Employing Heritage in the Modern Arab Novel A Study in Signification and Function: A Critical Literature Review and Comparative Analysis
The present study conducts a critical review of the literature relevant to the use of cultural heritage in the modern Arabic novel, based on eighteen verified academic sources (nine Arabic and nine foreign). The study addresses a central issue regarding how modern Arab novelists employ heritage within their narrative texts and the aesthetic, semantic, and ideological functions this utilization serves. To achieve this, a conceptual model is adopted linking forms of heritage (religious, historical, popular, and mythological) with narrative functions, examined through qualitative critical reading focusing primarily on Egyptian and Sudanese narrative models, with partial extension to Syrian novels. The findings indicate that heritage utilization frequently extends beyond mere aesthetic functions to embody identity and resistance dimensions, while maintaining methodological caution regarding statistical generalization due to the qualitative nature of the review.
Investigation of the Section "How the Subject is Distinguished from the Predicate" in the Book Mawahib Al-Adeeb fi Sharh Mughni Al-Labeeb by Sheikh Muhammad Ahmad Al-Azniqi، Known as Wuyi Zada (1018 AH)، Part 3، from Folio 798/b to Folio 801/a
This study investigates and verifies an academic excerpt from the manuscript Mawahib Al-Adeeb fi Sharh Mughni Al-Labeeb authored by Sheikh Muhammad Ahmad Al-Azniqi، widely known as Wuyi Zada (d. 1018 AH). Specifically، the research focuses on editing and analyzing the section addressing how the subject (Mubtada) is distinguished from the predicate (Khabar)، spanning from folio 798/b to folio 801/a of the third part. The study adopts an analytical and investigative methodology to ensure text integrity، compare available manuscript copies، and thoroughly evaluate the linguistic and syntactic viewpoints discussed by the author in dialogue with preceding grammarians such as Ibn Hisham Al-Ansari and Sibawayh. Furthermore، the paper highlights the scholarly contributions of an underrepresented figure in biographical literature، demonstrating his rigorous academic engagement with complex grammatical issues.
The Abbasids and their position towards the Alawites in the first Abbasid era (132 AH / 232 AH / 749 / 846 AD)
This study examines the nature of the relationship between the Abbasids and the Alawites during the First Abbasid Era. It argues that the Alawites continued to regard themselves as the rightful claimants to the Caliphate following the martyrdom of al-Husayn ibn Ali at Karbala. Whenever political circumstances were favorable, they sought to advance their claim, while periods of weakness often led them to adopt a more cautious and restrained approach. With the emergence of the Abbasid da'wah, some Shi'ites supported it under the belief that it would ultimately restore authority to the Alawite family, whereas others chose to remain neutral despite sharing the objective of ending Umayyad rule. The study further demonstrates that relations between the Abbasids and the Alawites were initially characterized by a degree of cooperation during the revolutionary movement. However, this understanding deteriorated after the Abbasids assumed power. Many Alawites, particularly members of the Hasanid branch, believed that they had been marginalized and deprived of a position they considered their legitimate right. They viewed the Abbasids as having benefited from the widespread support generated by the movement before consolidating power exclusively in their own hands. As a result, political tensions intensified, and the relationship gradually evolved from temporary cooperation into open rivalry throughout the First Abbasid Era.

Representations of Cultural Patterns in the Libyan Novel
This research examines "Representations of Cultural Patterns in the Libyan Novel," starting from the premise that the novel is a mirror reflecting profound social and political transformations, and is capable of absorbing and deconstructing dominant and implicit patterns. The study seeks to answer several questions about the nature of cultural patterns governing the structure of the Libyan novel, how the relationship between these patterns and the psychological and aesthetic structure of the text's manifests, and the extent of their ability to reflect the human struggle with authority and society as well as deconstruct the patriarchal pattern. To achieve these objectives, the research adopted the descriptive analytical method as a general framework, utilizing psychological, cultural, and aesthetic approaches. The study concluded that the Libyan novel succeeded in blending cultural depth with psychological richness and artistic aesthetics, and that cultural patterns infiltrate through oblique narrative techniques such as description, free association, and flashback rather than directly. The research also emphasized the pivotal role of the unconscious in producing narrative images as an outlet for existential crises.

Arab Thinkers' Responses to Orientalist Claims
Arab thinkers' responses to Orientalist claims emerged within diverse intellectual currents, characterized by both the criticism and refutation of perceived biases, and the selective utilization of Orientalist methodologies. These responses varied in their intellectual trends and analytical approaches. This research investigates the significant discourse surrounding these responses, focusing on how Arab thinkers addressed allegations regarding Islam's relationship with reason and the originality of Islamic philosophy. It highlights that these responses were not merely defensive, but constituted a critical intellectual project aimed at deconstructing the ideological and political foundations of Orientalist discourse. The study demonstrates that Arab thinkers effectively challenged the notion of a monolithic, anti-rational Islamic civilization by grounding their arguments in historical evidence and Islamic theological texts. Furthermore, it refutes the claim that Islamic philosophy was merely a derivative imitation of Greek thought, arguing instead that Muslim philosophers critically synthesized and transformed inherited traditions to reflect the realities and values of Islamic civilization. Ultimately, the research illustrates that these intellectual engagements were essential in challenging the hegemony of Orientalist perspectives and in affirming the independent, innovative contributions of Islamic thought to global intellectual history.

From Combating Illegal Migration to Prohibiting Settlement: The Transformation in Libyan Criminal Policy (A Critical Analytical Study)
The Libyan criminal policy has witnessed a significant shift in addressing illegal migration, transitioning from the Anti-Illegal Migration Law No. (19) of 2010 to the Anti-Settlement Law No. (24) of 2023. This study aims to elucidate the nature and scope of this transformation, determining whether it represents a mere tightening of penalties or a fundamental shift in the protected legal interest and the philosophy of criminalization. Utilizing a critical analytical approach, the study examines the relevant legal texts and the legislative intent behind both statutes. Findings indicate that the legislator has shifted from a policy focused on border security and combating illegal entry to one aimed at protecting national identity and national security by preventing the permanent settlement of foreigners. This transition is reflected in the reconstruction of certain offenses based on the special intent of "settlement" and the introduction of legal presumptions for its proof. The study further identifies several legal and practical challenges arising from the overlapping application of these two legislative frameworks.

Family Security and Suicide Prevention: An Analytical Reading of Selected Field Indicators of Suicide in Libyan Society
This study aimed to develop an analytical framework for family security as a preventive approach to inform national strategies for suicide prevention. It analyzed field indicators of suicide in Libyan society to identify the social, economic, and psychological characteristics of individuals who died by suicide and to examine the relationship between the dimensions of family security (social, psychological, economic, and intellectual) and the characteristics revealed by the field data. The study also sought to highlight the role of the family in suicide prevention through its functions of care, emotional support, and empowerment. The study adopted an analytical approach using the secondary data analysis method. The data were obtained from official statistics issued by the Libyan Ministry of Interior for the Greater Tripoli Municipality, covering 40 suicide cases recorded in 2022. The dataset included information on marital status, age, employment status, place of residence, physical and psychological health, unemployment and idleness, as well as social isolation and hopelessness. The findings revealed a decline in family security across its various dimensions. In particular, the results indicated insufficient psychological and emotional support within families, coupled with economic vulnerability that contributes to family conflict and persistent daily stress, thereby undermining family stability. The study concludes that strengthening family security should be considered a key component of national suicide prevention strategies. It recommends implementing psychological and educational support programs for families through educational, religious, and community institutions, as well as expanding economic support for vulnerable families and adopting social policies that mitigate socioeconomic pressures.

The Democratic Path and Political Stakes: A Philosophical Reading of the Possibility of Universal Grounding in Contemporary Arab Thought
This study examines the problematic of the democratic path in contemporary Arab thought from a critical philosophical perspective, employing a conceptual framework that synthesizes democracy, freedom, justice, and values. It explores the dialectic of identity and communication within the context of the Arab uprisings and their subsequent deep-seated political and social transformations. Furthermore, the study investigates the relationship between democracy as a universal concept and Arab-Islamic cultural heritage, reviewing the theoretical contributions of thinkers such as Habermas, Ricoeur, Hassan Hanafi, and Fethi al-Triki. The study concludes that constructing an authentic Arab democratic model necessitates a departure from local specificity while remaining open to universal values, anchored within the framework of the ethics of dialogue and communicative reason.

The Conflict in Sudan and the Security Challenges for the Libyan Authorities
This research investigates the profound impact of the ongoing armed conflict in Sudan on Libya's national security, focusing on the strategic, political, and social consequences of the instability emerging from the Sudanese civil war. The study adopts a descriptive-analytical and historical approach to examine how the collapse of security structures in Sudan since the fall of the Al-Bashir regime, and the subsequent escalation between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces, directly threaten the fragile stability in Libya. By analyzing the historical development of border security, the study highlights critical challenges, particularly concerning illegal migration, the proliferation of small arms, and the potential infiltration of terrorist organizations into the porous southern Libyan borders. Furthermore, the paper evaluates the internal Libyan dynamics, noting how political fragmentation and the absence of unified security institutions complicate the state's response to these external pressures. The research concludes that the Sudanese conflict serves as a catalyst for regional insecurity, necessitating a comprehensive national security strategy that prioritizes border control, intelligence cooperation, and regional diplomatic engagement. Recommendations emphasize the urgent need for a unified Libyan security vision, enhanced border monitoring mechanisms using modern technologies, and the formation of joint security committees with neighboring countries to mitigate the spillover effects of the crisis. Ultimately, the study underscores that Libya's security is inextricably linked to the restoration of stability in Sudan and the broader Sahel-Saharan region, urging proactive regional cooperation to safeguard national sovereignty against the multidimensional threats arising from the ongoing humanitarian and security catastrophe in Sudan.

Professional Intervention Mechanisms for Social Workers to Mitigate the Effects of Crises
This study aims to identify the nature of crises requiring professional intervention by social workers and to outline the key measures and strategies involved. The research employs a descriptive-analytical method to explore the professional intervention mechanisms used to mitigate the psychological and social impacts of crises. The findings indicate that professional intervention is a crucial factor in reducing these negative impacts, and that the psychosocial support provided by social workers and their teams plays a vital role in enhancing the coping and recovery capabilities of affected individuals and groups. Furthermore, the study highlights that the success and effectiveness of such interventions depend heavily on rapid response, advance planning, and coordination among government and non-governmental institutions. Conversely, a lack of human and material resources remains a significant constraint on the efficiency of these interventions. The study emphasizes that social workers and crisis response teams require continuous, progressive training in crisis management and rapid disaster intervention skills. In light of these conclusions, the researcher recommends organizing training courses for social workers and vulnerable populations, providing the necessary human and material resources to support social work roles, and encouraging further research in crisis management to leverage findings for developing professional practices. The study concludes that the integration of scientific knowledge with practical professional values is essential to meet the needs of those affected by crises effectively.

The Legal Framework for Public Loans in Libyan Legislation
This research investigates the legal framework of public loans within the Libyan legislative system, exploring their nature, definitions, and the criteria governing their issuance. As public loans have evolved from exceptional financial resources into fundamental instruments of monetary policy, the study examines their role in managing economic challenges, mitigating budget deficits, and fostering development. Utilizing an analytical and deductive methodology, the research reviews the provisions of Law No. 15 of 1986 concerning public debt, analyzing the stages of loan issuance, legal guarantees, and the legal nature of public loan contracts. The study argues that public loans are administrative contracts rather than acts of sovereignty, emphasizing the necessity of binding legal regulations to ensure transparency and accountability. Findings reveal that while the Libyan legislator has established a framework for public debt, there is an urgent need for comprehensive, modern legislation to regulate all aspects of borrowing effectively. The study recommends directing loan proceeds toward productive investments and supporting small projects, which have proven essential for achieving sustainable economic development in developing nations. Furthermore, it highlights the importance of distinguishing between various types of loans—internal vs. external, and voluntary vs. forced—to optimize their impact on the national economy and maintain the state's financial stability and credibility.

Judicial Authority in Waqf Investment: A Jurisprudential Study
This study highlights that the investment of waqf, from an Islamic jurisprudential perspective, is not merely a financial practice. Rather, it is an area of ijtihād (juridical reasoning) governed by Shariah interests and the objectives of waqf, wherein the judicial authority intersects with the requirements of preserving and developing waqf assets. This interaction achieves a balance between the judiciary’s power of supervision and guidance, and the observance of the founder’s conditions and the principles of trusteeship in managing waqf. The study concludes that judicial intervention in waqf investment is not absolute but constrained by Shariah and purposive regulations. In this context, the judiciary’s role extends beyond merely implementing rulings or acting as a supervisory body; it functions as an instrument for regulating and directing waqf investment to ensure sustainability, prevent disruption or deviation, within a foundational framework that balances authority and restraint. Consequently, this jurisdiction remains governed by Shariah limits and guided by its higher objectives.

The role of socialization institutions in promoting national identity and citizenship values: A field study on students of the Faculty of Arts/ Msallata, El-Mergib University
Aiming to investigate the role of socialisation institutions in promoting national identity and the values of citizenship among students of the Faculty of Arts at University of Almergib in Msallata, the researcher employed a descriptive-analytical approach and administered a validated questionnaire to a sample of (119) male and female students. The results demonstrated that socialisation institutions, particularly the family, play a pivotal role in instilling the values of citizenship and identity, emphasizing the importance of sound educational methods and social interaction in political education. The study also indicated that socialisation institutions constitute the primary starting point for the formation of values and standards, and that societal changes necessitate awareness programs to enhance identity and belonging Furthermore, the research revealed that a culture of dialogue and democracy within the family and other social institutions contributes to strengthening the values of citizenship and identity, and that these values are manifested in volunteer work, participation, equality, justice, and freedom. It affirmed the role of socialisation institutions in teaching children national and religious loyalty and pride in cultural identity, while a low educational level of parents leads to less attention being paid to these values. The findings also clarified that the family contributes to establishing the values of citizenship and identity by teaching children to participate in volunteer activities, preserve public property, and promote cooperative values The current study aligns with previous studies regarding the significance of children’s participation in national events and volunteer work. In light of the findings, the researcher recommended establishing awareness programs to enhance the social and political role of socialisation institutions in consolidating citizenship values, holding seminars and activities on identity and belonging, intensifying the efforts of social workers and educational counselors, benefiting from previous studies, and focusing on teaching national education as a subject in various educational stages.

National Security Principles in the Prophetic Sunnah
This research investigates the fundamental principles of national security as derived from the Prophetic Sunnah. It highlights the significance of security as a primary necessity for human life, upon which individual and collective activities depend. The study employs an inductive, descriptive, and analytical methodology to explore the security dimensions within the Prophetic texts. The research concludes that security is a comprehensive concept encompassing religious, intellectual, physical, and economic dimensions, explicitly established as a legitimate goal within the Islamic legal framework (Maqasid al-Shari'ah). The study identifies five key principles for achieving national security in the Prophetic tradition: recognizing that security is religiously permitted and pursued , acknowledging that security is conditional upon obedience to the ruler (within the bounds of Shari'ah) , emphasizing that security is a collective responsibility , establishing brotherhood and social cohesion as requirements for security , and asserting that justice in governance is a fundamental condition for stability and security. These principles provide a robust framework for preserving the state, protecting public and private rights, and ensuring societal stability against internal and external threats. The findings underscore that true power and national stability are rooted in faith, justice, and societal unity, rather than mere material numbers.

Theoretical perspectives on the relationship between leadership and shaping the work environment; a sociological analysis of organizational behavior
This study analyzes the relationship between leadership as an organizational behavior and the shaping of the work environment from a sociological perspective. It aims to deconstruct the concept of leadership as a social act within organizational contexts by reviewing key theoretical perspectives in organizational sociology, specifically employing analytical and comparative approaches to examine functional, interactionist, critical, and structural theories. The study posits that leadership is not merely an administrative function but a dynamic social process. The findings indicate that the relationship between leadership and the work environment is indirect, mediated by specific social mechanisms, and cannot be reduced to a single model. Each theoretical lens offers a distinct interpretation: the functionalist model views leadership as a means to impose order; the interactionist model sees a dialectical relationship where leadership shapes the environment and is in turn shaped by it; and the critical model highlights how leadership can be used to exert dominance or maintain power structures under the guise of an "ideal" work environment. Furthermore, the study concludes that fostering a positive work environment is determined by desired values such as creativity, stability, fairness, and productivity. It emphasizes the necessity of moving toward an integrated theoretical framework to understand leadership practices within the social structure of any organization. Finally, the study recommends adopting theoretical pluralism and conducting more qualitative field research to understand how mechanisms like trust and social capital vary across different organizational contexts.

The Hermeneutics of Digital Art: Reconstructing Judgments of Taste in Light of Contemporary Techno-Aesthetics
This research aims to provide a philosophical, hermeneutic approach to the aesthetic transformations imposed by contemporary technology on the structure of artwork and its reception. The research problem stems from the hypothesis that the integration of digital technology and artificial intelligence in art production has destabilized classical aesthetic criteria (Kantian and Hegelian) founded on human originality and the materiality of the artwork. Through three sections, the study deconstructs the concept of techno-aesthetics, interrogates the dimensions of digital reception, and reconstructs judgments of taste using a critical-hermeneutic method. The value of this research lies in offering a new interpretive framework suitable for contemporary art institutes and art criticism, overcoming the crisis of traditional interpretation faced with cybernetic and virtual arts.

This study aimed to examine the relationship between Islamic religious commitment and mental health among students at the Faculty of Sharia, Bani Waleed University, Libya. Specifically, it sought to identify statistically significant differences in mean levels of religious commitment and mental health attributed to gender and academic year variables. Employing a descriptive-analytical approach, the study population consisted of 92 students, with a final sample of 61 participants (14 males and 47 females) selected through stratified random sampling. Two standardized instruments were utilized: the Religious Commitment Scale developed by Bakhita Mohammed (2015), comprising 23 validated items, and the Mental Health Scale developed by Abrina Al-Lafi (2013), comprising 89 items. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS, incorporating means, standard deviations, t-tests, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and Pearson correlation. The findings revealed no statistically significant differences at the 0.05 level in Islamic religious commitment or mental health based on gender or academic year. Furthermore, the results indicated no statistically significant correlation between Islamic religious commitment and mental health among the study participants. These findings contribute to the ongoing scholarly discourse regarding the multifaceted interplay between religious practices and psychological well-being in the Libyan academic context. The study concludes with recommendations for future research to explore broader sociocultural variables that may influence these psychological constructs, suggesting that institutional programs for psychological support should be designed with a deeper understanding of these localized dynamics.

Procedures of the Audit Bureau and Their Effectiveness Against Current Challenges in Libya
This study examines the operational procedures of the Audit Bureau in Libya and assesses their effectiveness in promoting public expenditure rationalization amidst current national challenges. Utilizing a descriptive-analytical approach, the research explores the Bureau’s primary functions, including auditing, inspection, and the issuance of periodic and annual reports. The findings reveal that while the Audit Bureau plays a critical role in fiscal oversight and transparency, its overall impact is constrained by significant obstacles, including political instability, institutional fragmentation, a lack of inter-agency cooperation, and regulatory gaps. The study concludes with recommendations for institutional reform, advocating for the strengthening of the Bureau's independence, the digitalization of auditing processes, and the enforcement of professional standards to enhance accountability and public financial management in Libya.
