Islamic teachings explain comprehensively how to purify, clean the body and the environment from uncleanness, and to use water and other washing media in a measured manner. In the concept of Islamic theory, this purification activity is known as thahârah. Due to the wide transmission of the Corona Virus Disease 2019 or Covid-19 throughout the world, this article offered preventive measures to restrain the spread of Covid-19 by practicing thahârah consistently based on a fiqh perspective. This study employed literary research method which traced a number of books by Islamic scholars related to the thahârah or purification procedures. After the data was collected, the analysis was carried out by analyzing, processing, and interpreting the data into a conclusion. The results revealed that in addition to eliminating hadaṡ, dirt, and impurity, thahârah activities such as wudhu, tayamum, titual bathing, and teeth brushing benefit for physical and spiritual health. If thahârah is practiced consistently; as a cleaning up routine activity, it will diminish the spread of Covid-19. Instead of just washing hands, for instance, it is recommended to do wudhu even if it is not for praying. Viruses sticking to the hands and face will be washed away and disappear if a person performs wudhu properly according to the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad.  The research has shown that wudhu contains tremendous benefits for health as it can stimulate energy in the body and improve blood circulation.Ajaran Islam secara rinci menjelaskan bagaimana bersuci, membersihkan badan dan lingkungan dari najis, dan bagaimana menggunakan air dan media pencuci lainnya dengan terukur. Aktivitas bersuci tersebut dalam konsep Islam disebut thahârah. Sehubungan dengan telah menyebarnya virus corona 2019 atau Covid-19 yang melanda ke seluruh dunia, artikel ini menawarkan upaya tindakan preventif pencegahan tertularnya Covid-19 dengan membudayakan thahârah  secara konsisten berdasarkan perspektif fikih. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode literary research, yakni menelusuri sejumlah buku-buku karya ulama Islam yang berhubungan dengan ṭahârah atau tatacara bersuci menurut fikih Islam. Setelah data terkumpul, dilakukan analisis dengan mengkalisifikasi, mengolah, dan menginterpretasi data menjadi suatu kesimpulan. Dari hasil analisis tersebut dapat disimpulkan bahwa selain bertujuan menghilangkan hadas, kotoran, dan najis, kegiatan thahârah seperti wudhu, tayamum, mandi, dan bersiwak bermanfaat untuk kesehatan jasmani dan rohani. Jika aktivitas thahârah ini dibudayakan secara konsisten, dalam arti dijadikan aktivitas yang rutin dalam membersihkan sesuatu, penyebaran Covid-19 akan tertekan menjadi minimal. Daripada mencuci tangan saja, misalnya, lebih baik sekalian berwudhu walaupun tidak untuk melakukan salat. Virus yang menempel di tangan dan wajah akan terbasuh dan lenyap jika seseorang melakukan wudhu dengan benar sesuai dengan ajaran Nabi Muhammad Saw. Penelitian membuktikan bahwa wudhu mengandung manfaat yang besar bagi kesehatan karena mampu merangsang dan menstimulus energi dalam tubuh serta melancarkan peredaran darah.

Corona Virus Disease-19 (COVID-19) has a significant impact on all aspects of human life in the world, especially in Indonesia which is very large in area and has a large population (around 267 million people) with different kinds of professions. The purpose of this study is to focus on civil matters, with more emphasis on the problem of agreements that are influenced by Covid-19. The normative legal research method uses a statutory approach, and a conceptual approach to force majeure and describes an analysis (analytical descriptive). The results showed that the agreement in the state of the Covid-19 outbreak greatly influenced the implementation of the agreement set and agreed upon by the parties, because the agreement binds the parties, so the parties are subject to the contents of the agreement.


Novel Corona virus disease (COVID-19) was first identified in China, which eventually became a major global health concern due to its pathogenicity and widespread distribution around the world. In the mid-sixties of the previous century, the first two human Corona viruses (HCoV) were identified: HCoV-229E and HCoV-OC43. These two human Corona viruses were studied extensively from approximately 1965 to the mid-1980s. HCoV-229E is a member of the group I Corona viruses, and HCoV-OC43 is a member of group II. 1Besides the human Corona viruses, there are several group I and group II animal corona viruses that infect cattle, pigs, cats, dogs, mice, and other animals. There is one additional branch, the group III Corona viruses, which are found exclusively in birds. By infecting healthy volunteers, researchers learned that infection with HCoV-229E or HCoV-OC43 results in a common cold, and since then, HCoVs have been considered to be relatively harmless respiratory pathogens. This image was roughly disturbed when severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)-CoV was introduced into the human population in the winter of 2002 to 2003 in China. SARS-CoV causes a severe respiratory illness with high morbidity and mortality. Currently, the Novel Corona Virus disease COVID 19 spreads around the world, killing people and turning them into corpses. The best way to do this in India, that is what it is there are many types of alkaloids in our Indian Medicinal Plants, which kill the virus of any kind and dispose of it. The alkaloids – Piperine, Curcumin, Allicin, Alliin, Allylsulfide, Allyldisulfide, Citric Acid, Acorbic Acid, Menthol, Gingerols, Shogaols, zingerone, oleanolic acid, ursolic acid, rosmarinic acid, eugenol, carvacrol, linalool, β-caryophyllene etc., the alkaloids that are mentioned are not only killing the virus but also stimulate, and activate the immune system in the body and at the same develops human energy to fight against COVID 19. The preparation and methodologies of simple medicine briefly explained in the topic Novel Remedial Approaches against Virulent Corona Viruses.

<p>Corona virus Disease-19 (COVID-19) is a global health pandemic that has affected life of every individual in the world. It is caused by a novel Corona virus strain that has caused seventh Corona virus infection that has affected human population, named as &ldquo;COVID-19&rdquo; virus by the World Health Organization. Previously, six Corona virus infections have affected humans but those caused by SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV have proved to be more lethal. Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) has been found as the receptor for COVID-19 through which cellular entry of the virus is mediated into the body. These receptors are abundantly present in the oral cavity especially on the epithelial cells of the tongue, oral mucosa and the gingiva. Saliva is an oral bio-fluid of the oral cavity in which high titres of the virus have been identified during early and later stages of infection. Saliva collection is a non-invasion method and can act as a diagnostic tool for COVID-19 disease. Common oral symptoms of the disease include transient loss of taste, smell and dryness of mouth. Precautionary measures must be taken by dentist before carrying out any dental procedure for safety of the health care professional, staff and also the patient. Dental community must think of the &ldquo;new normal&rdquo; regarding clinical dental care in light of post-COVID-19 situation.</p>

Introduction: This article includes the effect of Corona virus disease on cancer patients and their healthcare facilities. The global pandemic mentioned around the world has impacted the most vulnerable group of patients- cancer. With the assistance of RT PCR tests and HRCT, oncologists and doctors have tried to provide treatment to Covid-19 patients. Cancer patients are more susceptible to Covid-19 than non-cancer or non-survivor patients, according to reports. To avoid the prevalence and infection of cancer victims, WHO has suggested staying at home and continuing their treatment through telemedicine unless the situation is critical for which they might require therapy and/or surgery. Covid-19 is here to stay so we should practice with utmost care and precaution.

The corona virus disease, otherwise known as COVID-19, is an extremely communicable and pathogenic viral infection caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which emerged in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and has spread to almost all the countries in the world. The transmission of the virus is through touching of the nose, eyes, or mouth by a finger that has been contaminated through droplets on a surface when a carrier sneezes or coughs. Since the existing fingerprint devices are predominantly contact based, it implies that they can aid in the transmission of the virus. This paper discusses the application of fingerprint devices in notable places with high rate of COVID-19 infection as well as the threats to fingerprint technologies and the countermeasures. The need to change focus and orientation towards contactless biometric technologies as sure solution to the fear and animosity expressed towards contact-based fingerprint technology is also expatiated.
