achieved military victories and gained control over the Arabian Peninsula.
Following Muhammad's death in 632 CE, the early Muslims faced the challenge of establishing a leadership structure. This led to the appointment of Abu Bakr, Umar ibn al-Khattab, Uthman ibn Affan, and Ali ibn Abi Talib as the first four caliphs (successors) of Islam. This period, known as the Rashidun Caliphate, is often considered a golden age of Islam, characterized by expansion, codification of religious practices, and the compilation of the Quran.
Early Islam witnessed the development of Islamic jurisprudence, the formation of a strong Muslim community, and the expansion of Islam beyond the Arabian Peninsula. It also witnessed the codification of various religious, legal, and ethical principles that continue to form the foundation of Islamic beliefs and practices to this day.
If I am working on dealing with sadness as being stigmatized as "sinful/immoral" culturally in Muslim societies that made a roadblock to the process of sad emotion regulation psychologically, which emotion regulation difficulty is a renowned risk factor across emotional psychopathologies - and I propose solutions from the Qur'an as Muslims' Holy Scripture, is this effort considered as a "bioethic study" although I embarked and am involved from the Islamic Studies field?

Assalamu Alaikum and good day to everyone,
My study theoretical framework includes five different independents variables from IDT and TPB. Now the QUESTION is since I used two theories to support my research study as "Underpinning Theory", so to support/reference them?
During my work completion defence (WCD), the examiners suggested me to give strong support as I used two theories.
So kindly, please suggest to me how to give strong support? Also please give me any related article as I can give the support before go through my final viva.

Hi there,
looking for comparative research regarding the respect for the concept of nature, animals, and plants for the major world religions. Differences between e.g. Abrahamic Religions, Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and other religions seem to be there.
Cherish your insights.
Reading Bruce Chatwin's Songlines where he describes how the songlines work amongst the aborigines of Australia, creating a spiritual network of Australia based on individual totems and their narratives. not only do we, therefore, have religion, but also psychology, geography and its symbolism (I recently read a Muslim writer who claimed the latter for Islam) but a sense of knowledge connected to both individuals and tribes.
Does this reach back in time thereby representing a means of transmitting knowledge over a long distance but also preserving it?
Islamic Psychology is a new field combining Islamic Studies and Psychology in an effort to Islamize the field of Psychology to fit Islamic practicing Muslims' [whatever the sect they affiliated to as the umbrella that covers Islam and Muslims are very vast, wide and colourful diversity] needs. It was founded by the late Prof. Malik Badri Babiker who was based in International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) for a very long time away from his home country in Sudan since he first experienced dissonance between being a Muslim practicing Western psychology in his study days more than a half century ago.
Alhamdulillah, it was progressively developing as he would wish to see and more but the journals that the associations that advocate this budding field are new like established in 2018, thus, commonsensically still not indexed in Scopus list yet like those under International Association of Islamic Psychology and International Association of Muslim Psychologists. Even the mother journal of all Islamization efforts that was championed by International Islamic Thoughts (IIIT), which is previously named American Journal of Islamic Social Sciences, had to change its name into the American Journal of Islam and Society-AJIS [for no announced reason] also no longer indexed in the Scopus list [also without any apparent reason] although already established since 1984.
Most of the journals tried, had excused for a shortage of suitable/compatible peer-reviewers database who are multidisciplinarily able to see the Arabic language part being translated and the interaction between them in the interpretation of the Holy Qur'an, which some researchers in the social sciences specifically in Psychology considered it superstitious reverence to refer everything to it more specifically for those who were convinced with secular stance and lense of worldview in life. Thus, got high tendency of declining submission like it was being marginalized for being 'religious' in the beginning of the founding firmness of the late Prof Malik Badri on the dissonance of the mainstream worldview in practice to give freedom to the Muslims to feel fitting with what is practiced in living and believing.
So, what is our alternatives?
It takes time to reach the established level the Western had reached after the post-colonialism.

What is Islamic anthropology? is it a new discipline? or a sub-field in Anthropology? or Islamization of western anthropology?
If I take the first question, then, would claim a Quranic Anthropology?

If Subfield, then obviously, what is the line of demarcation with Anthropology of Islam of Islamic Anthropology?

Zakat is the third pillar of Islam and it is an obligatory
payment that a free and rational Muslim who owns a certain amount of wealth has to observe. Its importance in Islam is manifested by the numerous pairings of its obligation to that of prayer (salah) in the Quran. Among the fundamentals of Islam, it has the most direct economic implications on Muslims for it involves the distribution of wealth from the affluent in society to those in need.
I am interested in the rules of conduct and in the differences between different Islamic traditions and subgroups.
I have been collecting the daily data for the Islamic stock market index in the largest Muslim population. I plan to investigate the performance, volatility, and determinant of the Sharia stock index during several events, such as Covid-19, global financial crisis, etc. Besides, I would like to compare them with the conventional stock index from G-7 countries.
If anyone is interested in this topic, especially those who have experience running the panel regression and volatility test model such as ARCH, GARCH, etc. Please let me know, and we can discuss further.

The Waqf (confined endowment) was one of the foundations of Islamic Renaissance that has led to a wide activity in scientific, architectural, and health-care movements. It has also resulted the establishment of several institutions which were integrated and vital for the community. These institutions have worked on improvising solutions to new problems. Early Muslims have been racing to establish their own waqf emphasizing the peculiarity of the different goals of each one. This research aims to study the waqf of Abdul Basit ibn Khalil the Damascene (790-857 AH / 1388 - 1450 AD) the Chief-inspector of the Egyptian armies. And I have included in the annexes two of these waqfs.

Was the Lord previous to his son, or was his son before him,?
If you say: His father was previously . We told you: You have abolished the theory of the three universes . This means that the son did not manage the affairs of the universe with his father !!!
You have to answer the question: When did the father decide to have a child? And who ran the universe before he had his son?
If you say: the son was previously on his father . We told you: how to be the former son to his father ?!
If you say: they are together forever, we said to you: Who decided to make the father father?!!Who made the son a son?!And how to be a father and son without being one of them before the other ?!

Conference Paper "A Somali girl is Muslim and does not have premarital sex. I...
First of all I couldn't access this article to comment further even though I tried in different ways but failed but finally I wrote of the co-authors and now waiting for her feedback. Going through the very short abstract that the authors displayed I could see one of the major themes extracted from their transcribed collected data was, "(1) perceived barriers to uptake of preventive measures: distrust of the Dutch health care system...". My question is why there is distrust as we can experience in different setting for example recently there were rejection of Polio vaccination campaign in Minnesota Somali community because they were afraid ( or thinking)of getting 'Autism' from Polio vaccination and if I am not mistaken this happened for the first time since Somali migrated to Minn. and it is the most Somali populated cities in whole America. Why there is distrust in such community where there are educated and skilled people in those areas? How an individual and later a whole community can perceive and share similar conception and thoughts against specified immunization or Expanded Program for Immunizaation ( EPI)?Thanks

The fertility of Muslims, which was about 10 per cent higher than that of Hindus before independence, is now nearly 30 per cent higher than the Hindu rate, and the difference according to religion is larger than the difference between the forward and depressed Hindu castes and tribes. While the lower level of contraceptive use among Muslims is the most important factor responsible for the fertility differentials, the use of contraceptives has increased faster among the Muslims in recent times. What could be the possible reasons for the residual effect of religion on fertility and caste on fertility and causes for these disparities in social and economic conditions ?

Enemies take advantage of some violent behaviors of some Muslims as a result of their misunderstanding of religion and its principles, and its provisions, and the conditions that prepare for him and appointed him.

And to contribute to its development and the introduction of adequate lines.

Halal certification is becoming more and more important. In the literature, especially research on consumers is intensive. However, it is seen that the researches on the enterprises are limited.

Hi Beverly,
I have, off and on, had several run-ins with those who insist that "all the evils of the world" are caused by capitalism. I have tried to point out that capitalism in itself is not "unIslamic", and that a case can be made that it was in fact developed under Islam. Now people are saying that the fundamental problem is fiat money, and that this is responsible for everything (including plastic pollution)! They argue the relative merits of so-called precious metals compared with paper money, which they say has no intrinsic value. I argue that gold too has no intrinsic value - it has only the value that people ascribe to it at the time they choose to buy or sell it.
To cut a long story short, I have decided that I have to write a paper dealing with the way money developed under Islam. I need a sound and solid understanding about conventional monetary theory, and an equally solid understanding of current thinking about the Islamic systems. Is this something in which you are interested, or have looked at at all? Are you interested? Can you point me to any relevant papers?
Best wishes,
Jaafar
