It publishes high-calibre research articles, theoretical studies, and critical reviews that engage with both contemporary and historical issues relevant to the region, employing a multidisciplinary approach.

Abstract

The water and the fish have different meanings because of a lingual difference, literary, and cultural code that bounds them. This paper aims to discover these meanings and uses to realize this aim convenient theories and methods that are semiotic. The semiotic theories are all studies that examine all of the communication forms using the codes based on lingual, literary, and cultural codes. This semiotic framework consists of two principal elements namely signifier and signified. The method used to solve this problem is by heuristic and hermeneutic reading conducted simultaneously. The result of this paper reveals that the term of water indicates the following several meanings: the source of very vital life, the pure heart, the patience and power of the marginalized populaces, and flowing naturally down forever, and that the term of fish signifies the meanings of very high protein’s source needed by the body of human, entertaining the heart, and a symbol of a perfect person wishing to meet The God.

Abstract

The Middle East is side by side with western countries competing in optimal utilization in processing the resources provided by the earth. Clean water is an absolute source of life that humans need. In addition, the technology and wealth of a country are the benchmarks for supporting the achievement of a country's goals. The use of manipulated nature to meet the needs of clean water is the idea of one of the developed countries in the Middle East, namely the United Arab Emirates. The United Arab Emirates, which is rich in natural wealth and abundant wealth, accompanied by advances in mindset and technology that is never separated from commemorating its culture, makes them think more deeply than other countries with their wealth of clean water. The sowing of salt in the atmosphere along with desalination/filtration of seawater into ready-to-consume water is an action taken by the Emirate to meet the needs of its people. Changes in natural ecosystems that were originally arid to become barren and green are almost impossible actions but have been successfully carried out and implemented by developed countries in the Middle East. Then the question arises about whether changing the shape and manipulating nature that should be as usual in this ecosystem will have an impact or benefit the general public.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the values of Sufism, particularly the concepts of maḥabbah (divine love) and fanā’ (annihilation of the self), as reflected in the short story “Arinī Allāh” by Taufīq al-Ḥakīm, using the narrative semiotic approach based on A. J. Greimas’s theory. The research seeks to uncover the representation of Sufi values within the narrative structure and their influence on the development of the main character. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, with data collected through a close reading of the story and note-taking based on the theoretical framework. The data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, which involves data collection, data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the story contains clear elements of the protagonist’s spiritual journey in search of the essence of God, which cannot be perceived physically but may be experienced through divine love. These results contribute to the enrichment of literary and Sufi studies by demonstrating how Sufi values are embedded within modern literary works through narrative semiotic analysis.

Abstract

Al-Farabi considered as a philosopher basic foundation of Islamic philosophy. He is also known as the second teacher (al-mu'allim al-Thani) because of his dominantability in logic and reliable commentator of Aristotle‟s thought (a great commentator ofthe first teacher). Al-Farabi managed appropriately in explaining the logic of Aristotle to the Arabic-speaking nations without changing the meaning of philosophy because heconsiders logic as a universal grammar that its validity was spread throughout the humanrace. In field of metaphysics, Al-Farabi able to explain neo-Platonism systematically byfocusing on the discussion of sense, God and cosmology. Through these thoughts, alFarabiwants to strengthen the core of the teachings of Islam that is monotheism, so there is a unity between religion and philosophy.

Abstract

The phenomenon of terrorism which is the subject of world discussion today, namely ISIS has attracted an Egyptian writer to be illustrated in a novel entitled Habībī Dā‘isyī. This novel tells the story of the struggle of a woman and her family in facing terror committed by ISIS. Laila was involved in and joined ISIS along with several other Egyptian women. At that time she felt ignored and pressured by her own family. The novel is examined and examined through Gramsci's Hegemony theory related to intellectual-moral leadership and its dominance to find out various acts of terror being excercised, in addition to how to hegemony Egyptian society, which is the setting and character of this novel. The analysis of the novel shows that ISIS is a terrorist organization which inculcates the ideology of 'jihad' to attract public sympathizers. ISIS uses violence in its actions to dominate and cause many casualties. In addition to these two things, there is an important figure, namely the leader who calls himself as khalīfah which compiles everything, therefore ISIS is known throughout the world today. All their committed actions aim to establish ad-Daulah al-Islāmiyyah or Khilāfah Islāmiyyah 'Islamic state', a country that upholds the commands and prohibitions in the Shari'a of Allah SWT.

Abstract

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a country in the Middle East with significant potential for oil reserves. This condition is an advantage that the UAE can leverage to build cooperation with other countries. One potential partner for substantial oil trade investment is the European Union (EU). This research aims to describe the investment opportunities for the UAE in the oil sector with the EU. The method used is descriptive qualitative, involving describing and validating the phenomenon and analyzing it from the perspective of national and international trade interests. The results indicate that, with its oil potential, the UAE has a significant opportunity to invest in oil trade with the EU. This opportunity is enhanced by the UAE's existing positive relationship with the EU. Therefore, the UAE can capitalize on the EU's conditions, which restrict prices and embargo Russian oil, potentially becoming a major oil supplier to the EU. Consequently, the UAE's economy would grow, strengthening its influence in the EU region.
