The document discusses key aspects of Islam including its fundamental principles of faith and religious duties. It explains that Islam considers revelation, reason, and sense perception in acquiring knowledge. The main principles of faith are the oneness of God, prophethood of Muhammad, the Quran, previous prophets, angels, the day of judgment, and life after death. When one enters Islam, they are bound to fulfill religious duties like prayer, fasting, pilgrimage, charity, and jihad. The document also discusses the difference between the theoretical nature of philosophy versus the practical aims of religion, and how early Muslim scholars used Greek philosophy but replaced the term with "hikmah" which had a wider religious perspective. It provides summaries of

Based on the Holy Quran and the tradition of the Holy Prophet (PBUH), no Government or individual has any right to declare whether a person is Muslim or not. Only Allah can judge it, according to the Holy Quran. It is a universally agreed upon principle that before determining whether an individual or a group belongs to a particular species, an all-encompassing and exclusive definition of such a species is made, which acts as a touch-stone. As long as such a definition exists, it becomes quite easy to decide whether or not any particular individual or group may be counted as a member of that species

Justly Balanced Community: Concept, Principles and Aimsijtsrd
All the teachings which Islam gives and instructs are in full conformity with the human nature. They are applicable in all situations and circumstances. There is no excesses or deficiencies found in them. One who acts according to the teachings of Islam is basically acting according to what nature demands of him. Thus in this way, he is fulfilling the genuine demands of the nature on the one hand, and is simultaneously gaining the pleasure of the Lord of the universe on the other hand. The present paper deals with the explanation of how Islam and its principles steer clear of the extremes in all matters of human life. Many examples have been cited to illustrate how the teachings of Islam are free from all kinds of excesses and deficiencies. Light is also thrown on the importance of justly balanced community; its principles, aims, duties, objectives and purpose.

Usul al-Fiqh al-Islami: Source Methodology in Islamic Jurisprudence

The science of Usul al Fiqh is rightly considered to be the most important method of research ever devised
by Muslim Thought. Indeed, as the solid foundation upon which all the Islamic disciplines are based, Usul al
Fiqh not only benefited Islamic civilization but contributed to the intellectual enrichment of world civilization as a whole. It will not be out of place to note here that the methods of analogical developed within the framework of Islamic jurisprudence constituted the methodological starting-point for the establishment and construction of empiricism, which in turn is considered to be the basis of contemporary civilization.

RELIGIOUS RESOURCES FOR PEACE AND FRIENDSHIP: ISLAMIC TREND
RAMDHAN 21:AN INTERFAITH DIALOGUE ON LESSENING ENTRIES OF RADICALIZATION
The Qur’an is among the most widely read books on earth, yet it is also commonly misunderstood and misquoted. Islam’s critics say that it contains exhortations of violence against non-Muslims and a concept of war that is far more unbridled and indiscriminate than the western Just War theory.
This study is not a general overview or critique of the Islamic laws of war, which are the varied and sometimes contradictory opinions of medieval Islamic jurists ― mainly from the ninth to thirteenth centuries CE. Instead, this study analyses only the Qur’anic text itself and, by putting its verses into historical context, attempts to explain its codes of conduct in order to determine what it actually requires or permits Muslims to do in terms of the use of military force.
It concludes that the Qur’an is clear: Muslims must not undertake offensive violence and are instructed, if defensive warfare should become unavoidable, always to act within a code of ethical behavior that is closely similar to the western Just War tradition. This study attempts to dispel any misperceptions that Islam’s holy book advocates the subjugation or killing of non-Muslims and reveals that, on the contrary, its key and unequivocal concepts governing warfare are based on justice and a profound belief in the sanctity of human life.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Assignment Juz 10 (Holy Quran)
Islam:
Islam is a divine religion. It’s basic source of knowledge is revelation. Along
with revelation it considers also necessary to reason and sense perception in
the acquisition of knowledge. The fundamental principles of Islam are faith in:
• “Tauhid-Oneness of Almighty Allah
• Finality of the Prophecy of Holy the Prophet Muhammad(ﻭﺳﻠﻡ ﻋﻠﻳﻪ ﷲ ﺻﻠﻰ)
• Quran-a book revealed by Allah on his last Prophet Muhammad( ﷲ ﺻﻠﻰ
ﻭﺳﻠﻡ ﻋﻠﻳﻪ)
• All previous Prophets and their revealed books
• Angels
• The Day of Judgment
• Reward and punishment and
• Life here after” (Tahir, 2012)
When a person enters in Islam by reciting the Kalma e Tayyiba-the Muslim
confession of faith (i.e. witness of the Oneness of Almighty Allah and Prophecy
of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (ﻭﺳﻠﻢ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﷲ )ﺻﻠﻰ and having a faith in above
fundamentals then he is bound to fulfil all religious duties and obey all
commands of Almighty Allah which are known as off-shoots or practical parts
of religious doctrines: Salat-prayer, Roza-fast, Hajj-pilgrimage, Zakat/Khums
different kinds and forms of charity, Jihad-defense, Amr bil maroof wa nahi
anil munkar-to order the doing of good and to prohibit the bad. The gist of all
these religious practices is the obedience of Almighty Allah and service of the
humankind. All the aspects of human life whether they are related with this
world or with the life hereafter have been guided by religion. (M.M.Sharif,
1983) So the basic spirit of Islam, Quran, and the teachings of the Holy Prophet
(SAWW) is practical. Allama Dr. Muhammad Iqbal has described it in these
words. “Quran is a book which emphasis deed rather than idea.”(Iqbal, 1989)

Islam and Philosophy:
The nature of philosophy and philosophical thinking is theoretical and
speculative while the aim of religion is to change the attitude, behaviour and
life style of his followers and in this way to revolutionize the society. So, there
is a basic difference between the aims and objects of both philosophy and
religion. In the early centuries of Islam, Muslim scholars started the study of all
treasuries of knowledge from all over the world. They specifically put their
emphasis on the study of Greek Philosophy. Along with other ideologies,
theories, and philosophies they translated Greek Philosophy in to Arabic. They
wrote commentaries and anthologies on the writings of celebrated Greek
masters like Plato and Aristotle. In this way they contributed in these
dimensions. They:
• Introduced Greek Philosophy in Arabic language
• Described, elucidated, and explained the ideas of Plato and Aristotle
• Contributed in philosophy by criticizing the ideas of Plato and Aristotle
• Built their own philosophies and systems of thought which were
developed on the fundamentals of Islam and enriched by all other
treasuries of knowledge,
In the beginning, the Muslim scholars used the term philosophy for their
intellectual endeavours but with the passage of time they realized that the
term „philosophy‟ comparatively had a limited scope than religion. Although
the definitions of philosophy by Greek philosophers impressed them in the
beginning but they soon realized that the nature of philosophy was theoretical,
speculative, and hypothetical.
While on the other hand the temperament of religion is realistic. So, at the
early stage of their philosophical career, they understood that the word
„Philosophy‟ was not sufficient for their intellectual pursuits. They started to
use a Quranic word „Hikmah’ for their intellectual activities.
In the beginning they used the term „Philosophy‟ along with ‘Hikmah’. But
gradually they replaced the term „Philosophy‟ with a Quranic word ‘Hikmah’.
It has a wider perspective and comprehensive connotations. It encircles all
aspects of human life whether they related with this world or with the life
hereafter.
Almighty Allah has used this word approximately 118 times in Quran in
different shades. His one of the attributive names is also ‘Hakim’(the Wise).
3. Uzma Yousaf SS/2020-1418
3 Quran-Juz-10
(Al-Quran, 16:60) (There are number of verses of Holy Quran in this respect
but I have referred only one.)
Similarly, among attributive names of Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAWW) one
is also Hakim. Allah declared to Quran as the book of ‘Hikmat’(the book of
wisdom).(Al-Quran, 22:2)
Almighty Allah in Quran held the purpose of His Holy Prophet Muhammad
(SAWW) as the teaching of Book and „Hikmah’.(Al-Quran, 62:1) The main
subject of Quran is human being and the main object of all the teachings of
Islam is the betterment and welfare of humankind. What is ‘Hikmah’? Almighty
Allah has described it as the sum of all good.
“He grants wisdom to whom he pleases, and whoever is granted wisdom, he
indeed is given a great good…”. (M.H. Shakir)
So, with this religious perspective and with these comprehensive and
multidimensional connotations the term „Hikmah’ was most suitable for
Muslim thinkers. Consequently, it took the way in Muslim thought all over the
centuries. Dr Syed Hossein Nasr has pointed out another aspect that the term
„Philosophy‟ became more alien after the renaissance in the West. After
renaissance the West put its emphasis on reason and sense perception only. A
movement of negation of metaphysics was also instituted in the West. Now
the negation of religion was a new job for reason and sense perception. In this
way an unbridgeable gulf developed between religion and philosophy on one
hand and between religion and science on the other hand. So, this trend of the
Western scholars sounded a belief in Muslim thinkers of this age that the
„term Philosophy‟ was not suitable for their intellectual activities and ‘Hikmah’
is an only proper term to reflect the essence of their endeavours. (Nasr, 2002)

In the Name of Allah, The Beneficent, The Merciful
Surah Al-Anfal contains seventy-five verses. This Surah has been revealed in
Medina, (except its six verses). Its revelation occurred after the revelation of
Surah Al-Baqarah.
There are some lessons in this Surah concerning the history of Divine prophets

Most of the verses of this Surah are about the Battle of Badr. It was the first
war of Muslims against the disbelievers. This war happened after thirteen
years of Muslims’ patience. In this war they enjoyed the Divine helps and

Summary of Surah Tawbah
This Surah outlines the final rulings on the permanent relations between the
Muslim community and the outside world, as explained in our commentary on
its various passages. Hence, we have to refer to its latest statements since
these represent the final say on these relations.
These statements must not be restricted or narrowed down in their
applicability on the basis of earlier statements and rulings, which we described
as provisional. In doing so, we have relied on the chronological order of the
revelation of these verses and statements, and on the progress of the Islamic
movement at the time of the Prophet, as well as the events marking that
progress.
We have also been guided by our understanding of the nature of the Islamic
message and its method of action which we have explained in our presentation
of the surah and our commentary on its verses. This method of action is only
understood by those who deal with this faith of Islam as a movement striving
to establish itself in human life.
As we have explained, the goal of that striving is to liberate mankind from
submission to others so that they submit to God alone. There is a wide gap
between an understanding based on active striving and one based on
academic study which is bound to ignore action. The first type of
understanding looks at Islam as it conducts its direct confrontation with the
system of jāhiliyyah, taking one step after another and moving from one stage
to the next. It also looks at it as it proclaims its legislation to deal with the
changing situation in its confrontation.
Moreover, these final laws and verdicts outlined in this last Surah were
actually revealed when the general situation of the Muslim community and the
world around it required such legislation. Prior to that, when the situation
required different rulings, these were given in earlier Surahs to serve as
provisional rulings.

When a new Muslim community emerges again and starts to strive for the
establishment of this faith in human life, it may be appropriate for this

community to apply the provisional rulings, provided that it remains well
aware that these are only provisional. It should also be aware that it must
strive to reach the stage when only the final rulings govern its relations with
the world around it. God will certainly help that community and guide it on its
way.
