Vatican releases new instruction on authenticating, protecting relics

VATICAN CITY (CNS) — Only relics that have been certified as authentic can be exposed for veneration by the faithful, said a new Vatican instruction.
Published Dec. 16 in Italian by the Congregation for Saints' Causes, the instruction clarifies and details the canonical procedures to be followed by local bishops in an effort to verify the authenticity of relics and the mortal remains of saints and blesseds, as well as better guarantee a relic's preservation, approve and track its movements, and promote its veneration.
The instruction replaces the appendix, "Canonical Recognition of the Mortal Remains of the Servant of God," included with "Sanctorum Mater," the congregation's "Instruction for Conducting Diocesan or Eparchal Inquiries in the Causes of Saints," released in 2007.
The new instruction outlined the specific procedures and personnel necessary for the canonical recognition of the authenticity of the relics or remains of a saint or anyone on the path to sainthood. It also specified that any action taken regarding the relics or remains must also conform with local government laws and have the consent of the saints' congregation and the person recognized as the deceased's "heir."
In the case of an upcoming canonization or beatification, some small pieces or fragments already separated from the body can be removed and later given to the postulator or vice postulator for placement in a properly sealed reliquary, the instruction said.
But "the dismemberment of the body is not allowed" unless the bishop has obtained permission from the saints' congregation, it said.
The sale or trade of relics remains "absolutely prohibited" as well as exposing them in "profane" or unauthorized locations, it said.
Some of the rules also include:
— Rigorously avoiding any sign of veneration for the remains of a servant of God or venerable before beatification.
— Obtaining written consent from the congregation and every bishop or proprietor that would be involved in the moving of, in transferring the ownership of, or in the pilgrimage of any relics and mortal remains of the saints and blesseds.
— Getting the consent of the saints' congregation, the relevant patriarch and his permanent synod for the alienation or transfer of ownership of relics and precious icons of the Eastern churches.

Mike Skinner breaks his own record at Goodwood Festival of Speed
29 Jun Mike Skinner breaks his own record at Goodwood Festival of Speed
1995 NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Champion Named "Driver of the Day" for the
WEST SUSSEX, England (June 29, 2015) – Former NASCAR Camping World Truck Series champion Mike Skinner was back to his winning ways on Sunday as he broke his own record time for the NASCAR class of competition at the iconic Goodwood Festival of Speed. After damaging his primary truck on Saturday afternoon, Skinner entered the final round of competition driving the 10th Toyota Tundra racecar ever built. He paced the race against the clock for the NASCAR division to beat the record time he set in 2014 by more than half-a-second and was identified as the "Driver Of The Day" at the 2015 Goodwood Festival of Speed, making for a storybook ending for the American NASCAR driver on his birthday.
"I love participating in the Goodwood Festival of Speed," Skinner said. "To set the record-time for the second year in a row is very special for us. We knew we had a bulls-eye on our back this year, so to be able to come back and still come out on top means a lot to our group. We couldn't do this without the support of great partners like Textron Aviation, Cessna, Beechcraft, Remington and Toyota, and I'm happy that we were able to represent them in victory lane."
Participating in his fifth Goodwood Festival of Speed event, Skinner had to overcome adversity throughout the weekend en route to his record setting run. Skinner was originally slated to compete in the No. 5 Cessna / Remington Toyota Tundra, but that truck sustained competition-ending damage when it made contact with the chicane during Skinner's Saturday morning practice run. As a result, Skinner's teammate and business partner, Andrew Franzone handed over the wheel of his historic Toyota Tundra entry to enable Skinner to make a timed-run in the final round of competition on Sunday afternoon.
Climbing back in the truck he nicknamed "Old Faithful," Skinner recorded a 50.22-second lap to improve his 2014 record time by more than half-a-second. In a tight competition, Skinner's small team, composed of Chris Paulsen of C&R Racing, and Jamie and Dustin Skinner of Racecar Solutions, brought home a 0.05-second win against some of the most successful teams in NASCAR. The effort earned Skinner the "Driver Of The Day" title for the first time in his Goodwood career.
The victory was made possible through joint partnerships with Textron Aviation, Cessna, Beechcraft, Remington, Venus Manhattan / Los Angeles Galleries, Sentinel Real Estate Corporation, Forbes Private Capital Group, Maui Jim, Justin Boots, Charlie 1 Horse Hat Company, WIX Filters, C&R Racing and Racecar Solutions.
"I can't thank Andrew Franzone enough for backing our effort as our team owner," Skinner said. "He was doing a great job driving our historic Toyota Tundra in the hill climb. However, when things went awry with our primary truck, he graciously stepped aside to let me behind the wheel. The weekend didn't exactly go as planned, but it certainly made for a great story, and made our second win at Goodwood that much more special."
Hosted by Lord March at the Goodwood Estate in West Sussex, England, the 22nd annual event featured every kind of car imaginable from the 1800s through today and attracted some of the most accomplished drivers in motorsports.
"Lord March throws the best party I've ever been to in my life," Skinner said. "He's a class act. He opens his home to all of us for this great event, to compete and have a good time, and look at so much beautiful mechanical art. I'm already looking forward to the 2016 Goodwood Festival of Speed."

After watching the recent UFC with several friends (who didn't spill wine this time), I came to the conclusion my brown sofa was getting lonely. Sure it has a rattan to it's left but that's like putting a cat and a dog together... sure they can get along over time but there is an unstated yet understood resentment by the rattan. I have been thinking about getting a loveseat (still don't understand why they named it that unless you have to be "in love" to sit that close together) but knew I wasn't going to 1) find one that matches the sofa 2) find money under my pillow to replace both with something new and 3) find something as comfortable as the sofa. So I have had it in my mind to get something for awhile. I've been keeping my eye on the furniture section on Craigslist for one and on Saturday... it pops up. I didn't catch it until Sunday morning and I sent off an email. I find out that 2 other people plan to pick it up and she will sell it to the first one there when she got home from work on Monday at 5:30pm. I told her that I'll be waiting there for her. hahaha And that I did. I took a break from the newsletter, waited there, paid her, put it on my Rodeo by myself and set it up in the house where it is in the picture. Then, I got back to work. Sure it isn't the same color as the other one but it's as soft, fits the earth-tone motif and only cost $25. hahaha Btw, if you look closely you can see my collection of remote controls and a bowl of jellybeans.
I usually don't sweat the whole "matching" thing. With the exception of the couch all else is a hand me down. 1980's love seat (almost a plaid in earth tones), a blue lazyboy, and my big brown couch. There are some sweet aspects to being single. The biggest is that no one really expects too much from you in the furniture department.
It looks soft, I wanna touch it. Uh ok I prolly could have phrased that better.
Even after I got married my living room furniture was hand me downs. When I moved from my last apt, I dumped my bedroom set and took my grandma's old bedroom dressers, they are solid heavy pieces cira 1940s at least.
I had hand me downs pretty much all my life. When my mom left to live with her boyfriend, I remodeled the whole house. Well, pretty much. I bought all new furniture, huge mirrors for the wall, and the most I spent was $800 on my son's bed. That was jackass move!
Anyhow, I like to match. I guess I got pretty "picky" so to speak. I do however love a bachelor pad. They're too cute.
I love my furniture, but I'm a Gemini and get tired of things pretty fast. I'm ready for something new. I need to sell mine.
I have had so much success with furniture on craigslist. It's nothing short of amazing the amount of great furniture you can get that way for a cheap price. It sounds and looks comfy. The perfect makeout pad!
Loveseat? Hmmmm have you broken it in yet Mart? Long live the jellybeans!
After readin this I took stock of my furniture. The only things which aren't handed down or "yard sale" goods are the boys bedroom suit (costs more than all the other furniture combined), my washer/dryer, and my computer. And somehow my home is still too full of crap..lol.
I'm with Jenn on this one, bachelor pads are so cute!
DG - No, no breaking it in yet. But then again, if I did would you want to know for the next time you sit there? Gotta love the jellybeans.
Lily - It's more fun to touch when it's not soft hahaha. Gotta love antiques... love that tv show.
Jenn - Damn, $800 on his bed? I'm sure he would have rather had half of that in Nintendo games.
Vavoom - I also picked up a TV on there awhile ago. But just gotta look at it pretty good before buying. $100 for a 27" TV that was supposedly 3 years old. The label on the back of the TV says 1997 UL listing. DHOH!
Teri - Of course you are still loved. I'm sure I'll get the stain out sometime but it's kinda nice to have something to remember ya by when I'm in the living room.
Miss H - Gotta love yard sales. I'm a garage sale whore. Lucky that I work on weekends and most are over by the time I get off work.
RT - Nothing is wrong with being picky and matching things. B) I'm just happy to have things that work like they should. Btw, good to see you back. We were worried.
LOL! I didn't say anything about the pieces "matching". I find more perfection in the random... If that makes sense.

About the EXIT extremism conference
EXIT organizations are not acting in isolation. They can be part of a multi-agency system that is being coordinated by a third party. In setting up multi-agency partnerships it is crucial to have a clear idea of the shared objective and knowing each other's role and interest in achieving it. This conference series wants to share international expertise in setting up such multi-agency structures and strive for structural quality standards. We welcome all interested security and social partners that are willing to combat radicalisation & polarisation.

From extremist to democratic citizen. How interventions can support extremists disengage and potentially deradicalise
What can be done to support a motivated person in leaving an extremist group and (re)integrate him into a democratic society? How do individuals develop an extremist identity and why it is so hard to leave an extremist life behind? Tina Christensen's lecture is based on research projects investigating engagement in and disengagement from extremist groups. Based on interviews of former extremists and terrorists, her presentation will illustrate how being an extremist involves participation in social environments which promote violence and a black and white thinking. Which issues do former extremists - across different religious and political oriented groups - struggle with after participation?
My Extreme Journey and Transition to Victoire
My own journey has led me to think deeply in how to counter and tackle this ideology, which has taken away many young people around the world. Especially those who are involved in or about to be groomed in to any type of violence and extremism. Drawing from my life experiences, my presentation will explore the factors of similarities and ways of ground operating from the group prospective. As well as, ideological pull factors around young people searching for normality in the current society, it will also explore how young people search for power and status, relating to Dar Ul Harb/ Land of war. It will conclude with an alternate solution, looking at how to deconstruct the red zone area and work towards a transitional road map strategy.

Exit and rehabilitation of former extremists: Core issues
Deradicalisation has become a core element in policies to counter violent extremism in many countries. However, these interventions vary enormously along a number of dimensions. This presentation will try to describe and discuss thisvariation in a systematic way in order to learn from previous achievements and mistakes, and understand better the pros and cons of different models.

Deradicalisation in Flanders
Flanders has no central exit-organisation or de-radicalisation-centre. However, various initiatives do set up individual trajectories, designed to facilitate individual defection from violent extremist organisations. Some of these trajectories are organised by local authorities and aim to reintegrate individuals into society through multidisciplinary counselling. Others are set up by private initiatives. And lastly there are individual programs for (former) detainees. Coordination and monitoring of quality standards is dispersed over several policy domains and levels. In this contribution, Lore Colaert introduces us into the complex architecture of de-radicalisation in Flanders.
The securitization of the everything and why that impacts basic human rights
In the aftermath of 9-11 the response mechanisms to political violence have mainly gone in one direction. Fifteen million US dollar per hour have been spent since that gruesome day in 2001, on military means to combat terrorism. The state responds to the threat by securing the state. This impacts all domains of our daily lives. From freedom of movement via physical and political space to express opinions to the freedom of expression and the right to privacy. The state increasingly enters those spaces and securitizes the way it looks at society and citizens. The assumption being that this response mechanism will improve state security and hopefully also the security of the people. This may proof the wrong assumption. The measures may proof counter productive and not only change the way we live and society functions but it may also fundamentally change the relation between the state and the citizen. A paradigm is at stake. The paradigm of the rule of law and democracy in which the rights of the citizens are guaranteed trough the notion of respect for fundamental human rights. A paradigm that we have set out to defend trough counter terrorism may get lost because of the very same counter terrorism measures.
A way out from violent extremism
This session will look at two decades of experiences from Exit Sweden as well as the lessons learnt from the European Commission's practitioner network RAN on interventions with individuals in VE environments. What are the challenges and successes in the work of supporting individuals to re-integrate to society, can formers be involved and what are the minimum requirements in Exit work? Robert Örell is the director at Exit Sweden, headed by the NGO Fryshuset. He has over fourteen years of experience on work with disengagement from political extremism and criminal gangs, social work with supporting victims of crime, parental support, networking and management. He is adviser on the work of setting up Exit organisations in several countries, as well as participated in- and worked with several EU projects. Since 2012 Robert is a member of the steering committee of the European Commission's RAN (Radicalization Awareness Network) where he co-chairs the working group RAN Exit. Since 2016 Robert is also part of the expert pool at the RAN Center of Excellence. He works together with the Swedish National Coordinators office to set up a national RAN network for practitioners. During 2014 he supervised the work at the family support hotline project Sy.Realize concerning Foreign Fighters. Robert has studied social pedagogy, has completed a basic psychotherapy training and has taken a certificate in Terrorism Studies at the University of St. Andrews.

In recent years new, studies have shown how vital vitamin supplements are in generating healthy nerve cells. Millions of people suffer with a horrible disease called neuropathy. Neuropathy can develop in most anyone. The two main causes for neuropathy would be diabetes or alcohol abuse. With either of the two causes, the symptoms can be the same painful and crippling. Neuropathy affects a person's ability to walk, touch and feel things. With an inability to feel objects and uneven terrain appropriately, the patient suffering with neuropathy is more prone to injuring his or herself.
Due to severe and consistent amount of pain felt with neuropathy, doctors all across the globe have committed their life to helping develop new and innovative ways to help neuropathy patients find comfort and relief. Though there are several professional's who have dedicated their career to finding a cure for neuropathy, as of yet no cure has been found. Though there is no current cure, there are several neuropathy treatments that have proven to be beneficial in helping ease neuropathic pain.
Treatment options should always be discussed with a doctor before attempting. However, if you feel that the current treatment option being used to relieve your neuropathy pain is being infective, then speaking with your doctor about one of the following options might be needed.
Researching each and every treatment option available for neuropathy can help you narrow down which treatment options you are most comfortable with trying and using on a daily or weekly basis.
One such group that has dedicated their life to helping assist neuropathy patients in finding pain relief from neuropathy symptoms is The Neuropathy Treatment Group. The Neuropathy Treatment Group has developed a treatment option called Neuropathy Support Formula. This Formula has several healing components that make the product worth researching one of the ingredients found in the Nerve Support Formula is Benfotiamine.
Benfotiamine is a lipid-soluble form of the vitamin B1. Benfotiamine originated from Japan back in the 1950's and was originally designed to help aid those suffering with alcoholic neuropathy. Since its discovery, Benfotiamine has helped hundreds of people find relief from neuropathic pain. Unlike most medication options, Benfotiamine has no known side affects therefore making it a safe natural option.


Described below are the Department of Mathematical Sciences requirements for the Ph.D. degree in Mathematics. These departmental requirements supplement those set out by The Graduate School. There are no foreign language requirements or qualifying exam for a Ph.D. in Mathematics.
The Ph.D. student's Program of Study listing their intended coursework must be approved by all committee members.
Typically, a Ph.D. student takes 18 credits of mathematics in courses numbered 500 or higher to prepare for their comprehensive examination. Students are encouraged to begin some form of doctoral reading or research (either informally or in the form of M 689 credits) with a committee member by their second year of study.
The Ph.D. comprehensive examination in Mathematics consists of both a written and an oral component. The candidate must pass the written comprehensive exam before taking the oral comprehensive exam.
The written part of the Ph.D. examination in mathematics consists of three tests, chosen from the following eight areas listed below. Students entering the Mathematics Ph.D. program from the Mathematics M.S. program who pass both written components of the M.S. Comprehensive Exam at the Ph.D. level need only take two Ph.D. written comprehensive exams from the following list below. Students entering the Ph.D. program from another institution may also sit for the written M.S. Comprehensive Exam immediately upon entrance to the Ph.D. program. If the student scores a Ph.D. pass on both components of the exam in one attempt, then the student may use a Ph.D. pass on both components to satisfy one of the three components of the written Ph.D. comprehensive exam.
All candidates must take and pass the test on Measure Theory and Complex Analysis.
Students should choose their remaining tests in consultation with their advisor. One purpose of this is to ensure sufficient breadth in the choice of tests. The student's choice of tests must be approved by the student's Graduate Committee.
At most one "nonstandard" component (not from 2-8) may be taken with the approval of the candidate's committee.
Exams are given every August on dates determined by the department.
All students must attempt at least one exam in August before the beginning of their second year, and must attempt three exams by August preceding their third year.
Students have a final opportunity to complete the exams in January of their third year (after completing five semesters of coursework). Failure to pass at this time results in termination in the graduate program at the end of the third academic year.
A student is permitted to take a maximum of three exams each exam period, and may repeat a failed exam only once, and only at the discretion of the student's supervisory committee.
After passing the Ph.D. written comprehensive exam the candidate must pass an oral comprehensive exam within 1-2 years from the date of passing the written exam, as determined by the supervisory committee. The exam date will be agreed upon by the candidate's committee. Normally the oral comprehensive exam is a thesis topic proposal where the candidate's ability to conduct research on the proposal is assessed. When this is not the case, the candidate will be informed about the nature of the oral comprehensive exam by the supervisory committee. The candidate has at most two attempts to pass the oral comprehensive examination.

After a bit of searching, I have been unable to find a checklist containing the combinations of all Bitterblack Gear Skill Rings and Bands. Please note I have been hoping to find a checklist containing all of the combinations for the skill-based rings/bands – not the combinations for Virtuoso Rings, Preceptor Rings, and Master Rings as those combinations are far too numerous. It is certainly possible the list is out there somewhere, but I have had no luck finding it.
The following links contain lists that are close, but not quite what I was hoping to find.
So, using the wiki as a reference, I put together a (hopefully complete) checklist in the following posts of this thread. Please let me know if you find any mistakes and/or omissions. Also, if someone knows of an existing checklist, please feel free to share it.
Bumping the topic in order to allow more time to verify the list.
1) The Steam page pointed from your link provided above is indeed a work well-done there. Although, in regards to finding Master Rings (or Perceptor and Virtuoso), it says: "Neutral rings are common results for all vocation colours, e.g. Master Ring" and "Neutrals are common outcomes of purification for all vocation types, regardless of colour, hence 'neutral.' Godsbaning to swap vocation colour does not change a neutral result, although it rarely may.", which are not accurate ... When i purify and find these types of Rings (Master Rings, mostly), changing vocation color sometimes (NOT rarely, as the author there says) may yield one or more Master Rings, instead of Skill Bands - i usually purify G3s by tens, after Death-farming & i have found Master Rings on different Voc Colors, instead of Skill Bands.
2) Speaking of Master Rings, duplicate Rings CAN exist in the same account. Deianira has four (4) duplicate Master Rings and Danika one (1). By duplicate, i mean identical Master Rings.
3) Finding all the above missing Skill Rings - if they actually exist, that is - will take a LONG time, since GL1s & GL2s come "naturally" from BBI grinding, besides all the chests that may yield them, but it is a slow process & actually slower than gathering GL3s, from Death-farming (mostly).
If someone else has purified any of the above missing Skill Rings, i hope he-she can confirm their existence.
I performed another round of test purifications after collecting more G2s since the last time I provided an update. Unfortunately, I am unable to verify the existence of the remaining seven skill rings at this time. The remaining list of skill rings requiring verification is provided below (please note they are all obtained from G2 purification because they provide upgrades to vocation specific skills).

The U.S. has approximately 264 million registered vehicles and 218 million drivers with a valid driving license. 2015 was one of the worst years given there were 6.3 million car crashes that resulted in fatalities, injuries as well as property damages. When you consider the frequency of minor accidents and the fact that 20% of fatal crashes in the U.S. are linked to unlicensed drivers according to the AAA Foundation of Public Safety, the probability of being involved in a car accident isn't as low as most people think. So, what should you do if you are involved in an accident?
Never drive away from an accident scene. Immediately after a collision, remain on the scene.
To prevent further accidents, take measures like setting up a flare, putting up a reflective triangle warning sign and putting your hazard warning lights on. This step should be taken in minor accident cases. In case of a major accident that limits your movement, wait in your car and call for help.
You should call the police immediately after being involved in an accident even when the accident isn't serious. This is recommendable since you need a police report to file an accident claim with your insurer.
It might take the police a while to arrive at the scene of the accident. Use this time to document everything. You should focus on collecting information such as; name and phone numbers of the other driver/s and witnesses if any. You should also obtain driver's license and insurance information of the other driver/s as well as take pictures and videos of the scene before moving the vehicles. Other important information that should be noted include; time, date and weather. Share this information accurately with the police when they arrive. If you don't know certain facts, don't speculate, misstate or guess.
The police should give you and the other driver/s a report number which you will use to get a police report.
Most car insurance policies demand immediate reporting. You should find out if you have medical benefits at this time. Car accidents may result in injuries that aren't apparent immediately. It is important to find out if your insurance covers a medical examination to avoid additional costs. Your insurer should advise you accordingly when you call them.
Besides contacting the police and your insurer, you need to contact an accident lawyer as well. You need an accident lawyer to ensure valuable evidence isn't destroyed. Some insurance companies are known to take statements from their clients immediately after accidents. You should seek legal advice before offering such a statement since they can determine if you will be compensated and how much you will receive. An accident lawyer is capable of safeguarding all your interests ensuring you get the compensation you deserve.
Car accidents can be very costly. Besides car damage costs, you are bound to incur other costs like; out-of-pocket medical expenses and loss of income (if you miss work because of injuries). You can also become disabled. You should get compensation for such costs and occurrences. However, you need the best accident lawyer you can find.
Stambaugh Law is a renowned law firm with 29 years of experience in handling and winning car accident cases.

A Comparative Study of the Foundations of Medical Ethics in Secular and Islamic Thought
Author(s): Mohsen Rezaei Aderyani,Mehrzad Kiani / Language(s): English / Issue: 40/2015
The principles of medical ethics, common as they are in the world at the present time, have been formed in the context of Western secular communities; consequently, secular principles and values are inevitably manifested in all corners of medical ethics. Medical ethics is at its infancy in Iran. In order to incorporate medical ethics into the country's health system, either the same thoughts, principles, rules, and codes of Western communities should be translated and taught across the country, or else, if the principles and values and consequently the prominent moral rules and codes of Western medical ethics are not consistent with the culture, customs, and religion of our country, then new principles and values should be formulated that are more in harmony with our society. According to the available literature in Iran, the four principles proposed by Beauchamp and Childress do not contradict the Islamic-Iranian culture and can thus be generally applied in the mentioned context. However, the application of these four principles and their derivatives (e.g. regulations and codes) requires careful examination and adaptation to Islamic ethics. A comparison of the ontological, anthropological and epistemological foundations of secular and Islamic attitudes shows the differences between these two attitudes to be deep-rooted. "Rationalism," "scientism," and "humanism" are the main foundations of secularism, whereas "Godcentrism," "pure human servitude to God," the belief in "returning of humans to God," "resurrection day," and also human's accountability to God are all fundamental beliefs and principles of religion for Muslims of all cults and sects. It can thus be concluded that the principles of secularist thought are different from and to some extent inconsistent with the principles of Islam. Instructions derived from secular thought can therefore not be implemented in an Islamic community; rather, these communities should adopt Islamic foundations as the source for the norms and standards of their medical ethics. The capacities of religious thought (in particular, Islam) make possible the formation of an ethical system consistent with Islamic Ummah.
Administration of Zakat on Wealth in Maldives
Author(s): Aishath Muneeza / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2017
For Muslims zakat is obligatory and different jurisdictions in the world have different mechanisms to administer it. Maldives is a hundred percent Muslim country and zakat administration in the country is unique. As such the objective of the paper is to discuss the zakat administration in Maldives with special reference to zakat al mal and to discuss the challenges facing the existing way of zakat administration. The paper also includes ways to overcome the challenges. No literature on this area in Maldives could be found and as such reference to primary materials such as unpublished statistics, reports, brochures have been made. It is hoped that this paper will encourage further research on this area in Maldives.
Ali Abdurazik i teorija odvojenosti islama i politike: kritičko vrednovanje
Author(s): Seid Halilović / Language(s): Serbian / Issue: 1/2018
A year after Atatürk abolished the institution of the caliphate, Ali Abdel Razek, an Islamic scholar from the traditional alAzhar University, published a not-too-thick volume entitled Islam and the Foundations of Political Power and initiated a new and dynamic discussion of completely unexpected proportions about the relationship between Islam and politics. Distinguished professors of al-Azhar had an urgent meeting and made a decision that Abdel Razek should be stripped of his title of an Islamic cleric because of the views he had expounded in his book. However, despite this, in the following decades his book became one of the most popular texts among the contemporary Muslim thinkers in the Egyptian scientific and political circles and beyond. On the basis of a detailed analysis of the contents of this book we notice that Abdel Razek persistently attempts to show that the caliphate did not have any benefit for the Muslims, and that it even was a source of permanent injustice and evil. He concludes that the political power, the state and even the judiciary should not be connected with religion, because they are exclusively political phenomena. He also insists that the Prophet Muhammad was a purely spiritual leader and that he had never contemplated the concepts of political authority or the state. For this reason he explicitly claims that politics and religion are mutually incompatible and warns Muslims that they must follow the latest results of human reason in the field of political science if they wish to consolidate the foundations and structure of the political power in their societies. However, we notice that, due to his frequent and generally objective criticism of the Caliphs and their policies in various historical periods, Abdel Razek ignores the fact that in the Quran and the Islamic tradition there are frequent references to the political power, the judiciary, defense issues, economic control, and the organization of internal and international politics, that is, that both the Quran and the Islamic tradition contain teachings about a different policy that leads one toward eternal bliss. Such policy, the ultimate purpose of which is the enlightenment of man and society, was written about extensively by the representatives of a brilliant political philosophy and political jurisprudence in Islam, who relied on the cognitive credibility of the religious texts and the various categories of theoretical and practical reason.

Author(s): Mecid Baverdi / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 3/2009
This article deals with the benefit and influences of remembering ALLAH(GOD) in the light of ayets and religious stories (hadis). Remembering ALLAH(GOD) endows (presents) spiritual life to human. But the abandonment of remembering removes the human from ALLAH (GOD) and makes a friend with Satan.

Author(s): Krystyna Urbisz Golkowska / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2014
The dramatic transformation of the Arabian Gulf since the discovery of petroleum resources has called for a new perspective on the situation of women in the region. Qatar is an example of fast-paced industrialization,modernization and profound socio-cultural changes. As the environment transforms literally from day to day, new identities are being forged and social roles renegotiated.The leadership's vision for the country speaks of gender equality and opportunity for all. This article asks how young Qatari women's personal stories fit into the national narrative of change and what they see as the best path to agency and empowerment.
Arabiškasis Ibn Rušdo Peripatetizmas
Author(s): Dalia Marija Stančienė / Language(s): Lithuanian / Issue: 59/2009
The article reveals the influence of Arab philosophy to Latin Western Europe and discusses the propagation of Ibn Rushd's philosophical and theological ideas. When Cordoba Caliphate was established, Muslim philosophers and theologians commented Hellenistic heritage and passed it to the Christian culture. Unknown to Europe treatises of Aristotle and their commentaries was translated into Latin at Toledo Translation Academy. Arab thinker Ibn Rushd is regarded as one of the most notorious commentators of Aristotle. He not only commented Aristotle but also considered the idea of human thinking and intellectual cognition, was interested in the theory of the World's eternity, dealt with socio-political aspects of social life and with the problem of unity between theology and religion. While dealing with the latter, Ibn Rushd claimed that political leaders ought to organize social life in such a way that theologians were not able to disturb the peaceful cohabitation of ordinary people and philosophers. Ibn Rushd's ethical-intellectual theory of society and man played an important role in formation of European intellectual identity.

Az iszlám Közép-Ázsiában. Változatok egy vallásra
Author(s): Gitta Szekér / Language(s): Hungarian / Issue: 06/2018
The paper reviews the history of Islam in Central Asia and its form of Islamic practices, both "mystical Islam" and so-called "folk-Islam". The text examines the importance of oral narratives and their sociocultural constructions within its particular context. While the presence of Islam in certain parts of Central Asia dates back to the 17th century, the spread of the faith in regions that are now the modern states of Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, was, in actuality, a gradual process. We can talk about the case of Islamisation in multiple waves. The first section of the paper aims to present the main historical events, including Bukhara, "the Mecca of the East", and the importance of the "Central Asian Golden Age". It reviews the Soviet era (together with the birth of the modern nations within the Soviet nationalities policy), the shaping of Islamic practices during this time and the effect of both the "underground Islam" of the Soviet times and the foreign impact in the Islamic discourse of these independent states beginning from the Nineties. It assesses the rebirth of Sufism in a national context and the possible influence of foreign jihadi movements. The second part of the research seeks to demonstrate the religiously diverse nature of the region and its encounter with Islam. It notes the effect of certain Shamanistic rituals and beliefs that shaped the religious practices, such as the Osh Bibiyo (and, through this, women's possible empowerment by their leading role in healing and religious rituals), that is now an organic part of Islam in the region. By exploring the spiritual past of Central Asia, the paper aims to prove the deep implantation of Islam into the life of the people, though with peculiar local characteristics.
Bâtınî Ekolleri Anlamada Anahtar Bir Kavram: Ezılle/Gölgeler Nazariyesi
Author(s): Ali Avcu / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 2/2016
There are numerous studies on the esoteric sects in Islam. Though in these studies they have been discussed from different respects, none of them draws attention to the place and importance of the theory of shadows (aẓilla) in the esoteric sects. In this article, after the identification of the meaning of the theory of shadows, it has been argued that the concept of shadows has a central role in understanding the esoteric system of thought. In this context, it has been tried to reveal the central effect of the theory of shadows on the basic ideas of esoteric sects.
BEWERTUNG UND ANALYSE ZUR ENTSTEHUNG DER ISLAMISCHEN SCHULEN
Author(s): Ibrahim Usta / Language(s): Turkish / Issue: 11/2011
Like every other religion, the Islam has offered mankind a new system of life and ideology. For lots of people Islam has different and personal, as well as ideological and political meaning.

Černý, Karel. Velká blízkovýchodní nestabilita: Arabské jaro, porevoluční chaos a nerovnoměrná modernizace 1950–2015. Prague: Nakladatelství Lidové noviny, 2017, 577 pp., ISBN 978-80-7422-595-6; English edition: Instability in the Middle East: Structural changes and uneven modernisation 1950–2015. Prague: Charles University – Karolinum Press, 2017, 476 pp., ISBN 978-80-246-3427-2. An abridged English version of this review has been published in the online version of the British Journal of Middle East Studies, Vol. 46, No. 3 (2019). The book by Karel Černý, published simultaneously in English and Czech (with the title "The great Middle Eastern instability: The Arab Spring, post-revolution chaos, and uneven modernization 1950–2015"), offers, in the reviewer's opinion, a unique and original analysis of a broad spectrum of issues which the Middle East region has had to face roughly since the end of WW2. The author analyses modernization processes in local politics, economies, education, and media, as well as demographical changes and urbanization, finding the roots of the regional instability in a disharmony of the above spheres. He sets his studies of these regions into several macrohistoric-sociological comparative frameworks illustrating both specific and general aspect of the modernization process in the Middle East. In doing so, he evaluates the roles of Islam and post-colonialism as two indispensable factors of the situation in the Middle East in responsive and unconventional manner. Černý backs his analysis and conclusions by a broad selection of secondary published sources and a firm theoretical anchoring, but also by original and detailed empirical research and his own productive theoretical model. Thanks to the above, the author is able to present to us an accurate and convincing picture of the processes and events leading to the tumultuous Arabian Spring and subsequent events.

Božanska zakonitost – savršeni čovjek
Author(s): Mensur Valjevac,Sedad Dizdarević / Language(s): Bosnian / Issue: 11/2018
The teaching of a Perfect man represents one of the most universal archetypes of human belief. We can find this teaching in different religions and even in some atheist teaching. This doctrine in a certain manner summarizes all religious, philosophical and scientific issues. By relying on the classical literature and occasionally applying the comparative method, this paper attempts to show the basic principles and specific features of the Islamic teaching about the Perfect man. Even though it shares similarities with the doctrinal teachings of other religions and ideologies, the Islamic teaching has developed a very characteristic and comprehensive concept of teaching about the Perfect man, without questioning at all the essential Oneness and Perfection of God and without getting into any pantheistic, panentheistic or antropotheistic apories. The Islamic concept of the Perfect man best preserves and develops the idea of pure and absolute monotheism (tawheed) by successfully overcoming the traps of monotheistic, dualistic and pluralistic understanding of the relationship between God and everything else other than Him. The paper presents the cosmological and ethical teaching about a Perfect man in an argumentative manner and points out the invaluable contribution of Shayh Mustafa Čolić and his specific elaboration and semiotic analyses of this very important doctrinal teaching within the rich tradition of the Islamic civilization and spirituality.

Converging Identities, Emerging Discourses: Muslim Fe-male Voices in British Media
Author(s): AHMED Sameera T / Language(s): English / Issue: 24/2019
There is an increasing presence of female Muslim voices in both mainstream British media and minority or community media as greater access has enabled them to create spaces for themselves in print, broadcast and new media. In converging their gender and religious identities, they are generating new discourses that challenge widely held stereotypes and starting new conversations about what it means to be female, British and Muslim. Using interview data from five journalists and examples of media discourses, this paper shows how the articulation of gendered and religious identities is evidence of a growing confidence and continued agency among young Muslim women in the UK.
Crossing the Divide between Christianity and Islam: Representations of Religious Conversion in Three Seventeenth-Century English Plays
Author(s): Ludmilla Kostova / Language(s): English / Issue: 1/2017
This article focuses on three English plays, The Renegado, or the Gentleman of Venice (1624) by Philip Massinger, The Tragedy of Mustapha, Son of Solyman the Magnificent (1665) by Roger Boyle, Earl of Orrery, and The Siege of Constantinople (1675) by Henry Neville Payne, which were written at a time when the illdefined entity generally known as "the West" today was not in the ascendant and apprehensions of the expansionist Ottoman Empire and its dependencies in North Africa played an important role in European social and political life. The plays are approached from a historicist perspective as attention focuses on anxieties aroused by the early modern European perception of Islam as an alien religion that nevertheless attracted Christians and incited them to convert. Representations of religious conversion are also analysed in terms of gender differences. In addition, each of the plays is read as a response to a particular set of social and political problems, which troubled early modern England and were re-imagined through dramatized stories of encounters between Muslims and Christians.
DA LI JE "EURO-ISLAM" UTOPIJA ILI REALNA ŠANSA I ZA ISLAM I ZA EVROPU?

Democracy from Islamic Law Perspective
Author(s): Abdulkadir Mubarak / Language(s): English / Issue: 3/2016
It is frequently argued that because many Muslim states are monarchies or dictatorships or because of certain events that have taken place within their borders, Islamic law is not compatible with democracy and democracy is even neglected in the provisions of the holy Qur'an. Islamic law, according to what can be traced in its primary sources, not only supports democracy and people's participation in the state affairs but even possesses provisions in the Qur'an verses which encourage counselling and consultation and some scholars deem that to be democratic representation. Islamic Law, according to the provisions of some verses from the holy Qur'an encourages democracy but not liberal democracy like that of the western world. The religious democracy that can go with our modern time and solve many contemporary problems of the Muslim world is the model which was introduced by late Ayatollah Imam Khomeini after the 1979 Islamic revolution in Iran. The author in this research work concludes by showing that the ideal democracy enshrined in the holy Qur'an, as the primary source of Islamic law, is not liberal democracy of the western world, but rather a religious democracy.

Stevens Point. Founded in 2015, the Legislative Children's Caucus is a bi-partisan group with the purpose of cultivating a legislature dedicated to advancing promising, evidence-informed public policy that improves the life of every Wisconsin child. The caucus is co-chaired by Rep. Jill Billings (D-La Crosse), Rep. Joan Ballweg (R-Markesan), Sen. Alberta Darling (R-River Hills) and Sen. LaTonya Johnson (D-Milwaukee).
The informational hearing will feature local invited speakers who focus on primary prevention of child abuse and neglect and serve at-risk families. These speakers will present information to the caucus co-chairs and local state legislators. The Legislative Children's Caucus chose to hold hearings throughout Wisconsin to facilitate learning between state legislators and the local community partners who implement evidence-based practices to address child abuse and neglect. These hearings will be held throughout the month of March in La Crosse, Milwaukee, Green Bay, Stevens Point and Rice Lake.
This meeting is open to the public and press.
