The Multifunctionality of a Single Morphological Structure The Opening Supplication as a Model
type: item
description: The research idea revolves around the multifunctionality of a single morphological structure, and how this multifunctionality is applied in both linguistic and literary texts. These functions are seen as a necessity to consider in all literary values in order to reveal the aesthetics of the text through which an effect is intended to be created in the recipient, due to the necessity of considering all the literary values of the text, and focusing on the expressive functions extracted from the expressive form of the text by finding a satisfactory interpretation of the nature of the distinctive situation of morphological structures.

The Relationship of Artificial Intelligence Interaction, Concurrent / Sequential Multitasking and Speaking Performance in Iraqi EFL University Students
type: item
description: Research into language learning includes interest in the influence of Artificial Intelligence Interaction (AII) and Concurrent/Sequential Multitasking (CSM) on speaking performance. AII refers to systems with intelligence similar to human intelligence, Tasks that involve multi-tasking include: reasoning, problem-solving, and natural language comprehension. Multitasking refers to the strategies used by the learner to cope with multiple list items at once, with respect to the demands placed on students by language learning as a result of other demands and distractions they experience. The goal of this study is three-fold: to determine the use of CSM and AII by Iraqi EFL university students and compare it to their speaking ability, to see if AII and CSM are related through correlation and, if so, what that correlation looks like. This study includes 200 participants who enrolled in education degrees during the 2024/2025 academic school year. Three types of tools are utilized to assess the objectives of this research project: AI Interaction Logs and Multi-Tasking Survey, and a Speaking Skills test. Following an assessment of the psychometric properties of the instruments and appropriate analyses using standard statistics, the results demonstrate that Iraqi English as a Foreign Language (EFL) College students have medium levels of AI, of Concurrent / Sequential Multitasking and of productive skills performance. Also, the results of this study demonstrate a positive relationship between Concurrent / Sequential Multitasking and AI on speaking skills performance. Conclusions, recommendations, and suggestions are then made..

The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Adulthood Education in Iraqi High Schools

description: تبحث هذه الورقة في الدور المعقّد للذكاء الاصطناعي (AI) في تعليم الكبار في المدارس الثانوية العراقية، ولا سيما في برامج التعليم المسرّع. وتسدّ الدراسة فجوةً ملحّة في البحث التربوي من خلال تناول إمكانات الاستخدام الفعّال لتقنيات الذكاء الاصطناعي في سياق تعليم الكبار ضمن بيئة دولة نامية، حيث تسود ظروف بنيوية واجتماعية-اقتصادية وثقافية خاصة. اعتمدت الدراسة منهجيتين: الاستبانة الكمية والمقابلات النوعية، وجُمعت البيانات من 250 متعلّمًا بالغًا و45 معلّمًا في مدارس ثانوية مسائية تقع في بغداد والبصرة وأربيل. وتشير النتائج إلى أنّ المتعلمين البالغين يُظهرون اتجاهات إيجابية ذات دلالة إحصائية نحو أدوات التعلم المدعومة بالذكاء الاصطناعي (المتوسط = 3.72، والانحراف المعياري = 0.84)، إلا أنّ التطبيق الفعلي ما يزال محدودًا بشدة بسبب نقص البنى التحتية الرقمية المناسبة؛ إذ إن 23% فقط من المؤسسات المشمولة بالدراسة تتوافر لديها خدمة إنترنت عالية السرعة. ويُظهر التحليل وجود علاقة إيجابية قوية بين الإلمام بأدوات الذكاء الاصطناعي ومعدلات بقاء المتعلمين (r = 0.67، p < 0.001)، ما يشير إلى أنّ إدخال أدوات الذكاء الاصطناعي في مجالات محددة من تعليم الكبار قد يؤدي إلى نتائج عالية الجودة. ومع ذلك، فإن العوائق الرئيسة—مثل عدم استقرار التيار الكهربائي، وضعف الثقافة الرقمية لدى المتعلمين من الفئة العمرية (25–45) سنة، وغياب الأطر والسياسات المتكاملة من قبل وزارة التربية العراقية—تُعيق التطور في الوقت الراهن. وتختتم الدراسة بتقديم مقترحات عملية للتطبيق التدريجي للذكاء الاصطناعي، مع التركيز على أنظمة التعلم التكيفي التي تعمل دون اتصال بالإنترنت، والتدريب المكثّف للمعلمين. وستُسهم النتائج في إثراء الأدبيات المتنامية حول تكنولوجيا التعليم في مناطق النزاع، كما تُقدَّم بوصفها معلومات قائمة على الأدلة يمكن أن تساعد صُنّاع القرار المعنيين بتحديث قطاع تعليم الكبار في العراق.

The Employment of AI Techniques and its Impact in Improving Iraqi EFL Learners’ Proficiency
type: item
description: The current research is entitled ( The Employment of AI Techniques and its Impact in Improving Iraqi EFL Learners’ Proficiency ) . It aims at studying the relation between AI and the level of scientific mastery and linguistic proficiency for Iraqi EFL learners , specifically sixth grade primary school pupils . The available evidence indicates that some Iraqi schools suffer from a phenomenon of linguistic deficiency in the subject of the English language among sixth grade primary school pupils , and this occurs due to the lack of scientific AI employment and modern techniques by most of teachers . On this basis, the researcher puts forward his hypothesis that there exists a phenomenon of linguistic deficiency among sixth-grade primary school pupils in the English language subject in both governmental and private primary schools . In order to verify the validity of the above hypothesis, the researcher conducted a field case study that included selecting a group of schools in Babylon Governorate as a sample for conducting the study and verifying the available data in those schools. The study included 65 primary schools distributed across the geographical area of Babylon Governorate, with 44 schools belonging to the governmental education system and 21 schools affiliated with private education system . The total number of students included in the study was 3859 students of both genders. At the end of the study, the researcher presented the most important results reached, mentioning the most important recommendations and proposals that help overcome difficulties and achieve the sustainable development goals , which are represented by supporting and increasing the scientific level for the pupils by means of adequate employment of AI techniques in improving English language skills . The research is classified into four sections . The first is an introduction , whereas the second is devoted to highlight the impact of AI in EFL learning . The third section , however , is dev…

Pragmatic Failures in AI-Mediated Pedagogy: A 2025-2026 Reddit Discourse Analysis
type: item
description: The article discusses the Pragmatic Gap of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools within the educational setting in the sense of whether or not syntactic fluency and communicative effectiveness are compatible. Reddit was selected as the main source of data since it is among the three spaces of the digital world where educators and students can engage in free and naturalistic meta-discourse concerning technology. It is a platform which presents uncooked and peer-reviewed evidence of practical failure which is usually softened in official institutional survey questionnaires. The study will get directed at pinpointing particular groups of pragmatic failure and suggest a framework of Pragmatic Calibration. It has been found that AI methodically fails at Illocutionary Sincerity and Temporal Deixis. Although AI will help in the retrieval of information, it can be very catastrophic regarding the Positive Face of the learners with the robotic over-politeness or bald-on-record correctness. The study concludes that the future of AI in education depends on achieving "Pragmatic Plasticity"—the ability to adapt tone and intent to the specific social distance of the classroom.

The Effect of Co-Teaching on Iraqi Female Advanced EFL Learners’ Writing
type: item
description: The present study examines the effects of co-teaching on advanced female EFL learners in Erbil, Iraq comparing its results to traditional single-teacher instruction. The study employed a mixed-methods quasi-experimental design to examine 41 learners at Andisheh Language Institute who received either co-taught instruction (n=21) or single-taught instruction (n=20) during a five-week period. The research used Brown’s (1991) scoring scale to evaluate writing proficiency through pre- and post-tests and collected learner perceptions through a post-intervention survey. According to the quantitative findings of the study (p=.031), the co-taught group achieved better writing results than the control group. The survey results showed that students strongly preferred co-teaching because it provided better feedback and increased their engagement and motivation and facilitated better interaction with teachers. The results of the study can be justified by research uses Vygotsky’s socio-cultural theory and Bandura’s self-efficacy framework in demonstrating how co-teaching helps solve EFL writing difficulties in Iraq and provides recommendations for developing curricula and training teachers in collaborative teaching methods.

Remembering the Machine: Artificial Intelligence, Emotional Simulation, and Human Reception in Marjorie Prime
type: item
description: This paper looks at how artificial intelligence, emotional simulation and human reactions are connected through the play Marjorie Prime by Jordan Harrison. The play presents a technology called the "Prime," which creates holograms of people based on memories of the living. Harrison explores how AI affects people emotionally and psychologically with memory, grief and identity. The study argues that AI or Primes help people deal with emotions by reflecting their hopes. It does not give an experience. Rather helps people cope. Using theories of computing, narrative identity and duplicates the play shows how human memory can be unstable. It also reveals how technology can change stories. The interactions between Marjorie, Tess Jon and AI replicas are key to understanding this. The study also looks at the ethics of using AI to recreate memories. It questions how AI-mediated memory can both ease pain and create dependencies. Marjorie Prime challenges what we think about authenticity. It suggests that human emotional attachment is more about storytelling and compassion than consciousness. The play offers a view on the role of AI in human relationships. It also explores how we preserve memories and form identities in this age. Marjorie Prime makes us think about AI and its impact on relationships. The play Marjorie Prime, by Jordan Harrison is a work. It helps us understand AI and human emotions.

Cultural Translation of English Idiomatic Expressions of Weather into Arabic with the Aid of Artificial Intelligence
type: item
description: Talking about the weather is a popular topic of conversation starter for many English speakers. Since the weather in the United Kingdom is very changeable, it is common to discuss it in everyday conversation. There is a wide range of idiomatic expressions in English concerning the weather. Such idiomatic expressions as "raining cats and dogs", "come rain or shine", and "under the weather" are culturally specific and metaphorical. This paper investigates the translation of such idiomatic expressions into Arabic and examines how Artificial intelligence can help to replicate the cultural insight of human translators. One aim of this research is to identify the linguistic, cultural and contextual difficulties in translating English weather idiomatic expressions into Arabic .In addition, another aim is to evaluate the AI –powered translation accuracy in handling the figurative meaning and cultural relevance of these idiomatic expressions. A qualitative –descriptive approach is used to analyze (20) English weather idiomatic expressions. It is concluded that translating English idiomatic expressions related to weather culturally is difficult and needs a deep understanding of both source and target cultures. Furthermore, AI-translation systems or tools prove to be a good support in identifying some common idiomatic expressions and giving paraphrased versions. But, they failed marinating the figurative meaning and cultural relevance of some idiomatic expressions where the role of human translators will remain essential to ensure clarity, accuracy and cultural equivalence.

Words whose apparent meaning is not fully understood in Arabic proverbs: An analytical study
type: item
description: Abstract: This research examines a prominent semantic phenomenon in Arabic proverbs: the failure of the literal meaning to convey the intended meaning, despite the clarity and unambiguousness of the words. The study explores the reasons for this disconnect between the apparent meaning and the intended meaning through an analytical examination of examples of Arabic proverbs whose true meaning cannot be grasped based solely on their wording. The research is based on the hypothesis that the ambiguity in these proverbs does not stem from linguistic complexity or verbal obscurity, but rather from a semantic shift from literal to figurative meaning, or from the use of metonymy, metaphor, and allegory, or from references to external stories and events whose verbal clues have been omitted for the sake of brevity. The research employs an analytical approach, analyzing the proverbs in light of linguistic interpretations and elucidating the relationship between the apparent and hidden meanings. The research concluded that the semantic ambiguity in some Arabic proverbs does not stem from the words themselves, but rather from a break in the direct link between the apparent meaning and the intended meaning.

نواكز الصّوت في قصيدة ( مستقيل) للشاعر د. مانع سعيد العتيبة
type: item
description: Phonetic anchors are among the prominent topics in phonetics, as they refer to the study of sound changes that occur in linguistic sounds when they are adjacent within the phonetic structure of a word or in the broader linguistic context. This phenomenon arises from the mutual influence between sounds, leading to the modification of phonetic features or the facilitation of pronunciation, in order to achieve phonetic harmony and ease of articulation. Phonetic anchors hold particular importance in the Arabic language due to their role in regulating pronunciation and ensuring accurate reading. Arabic poetry is rich in phonetic anchors, and in this study, we examine the poem “Mosta’qil” by the poet Mani’ Saeed Al-Otaiba, as it contains abundant material relevant to our research.

Fragments of Dystopia: The Demonic City in the Poetry of Ahmed Matar
type: item
description: Dystopia, in its simplest terms, is like the law of the brothers of Joseph: "Man is a wolf to his fellow man." Despite its diverse forms, literature has maintained its idealized image for centuries, preventing the emergence of alternative forms of the utopian city. The rhythm of this ideal city has continued to resonate across all themes, forms, and visions, from the time of Plato, who depicted the face of the perfect city, to Al-Farabi, who employed Plato's concept within an Islamic context. Many philosophers and writers have also embarked on creating imagined ideal worlds, realized through the concept of nowhere, after their dreams were severely diminished by their lived reality. This is because utopian literature seeks to prove its idealism despite the wars, killings, and chaos that humanity suffers. While the theme of the ideal city was explored in literary works, appearing as a consistent pattern of commitment, an opposing trend emerged, directing its discontent with reality and attempting to strip away its embellishments to reveal its true nature. Thus, utopia gradually faded and diminished, as it instilled "a spirit of fear and anxiety even among the proponents of the ideal world." In this way, dystopia was born from the womb of utopia, becoming a cry of protest that shook the foundations of ideal worlds.

Grammatical Causation in the Thought of Ibn Al-Warraq (d. 381 AH): An Analytical Study of his Book "ilal al-Nahw"
type: item
description: This research presents an in-depth study of the intellectual framework of one of the most prominent grammarians of the 4th Century AH, Abu al-Hasan Ibn al-Warraq (d. 381 AH), through his seminal work, "ilal al-Nahw" (The Rationales of Grammar). The significance of this study lies in uncovering the analytical methodology adopted by Ibn al-Warraq, which skillfully synthesized linguistic tradition (Sama’) with logical and rational analysis, influenced by the flourishing intellectual climate of his era. The practical chapters of this research explore Ibn al-Warraq’s philosophy in justifying grammatical rulings across various categories, including nominatives (Marfu’at), accusatives (Mansubat), genitives (Majrurat), and verbs. Special attention is given to the "Dialectical Rationale" and the "Rationale of the Rationale," through which the author demonstrated his mastery in debating the views of various grammatical schools. The study reveals Ibn al-Warraq’s methodological independence; he was not merely a transmitter of the Basran or Kufan doctrines, but rather a critical arbiter and evaluator who possessed rigorous tools of linguistic analogy (Analogy). The research concludes with several key findings, most notably that Ibn al-Warraq succeeded in transforming grammar from a set of rigid pedagogical rules into a comprehensive philosophical system. This system links grammatical inflection to semantic meaning and contextual function. Furthermore, the study highlights how the author’s background in the profession of "Warraqa" (manuscript production) enriched his work with diverse knowledge and scholarly depth, positioning his book as a vital link in the historical evolution of the principles of Arabic grammar.

Stylistic disputes and their relation to the art of epistolary writing in the Abbasid era
type: item
description: Letters in the Abbasid era began to take a new direction in composition, as several styles and methods of letter writing emerged. This study is limited to clarifying the extent of the interconnection between stylistic tendency and its relationship with the art of letter writing specifically in the Abbasid era, relying on a selected sample of letters and employing it in the research. The significance of choosing this topic lies in the abundance of ideas and trends adopted by writers of that period in crafting letters, especially those related to the Diwan al-Insha’ (Chancery Office) in the Abbasid state. During this time, a considerable number of writers appeared who tended toward diverse styles that differed somewhat from those used in the Islamic era before it and in the Umayyad era. The study ultimately reveals the stylistic approaches and their relationship to letters during the Abbasid rule

"Analysis of Selection Criteria in the Book Masarī‘ al-‘Ushshāq by Ibn al-Sarrāj al-Baghdādī (d. 316 AH(sad) A Study in Light of Electronic Digitalization
type: item
description: This study sought to reveal the role of digitization in analyzing the selection criteria adopted by Ibn al-Sarrāj in constructing his literary anthologies, through a methodological approach that combined qualitative analysis with statistical reading of the texts. The study demonstrated that literary taste constituted a fundamental basis in the process of selection, as it became evident that Ibn al-Sarrāj was keen on choosing texts of artistic and aesthetic value, whether by pioneering figures of Arabic poetry or by lesser-known poets. This indicates that Ibn al-Sarrāj possessed a critical awareness that went beyond the criterion of circulation and popularity alone. The digital analysis also showed that the criterion of fame functioned as a relatively influential factor in selection, without being absolute or decisive. The study further examined the spatial dimension of his selections, showing that Ibn al-Sarrāj relied on the diversity of geographical and cultural environments, incorporating into his work texts representing multiple regions. This reflects the breadth of his familiarity with Arab poetry across different territories, as well as a varied temporal span, and indicates that his selections were not confined to a narrow spatial or chronological framework. Digitization enabled a more precise and objective organization and analysis of these criteria, as well as the tracking of patterns of preference in selection. This made it possible to reread Maṣāriʿ al-ʿUshshāq through a scientific, data-driven approach alongside critical aesthetic judgment. The study concludes that digitization is not merely a technical tool, but rather a supportive methodological framework that contributed to deepening the understanding of selection mechanisms and revealing the artistic and cultural dimensions governing Ibn al-Sarrāj’s literary taste.

الأدب الموريسكي والألخميادو في ضوء الإنسانيات الرقمية: مقاربة تعليمية بالذكاء الاصطناعي والتعلّم الإلكتروني
type: item
description: This study examines Morisco literature as a marginalized yet significant literary and linguistic field within modern Arabic and Iberian studies, with particular emphasis on Aljamiado texts, which were written in Romance languages using Arabic script under coercive historical conditions following the fall of Granada in 1492. Despite their historical, cultural, and linguistic value, Morisco texts have largely been approached through descriptive historical frameworks, while their potential for literary analysis and pedagogical use—especially within digital learning environments—remains underexplored. The research addresses a methodological gap arising from the limited integration of e-learning technologies and artificial intelligence in the study and teaching of Morisco literature. It argues that the dominance of traditional approaches has constrained the analytical scope of Aljamiado texts and contributed to their exclusion from Arabic language curricula. In response, the study explores how digital humanities methodologies, particularly AI-assisted text analysis, can contribute to a renewed and more systematic engagement with this corpus. Adopting a descriptive-analytical approach, combined with textual and digital methodologies, the research highlights the potential of artificial intelligence to identify recurring linguistic patterns, thematic structures, and stylistic features within Aljamiado texts through corpus-based analysis. At the pedagogical level, the study demonstrates how e-learning environments can facilitate the teaching of Morisco literature by presenting texts through layered explanations, interactive resources, and adaptive learning models, while preserving their historical and cultural specificity. The study concludes that artificial intelligence should be understood not as a substitute for critical historical interpretation, but as a complementary tool that enhances scholarly inquiry and pedagogical practice. It recommends the digitization of Aljami…

Tofan Grammatical guidance according to Al-Amin Al-Mahalli (d. 673 AH) in his book Miftah Al-I'rab
type: item
description: In this research, we defined interpretation linguistically and technically. We explained that interpretation is the meaning for which grammatical structures are created, and this is achieved through grammatical analysis. We also discussed the explanations of early scholars regarding interpretation, whose focus revolved around explaining the reason, stating the cause, or finding a way out for each structure they chose. Modern scholars' explanations of interpretation are summarized by the principle of "no error and no ambiguity." We then demonstrated the expansion of research on interpretation and its inclusion in all related fields of knowledge in the Arabic language, including rhetoric and exegesis, in addition to grammar and morphology. For al-Amin al-Mahalli, interpretation was distributed across the parts of speech: interpretation in nouns, interpretation in verbs, and interpretation in particles. Finally, we pointed out the points of agreement and disagreement in the interpretation he chose for a given issue

Representations of the Other in the Poetry of Ibn Mutran al-Shashi (d. 380 AH) (An Analytical Study)
type: item
description: The concept of the Other occupies a prominent place in the humanities, and along with the concepts of "self" and "we," it represents an identity inherent in life experiences such as kinship, friendship, and neighborliness, or rivalry, conflict, and enmity, reflecting the diversity and varying nature and degree of relationships on the level of consciousness, behavior, and action. To address the discussion of the Other, its relationship with the Self is revealed politically, socially, culturally, and civilizationally, in a dialectical duality that cannot be reconciled (self-other). Either the Self prevails at the expense of the Other, or the Other is negated in favor of the Self, attempting to alter their trajectory by changing the relationships within the reality that humans experience

The Use of Religious Heritage in Contemporary Literary Texts (The Iraqi Novel as a Model) (Riyam and Kafa - The Pomegranate Tree Alone - Absent)
type: item
description: Therefore, in this study, we seek to trace the trends in the utilization of heritage to further analyze the nature of this opposition and its impact on the liberal movement. This is achieved by surveying readers of studies and analyses of scientific research that engage with heritage and its application in the contemporary context, thus contributing to enriching the critical debate surrounding this issue. Authenticity and innovation in our contemporary literary movement, and the observed use of heritage in all its forms in contemporary literary texts and works, is one of the most prominent issues that has occupied a wide space in modern Arabic literature. This dialectical relationship represents a fundamental axis in understanding the transformations and trends of contemporary literary texts. The contemporary writer does not write fromIt is not a void, but rather belongs to a heritage deeply rooted in the writer's origins and the society to which he belongs. He lives and confronts—at the same time—a volatile reality with demands that impose upon him new modes of expression. We find this utilization in some selected examples of Iraqi novels that incorporate religious heritage in all its forms, from Quranic texts to... Whether it be a biblical or biblical text, a religious or mystical figure, prayers, or religious customs and rituals practiced in a particular society or place, the text should be used explicitly or quoted. The reasons for this use, the idea the novelist wants to convey to the reader, and how it is employed—directly, symbolically, or through a persona—are all relevant. Is this use a means of conveying a specific message, or simply a habit that has been ingrained, or is it due to the prevailing social conditions during the period in which the novel was written? Since religious heritage consists of deeply rooted beliefs in the human mind and is difficult to break free from, we find that the novelist's invocation of this heritage serves to give the novel a…

Pride and Satire in the Pre-Islamic Era and Their Impact on Shaping Tribal Identity
type: item
description: This study explores the phenomenon of Pride and Satire (Al-Fakhr and Al-Hija’) in the Pre-Islamic era and their impact on shaping tribal identity, focusing on the social, cultural, and political roles of poetry in fostering belonging and solidarity among tribe members. The research aims to examine the concepts of pride and satire, the values associated with tribal identity, the social and political functions of these poetic forms, and their role in consolidating collective identity. The study shows that pride and satire functioned as complementary tools to strengthen tribal identity: pride highlighted courage, generosity, and noble lineage, while satire defined an opposing identity and established boundaries with rival tribes. Satire also played a key role in protecting the tribal entity, reinforcing internal loyalty, and preserving the tribe’s symbolic prestige. The research demonstrates that pre-Islamic poetry was not merely a form of entertainment or personal expression but a collective memory preserving values and the social history of tribes. The study concludes that pride and satire are essential tools for reinforcing identity and belonging, social values such as honor, lineage, and heroism are fundamental in shaping tribal identity, and poetry serves as a medium to transmit these values across generations. The research suggests further studies on the influence of these phenomena in later Arabic literature and their connection to contemporary cultural identity.

Body Language in the Love Poetry of the Umayyad Era's Contradictory Poets
type: item
description: The language of the body is one of the means by which poets convey their thoughts and meanings. This means is not limited to any one purpose. Because women are present in the poets' experiences as beloved, wife, sister, and daughter, and because the beloved woman is the most dominant figure in the poets' experiences, this research aims to explore the means that poets used to convey their feelings, emotions, and meanings towards the woman they were enamored with. Among these means is body language and its associated vocabulary. We will trace this language in detail according to its occurrence and identify the most frequently used terms denoting the body. The study is based on two axes: The first is the definitions of the body and love poetry, and the second is the language of the body in the love poetry of the contradictory poets. A conclusion and results are then presented. We adopted the descriptive-analytical method.

Narrative formation in the stories of (The City of Athel) by Abd Ali Al-Yousifi
type: item
description: The collection of stories (Al-Athl City) focusses on depicting political and social oppression, and embodying the needed Iraqi reality, which was formed under the weight of successive wars, starting from the Iraqi-Iran war to the American occupation in 2003. Al-Qas Abdul Ali Al-Yousfi reflects a historical stage burdened with violence, hegemony and inhumane power, and the structural rifts left behind in the infrastructure and suprior of Iraqi society. Despite the adoption of narrative techniques circulating in critical studies, it gives the place an effective semantic presence, transforming the cities of the third into symbolic spaces that reveal the depths of the characters and their psychological insights. The narrative formations combine with the plot based on the theme of war as a humanitarian tragedy that is produced by human suffering, alienation and loss of the homeland, in a narrative horizon dominated by pain, blackness and the extinguishment of life.

Epistemology in the thought of Imam Ali (peace be upon him): From philosophical theorizing to educational experimentation
type: item
description: This research aims to uncover the epistemological foundations in the thought of Imam Ali (peace be upon him) and demonstrate the possibility of transferring them from the level of philosophical theorizing to the educational field. The research adopted an analytical approach in studying the texts of the Imam (peace be upon him) found in Nahj al-Balagha to reveal the features of the epistemological structure, its sources, and its intellectual and educational dimensions. Foremost among these are reason as a tool for understanding and discernment, and revelation and the Holy Quran as the highest source of guidance and certain knowledge. This is further complemented by experience, reflection, and consideration as means of expanding human understanding and penetrating insight. The research culminates in the close relationship between knowledge and action, as knowledge—according to his epistemological conception—is not complete except by its transformation into behavior and practice.

The Identity of Islamic Thought and the Challenges of Artificial Intelligence (Sufi Thought as a Model)
type: item
description: The issue of identity, in its most precise operational sense, refers to particularity,distinctiveness, and the deep civilizational and cultural dimensions of any nation. When this concept is applied to Islamic thought, its epistemological meanings and implications acquire greater significance and sensitivity, as the subject is intrinsically connected to Islam's spiritual, faith-based, doctrinal, and legal dimensions-dimensions that are vast and not easily confined. Focusing on a specific aspect of Islamic thought, namely Islamic Sufi thought, renders the issue of identity more evident. This is because Sufism is fundamentally grounded in a living, dynamic relationship among its adherents and is primarily based on lived spiritual experience. Such characteristics bring into sharp focus the magnitude of the challenges that this form of thought faces in light of the rapid technological, digital, and virtual expansion of artificial intelligence, which is increasingly permeating various branches of the human sciences. This study does not seek to privilege one side over the other, nor does it attempt to negate either Islamic thought or artificial intelligence. Rather, it aims to propose a constructive balance that takes into account the realities of the contemporary world while preserving the core identity and experiential depth of Sufi Islamic thought.

Science fiction and its future potential between religious reality and medical visualisation -Analytical study-
type: item
description: This study aims to clarify the differences in the forensic perspective between what is related to the unseen, science fiction, genetic predictions, and real-world research, as well as to explore the future possibilities of genetic research. The study addresses four main axes, the first of which provides overviews of genetic engineering research, including the current situation and future plans, as well as accompanying perceptions. The second axis focuses on the concept of the unseen as a reference for followers of heavenly religions, including Islam, and studies materialistic and secular philosophies. The third axis deals with the overlaps between science fiction, predictions and reality, and reviews aspects of agreement and differences between them. Finally, the fourth axis examines the impact of Islamic jurisprudence now and in the future and the science of genetic engineering within the framework of the science of purposes, with the aim of providing a comprehensive Islamic legitimacy vision.
