This document summarizes the challenges and processes involved in co-translating a religious poem by Emirati poet Ousha al Suwaidi from Arabic to English. It involved negotiating appropriate terminology and form through a network of Emirati actors. While an initial translation was produced, further consultation was advised. Issues around avoiding misrepresentation, respecting cultural and religious norms, and gaining necessary approvals from copyright holders and key figures emerged. The need for ongoing refinement through Emirati networks and specialists was highlighted to ensure a faithful yet accessible transmission of the original work.

This book analyzes certain social and musical aspects of hip hop in various African countries through contributions from thirteen international scholars. It discusses how hip hop emerged as a social movement in the 1980s through break dancing and later became a musical genre as the African hip hop industry developed in the 1990s. The chapters examine hip hop's development in individual countries, solo artists, and its fusions with other genres. While providing historical and qualitative information on African hip hop, the book does not deeply analyze issues of race and identity explored in other hip hop literature.

The Eminence of Poetic Arabic Language: Lamiyyat Al Arab of Ash-Shanfara Exam...Al Baha University
إن أهمية اللغة العربية تعود إلى كونها واحدة من أكثر اللغات وضوحاً في تألقها وقدرتها المتكررة على التكيف مع عدد لا يحصى من العلوم والمعارف الأخرى، وصلت اللغة العربية إلى الإبداع والأصالة في مختلف مجالات الأدب المختلفة التي يكون فيها الشعر أعظم ما يكون.

The significance of the Arabic language holds back from its being one of the most explicit languages in its brilliance and its repeated ability to adapt to countless other sciences and knowledge. The Arabic language has reached creativity and originality in different fields of literature in which the greatest is poetry.

This document provides a summary of Palestinian poet Mahmud Darwish's life and significance. It discusses how Darwish experienced the Nakba as a child, grew up under Israeli military rule, and went into exile in Lebanon. As a major Palestinian intellectual, Darwish helped reconstruct Palestinian national identity and played a key role in drafting the 1988 Palestinian Declaration of Independence, which called for a two-state solution. Darwish was a hugely popular and influential poet who gave voice to the Palestinian experience through his works. The passing of Darwish may mark the end of an era of evolving Palestinian aspirations toward a more tolerant and compromising resolution to the conflict.

This document discusses alternatives to traditional load-bearing and non-load bearing walls for construction. It describes compressed agricultural fiber (straw) walls, insulated concrete walls, and rammed earth walls as sustainable alternatives. Compressed agricultural fiber walls are made from straw, which is fire and pest resistant as well as biodegradable. Insulated concrete walls use expanded polystyrene forms filled with concrete and rebar. Rammed earth walls are constructed by compacting local soil, cement, and sand into forms to create very thick, thermally massive walls. The document encourages exploring sustainable building materials and techniques to address global housing needs and environmental challenges.

الوطن في شعر شعراء المملكة العربية السعودية: عبد السلام هاشم حافظ نموذج الشاع...Al Baha University
ملخص:
الشعر العربي الفصيح هو أحد اهم المرتكزات الادبية لجميع انواع الأدب في جميع البلدان والأقاليم العربية منذ عصر ما قبل الإسلام. هذه الدراسة عبارة عن محاولة لإلقاء الضوء على بعض الجوانب الأدبية للشعر العربي السعودي الحديث مع التركيز على مفهوم الوطن كتوضيح لمكانة الشعر العربي السعودي الحديث في إشارة خاصة للشاعر السعودي المعاصر عبد السلام هاشم حافظ.
قد يكون من البديهي أن تطور الشعر العربي في العصر الحالي بين الشعراء والكتاب والنقاد العرب هو مقياس إيجابي، ومن الطبيعي أن يعمم الأمر والسياق نفسه عن الشعر السعودي المعاصر من حيث كونه جزء من الشعر العربي الواسع ومتطابقاً معه نظرًا لأنه يعتبر بطبيعة الحال مقياساً أساسياً ومتصل بالشعر العربي، من خلال ذلك كله يسعى الباحث إلى توضيح فِكرُ الشاعر عبد السلام هاشم حافظ في تصوير مدينته المجيدة كممثل لعشقه للوطن الكبير - المملكة العربية السعودية.
تبدأ الدراسة بمقدمة موجزة عن الشعر العربي ووسيطه الأساسي المتمثل في اللغة العربية المجيدة، ثم تمضي قدماً تحليلياً لاستعراض مكانة وَمَلَكَةُ الشاعر السعودي عبد السلام هاشم حافظ، بعد ذلك، تجسد الدراسة موقفاً تحليلياً وناقداً للأربعة الابيات الأولى من قصيدة حافظ، التي تحمل عنوان ’الشوق، يا وطني‘ ، مع التركيز على مفهوم الوطن كونه الموضوع الرئيس في هذه الدراسة، وتنتهي الدراسة بالتوصيات، ان جدت، ثم خاتمة موجزة.
ABSTRACT:
Classical Arabic poetry is the core of all categories of literature in all Arabic lands, territories, and realms since the age of pre-Islam. This study is an attempt to shed light on some literary facets of modern Saudi Arabic poetry focusing on the concept of homeland as an illustration of the standing of modern Saudi Arabic poetry with a particular indication to a contemporary Saudi poet, Abdus-Salam Hashem Hafeth. It can be right that the progress of Arabic poetry in the present age, among Arab poets, writers, and critics has a positive measure. It is true to generalize that the same would be identical to current innovative Saudi poetry given that it is naturally considered a principal, commanding, and uninterrupted measure of Arabic poetry. The researcher endeavors to illustrate the poet's intellectuality in depicting his glorious city as a representative of his adoration for the big home - the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The study commences with a concise introduction. Then, it analytically moves ahead to inspect the noteworthy Saudi poet – Abdus-Salam Hashem Hafeth. After that, the study portrays a critical-analytical attitude to the first four-verse lines of the poem of Hafeth, ‘Nostalgia, Oh my Home’, focusing on the concept of home as its principal theme. In conclusion, the study ends with a concise assumption and recommendations.

Overall, the document aims to explore how these 5 themes of music impact cultural attitudes and how music can be used to advocate for social issues.
1) The document analyzes how hip-hop culture has spread globally through a study interviewing 35 hip-hop enthusiasts between the ages of mid-teens to mid-thirties over two months.
2) It finds that hip-hop culture has been appropriated globally through elements like music, dress, and dance, but has also been adapted to local cultures in a process called glocalization.
3) Interviewees discussed the tensions between appropriating hip-hop authentically and adapting it for commercial purposes, and how notions of authenticity have changed over time and place.

Hip-hop began in the South Bronx in 1973 as a way for disaffected youth to channel their frustrations into art rather than violence. DJ Kool Herc pioneered extending breakbeats using two turntables, sparking the hip-hop revolution. Cornell University has the largest collection of hip-hop artifacts and recordings in the world and works to document hip-hop's history from its originators. Hip-hop grew from its roots in the Bronx to become a global phenomenon, adapting to local cultures worldwide and bringing more people together across differences than any politicians.

How have Muslim societies historically looked at such questions
and how have their attitudes changed in the media age? What is the truth
about the much publicized “music controversy” in Islam? These are some of the
questions explored in this book. feU..™
To get answers, this book goes to original source books in Arabic, many of them
brought to light for the first time in the English language It quotes extensively from
Qur’an and Hadith scholars; jurists from all schools of Islamic Law, both Sunn
and Shiah; and Sufi masters. It .examines the impact of colonialism and the media
revolution on the attitudes of Muslim societies regarding music. It also subjects the
works of Orientalists to a scrutiny that was overdue.
The Sufis characterized sama' (Sufi spiritual singing) as a slippery stone, thereby
vividly highlighting the dangers associated with this enterprise and emphasizing the
need for caution. Combining historic, cultural, and jurisprudential perspectives this
book brings the truth of that metaphor into sharp relief.
More than six hundred references and more than a hundred biographical notes on
the authorities quoted add to the value of a discussion that is comprehensive wit
being boring, and detailed without being confusing. Uns book has left no s o
unturned in its examination of the slippery stone.

Rap gives voice to every culture that produces and circulates it, not just African Americans. As a new force, rap levels the playing field, opening doors to new cultural players, and ripens for new corporate snakes to pounce on.

Hip-hop originated in the Bronx, New York in the 1970s. It was pioneered by DJs like DJ Kool Herc who isolated instrumental breaks from funk songs to create rhythmic backing for MCs to rap over. Early MCs introduced DJs and kept crowds engaged before developing more stylized rapping. By the late 1980s, hip-hop had become a mainstream commercial genre with subgenres like gangsta rap emerging. Today, hip-hop has a diverse global audience and is one of the most popular music genres, though some perceive its influence negatively.
Hip hop music originated in the 1970s at a birthday party in the Bronx, New York. DJs would play different pieces of music together and add rapping, which is rhythmic speaking over the music. Hip hop served as an alternative to disco and emphasized reality and community. It provided African Americans an artistic outlet and way to tell stories. Hip hop has evolved from just music to an entire lifestyle and continues to impact communities worldwide.

Rap music originated in the Bronx in the 1970s as a means of expression for disenfranchised African American youth. DJ Kool Herc began playing instrumental beats for longer periods to allow for extended breakdancing. This helped establish rap's roots in African oral traditions of call-and-response. Rap grew more mainstream with the Sugarhill Gang's "Rapper's Delight" in 1979 and Run DMC's hits in the 1980s. Rap addressed social and economic issues facing urban communities and helped give a voice to these populations, though some lyrics were controversial and censorship attempts were made. Rap continues to be a reflection of and outlet for urban communities today.

German, Saudi rappers
spread ‘Jeddah Love’
and ‘Hip-Hop passion’
By Roberta Fedele
Saudi Gazette
JEDDAH — Hip-hop passion
swept Jeddah for a night as German and Saudi rappers turned in
a mind-blowing performance at
the residence of German Consul
General Rolf Theodor Schuster on
Wednesday (January 30).
Organized by the German Consulate General in cooperation with
Universal Legends Entertainment,
this cross-cultural “Jeddah Hip
Hop Jam” event featured renowned
German Singer and Producer Max
Herre and Saudi Rapper ‘Qusai’ or
“QUSAI aka Don Legend the Kamelion” accompanied by promising local hip-hop crews “J-FAM”
and “Run Junction.”
A wide range of emotions, a
common concern for the latest
socio-political developments in
the region and original themes associated to the Arabic and Muslim
culture were channeled through
the artists’ musical pieces.
Apart from allowing a deeper
understanding of the German hiphop tradition, somewhat influenced
by the Middle East’s political scenario, the concert represented a
rare opportunity to acknowledge
Saudi artists’ unexpected level of
maturity and capacity to mirror
their specific socio-cultural context without proposing stereotypical hip-hop leitmotifs.
Live performances were preceded by a three-day workshop
involving around 60 local young
rappers and producers. These
artists had the unique chance to
personally meet each other and
share experiences with prominent
singers like Herre and Qusai, the
Saudi professional rapper, who cohosted MTV Arabia’s Hip Hop Na
music competition in 2007, hosted
the two latest editions of Arabs
Got Talent and won the epithet of
Middle East’s Hip-Hop Ambassador.
The context of the workshop
brought about an exceptional cooperation between Qusai, Herre’
and J-FAM who recorded a song
that was released in exclusive preview during the concert.
Energy filled the stage with a
great opening by Run Junction and
J-FAM, two Jeddah-based crews
who paid a beautiful musical tribute to Jeddah and created the right
atmosphere to welcome on stage
Herre, a singer boasting 20 years
experience in the German hip-hop
scene.
After rising to fame in the 90s
as a member of the group Freundeskreis, Herre climbed German
and Swiss charts in 2012 with his
album “Halo Welt” (Hello World)

and presented in Jeddah some of
his most famous pieces including
“Aufruhr” (Freedom Time), a song
that he conceived in the climate of
the Arab Spring.
Herre said: “I find inspiration
in personal experiences and the society that surrounds me. The social
consciousness demonstrated in
these years by young Arab citizens
who took action to defend their
rights was a great stimulus for my
creativity.
“My music finds its root in the
hip-hop but also embraces elements of reggae, soul, funk, indie
and jazz. I like to experiment and I
truly believe that music is an ideal
tool to channel one’s emotions.
Unfortunately, I still perceive
sometimes a sort of prejudice and
stereotype surrounding the hiphop. This musical genre is too of-

ten labeled as aggressive without
any knowledge of its roots, lyrical
power and positive vibrations.”
Herre, who was also hosted by
Big Hass’s hip-hop radio show on
Mix FM KSA, was impressed by
the potential and variety expressed
by the regional hip-hop scene and
encouraged Saudi rappers to come
out with their original stories.
He said: “I always tell young
talents to talk about their lives and
experiences exploiting the lyrical
potentialities of their native language instead of imitating American rappers. Another determining
factor concerns interaction. Before competing it is important to
be united through a common networking platform. It’s fundamental to go on the Internet, search for
other rap crews from the region,
country or town and exploit any
networking occasion.”
After Herre, the 34-yearsold Saudi star Qusai entertained
a crowd of enthusiastic fans interpreting some of his most celebrated hits in English and Arabic.
Particularly touching were his interpretations of “Mother,” a poetic
homage to women and “Change,”
a song from his 2012 album “The
Inevitable Change” referring to
the period of the Arab Spring or
the real “New Millennium,” as he
calls it.
Qusai, who uses his words and
the microphone to exalt his own
Muslim and Arabic culture and to
give voice to the aspirations of his
generation, explained the concept
behind his third and latest album
during a recent and beautiful interview for the famous American
Magazine Rolling Stones.
“I believe the millennium is
the true change that started in 2011
when my Arabic people woke up
and started to express themselves.
And change is certain: It happened, it’s happening, and it will
happen. It’s inevitable.”
