Comparative studies are an important field of literary studies in the Arabic language, and their importance is shown in the fact that this area shows the greatness of Arabic language and literature and its impact on everyone who deals with it. This influence was reflected in its strongest form in the nations that entered Islam in the first Islamic conquests, One of the most affected nations is the Persian nation, the Arabic language in the poets and literature of the Persians in the early Hijri centuries influenced so strongly that some poets organized in the two tongues, and enriched their poems with quotations from the Arabic literature. They were influenced by the former and contemporary Arab poets according to culture The era that was based on the glorious poet is the poet familiar with the poetry of the Arab poets and the best representative of this vulnerability poet Moazy El Nisaboury which was marked by the appearance of his hair the effect of Arab poets in his poetry clearly. I have addressed this impact with the icons of Arabic poetry from Emraa El Qays and Abu Nawas and Al-Mutanabi in the presentation of the effects of images, meanings, rhyme, weight and others, within the limits of the comparative approach belonging to the French school supported by the descriptive analytical approach to Analysis of poetic texts, Then at the end of the research introduce the findings and recommendations

Purpose: To study the existence of the Arabic language in the Indonesian language mostly limited to terms used in Islam religion. Methodology: This article discusses the existence of Arabic literature in the Indonesian source text, a novel with the life in a pesantren as the setting, where the author of the source text needs to translate the Arabic expressions used in the story into Indonesian. Then from the Indonesian source text, the novel is translated into English. The method used in this research is the descriptive comparative method. The leading theory used for this research is the strategies of Translation by Vinay and Darbelnet (1995), what Arabic linguistic units involved in the Indonesian source text, and what strategy of conversion used by the author and the translator become the objectives of this research. Principal Findings: The results show that the Arabic linguistic units found are ranging from a word into a clause or sentence, and the strategies of Translation used in the target text do not always deal with one single procedure; sometimes, it involves a combination of some procedures. Applications of this study: The translation work may lead to similar as well as a contrastive linguistic phenomenon. People can learn more about languages involving in a translation, particularly when the structures of the source and target language are compared linguistically. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study covers the gap left in the previous research carried out by the same team entitled “Translation Equivalences of Islamic Terms in the Novel (The Land of Five Towers ‘Negeri Lima Menara’). This previous research used the same data source, Arabic expressions, in the novel. It focused more on the Arabic feelings relating to Islamic terms, such as names of five obligational prayers, names of optional prayers, activities in shalat, or praying. The rest of the Arabic phrases which are not used in this previous research are left unstudied.

How was Arab identity imagined in a world where most Middle Eastern populations stopped calling themselves Arabs? After the mid-ninth century AD, descriptions of Arabs proliferated in Arabic literature, whilst Arab identity as a social/political asset was in decline. In this period, the key spokesmen for the idea of Arabness were philologists who fundamentally reworked impressions of Arab identity as part of new theories about the Arabic language. Diachronic survey of the development of Arabic philology from the late eighth to eleventh centuries reveals shifting intentions and values which standardised the Arabic language via a unique process that focused on the idealisation of Bedouin as paragons of the ‘original Arabs’. Studying Arabic philology within its socio-historical contexts reveals how the grammarians transcended language study and forged paradigmatic changes to the ways Arab history and culture are interpreted. The novel association of Arab with Bedouin became a popular theme in Arabic literature from the early tenth century, and the weight of the resultant writings comprehensively transformed Arabness from the former expression of urban/Muslim elite identity in early Islam to a desert/Bedouin pre-Islamic identity which has cast a long shadow on the notion of Arab identity to the present.

This study is related to the Volubilis project "Moroccan and European students: a comparative approach”, which aims to identify the challenges and expectations of Moroccan students.The education system knows a big diversity In Morocco; primary and secondary schools are based on Arabic language, private system is based on international language like: French, English or Spanish, but a majority of private school use French language. However, Moroccan postsecondary studies are based on French language, a passage from Arabic language to French language between secondary school and higher education could be a barrier to learning in higher education.The purpose of this research is to provide data about how the students University Hassan II of Casablanca use languages in their learning, and the impact of French language in higher education.350 students participated in the survey. Their average age is 22 years and they have no physical or mental disability.Our results indicate that the majority of students surveyed face a lot of problems in learning and using French language. To answer the survey, a majority of students reported using both languages (French and Arabic) showing that university students don’t have a good level in both Arabic and French languages.

Contacts and relations between Arabs and subcontinent are primitive. When Islam was spread and the Islamic state was extended to this region. The subcontinent was enlightened by Islam and was cultured by its civilization. The residents of the Indian subcontinent were impressed by Arabs and their civilization and culture and as a result, wrote many books in the Arabic language in different fields. The impact of all this is that the residents of the subcontinent were highly influenced with the Arabs but as we know these influences and impacts between the two kinds of literature were not only from one side, indeed a mutual exchange of influences occurred. Arab writers and poets wrote many books and eulogies about Pakistan its problems its cities and its famous personalities like Muhammad Ali Johar, Allama Muhammad Iqbal, and Muhammad Ali Jinnah, etc.     This study attempts to employ descriptive, comparative and analytical survey of Arabic works focusing on the life and struggles of Muhammad Ali Jinnah. This study also highlights the misconceptions found in literary works of Arab Scholars about historical facts concerned with the political history of Muhammad Ali Jinnah.

This chapter calls for a study of Arabic literature from a comparative perspective, arguing that a comparative approach will help to undermine self-centricism and thus allow a more humanist perspective to dominate the field. Although comparative literature is meant to be ‘a discipline of tolerance’, the chapter accuses scholars on both sides of the divide of trying to deny the importance of this interaction in bringing about the changes we witnessed in the histories of Arabic and other world literatures. It cites one example of this intolerance: the West's continued refusal to acknowledge any role played by the Hispano-Arabic strophic poetry Muwashshah and Zajal in the emergence of the twelfth-century Troubadour songs. The chapter also considers one factor that justifies the need for a comparative approach to Arabic literature: the multi-cultural nature of the new Mahjar literatures produced by Arab writers all over the world in Arabic and other living languages.

The current study experimentally investigates the heat transfer augmentation on the novel axial corrugated heat exchanger tube in which the spring tape is introduced. Air (Pr = 0.707) is used as a working fluid. In order to augment the thermohydraulic performance, a corrugated tube with inserts is offered. The experimental study is further extended by varying the important parameters like spring ratio (y = 1.5, 2.0, 2.5) and Reynolds number (Re = 10 000–52 000). The angular pitch between the two neighboring corrugations and the angle of the corrugation is kept constant through the experiments at β = 1200 and α = 600 respectively, while two different corrugations heights (h) are analyzed. While increasing the corrugation height and decreasing the spring ratio, the impact of the swirling effect improves the thermal performance of the system. The maximum thermal performance is obtained when the corrugation height is h = 0.2 and spring ratio y = 1.5. Eventually, correlations for predicting friction factor (f) and Nusselt number (Nu) are developed.

AbstrakHegemoni kolonialisme dalam budaya poskolonial merupakan alasan penelitian inikemudian mengkaji wacana kolonial dalam novel Max Havellar (MH) khususnya dampakditimbulkannya. Dampak dimaksud adalah posisi keberpihakan pemikiran tersirat darikarya tersebut. Hasil pembahasan menunjukkan, secara temporal maupun permanen MHmenyuarakan ketidakadilan dalam kondisi-kondisi kolonial menyangkut penindasan sangpenjajah terhadap terjajah. Hanya saja, upaya mengatasnamakan atau mewakili suarakaum terjajah terbukti mengimplikasikan ciri ideologis statis kerangka kolonialisme(orientalisme); yakni cara pandang Eropasentris, di mana “Barat” sebagai self adalah superior,dan “Timur” sebagai other adalah inferior. Dalam konteks poskolonialisme, MH dengan sifatkritisnya yang berupaya “menyuarakan” nasib pribumi terjajah, justru menampilkan stigmapenguatan kolonialitas itu sendiri secara hegemonik. Artinya, “menyuarakan” nasib pribumidimaknai sebagai keberpihankan kolonial yang kontradiktif, di mana stigma penguatankolonialitas justru lebih terasa, ujung-ujungnya melanggengkan hegemoni kolonial. Tidakmembela yang terjajah, tetapi memperhalus cara kerja mesin kolonial.AbstractThe hegemony of colonialism in the culture of postcolonial society is the reason this studythen examines the colonial discourse in the novel Max Havellar (MH) in particular the impactit brings. The impact in question is the implied position of thought in the work. The resultsof the discussion show that, temporarily or permanently, MH voiced injustice in the colonialconditions regarding the oppression of the colonist against the colonized. However, the effort toname or represent the voice of the colonized has proven to imply a static ideological characterin the framework of colonialism (orientalism); ie Eropacentric point of view, in which “West” asself is superior, and “East” as the other is the inferior. In the context of postcolonialism, MH withits critical nature that seeks to “voice” the fate of the colonized natives, actually presents thestigma of strengthening coloniality itself hegemonicly. That is, “voicing” the fate of the pribumiis interpreted as a contradictory colonial flare, where the stigma of strengthening colonialityis more pronounced, which ultimately perpetuates the hegemony of colonialism. No longerdefending the colonized, but refining the workings of the colonial machinery.

In December 2019, a unique coronavirus infection, SARS-CoV-2, was first identified in the province of Wuhan in China. Since then, it spread rapidly all over the world and has been responsible for a large number of morbidity and mortality among humans. According to a latest study, Diabetes mellitus, heart diseases, Hypertension etc. are being considered important risk factors for the development of this infection and is also associated with unfavorable outcomes in these patients. There is little evidence concerning the trail back of these patients possibly because of a small number of participants and people who experienced primary composite outcomes (such as admission in the ICU, usage of machine-driven ventilation or even fatality of these patients). Until now, there are no academic findings that have proven independent prognostic value of diabetes on death in the novel Coronavirus patients. However, there are several conjectures linking Diabetes with the impact as well as progression of COVID-19 in these patients. The aim of this review is to acknowledge about the association amongst Diabetes and the novel Coronavirus and the result of the infection in such patients.
