Abstract

Rural development plays a pivotal role in national progress, particularly in developing countries where a large proportion of the population resides in rural areas. This research paper presents a comparative analysis of rural development strategies employed by six successful nations: China, India, Japan, Iran, Turkey, and Malaysia. By examining and contrasting the approaches adopted in each country, the study identifies key strategies, challenges, and policy outcomes that have significantly contributed to the socioeconomic transformation of rural communities. The research utilizes a qualitative comparative methodology, relying on secondary data from scholarly articles, governmental reports, and international development databases. The analysis reveals that effective rural development is multifaceted, often involving integrated strategies such as agricultural modernization, infrastructure investment, decentralized governance, education and health reforms, and sustainable environmental practices. The study finds that while each country’s approach reflects its unique historical, cultural, and political context, common factors such as strong institutional frameworks, community participation, and targeted government support are consistently associated with successful outcomes. Moreover, the paper critically evaluates the role of international cooperation, innovation, and technology transfer in amplifying rural development impact. The findings offer valuable insights for policymakers, planners, and development practitioners in countries like Afghanistan that face persistent rural challenges. By learning from diverse international experiences, this research advocates for adaptive, context-sensitive policies that prioritize rural empowerment, equity, and resilience. Ultimately, the study contributes to the broader discourse on sustainable development by emphasizing the strategic importance of rural areas in achieving national development goals.

Poverty is one of the greatest concerns in all societies and economic systems. It is a negative phenomenon that threatens life. Economic schools of thought have presented various approaches to overcome poverty, but so far have not succeeded in eradicating it from human life. This occurrence is referred to as an unpleasant complication. Poverty is one of the most significant and persistent problems in both developed and developing countries, including Islamic countries. The purpose of this research is to examine the role of Islam in reducing poverty. The research method used in this study is descriptive-analytical, and the necessary information was gathered from library sources and through the use of the Delphi method. The research findings indicate that in this study, the concept of poverty and its impacts are analyzed through verses from the Quran and Hadith. Findings include the definition of poverty and the gap between the rich and the poor, which is a major concern in the fields of economics and public policy. Despite being widespread, poverty is not limited to economic aspects alone but also encompasses cultural, social, and educational poverty. Analysis from the perspective of financial development highlights the importance of understanding its overall impact.

Abstract

Universities are not independent entities separate from society; political and social systems influence them and possess significant abilities to shape various sectors. As decision-making institutions, universities are crucial in creating conditions for nurturing transformative leaders. The institutional foundation of universities aims to address the developmental needs of society. A successful university seeks indigenous solutions to real problems. The primary objective of this research is to examine the role of universities as the highest educational and training institutions in empowering individuals and society. Initially, the study explored the literal and terminological meanings of empowerment. It then highlights the essential functions of universities concerning individual and societal empowerment. This research adopts a qualitative method with a descriptive-analytical approach, examining expert opinions, literature reviews, and previous studies. The thematic analysis revealed that universities in Afghanistan significantly contribute to individual empowerment through education, innovation, and cultural preservation while addressing broader socio-economic challenges and promoting political stability. These findings emphasize the crucial role of universities in Afghanistan’s sustainable development.
