Christian Leadership In An Age Of Identity Politics, Lloyd Wilkinson

Doctor of Ministry

This dissertation is an attempt to understand New Zealand Christian leadership in a time of divisive identity politics. Using epistemological mapping, the first part of the research begins by considering the effect postmodernism had on the self-understanding of both western society and the wider church. It then considers the impact of neo-economics on traditional political divisions and the shift towards empowering minority social groups. As these changes unfolded, the New Zealand church experienced a dramatic decline, creating significant challenges for its leadership. Through interviews and reflection on leadership writing over the last fifty years, the research maps the change in …

Maẓālim Between Politics And Justice Under The Mamluks, Menna Rashad

Theses and Dissertations

This thesis’s primary objective is to explore the place of maẓālim in the Mamluk state by identifying the extent to which this institution was politically utilized and used by rulers to assert their power in different ways. The second objective of this thesis is to study maẓālim in relation to other forms of justice: sharīʿah, siyāsah, and Yāsā. On the basis of this objective, …

Hawsh Al-Basha: The Royal Cemetery In Cairo, Mai Mohamed Kolkailah

Theses and Dissertations

This thesis focuses on Hawsh al-Basha, the royal cemetery near the mausoleum of Imam al-Shafi‘i, which is arguably one of the most intriguing architectural moments in Ottoman Cairo. Firstly, the historiography of Hawsh al-Basha is examined carefully in order to situate the mausoleum temporally and geographically. Secondly, for a critical rewriting of the historical narrative, this study systematically cross-references contemporary sources with nineteenth-century travel accounts, among other material evidence, to effectively reconstruct the complicated building chronology of Hawsh al-Basha and reassess when the mausoleum was built. Then, the study surveys the various categories of ornamentation employed at the royal cemetery, …

Seton Hall University Dissertations and Theses (ETDs)

In this study, academic freedom was defined by 17 foreign-born professors:12 Arab-born and five non-Arab professors from nine different higher education institutions, as the ability to express different ideas, research any topic, and publish the results without fear of intimidation. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to examine how foreign-born professors experienced academic freedom when teaching and writing about Middle East issues and how their views about the U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East influenced their experiences on the grounds of their foreignness (place of origin, race/ethnicity, and religion). Overall, participants reported positive experiences with academic freedom when teaching and writing …

A Papyrus Fragment Related To Ibn ʿAbd Rabbih’S Al-ʿIqd Al-Farīd*, Mark Muehlhaeusler

Faculty Journal Articles

This article presents an edition and a translation of a papyrus fragment from the Beinecke Library at Yale (P.CtYBR inv. 2598), together with a brief commentary. This literary fragment, containing two verses of poetry, is interesting because it provides an oriental source for a text until then known only through the famous Andalusian work of Ibn ʿAbd Rabbih, al-ʿIqd al-farīd; it also serves as an example of an informal mode of written transmission of Arabic poetry.

Workings Of Theocracy: The Historical Function And Modern Applicability Of Charitable Endowments, Nuh Elalaoui

Honors Program Theses

Historically, various systems and institutions across diverse civilizations have been established to meet the many needs that interweave the fabric of society. One, and perhaps the most significant of these institutions is the waqf/hubus system. Characterized by the designation of a property or revenue stream as mortmain and the investment of the usufruct for the benefit of (often predetermined) beneficiaries, this form of charitable endowment is hailed as a cornerstone of Islamic civilization. The objectives of this paper are threefold. Primarily, it examines the historical role of awqāf, with focus on their social and economic significance in two distinct Islamic …

The (Un)Sustainability Of Higher Education Institutions In Jordan, Sumaya Bint El Hassan, Kyle E. Cordova, Ghaith Rabadi, Wejdan Abu Elhaija

Engineering Management & Systems Engineering Faculty Publications

Higher education in Jordan has been tied closely to the state-building process in the century since the modern Hashemite state's foundation in 1921, with its explicit purpose being to educate and train high volumes of students who are competent and capable to serve as contributors to the state's development. Though this purpose has largely been successful to date, it is becoming increasingly clear that more is needed than simply issuing degrees. In an increasingly globalized world, it is necessary to educate those who can contribute to future research arenas and labor markets over which a single state has limited control. …

Arab American Women In Engineering: How Did Their Culture Influence Their Achievement?, Iktimal Bia Hamed

Master's Theses and Doctoral Dissertations

This body of research examined the Arab American culture and its impact on women who studied the male-dominated major of engineering.

The 10 female Arab American participants shared how they made it through and successfully completed their major in engineering. This study focused on engineering, since there has been little to no growth in women who major in this male-dominated subject.

Toward An Arabic Modernism: Politics, Poetics, And The Postcolonial, Alaa Taha

Electronic Theses and Dissertations, 2020-2023

This thesis explores modernism's temporality and location through the examination of Arabic modernism's occurrence. In this thesis, I question whether the authenticity of modernism derives from its temporality period or its literary content while concurrently investigating several poems by Lebanese authors Kahlil Gibran and Nadia Tuéni and Syrian poet Adonis. Additionally, I trace Arabic modernism's influence to the early 1900s-1910s to the conception of the Mahjar movement and the Pen League, an Arabic literary society consisting of Arabic immigrant writers. As I discern the political impact within Arabic writings, I explore political events, such as World War I and its …

Legal Translation In A Political Context: The Trick Of Choosing Between Alternatives In Translating Electoral Terms, Zakia Deeb

Abdou Filali-Ansary Occasional Paper Series

Legal electoral terminology is a specialist subject within the broader legal language discourse. When translating into Arabic, even basic electoral terms can be translated differently in different Arab countries for various reasons due to different sources of inspiration. Most legal electoral terms have a variety of alternative equivalents within the relevant linguistic field or semi-legal domain. This paper discusses such alternatives while presenting problems related to the existing resources in the field. Data collected from the 2012 election of members of the Libyan General National Congress are analysed to test the consistency in selecting from these alternatives. Furthermore, material presented …

Arab Media's Representation Of Arab-Israeli Normalization Agreements, Rylan L. Forester

Honors Theses

When, on August 13, 2020, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) announced it was normalizing relations with the state of Israel, few could have predicted the effects it would have. However, since the Emirati decision, three other Arab countries - Bahrain, Sudan, and Morocco - have reached agreements with Tel Aviv to normalize relations. Such events are a sharp divergence from the status quo and thus, this thesis examines, through the application of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) and analyzed through a constructivist framework, how three Arab media sources - Al-Jazeera, Al-Arabiya, and Al-Mayadeen - discuss and represent these normalization agreements. By …

In addition to mentioning some examples from the nineteenth century in the literature to illustrate how each of them used the concept of insanity.

How Palestinian Aid Organizations Adapt To The Possibility Of Further Annexation And Rights Abuses In The Wake Of "The Deal Of The Century", Nadia L. Wiggins

Capstone Collection

This research explores the question, “To what extent has the ‘Deal of the Century’ impacted Palestinian aid organizations, and how might it impact them in the future?” The significance of this question lies in the fact that the “Deal of the Century” claims to solve one of the longest and most complex conflicts, yet it has not been sufficiently analyzed from a Palestinian perspective nor a humanitarian perspective. Furthermore, by presenting scholarly critiques of the deal and aid worker’s concerns, my hope is that an American audience may be convinced of the complicity of our government in devising a failed …

الإعراب بين اللفظ والمعنى في القرآن الكريم عند القاضي البيضاوي ومحيي الدين شيخ زاده رحمه الله تعالى, Mahmoud Lagha

Al Jinan الجنان

هذا البحث ثمرة من ثمرات دراسة حاشية موسوعية في علم التفسير ، بدأتها بمقدمة ذكرت فيها أهمية مثل هذه الدراسات لجهود السابقين، ثم ذكرت موضوع البحث، ومنهجي في إعداد. وقد جاء هذا البحث على مطالب ثلاثة:

المطلب الأول : تعريف الإعرابوالمعنى واللفظ

المطلب الثاني : أثر الإيجاز بالحذف في اختلاف الإعراب بين اللفظ والمعنى . حيث كان غالب اعتماد الإعراب هنا على اللفظ ، مع التنبيه على المعنى والإشارة إليه بالتقدير

المطلب الثالث : أثر الاطناب في اختلاف الإعراب بين اللفظ والمعنى. حيث رجحت كفة المعنى على اللفظ في الإعراب غالباً ، وكان الوهم والفساد في اعتماده على مجرد اللفظ …

الأداة قد, Noemat Chaarani

Al Jinan الجنان

هدفت الدراسة إلى تفنيد حالات قد في اللغة العربية. وقد اعتمدت المنهج التحليلي حيث عمدت إلى تحليل أوجه استعمال "قد" في شتى الأوجه التالية:

• تأتي إسماً بمعنى حسب، نحو: قد زيد درهم، أي حسبه. وقدي درهم، بغير نون أي حسبي.
• تأتي إسم فعل بمعنى كفى أو يكفي، نحو: قدني درهم، أي يكفيني والياء مفعول به.
• تفيد التوقع مع المضارع، نحو: قد يقدم الغائب.
• تفيد التقليل نحو: قد أفلح من اتقى الله، فالفلاح محقق. وتقريب الماضي من الحال، كقولك قد قام فلان، إذا كان قيامه في زمن قريب منك.
• تفيد التكثير،، نحو: قد أشهد الغارة الشعواء...، يريد أنه يشهدها كثيراً لأن …

أسبقية العرب في علم الأصوات, Abdulmoneam Bchennaty

Al Jinan الجنان

علم الأصوات أو اللسانيات أو أي تسمية أخرى تؤدي نفس معنى علم هذا العلم لا يخرج عن كونه مسمى التجويد عند القراء واللغويين القدامى والمحدثين . ويعود تاريخ التفكير اللغوي والأدبي والعربي إلى ما قبل الاسلام، وقد تميّزالعصر الجاهلي بوجود الشعراء والفصحاء وكانت اللغة العربية قد وصلت إلى مرحلة من النضج والعذوبة والرقة والطلاقة وكان الشاعر الجاهلي - بقليل من النقد- يقوّم لسانه ويدرك خطأه، فيرتقي نظمه وأداؤه.

وعرّف القدماء الشعر بأنه " الكلام الموزون المقفى" فهم يرون الإنسجام الموسيقي " أي الصوتي" في توالي مقاطع الكلام وخضوعها إلى ترتيب خاص . فابتكر الخليل بن أحمد علم العروض الذي هو …

وقد تميزت اللغة العربية أنها فوق مستوى العام، فالعامةلا يصطنعونها في لغتهم، أما النص القرآني باعتباره نصا عربيا فكان أسلوبه إعجازا وتحديا لخاصة العرب،، واللغة العربية المشتركة لا تنتمي صفاتها إلى بيئة محلية بعينها، فهي ليست لغة قبيلة واحدة، بل هي مزيج من لهجات فصحاء العرب. …

The Functions And Uses Of The Marker “Bita:ʕ” In Egyptian Arabic: A Corpus Analysis: Discourse And Vagueness Functions, Asmaa Taha

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Discourse markers are used considerably in Egyptian colloquial Arabic, yet few studies examine them in colloquial Arabic. A mixed-method research design adopting a descriptive corpus-based approach is used to better understand the communicative discourse and vagueness functions of the words bita:ʕ, bita:ʕa, and bitu:ʕ in Egyptian Arabic discourse. This study also highlights the collocational behavior of bita:ʕ, bita:ʕa, and bitu:ʕ as well as their colligation patterns. A correlation is found between colligation patterns of the markers bita:ʕ and its variants and particular discourse and vagueness functions in context. Additionally, the study investigates the morphosyntactic phenomenon in which bita:ʕ has …
