This study aims to understand the contribution of Ibn 'Ashur in the development of maqāsid al-syarī‘ah. This study uses normative method. The results showed that the contribution of Ibn 'Ashur on maqāsid al-syarī‘ah is divided into three categories, namely: the establishment of the legal entity of maqāsid; the formulation of maqāsid urgency implementation; and the division of the maqāsid al-shari'a into maqāsid al-'ammah, and maqāsid al-kha̅shshah. The first is about the legality of the law of maqāsid, that Allah, as the owner of sharī'ah, is impossible to bestow sharī'ah upon humankind without being accompanied by a noble purpose and wisdom. It is implicitly described in the verses of the holy Qur'an as mentioned in Sūrah al-Dukhān, verses: 38-39, Sūrah al-Mu’minūn, verse: 115, Sūrah al-Ḥadīd verse: 25, Sūrah ‘Alī ‘Imrān verse: 19. On maqāṣid al-'ammah, Ibn 'Asyūr confirms the important position of universality in sharī’a complexity. According to him, universality is one of the unique character of Islamic Sharī'ah, which is adjustable to the the future development of the times. The concept of maqāṣid al-'āmmah is jalb al-maṣa̅liḥ, wa dar’ al-mafa̅sid and taysīr wa raf' al-ḥarj. In this regard, he formulated four epistemological framework on al-Maqasid epistemology, namely: nature, tolerance (al-ṣama̅ḥah), equation (al-musāwah), freedom (al-Hurriyyah). On Maqasid al-kha̅ṣṣah, Ibn 'Ashur implemented the principle of Maqasid al-'amma. This is stipulated in various aspects, for example in worship, human relationship (muamalat), and others.

This paper,first presented on 21 October 1995 at ajoint seminar ofthe Scottish Law Commission and the Faculty of Law, University of Edinburgh, on the subject of breach of contract, considers the future development of the law in this area, first by considering its history and current state in comparative terms and drawing the conclusion that it is characterised by a mixture of Civilian and Common Law elements; second, by comparing Scots law with the provisions on breach contained in recently published proposals for a harmonised law of contract (the UNIDROIT Principles of International Commercial Contracts, the Principles of European Contract Law prepared by the Lando Commission, and the draft “code”for the United Kingdom prepared on behalf of the English Law Commission by Harvey McGregor in the late 1960s) and in international conventions on the sale of goods. Although Scots law emerges reasonably wellfrom this exercise, there are a number of points to be taken on board in any future reform, as well as some insights into important underlying principles.

Dominant design narratives about “the future” contain many contemporary manifestations of “orientalism” and Anti-Chineseness. In US discourse, Chinese people are often characterized as a single communist mass and the primary market for which this future is designed. By investigating the construction of modern Chinese pop culture in Chinese internet and artificial intelligence, and discussing different cultural expressions across urban, rural, and queer Chinese settings, I challenge external Eurocentric and orientalist perceptions of techno-culture in China, positing instead a view of Sinofuturism centered within contemporary Chinese contexts.

A practical and concise total synthesis of tricyclic ketone 7 (CDE ring), a valuable intermediate for the synthesis of racemic camptothecin and analogs, was described (8 chemical steps and 29% overall yield). The synthesis starts with two inexpensive, readily available materials and is operationally simple to perform. It is worth mentioning that the reported protecting group-free synthesis, with advantages of a short route, would be helpful for the future development of industry-scale syntheses of camptothecin-family alkaloids.
