Abstract

Patriarchal norms continue to shape socio-religious expectations for Muslim women in Southeast Asia, particularly in Malaysia, where debates around gender, authority, and piety intersect within civil society spaces. Islamic feminist discourse has gained increasing visibility in recent years, yet questions remain regarding how women leaders in Muslim-majority contexts negotiate religious legitimacy while challenging gendered power structures. Malaysian non-governmental organizations (NGOs) provide an important arena for examining the everyday strategies through which women navigate patriarchal constraints and articulate faith-based approaches to gender justice. This study aims to investigate how women leaders in Malaysian Islamic-oriented NGOs engage with Islamic feminist discourse to negotiate authority, cultivate legitimacy, and advance transformative social agendas. The research seeks to identify the discursive, religious, and organizational strategies that enable or hinder women’s leadership within patriarchal environments. A qualitative case-study approach was employed, drawing on in-depth interviews with fifteen female NGO leaders, participant observation of organizational activities, and document analysis of mission statements, program materials, and public advocacy texts. Data were analyzed using thematic coding informed by feminist theory, Islamic gender ethics, and discourse analysis. Findings reveal that women leaders strategically mobilize Qur’anic principles, prophetic narratives, and concepts of justice to challenge patriarchal interpretations while maintaining religious credibility. Participants reported using relational leadership styles, community-based legitimacy, and interpretive flexibility to navigate gendered expectations. The study concludes that Islamic feminist discourse serves as both a protective shield and a transformative tool, enabling women to assert leadership within constraints while promoting more inclusive understandings of Islam in civil society.

Abstract

Ensuring the quality and integrity of halal food products has become increasingly important with the growth of the global halal food industry. Conventional quality control methods, which rely on manual inspection and laboratory testing, are often time-consuming, subjective, and prone to human error. This study aims to develop and evaluate a machine vision system powered by deep learning algorithms to automate quality control processes in halal food production. A convolutional neural network (CNN)-based framework was implemented to classify and detect defects, contamination, and non-halal elements in food products. The system was trained using a dataset of 12,500 labeled images collected from halal-certified production facilities, with data augmentation applied to improve model generalization. Performance metrics, including accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score, were used to evaluate the system. The results demonstrate that the proposed deep learning model achieved 96.8% classification accuracy, with high precision (95.5%) and recall (97.2%), significantly outperforming conventional machine vision techniques. The findings indicate that deep learning-driven machine vision can provide fast, reliable, and scalable quality control, supporting compliance with halal standards while reducing operational costs. This research highlights the potential of artificial intelligence to modernize quality assurance systems in halal food industries.

Abstract

Non-timber forest products (NTFPs) have long been integral to the livelihoods of rural communities, providing essential resources for food, medicine, income, and cultural practices. Despite their importance, the role of NTFPs in improving rural welfare is often underexplored in scientific research. Understanding their contribution is critical for sustainable development and rural poverty alleviation. This study aims to assess the role of NTFPs in the livelihoods of rural populations, exploring their economic, social, and environmental significance. It further seeks to identify the challenges and opportunities surrounding the sustainable use of these resources. The research adopts a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative interviews with local communities and quantitative data collection through surveys. Fieldwork was conducted in selected rural areas where NTFPs are a key resource. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and thematic analysis. Findings reveal that NTFPs significantly contribute to household income, particularly in communities with limited access to formal employment. They also play a vital role in maintaining cultural practices and providing food security. However, overharvesting and inadequate policy frameworks threaten their sustainability. NTFPs are crucial for rural livelihoods, but their continued availability depends on effective management strategies that balance economic needs with environmental conservation.

Abstract

Adolescence is a critical developmental period marked by rapid cognitive, emotional, and social changes that significantly influence learning processes and mental health outcomes. Cognitive development during this stage plays a central role in shaping adolescents’ academic engagement, self-regulation, and psychological well-being, yet it is often examined separately from educational and mental health perspectives. This study aims to investigate the role of cognitive development in adolescence and its implications for both education and mental health within an integrated framework. The research employed a quantitative cross-sectional design involving adolescents aged 13–18 years enrolled in secondary education. Data were collected using standardized instruments measuring cognitive development, educational engagement, and mental health well-being, and were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical techniques. The findings reveal significant positive relationships between cognitive development and educational engagement, as well as between cognitive development and mental health indicators. Adolescents with higher levels of cognitive functioning demonstrated stronger academic engagement and better emotional regulation. These results indicate that cognitive development functions as a key mechanism linking learning and mental health during adolescence. The study concludes that educational practices and mental health interventions should prioritize cognitive development as a foundational element.

Abstract

Quantum annealing has emerged as a promising computational paradigm for solving large-scale combinatorial optimization problems that are traditionally intractable for classical algorithms. The financial modeling sector, characterized by complex portfolio optimization, risk minimization, and option pricing problems, offers a fertile ground for benchmarking the performance of quantum versus classical solvers. This study aims to systematically evaluate the computational efficiency, scalability, and accuracy of quantum annealers specifically the D-Wave Advantage system against leading classical optimization algorithms, including simulated annealing and branch-and-bound methods. A comparative experimental framework was developed to test both solver types on real-world financial datasets encompassing portfolio selection and risk-parity optimization tasks. Quantitative performance metrics such as solution quality, convergence time, and energy landscape exploration were assessed. Results revealed that quantum annealers achieved near-optimal solutions significantly faster for high-dimensional problem instances with non-convex cost functions, whereas classical solvers maintained superior consistency for smaller, well-conditioned models. The findings suggest a complementary paradigm where quantum annealing can accelerate subproblems within hybrid financial optimization pipelines. The study concludes that quantum computing, while not yet universally superior, represents a viable accelerator for specific financial optimization classes under current hardware constraints.
