The Concept of the Unlettered Prophet in Islamic Thought: A Comparative Theological Study among Islamic Sects
Allah sent Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) with the illuminating Book and described him as the unlettered Prophet. Although he lived among eloquent Arabs, he was understood to neither read nor write, which was one of his miracles. The Qur’an, revealed in clear Arabic, was his greatest miracle. With the emergence of Islamic sects, interpretations of the term “unlettered Prophet” differed according to doctrinal views. This study highlights the significance of this attribute, showing that the Prophet’s unlettered nature is a mark of perfection, not deficiency, unlike in other people.

Awj ibn ‘Unuq in the major Tafsir works A Critical Study
This study deals with the analysis of the character of Awj bin Anq. He is one of the legendary characters as mentioned in books of interpretation and Israeli stories. He is described as a strange and controversial character. He is said to be the son of a woman called Aqbbint Adam, according to some sayings, and it has been said otherwise. Among the most prominent things reported about him is that he is a man of exceptionally tall, great stature, or that he used to drink water from the clouds. This is what made the commentators differ as to the truth of his matter. Is it a real fact? Or just a myth from the stories of the children of Israel? Most of the narratives are without authentic support. Rather, Some scholars consider it to be an Israeli hadith whose veracity cannot be certain. Indeed, many hadith scholars and commentators have denied its veracity explaining the extent of its reliance on some interpretations in fabricated or extraneous narrations, and the research method adopted critical analysis of the narrations and their documentation, along with their dimensions with the methods of scholars in accepting news or responding to it .

Doctrinal Fortification in Sūrat al-Aʿrāf: A Thematic Study
This paper argues that creedal fortification constitutes an epistemic and civilizational necessity in light of cultural challenges that threaten the identity of the Islamic world. It further maintains that creedal fortification is not merely a provisional defensive mechanism grounded in temporary human reasoning; rather, it is an integrated Qur’anic system rooted in divine revelation, harmonizing its doctrinal foundations with epistemic, educational, and civilizational dimensions. The study adopts Sūrat al-Aʿrāf as a paradigmatic model upon which this framework may be constructed, given its juxtaposition of the paths of guidance and misguidance, its narratives of vicegerency and empowerment, and its articulation of the divine patterns governing civilizational rise and decline.
Timing and Its Rulings in Financial Partnership Contracts: A Comparative Fiqh Study
This study examines the rulings governing timing in financial partnership contracts, namely Mudarabah, Musaqah, and Muzaraʿah. The research begins by collecting and analyzing the technical definitions of these contracts as articulated by the four Sunni schools of Islamic jurisprudence. These definitions are examined in detail, and the most authoritative views are identified. The study concludes that jurists differ regarding the permissibility of stipulating a time period in Mudarabah: some permit it, while others prohibit such stipulation. The research ultimately favors the view that allows Mudarabah to be time-bound. With regard to Musaqah, the study finds no juristic opinion prohibiting its timing; rather, all discussions of timing in Musaqah support its permissibility. As for Muzaraʿah, the study concludes that the preponderant opinion permits its timing, whereas the opposing view that disallows timing is considered weak.

The Impact of the Objectives of Islamic Law (Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah) on the Preferential Weighting of Juristic Rulings Related to Contemporary Digital Transactions: A Comparative Jurisprudential Study
This research aims to demonstrate the impact of the objectives of Islamic law (maqasid al-shari'ah) on determining the rulings of contemporary issues related to digital transactions, such as electronic contracts, digital currencies, and modern financing platforms. It also seeks to clarify the extent to which the maqasid-based approach can address the apparent conflict between specific texts and the demands of the evolving technological landscape. The research problem is framed by the following question: To what extent can the objectives of Islamic law be adopted as a determining factor in evaluating digital transactions and ensuring their legitimacy without compromising fundamental principles? The importance of this research stems from the expanding scope of the digital economy and the need for a jurisprudential framework that safeguards wealth, prevents uncertainty and harm, and keeps pace with technological advancements. The research employs an inductive, analytical, and comparative methodology across the four major schools of Islamic jurisprudence, utilizing the maqasid-based approach. The research concludes that the maqasid-based approach is an effective tool for determining the rulings of legal opinions when it adheres to the principles of Islamic jurisprudence. It recommends the establishment of joint technical jurisprudential committees to study contemporary digital issues.

The Ruling on the Niqab for the Woman in Ihram, or Covering her Face: A Comparative Jurisprudential Study
Covering a woman's face is a teaching of Islamic law. Some schools of thought consider it obligatory, while others consider it recommended. However, the matter differs for a woman in ihram for Hajj or Umrah due to the crowding and mixing of men and women. In these cases, the woman's need for the niqab is greater to cover her face when passing by unrelated men. On the other hand, a woman's ihram involves covering her face, which necessitates uncovering it. Therefore, the research plan includes: an introduction addressing the importance of the topic, the reasons for choosing it, the methodology used, and the research problem; and two sections: the first explaining the meanings of the terms, and the second addressing the ruling on the niqab for a woman in ihram.

Methodological insights of Sheikh Fadl Hassan Abbas on the sciences of the Qur'an in his book (Itqan Al-Burhan in the Sciences of the Qur'an)
One of the most important tools that helps in understanding the Qur’anic text is the science called Qur’anic Sciences, which contains a number of sciences related to the Qur’an and its verses. This science arose with the revelation of the Qur’an, and then the classification and organization of it developed with the movement of authorship that was active during the Islamic Renaissance in its early ages. Contemporary scholars have made a clear contribution to the sciences of the Qur’an. Hence, we find that the writings of later scholars included many benefits and additions that cannot be denied in this science. Among the most important of the later scholars is Sheikh Fadl Abbas, may God have mercy on him, the author of useful writings, valuable observations, and unique investigations. His book, "Itqan al-Burhan fi Ulum al-Qur'an" (Mastering the Proof in the Sciences of the Qur'an), represents the pinnacle of scholarship in the sciences of the Holy Qur'an. This book is replete with numerous investigations and additions that have enriched the sciences of the Qur'an and its branches.
The Caliphate according to the People of Sunnah and the Community - An Analytical Study
The first major crisis that befell the Muslims after the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) passing, the repercussions of which we still grapple with, was the first military conflict, the shock of which we still feel, stemming from the disagreement among the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) companions regarding the successor. To honor the most prominent schools of thought that emerged after the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) passing: Sunni, Shia, and Kharijite. Among these schools of thought is the Sunni school, which holds that the consensus of the Muslim community is the source of legitimacy, based on the principle of consultation and free choice. This aligns with the spirit of the age in selecting the caliph through consultation and presenting the choice to the people of authority (parliament) for ratification. This research addresses this issue and seeks to shed light on the view of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama'ah (the Sunni community) regarding the caliphate and its implications. Its scholarly content is divided into several sections, culminating in a conclusion that presents the findings and recommendations.

The Quranic approach to guiding female role models in Surah At-Tahrim (an analytical perspective)
Surah At-Tahrim represents a unique model of family and educational guidance, as it addresses an issue related to the sanctity of the Prophet’s household and the disclosure of secrets. It presents an integrated set of methods of guidance and discipline for women, ranging between gentleness and firmness, encouragement and warning, and grounded in the principle of both individual and collective responsibility. This approach is exemplified in the manner of dealing with the wives of the Prophet (peace be upon him). It is based on implicit and indirect reproach, where blame is not directed at the wives explicitly; rather, the discourse begins with the verse: “O Prophet, why do you prohibit what Allah has made lawful for you, seeking the pleasure of your wives?” This method causes the wives to sense the mistake through reproaching the other party, an approach intended to preserve dignity and save face for those being admonished. Another method is overlooking details (educational discretion), as refraining from mentioning certain mistakes reflects a Prophetic etiquette in handling marital and familial errors. However, when the mistake affected the status of Prophethood and the exemplary role it represents, the tone shifted to strong warning and severe admonition,
