Abstract:
Indonesia is a country with the largest number of Muslims in the world, this makes the potential of zakat in Indonesia reach 233.8 T. Caliph Umar bin Abdul Aziz is one of the successful caliphs in managing zakat. This study aims to determine the management strategy and distribution of zakat during the caliphate and in Indonesia, which then analyzed the possibility of its application in Indonesia. This analysis uses qualitative methods with literature review and content analysis analysis tools. The results of this study indicate that the fundamental factor of the success of the caliph in the management of zakat is in the legal system governed by the government. So that in the collection, management and distribution becomes centralized. In addition, public trust in the government also determines the success of the caliph in managing zakat.

Abstract:
Roughly around the end of the 7th century, a distinct genre of Islamic literature began to develop under the rubric fadāʾil (“virtues” or “excellences”) that praised the merits, for example, of reciting the Qurʾan, of the Companions of the Prophet, of performing religious duties such as hajj and jihad, and of sacred cities such as Jerusalem. The fadāʾil literature initially was a part of the burgeoning hadith corpus, and the fadāʾ-Qurʾ an traditions appear to be the oldest strand. A variant term for this type of tradition, especially with regard to the Companions of the Prophet, is manāqib (and less frequently, khasāʾ is). A survey of this kind of “praise” literature indicates that the terms manāqib and fadaāʾil could be used fairly interchangeably.

Abstract:
The article introduces the results of a preliminary study of the unique work, the Manaqib al-khulafa (The Virtues/Excellences of the Caliphs) compiled by Qawam ad-Din Muhammad al-Husaini alSanaujiradi al-Ziyaratgahi al-Harawi in 997/1588. This is a response to the protest message of the Shiites of Herat, who survived the siege and capture of the city by the Sunnis the Shibanid troops. The Manaqib recreates the early stages of the history of Islam before the split caused by the difference in the understanding of principles of the supreme political power (elective or hereditary) transfer and reveals the virtues of the four righteous caliphs. Fragments of the Quran and hadiths cited in the treatise present irrefutable evidence of the Sunnis superiority over Shiism. The treatise is an excellent example of polemical literature of bitter ideological struggle between two orthodoxies Sunni and Shiite and contains valuable information on the religious and political history of Eurasia in the premodern period.

Abstract:
This research patterned literature by examining and tracing various literature, relating to human construction in the Koran. Research findings that humans from the creation process have various potentials and functions of life in this world. So that humans have a position of choice, the best human being and the main human being. The human position of choice is in words, namely: mukhlason (clean / choice), al-Mushthofaina (chosen people), and al-Khiyarah (choice). The best human position is found in the word al-husna (best) and husnu (the best). The process of relevance and development with the world of education, that education as a strategic means aims to develop or cultivate the basic physical and spiritual abilities of humans as caliphs.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter discusses the Arabic “Advice to Kings” (Naṣīḥat al-mulūk) attributed to Pseudo-Māwardī. Marlow shows how rulers not only solicited and received advice (the education of princes being a prominent function of mirrors for princes) but also dispensed and performed it themselves. Marlow argues that what made advice compelling was its grounding in established authorities, including the sacred sources, the examples of venerated figures of the early Islamic era, and the conduct and sayings of caliphs, kings, and sages of the past. The roles of the monarch as wise dispenser or humble recipient of advice exposed him to potential challenges, and advisory literature prescribes the spatial and temporal boundaries within which caliphs and kings received advice but also attests to their transgression.

Abstract:
This chapter establishes the intense desire and nostalgia for Baghdad as the Abbasid Caliphate's cosmopolitan capital and its centrality in the Muslim imaginary, among the near and the far. Poetry, historical chronicles, and scholarly literature from Muslim Spain in the west, Yemen in the south, and Egypt, western North Africa, geographical Syria, Mesopotamia, Persia, and India further east richly illustrate a shared perception among interconnected literary elites about the Abbasids' temporal and spiritual preeminence, despite all of their political reversals. For many premodern Muslims, the world without a caliph was so unimaginable that it boded the imminent end of time itself—an eschatological interpretation that reverses contemporaneous Christian views of empire.

Abstract:
Examines the phenomenon of vizier-poets in medieval Baghdad and the ‘Abbasid provinces. Argues that Persian viziers used literary, administrative skill to overshadow royals and the caliph. These viziers in the imperial provinces supported Arabic literature with great enthusiasm, but also revised the rules of courtly membership and poets’ ritual jousts. Not content to simply patronize authors, they composed their own works. With poetic statements of self-praise, religious dogma, and satire aimed at insufficiently loyal courtiers, they altered the relationship between patron and poet, each of whom was now able to slander the other in verse. Their exchanges of inflammatory compositions became some of the most closely followed events of Abbasid life, drawing the attention of imperial citizens and stationing the viziers themselves as the central, intimidating arbiters of taste. In effect, the vizierial class began to legislate with literature.

Abstract:
This chapter explores a small and neglected group of martyrs who converted from Islam to Christianity. It is divided into five sections: the first surveys the evidence for true apostasy in legal, historical, and ritual literature written by Muslims and Christians. The second discusses the life of the most famous of all the neomartyrs, Anthony al-Qurash ī, who was executed in 799 after allegedly converting from Islam to Christianity. The third explores two instances of true apostasy from the early medieval Caucasus, while the fourth examines several examples from Iraq, Egypt, and al-Andalus. The fifth and final section revisits the Life of Anthony and investigates its connection to a cluster of legends about the conversion of the caliph and other high-ranking Muslim officials. The conclusion offers general reflections about the nature and portrayal of conversion, contending that Islamization must be seen as a fragile, highly contingent process in the early period.

Abstract:
Peyote is one of the best-known plant sources for a psychedelic experience. This small cactus is also associated in the popular mind with North American Indians and Hippies. Although its ritual use is thought to be over 7,000 years old (Furst 1989, cited in Schaefer 1996: 141), its use by Indians of the Native American Church (NAC) is less than 100 years old. The peyote button is the essential ingredient in the ritual ceremony associated with NAC meetings and is referred to as “the medicine” by those who regard the button as a god-being and ingest it as a sacrament (Slotkin 1956: 29; Smith and Snake 1996: 80, 91, 105–6). Even more recently, non-Indians have formed churches (the Neo American Church) to follow the Peyote Way or Road (Trout 1999: 47). Secular uses of peyote are as medicine, especially for topical application to the skin on open wounds (Schultes 1940), for divination to discover something lost or when possible attacks of the enemy will occur; or for mind-altering experiences of a nonreligious nature, that is, for recreation. These nonritual (profane) uses have a long history, but peyote’s more significant sacred use in the United States, as measured by numbers of participants, has been in force for little more than 100 years. Various plants are called peyote in Mexico (Schultes 1938: 157), and their usage in the public and official literature of Texas and the United States has not been precise over the years (Morgan 1976: 12, La Barre 1975: 14–17). The major confusion over the common name among field anthropologists and government officials has been with the mescal bean, or Texas mountain laurel [Sophora secundiflora (Ort.) DC]. This hardy, small tree produces a hard, highly toxic, red seed, which has had a long history of ritual use by Amerinds (La Barre 1975: 15). The distribution of the mescal bean is on the southern edge of the Edwards Plateau, on the caliche cuestas in the Rio Grande Plains, and in the mountains of the Trans-Pecos. The native Americans of this region strung the beans into necklaces or bracelets, and a shaman might have passed down to another shaman some of these items as important paraphernalia.

O blockchain é utilizado para o armazenamento e disponibilização de dados de maneira distribuída e segura. Apesar desse uso, não são encontrados na literatura estudos detalhados sobre o desempenho do blockchain no armazenamento e na recuperação de dados heterogêneos associados a bancos de dados. Este artigo apresenta o desempenho do blockchain para aplicações que demandam dados heterogêneos com o uso de banco de dados. Os estudos experimentais executados consideram o uso do Hyperledger Fabric e Hyperledger Caliper, ambos atuando com uma base de dados médicos reais e heterogêneos com o CouchDB. Os resultados dos experimentos mostram que o desempenho do blockchain é influenciado por diferentes fatores, como a taxa de chegada das requisições, operação realizada (leitura ou escrita) e características das tabelas armazenadas. Nossos resultados auxiliam desenvolvedores de aplicações blockchain, pois apontam aspectos decisivos para o desempenho de tais aplicações.

Abstract:
Abstract Currently, many horizontal wells are being drilled in Dadas shales of Turkey. Dadas shales have both oil (mostly) and gas potentials. Thus, hydraulic fracturing operations are being held to mobilize hydrocarbons. Up to 1000 m length horizontal wells are drilled for this purpose. However, there is not any study analyzing wellbore stability and reservoir geomechanics in the conditions of Dadas shales. In this study, the directions of horizontal wells, wellbore stability and reservoir geomechanics of Dadas shales were designed by using well log data. In this study, the python code developed by using Kirsch equations was developed. With this python code, it is possible to estimate unconfined compressive strength in along wellbore at different deviations. By analyzing caliper log, density and porosity logs of Dadas shales, vertical stress of Dadas shales was estimated and stress polygon for these shale was prepared in this study. Then, optimum direction of horizontal well was suggested to avoid any wellbore stability problems. According to the results of this study, high stresses are seen in horizontal directions. In this study, it was found that the maximum horizontal stress in almost the direction of North-South. The results of this study revealed that direction of maximum horizontal stress and horizontal well direction fluid affect the wellbore stability significantly. Thus, in this study, better horizontal well design was made for Dadas shales. Currently, Dadas shales are popular in Turkey because of its oil and gas potential so horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing operations are being held. However, in literature, there is no study about horizontal wellbore designs for Dadas shales. This study will be novel and provide information about the horizontal drilling design of Dadas shales.
