Abstract

General Background Usury remains a central issue in religious ethics and economic discourse, particularly within Islam, Judaism, and Christianity. Specific Background Each of these Abrahamic religions addresses usury through its sacred texts, offering distinct yet related perspectives on financial justice and social responsibility. Knowledge Gap Despite existing studies, there is limited integrated analysis that compares these perspectives while linking them to broader moral and economic implications. Aims This study aims to analyze and compare the concept, prohibition, and implications of usury across the Qur’an, the Torah, and the Gospel. Results The findings reveal a shared ethical rejection of exploitative financial practices, with Islam presenting a strict and categorical prohibition, Judaism allowing conditional application within specific social boundaries, and Christianity emphasizing moral values such as compassion and generosity rather than formal legal prohibition. Novelty The study provides a structured comparative synthesis of textual, theological, and ethical dimensions of usury across the three religions. Implications These findings contribute to understanding how religious principles can inform contemporary discussions on economic justice and ethical financial systems. Highlights• Comparative interpretation reveals shared ethical rejection of financial exploitation• Distinct legal and moral frameworks identified across three religious traditions• Textual analysis connects religious teachings with socio-economic considerations KeywordsUsury; Comparative Religion; Abrahamic Traditions; Religious Ethics; Economic Justice

Abstract

General Background: Nonlinear equations frequently arise in engineering and applied sciences and require reliable iterative numerical techniques for accurate root approximation. Specific Background: Among classical root-finding approaches, the Newton–Raphson method utilizes first-order Taylor series expansion and derivative information to generate successive approximations with theoretically quadratic convergence. Knowledge Gap: Despite its theoretical advantages, detailed numerical simulation integrating convergence verification, residual decay analysis, sensitivity to initial guesses, and comparison with alternative classical methods across representative nonlinear equations remains limited in a unified framework. Aims: This study analytically derives the Newton–Raphson iteration from Taylor expansion, verifies its quadratic convergence, implements a complete Python-based simulator with iteration logging, and evaluates performance using four representative nonlinear equations, including polynomial, transcendental, and exponential cases. Results: Numerical simulations confirm machine-precision solutions within four to five iterations, empirical convergence order p≈2.00±0.05p \approx 2.00 \pm 0.05p≈2.00±0.05, rapid residual decay, and substantially fewer iterations compared with bisection and secant methods, while also demonstrating sensitivity patterns related to initial guesses near inflection or flat regions. Novelty: The study integrates rigorous derivation, numerical simulation, graphical convergence interpretation, residual evaluation, and comparative benchmarking within a single structured analysis of four canonical test equations. Implications: These findings provide validated guidance for selecting initial approximations, interpreting convergence behavior, and applying the Newton–Raphson method efficiently in numerical analysis and engineering computation contexts. Highlights: • Machine-Precision Solutions Obtained Within Five Iterations Across Representative Nonlinear Test Cases• Iteration Counts Substantially Lower Than Classical Interval-Halving and Derivative-Free Alternatives• Convergence Behavior Varies With Starting Approximation Near Inflection or Flat Function Regions Keywords: Newton Raphson Method, Nonlinear Equations, Quadratic Convergence, Numerical Simulation, Error Analysis.

Abstract

General Background: Educational theatre represents an interactive pedagogical approach that integrates artistic and educational dimensions through live performance and audience engagement. Specific Background: The construction of theatrical performance systems relies on the integration of directing, acting, scenography, and text, requiring structured yet flexible artistic coordination. Knowledge Gap: Despite its potential, many educational theatre practices remain constrained by traditional presentation patterns, limiting the application of creative thinking across performance elements. Aims: This study aims to reveal the concept of creative thinking and examine its role in constructing the theatrical performance system within educational theatre. Results: The findings indicate that performances based on psychological conflict, abstract scenography, and internal acting techniques stimulate reflective thinking, expand imagination, and promote intellectual interaction among audiences. Additionally, the integration of directing, acting, and scenography supports the delivery of educational values through indirect and non-preaching methods. Novelty: The study highlights creative thinking as a systemic and integrative process that reconfigures theatrical elements into a cohesive educational-artistic structure. Implications: These results suggest that educational theatre, when grounded in creative thinking, functions not merely as a presentation medium but as an intellectual tool that fosters critical awareness, imagination, and value-based learning. Highlights:• Psychological Conflict–Based Scripts Encourage Deeper Reflective Engagement in Audiences.• Abstract Staging Expands Interpretive Imagination Within Theatrical Experiences.• Integrated Performance Elements Support Value Transmission Through Indirect Expression.
