الهدايات القرآنية المتعلقة بالأخلاق والآداب عند الإمام السعدي
يتناول البحث الهدايات القرآنية المتعلقة بالأخلاق والآداب الإسلامية التي استنبطها السعدي في تفسيره. فالأخلاق والآداب هي هيئة راسخة في النفس، يصدر عنها العديد من الأفعال بشكل سهل وميسر، دون الحاجة للتروي أو التفكير، فمن الممكن أن يصدر عن هذه الهيئة أفعال مذمومة أو محمودة. وللحديث عن هذا البحث سلك الباحث المنهج الاستقرائي عند تتبع أقوال الشيخ السعدي وجمع الموضوعات المتعلقة بعنوان البحث، ثم المنهج التحليلي بتحليل وبيان مراد السعدي في الهدايات القرآنية المتعلقة بالأخلاق المحمودة والمذمومة. وقد توصل الباحث إلى أهم النتائج منها : أن الهدايات القرآنية هي: "الإرشادات الظاهرة والخفية الدالة عليها الآيات القرآنية بطرق صحيحة". وأنه تعتبر الأخلاق الإسلامية من سمات المؤمنين الصالحين، حيث تساعدهم على تجنب الوقوع في العيب، واللوم، والنقد، ولا تجعل صاحبها يميل إلى الخطيئة أو الإجرام، لأنّ الأخلاق تُعتبر من الهدي النبوي والوحي الإلهي، وهي خُلق الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم قال الله سبحانه وتعالى: ﴿وَإِنَّكَ لَعَلَى خُلُقٍ عَظِيمٍ. وقد حث النبي الله على الأخلاق والآداب الحسنة فقال: (إِنَّ مِن أحبكم إلي وأقربكم مني مجلسا يوم القيامة أحاسنكم أخلاقا ، وإِنَّ مِن أبغضكُم إِليَّ وأبعدكم مني يوم القيامة الثرثارون والمتشدقون والمتفيهقون، قالوا: يا رسول الله، قد علمنا الثرثارين والمتشدقين فما المتفيهقون؟ قال: المتكبرون)

أسباب الانحرافات الدعوية في بلاد يوربا : عرض وحلول (Translated: Causes of Da'wah Deviations in Yorubaland: Presentation and Solutions)
The abstract explains that the missionary movement (Da'wah) in Yorubaland began with the arrival of Malian traders during the reign of Sultan Mansa Musa, adhering to divine instructions which achieved immense success . However, some contemporary preachers in the region have deviated from the straight path outlined by Islam, engaging in insults, defamation, and creating doubts among people, which stripped the Da'wah of its core guidance purpose . This article studies the causes behind this shift using an inductive methodology while proposing definitive solutions . The study finds that factors like a disregard for profound knowledge, a lack of deep research before addressing issues, and relying strictly on isolated interpretations of the Qur'an contribute to these deviations . It recommends that preachers thoroughly equip themselves with authentic knowledge and fear Allah so that their call aligns with what Allah and His Messenger ordained
علم العلل وأهميته وتطبيقاته عند الإمام الدارقطني في السنن (The Science of Elal, its Importance, and its Applications according to Imam Al-Daraqutni in the Sunan)
إن علم العلل له منزلة كبيرة في علوم الحديث، فهو من أشرف العلوم المتعلقة بنقد الحديث، وأدقها مسلكاً، وأقلها سالكا، وإن له دورا كبيرا في تمييز الصحيح من الضعيف، ولم يتصدر لهذا الفن إلا الجهابذة من أئمة الحديث، فتكلموا في مسائله وكتبوا في أحكامه ونقدوا المتون والأسانيد. فبما أن هذا العلم قد بدأ يخفى أثره في الأمة في هذه الأزمان كان من الأهمية بمكان كتابة بحوث أكاديمية في سبر أهمية هذا العلم الذي كثرت فوائده، وإن كان قد نشرت بحوث كثيرة حول علم العلل إلا أن هناك ثلمة لم تسد ببحث، والبحث فيها له أهمية كبيرة، ألا وهي علم العلل وأهميته وتطبيقاته عند الإمام الدارقطني في السنن ويهدف البحث إلى معرفة مكانة علم العلل وأهميته. وقد جمع هذا البحث بياناته عن طريق البحث الاستقرائي والمنهج الوصفي والتحليلي حسب ما تقتضيه متطلبات مباحثه. (Translation Summary: The science of Elal holds a significant position in Hadith sciences as it distinguishes the authentic from the weak. This study aims to highlight its importance and applications specifically under Imam Al-Daraqutni in his Sunan, utilizing inductive, descriptive, and analytical research methodologies.)
مراعاة مشاعر الصغار في السنة النبوية: دراسة موضوعية
جاء هذا البحث لمناقشة أحاديث رعاية مشاعر الصغار في السنة النبوية المطهرة، ويهدف إلى التعريف برعاية المشاعر، وبيان رعاية السنة لقيمة مراعاة مشاعر الصغار خصوصا من خلال السنة القولية والفعلية على مستوى أقارب النبي صلى الله عيله وسلم وعموم الصحابة، كما هدف البحث إلى الكشف عن آثار رعاية مشاعر الصغار، واقتضى ذلك أن يكون المنهج استقرائيا وصفيا، وبرزت أهمية البحث في إبراز جانب مهم من تعامل النبي مع فئات المجتمع، خاصة مع كثرة الثغرات والتوترات والخلافات في المجتمع اليوم وإهمال فئة الصغار لدى البعض، ويعمل البحث على تحرير : هل السنة اعتنت برعاية مشاعر الصغار على وجه الخصوص ؟ وهل لهذه الرعاية أثر على الصغار والمجتمع؟ فجاء هذا البحث دراسة حديثية موضوعية حول: "مراعاة مشاعر الصغار في السنة النبوية"، لنصل إلى أن السنة النبوية رعت مشاعر الصغار بالأقوال من السلام عليهم، وكلمات التودد والمحبة ومواساتهم في الأحزان، وتشجيعهم على المواهب. وأن السنة رعت مشاعر الصغار أيضا بالأفعال من تقبيلهم، وضمهم، والمسح على رؤوسهم. كما أن هذه الرعاية البديعة لها ثمارها اليانعة على الصغار نفسيا وتربويا واجتماعيا وصحيا وأمنيا، وعلى المجتمع تناغما وحضورا وعطاء وحبا وبذل This research aims to discuss the hadiths concerning the nurturing of the emotions of young children in the Sanctified Prophetic narrations. It seeks to define emotional care and highlight the Sunnah's emphasis on the value of considering the feelings of children, especially through both verbal and practical examples set by the Prophet- May Allah extol his messenger in the highest company of angels and grant him peace and security-, among his relatives, and companions. Additionally, the research seeks to reveal the effects of nurturing children's feelings, necessitating an inductive and descriptive methodology. The significance of the research lies in shedding light on an essential aspect of the Prophet's interactions with various segments of society, especially amidst the prevalent shortcomings, tensions, and conflicts in today's society. The research endeavors to address whether the Sunnah specifically attended to nurturing the feelings of young children, and whether this nurturing had an impact on both children and society. Thus, this research emerged as an objective hadith- based study titled "Nurturing Children's Emotions in the Prophetic Narrations", aiming to demonstrate that the Prophetic Narrations indeed nurtured the feelings of children through verbal expressions of peace (Saying Salam), words of affection and love, consoling them in times of sorrow, and encouraging their talents. Moreover, the Sunnah also nurtured the feelings of young children through actions such as kissing them, embracing them, and gently caressing their heads. This exquisite nurturing bears fruitful outcomes on children psychologically, educationally, socially, physically, and in terms of security, as well as contributing to harmony, presence, generosity, love, and sacrifice within society.
علاقة كتاب "معاني القرآن" للفراء بالدراسة النقدية (The Relationship of Al-Farra's Book "The Meanings of the Qur'an" with Critical Study)
إن كتاب "معاني القرآن لأبي زكرياء يحيى بن زياد الفراء (المتوفى سنة 207هـ) من أهم وأصل كتب الدراسات القرآنية من النواحي النحوية واللغوية والقراءات، جمع فيه الفراء لغات العرب في ألفاظ القرآن الكريم والقراءات الواردة فيها، ويبث آراءه ونظراته في اللغة والقراءة مما أدى إلى اعتباره ناقدا لغويا. وتقوم هذه المقالة على تناول ظاهرة النقد اللغوي والنحوي عنده في كتابه هذا، ذلك لأن النقد عنده ينم عن عقلية فذة وعلم جم وحسن تذوق للنصوص القرآنية وله آراء وتعليلات لظواهر لغوية ونحوية ومواقف من القراءات القرآنية ومن آراء علماء اللغة. واستخدم الباحث المنهج الوصفي التحليلي، وتوصل للعديد من النتائج التي أوردها في الخاتمة منها، أن الفراء كان ناقدا لغويا استعمل أدوات النقد بصورتها المثلى، وأن جهوده أضافت تطورا جوهريا في الدراسات النقدية عموما والدراسات القرآنية خصوصا. The book "The Meanings of the Qur'an" by Abu Zakaria Yahya bin Ziyad Al-Farra (d. 207) is one of the most important and original books of Quranic studies from the grammatical, linguistic and recitation aspects. In it, Al-Farra collected the languages of Arab in the words of the Holy Qur'an and its readings contained therein, and featured his opinions and views on language and reading (of the Holy Qur'an), which led to him being considered a linguistic critic. This article is based on discussing the phenomenon of his linguistic and grammatical criticism in this book, because his criticism reflects a unique mentality, great knowledge, and good taste for Qur'anic texts, and he has opinions and explanations for linguistic and grammatical phenomena and positions on Qur'anic readings and the opinions of linguists. The researcher used descriptive analytical method, and reached to many results which he outlined in the conclusion, among which Al-Farra was a linguistic critic who used tools of criticism in their optimal form, and that his efforts added a fundamental development to linguistic criticism studies in general and Qur'anic studies in particular.

اختلف مناهج العلماء في تفسير القرآن الكريم قديما وحديثا، فمنهم من قبل العلماء تفسيرهم، ومنهم من رد تفسيره لبعده عن المصادر التلقى والاستدلال كل البعد لاستعماله بالرأي المحض المذموم. فهذا البحث يهدف إلى إبراز جهد عالم من العلماء الذي عاش في القرن الثاني عشر الهجري في بلاد نيجيريا، في بيان الآيات القرآنية من مصدر أصلي أساسي، وهو سنة المصطفى .. وهذا يدل على بقاء العلماء الربانيين في العصور المتأخرة الثابتين على المنهج السليم في بيان القرآن الكريم. ومن أهمية هذا البحث أنه يوقف الباحث على المنهج المتبع من هذا العالم في تناول تفسير القرآن بالسنة. ومن النتائج التي توصلت إليها هذه الدراسة أن علماء نيجيريا ممن أسهموا في العلوم الإسلامية ونشرها بين الناس وأنهم اعتنوا بالقرآن الكريم كمصدر أولى للشريعة الإسلامية، وأنهم على سنة المصطفى صلى الله عليه وسلم مستمسكين. وقد اتبع الباحث المنهج الوصفي الاستقرائي في جمع المادة العلمية في هذا البحث.

INTRODUCING THE ISLAMIC CRIME PREVENTION FRAMEWORK (ICPF): A THEORETICAL STUDY
Crime, in every human society, is an unavoidable societal phenomenon that necessitates efficient crime prevention interventions based on different considerations, needs and acceptable frameworks. Islamically, any proposed interventions to curb crimes must align with the embedded sociological values and civilization in the Qur'an and the Sunnah. This theoretical study conceptualizes a shari'ah-compliant framework tagged the Islamic Crime Prevention Framework (ICPF) using the classical research method at-tatabbu wa al-istiqrā, a research equivalent to grounded theory. The ICPF is a soft-hard model that employing the non-punitive and punitive measures to curb noticeable crimes. This paper, being theoretical and introductory, represents a basis to spark scholarly discussions within the relevant research community. Similarly, the model is theoretically positioned as a valuable tool to curbing crimes at the pre-committal and post-committal stages at all levels of a Muslim social setting

Management of Muslim Public Funds in Yorubaland Nigeria for Economic Development: Lessons from Malaysia
Management of Islamic Public Funds in any Muslim society has become a central debate in the economic development forum. This is because most of the Muslim countries are lagging behind in economic development, in spite of numerous channels of revenue generation . Yorubaland, in southwestern Nigeria, is a society where more than 30 million of the Population of Nigeria live . Although resource-rich, the region is dealing with extreme poverty and high youth unemployment rates . While the practice of waqf contribution has been popular in Africa in the past, the management of Islamic public funds is yet to be well exploited in driving the economic development of Muslims . Studies have provided evidence of the positive contribution that Islamic public funds play in wealth creation and poverty alleviation in Malaysia . Waqf institutions in Malaysia have proven that such institutions can complement public expenditure and allow government participation in the economy with public funds raised according to Islamic principles . This paper aims to address how Muslims in Yorubaland, the religiously plural south-western region of Nigeria, have been managing Islamic funds such as sadaqah, zakat and waqf . The lack of popularity in the use of Islamic public funds has motivated this paper to examine and inevitably link past experiences of Muslim philanthropies in the region, with the present situation relating to the collection and distribution of Islamic public funds . Islam has provided several corrective measures for poverty alleviation, in the form of mandatory (zakah) and voluntary contributions (sadaqah and waqf) to foster wealth transfer (distribution) and reduce inequality . Islamic social finance, following the concepts of zakat, waqf and sadaqah, can ensure a continuous flow of public funds, that can enhance the standards of people living under the poverty line and ensure economic development in Muslim countries. Islamic principles of poverty alleviation are based on the Islamic views on belief in Allah, the Almighty and social justice . In addition, the economic significance of the mosque institution in Malaysia provides good insights into the importance and difference in investment activities of mosques in different states . Similarly, mosques play a valuable role as an Islamic educational institute in South Asia, which relies on the voluntary donations of Muslims, in the form of sadaqah . Therefore, this paper derives lessons from Malaysian approaches to creating Islamic funds management criteria through the establishment of Zakat houses, waqf institutions and Tabung masjid . This paper also argues that, in spite of the fact that there could be some disparities in terms of different political scenarios in both countries; the Malaysian evidence could enable Yorubaland to find effective poverty alleviation mechanisms built on the integrated framework of zakah, waqf and tabung masjid despite the lack of government support . Consequently, the paper suggests some practical approaches which Yorubaland Muslims can use to manage their religious public funds in order to actualize economic development of the Muslims in general and their youth in particular .
Based on the provided document, the extracted details are as follows
The evil practices of magic and fortunetelling had been in existence in Hausaland before and after the advent of Islam in the area . People consulted magicians and soothsayers for medication or to achieve life's aspirations . The Sokoto Jihad leaders contributed tremendously in combating the spread of these evil acts as they are against the teachings of Qur'an and Sunnah . This study aims to examine the relevance and impact of the jihadists' contributions in that direction on the contemporary Muslims in North-Western Nigeria . Being a qualitative research applied, relevant books, journals, conference papers, internet and social media are consulted to source information . The findings of the study reveal that the jihad contributions against magic and fortunetelling influenced contemporary scholars positively and produced works on the negative effect of the two evils as well as guidance towards the spiritual medication of Islam . Finally, the study recommends some measures that could at least minimize the spread of evil practices of magicians and fortunetellers in this contemporary period .
ASSESSING THE APPROACH OF MUSLIM SCHOLARS TOWARDS POLITICS IN ANΚΡΑ LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA
Islam is the religion of Almighty Allah which was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad SAW to be transmitted to all humanities to establish harmonious relationships between humans and their God, as well as human relationships with one another . It is against this backdrop that this research terns to assess the participation of Muslims and Islamic scholars in politics in Ankpa Local Government Area of Kogi State . The study ascertains that politics is a part of Islam and Islam is part of politics, hence Muslims should vigorously participate to attract the development of religion in the political realm . The study adopts the interview approach of the qualitative research methodology by interviewing some notable scholars in the Ankpa and its environs . The results of the study reveal that if Muslims and Muslim scholars fail to participate in politics they will be pushed to the back seat and that will affect the development of Islam . To this end, Emile Durkhiem's Functionalism theory was adopted to explain why Muslims cannot separate Islam and politics . The study therefore concludes that politics is the process of forming and distributing power in society and thus cannot be separated from Muslims and Islam respectively . The paper thus recommends that Muslim Scholars and Muslims should display positive positions towards participation in the political activities of their domain, not only by encouraging youths to do it but they should display also a positive role by registering with any political organization of their choice and aspiring for political powers in their lands, states and the nation
An investigation of the Islamic philosophical construct from Jahiliyyah to Islamic Worldview
In solving Islamic-related problems, some Muslims hold to the belief that conventional ideas embedded in un-Islamic worldviews and philosophical constructs can be used as long as they are not contrary to Islamic teachings . Such a stance has become a sort of philosophical underpinning in Islamic education . One main justification given was the acceptance and adoption of the Jahiliyyah (ignorant) practices by Prophet Muhammad (SAW) himself during his lifetime . But the question is, what was the nature of these Jahiliyyah-originated practices adopted and practiced by Rasulullah SAW? Are they adopted and practiced in full without any changes or were they revamped hence the difference? This paper attempts to seek the answer through two main approaches . Firstly, to identify the Jahiliyyah practices that were allegedly accepted and practiced in Islam . Secondly, to analyze the worldview of these Jahiliyyah-originated practices within an Islamic philosophical construct . The analysis is based on selected practices of the Jahiliyyah that have been adopted by Rasulullah SAW . This historiography study concludes that the similarities of these practices if any, even though seem to be similar to those practiced by the Jahiliyyah, only evolved around their names and terms, while the structures and their roots have been revamped by Rasulullah (SAW) . The concept of practices in Islam too is vastly different from the Jahiliyyah practices as they have been formed by an Islamic worldview that includes the elements of akidah, ibadah and akhlaq . The revelations received by Rasulullah (SAW) themselves are proofs that Islam is absolutely free from Jahiliyyah practices . The arguments that are used by those who advocate the usage of conventional ideas to solve the problems that are related to Islam therefore are incorrect . When their justifications are refuted, then their claims inevitably have to be similarly denied
Environmental Conservation: An Instrument for Achieving Sustainable Development Goals in Nigeria Amidst Security and COVID-19 Challenges in Nigeria: Islamic Perspective
The document states that the environmental crisis is a serious global problem that threatens Nigeria and future generations' right to a healthy environment .

Using qualitative analysis, the study discusses environmental conservation as a tool for achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) amidst security and COVID-19 challenges . It recommends that the government integrate religious values into environmental policy .
NIGERIA'S EXTERNAL AND DOMESTIC DEBT SERVICING OBLIGATIONS [1960-2023): THE ISLAMIC PANACEA FOR DEBT SUSTAINABILITY
Globally, the debt service capacity of debtor nations is a matter of broad concern as it threatens the global economic system. Nigeria uses a high proportion of foreign exchange earnings to service debts while seeking more loans for internal obligations. This study examines Nigeria’s debt servicing from 1960–2023, finding that both concessional and market-rate loans stifle sustainability. The study recommends that Nigeria desist from usurious practices (Riba) and adopt Islamic debt management to guarantee economic security for the masses .

CULTURAL COMPETENCE IN THE CARE FOR PATIENTS OF DIVERSE RELIGIOUS TRADITIONS: ISLAM A WAY OF LIFE FOR MUSLIMS
Religion is a critical component of many patients' cultural and value systems, particularly during advanced illness and at the end of life . Despite this, religious needs are often minimally addressed due to a lack of spiritual care knowledge among healthcare professionals . This paper aims to provide insight into the general background of Muslim patients to improve culturally competent care . Using an analytical methodology based on secondary documents and literature surveys, the article explores key areas such as prayer conditions, medical treatment roles, religious authority, modesty, family involvement in decision-making, and pain management . The research highlights the diversity of opinions among Islamic scholars and patients regarding healthcare and religious beliefs .

Maliki jurisprudence is one of the schools of thought that has achieved wide distribution in West Africa and has been accepted in Northern Nigeria for hundreds of years, with its texts being taught in many formal and traditional educational settings, including the book Al-Muqaddimah al-Izziyyah lil-Jama'ah al-Azhariyyah . Although this book contains many jurisprudential maxims (qawa'id fighiyya) upon which the author built his rulings, these maxims often remain hidden to many students and researchers; therefore, the authors employed inductive and analytical methods to extract and highlight two specific maxims to demonstrate their presence and link them to the jurisprudential rulings within the text .
