Visual communication in architecture is a genuine aspiration in realizing the relationship between the Malays and other communities. The composition of the models in this communication is very well organized and will remain relevant to be developed from time to time. It is an observation on the symbols, types of motifs and design aspects of the carvings, also the structural elements in the Malay architecture of Negeri Sembilan. This also comprises the study of the chronology of the early history of the Malay architecture of Negeri Sembilan which has its linkages with the Islamic art. Emphasis is given to the diversity in the carving characteristics as a comparison regarding historical, cultural and environmental backgrounds. The delicacy of the craftsmanship among Malay carvers in Negeri Sembilan is reflected in their maturity and ability to fuse traditional elements and Islam. Symbols that have motifs in the carvings result from the carvers' observation and experience. The selection of these motifs is carefully made to ensure that they are the Islamic teachings and not deviating with the Islamic law. Carvings in the Malay architecture of Negeri Sembilan are also crafted with an aim to beautify a piece of architecture made of various motifs. Those carved parts are always assured to maintain the balance with the surrounding space. Floral motifs are often combined with cosmic or geometrical motifs. In many cases, plant-based motifs are also prevalence translated into carvings. This is a tribute from the Malay carvers to beauty, perfection, and harmony of nature.

Given the fragmentary evidence about the emergence of Western plainsong, scholars have not reached a consensus about how early liturgical chant was transformed into fully formed Medieval repertories. Proposed explanations have centered on the Roman liturgy and its two chant dialects, Gregorian and Old Roman. The Old Hispanic (or Mozarabic) chant can yield new insights into how and why the creators of early repertories selected and altered biblical texts, set them to specific kinds of music, and assigned them to festivals. I explore these questions from the perspective of the Old Hispanic sacrificia, or offertory chants. Specific traditions of Iberian biblical exegesis were central to the meaning and formation of these chants, guiding their compilers’ choice and alteration of biblical sources. Their textual characteristics and liturgical structure call for a reassessment of the theories that have been proposed about the origins of Roman chant. Although the sacrificia exhibit ample signs of liturgical planning, such as thematically proper chants with unique liturgical assignments, the processes that produced this repertory were both less linear and more varied than those envisaged for Roman chant. Finally, the sacrificia shed new light on the relationship between words and music in pre-Carolingian chant, showing that the cantors shaped the melodies according to textual syntax and meaning.

Before the abolition of the slave trade in the British empire in 1807, colonial Sierra Leone was an experiment in free trade and free labour, founded by the Sierra Leone Company, a joint-stock company led by antislavery activists, and settled by African American Loyalists from Nova Scotia. This chapter explores the early history of the colony, and shows how antislavery was undermined by the routines of the transatlantic slave trade. Meanwhile, African American settlers were marginalised, and the arrival of 500 Jamaican Maroons in 1800 helped to cement the relationship between the leaders of the antislavery movement and the British armed forces.

The Relationship

Two important spheres of the history of medieval architecture in the Anatolia-Armenia-South-Caucasian region remain insufficiently explored due to some kind of taboos that still hinder their study. This concerns the relationship between Armenia and Georgia on the one hand, and between Armenia and the Islamic art developed in today’s Turkey and South Caucasus during the Seljuk and Mongol periods, on the other. Although its impartial study is essential for a good understanding of art history, the question of the relationship between these entities remains hampered by several prejudices, due mainly to nationalism and a lack of communication, particularly within the countries concerned. The Author believes in the path that some bold authors are beginning to clear, that of an unbiased approach, free of any national passion. He calls for a systematic and dispassionate development of comparative studies in all appropriate aspects of these three arts. The time has come to break taboos.

This article discusses the concept of Islamic aesthetics, which is the view of art and beauty according to Ismail Raji Al Faruqi and Seyyed Hossein Nasr, the representation of the two intellectual figures is seen as representing a pattern of religious understanding, especially with regard to the perspective of art objects in Islam. The aim is to explain descriptively the comparative views of the two modern Islamic thinkers and examine how Muslims respond to their thoughts in the Islamic art world today. furthermore, the article explain conceptually how religious art thought is believed and chosen as a basis in determining the direction and expression of art in the socio-cultural space. The method used in this study is descriptive qualitative analytic, with a religious philosophical approach to Islam, while data collection techniques are carried out through qualitatively described literature. The results show that aesthetics built on Sufistic conception and spiritual appreciation so distinctively in it’s paradigm. The Sufistic paradigm emphasizes how art encourages one's psyche without debating legal status, while monotheistic aesthetics built on the basis of dogmatism and belief in the faith underlines the exoteric level, the foundations that are considered permissible or not may not legally Islamic law. Community social responses and the selection of aesthetic views are sectarian in accordance with their religious beliefs.

Thus, by the end of 1948, belief in the value of oxygen therapy was universal. The newborn infant was thought to be more resistant to higher pressures of oxygen than the adult, and oxygen was accepted as being generally beneficial to the premature infant. Pediatricians concerned with mortality, neurological deficits such as cerebral diplegia and mental retardation, or with cyanotic attacks and apnea had a firm rationale for their strong emphasis on prompt and vigorous oxygen therapy as a major advance in the care of premature infants. Better incubators and piped-in oxygen in the new premature centers permitted better care after World War II. The relationship between RLF and oxygen therapy was neither known nor suspected.

This paper is a critique of the contribution of William Ivins's Prints and Visual Communication (1953) to an understanding of the meaning of fine art reproductions. Ivins showed that photographic reproduction was constructed in relation to, and displaced, older ways of reproducing art which were carried out by handicraft engravers. His analysis alerts us to the fact that ambiguity characterized art reproduction before photographs. Art reproductions, then, were interpretations in line based on conventional modes of representation – what Ivins calls a visual syntax. In this respect he enhances our understanding of the social construction of the artist. For Ivins the social history of reproduction seems to end with the camera. This completed an individuation of creativity ushered in with the Renaissance, but which was always qualified by the interfering visual syntax of craftsmen-interpreters. It is argued that the value of Ivins's account resides in its reconstruction of the relationship between handicraft engraving, fine art reproduction and aesthetic objects that have long since slipped from our consciousness.

A mutation in RNF213 (c.14576G>A), a gene associated with moyamoya disease (>80%), plays a role in terminal internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis (>15%) (ICS). Studies on RNF213 and cerebral aneurysms (AN), which did not focus on the site of origin or morphology, could not elucidate the relationship between the two. However, a report suggested a relationship between RNF213 and AN in French-Canadians. Here, we investigated the relationship between ICA saccular aneurysm (ICA-AN) and RNF213. We analyzed RNF213 expression in subjects with ICA-AN and atherosclerotic ICS. Cases with a family history of moyamoya disease were excluded. AN smaller than 4 mm were confirmed as AN only by surgical or angiographic findings. RNF213 was detected in 12.2% of patients with ICA-AN and 13.6% of patients with ICS; patients with ICA-AN and ICS had a similar risk of RNF213 mutation expression (odds ratio, 0.884; 95% confidence interval, 0.199–3.91; p = 0.871). The relationship between ICA-AN and RNF213 (c.14576G>A) was not correlated with the location of the ICA and bifurcation, presence of rupture, or multiplicity. When the etiology and location of AN were more restricted, the incidence of RNF213 mutations in ICA-AN was higher than that reported in previous studies. Our results suggest that strict maternal vessel selection and pathological selection of AN morphology may reveal an association between genetic mutations and ICA-AN development. The results of this study may form a basis for further research on systemic vascular diseases, in which the RNF213 (c.14576G>A) mutation has been implicated.

تناول هذا البحث بالدراسة واحدة من أهم معضلات العالم الإسلامي وهي الاعتداء على رموزه من خلال سب نبيها محمد  والاستهزاء به، فكان من الواجب أن يكون هناك بحث موضوعي يرد ويسدد ويوجه مسار مواجهة هذه التعديات، فجاء هذا البحث موضحا أحد أساليب مواجهة الدعوة في القديم والحديث، مبينا مخالفتها للنظم والمعايير الأخلاقية والذوق الحضاري، وبيان حكمها ليس في التشريع الإسلامي فقط، وإنما في الدساتير والمواثيق الدولية. وقد خلصت الدراسة إلى بيان أساليب الرد في الصدر الأول من الإسلام، وكذلك  زمن الصحابة رضي الله عنهم، والعصر الحاضر، منتهية باقتراح خطة حكيمة لصد هذا العدوان.*****************************************************This research studies one of the main problems of the Muslim world which is the attack on its symbols by insulting and mocking the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w.). There is an urgent need of an objective research on this subject that should respond, correct, and direct the course of facing these attacks. This research focuses on one of the methods used in both old and new propagation, explaining how it is in conflict with the ethical system and standards and civilizational decency, and elaborating its ruling which is not only in Islamic law, but also in the international covenants and conventions. The study includes discussion of the methods of rebuttal as found in the early history of Islam, during the time of ØaÍÉbah, and the present era, proposing a wise plan to repel this aggression.

This essay investigates the implementation of istihsan (juristic preference) in the early history of Islam by identifying the concept of ijtihad (independent effort) and ra’y (juristic opinion), both of which played an enormous role in the development of Islamic law. Ijtihad by ra’y (personal judgment in juridical judgment) has been practiced from the time of the Prophet, as reflected in several hadiths narrated by Mu`adh ibn Jabal (d.18/640). The Prophet taught him how to use personal discretion and encouraged the Companions to undertake ijtihad by ra’y with regard to various issues. The criteria of personal judgment in istihsan indicate a direct relationship between istihsan and ijtihad by ra’y. The nature of istihsan, the wisdom behind it, and the wisdom of its use is quite considerable. As istihsan is considered a product of ijtihad, it represents simplicity, ease, and the lifting of difficulties. If the resulting qiyas (analogy) is not in keeping with the Shari`ah’s spirit, then the ruling of similarities should be abandoned in order to give a ruling according to the special evidence that justifies its spirit. The definitions of istihsan, ijtihad, and ra’y; the historical perspective of ra’y; the validity of ijtihad and its implementation at the time of the Prophet and the Companions; and the practices of ijtihad in terms of istihsan among the Companions are all explored in this paper.
