Imagining Dystopia in The “Raf al-yawm”: The Ordeal and the Gift as a Dialectical Framework
type: item
description: This study examines the duality of boon and ordeal in the novel Raf al-Yawm through an analytical reading that situates the text within the framework of contemporary dystopian literature. It explores how technological advancement and automated organization are initially represented as an apparent boon that promises stability and comfort, only to reveal themselves as an existential ordeal leading to human alienation and the erosion of individual identity. The study foregrounds the problem of identity under the dominance of the technological system, which imposes standardized modes of living and thinking, resulting in the dissolution of the individual within a closed, mechanized structure. It also addresses the existential conflict experienced by the protagonist between conformity to an orderly world devoid of human meaning and a longing for human values threatened with extinction. The study concludes that the novel offers a critical discourse on contemporary reality through the projection of an imagined future, reopening fundamental questions of freedom, identity, and existence in a world governed by the machine

Communication and Persuasion Foundations Between Children and Advertising Images: A Psycholinguistic Semiotic Study
type: item
description: This study examines children’s comprehension of the persuasive intent of advertising images and their perception of the visual cues of these images during their early childhood. It observes stimuli and factors which influence their interpretation of advertisements to identify guidelines for advertisements design while considering that children at this stage have not yet acquired reading skills of written discourse. The study investigates whether children can properly process and grasp the intended message of an advertisement through imagery, on what elements they rely in their comprehension, and what features of the advertisement image attract their attention the most. Thus, the research is organized into a theoretical section and an applied section employing a mixed approach descriptive-analytical and qualitative methodology. The findings indicate that 60% of young children can fully or partially comprehend the intent of advertising images, being mainly impacted in their comprehension by the characters and their bodily movements, while toys and cartoon figures constitute the most influential visual stimulus. Ultimately, the study recommends incorporating educational material into school curricula to teach children how to understand, interpret and critically engage with advertisements. It also emphasizes avoiding the exploitation of children’s exposure to advertising images for commercial profit-driven purposes devoid of meaningful content or beneficial awareness. Moreover, it recommends embedding noble goals within visual advertising content by conveying educational messages that reinforce Islamic values and virtuous ethical principles.

Employing the K-Means Algorithm to Detect Regular Rules in the Structures of Infinitives of Three-Letter Verbs
type: item
description: The study aimed to investigate the extent of regularity in the structures of infinitives of three-letter root verbs within consistent rules, utilizing the K-Means algorithm, a machine learning technique designed to cluster inputs into homogeneous groups. To achieve the study’s objective, a sample of 2,086 three-letter root verbs was collected, and their features were extracted from the “Dictionary of Three-Letter Verbs in Arabic”. The researcher adopted a descriptive-Inductive approach by describing and encoding the input features prior to processing, followed by an analysis of the results yielded by the algorithm. The study concluded with several findings, most notably: the identification of thirteen (23) consistent rules within the examined sample; the infinitive pattern "Fa'l" accounted for the largest share, comprising eleven (19) of these rules; and the demonstration of the significant influence of the Morphological Features on rule formulation. Based on these findings, the study offered key recommendations, including the necessity of separating feature values containing multiple possibilities to enhance rule regularity, and leveraging computational power to manage the multitude of detailed rules that exceed human cognitive capacity.

The Impact of Green Leadership Practices in Public Secondary Schools in Madinah on Enhancing Sustainable Environmental Practices
type: item
description: The study examined the relationship between green leadership practices in public secondary schools in Al-Madinah Al-Munawwarah and the promotion of sustainable environmental practices, in line with the national commitment to educational sustainability. A descriptive correlational design was employed, and a questionnaire was administered to a sample of 100 male and female school principals. The instrument measured five dimensions of green leadership: awareness, resource management, participation, professional development, and strategic leadership, alongside the level of sustainable environmental practices. The findings indicated that green leadership practices were implemented at a relatively high level. Sustainability awareness and the engagement of teachers and students were the most prominent dimensions, whereas resource management, professional development, and strategic leadership were applied at a moderate level. Sustainable environmental practices were also reported at a high level, particularly in energy conservation and awareness campaigns, while recycling and the use of green technologies were less evident. The results revealed a strong, statistically significant positive effect of green leadership on enhancing sustainable environmental practices. Significant differences were found in favor of principals of boys’ schools, those with longer administrative experience, and those holding advanced academic qualifications. The study recommends strengthening leadership preparation and training programs and providing adequate resources to support sustainability in schools.

Saudi university faculty members' perceptions of integrating Metaverse-based virtual learning environments into their teaching practice
type: item
description: This study aimed to identify the perceptions of faculty members at Saudi universities regarding the integration of Metaverse-based virtual learning environments into their teaching practices. It explored the expected educational benefits, the challenges hindering their implementation, and the necessary proposals and solutions for their integration into university education. A descriptive quantitative approach was used, employing a questionnaire consisting of three sections (benefits, challenges, and proposals and solutions). The questionnaire was administered to a stratified random sample of (482) faculty members from five Saudi universities. The findings revealed positive attitudes toward integrating Metaverse environments; the most prominent "benefits" included enhancing the quality of teaching practices and increasing interaction and motivation, while the main "challenges" were related to limited technical expertise, insufficient awareness, and time constraints. The "proposed solutions" focused on providing ready-made digital resources and activating supportive partnerships, with priority given to practical and immediate solutions. The results showed no statistically significant differences in faculty members' evaluation of the integration of Metaverse into their teaching practices based on gender. However, statistically significant differences were found based on the variables of academic rank, academic specialization, university affiliation, English proficiency level, and years of experience. The study recommended enhancing training for faculty members in Saudi universities, providing them with digital resources, and considering the differences between faculty members' universities and academic specializations when developing strategies for integrating Metaverse environments into their teaching practices

Enabling Artificial Intelligence to Enhance Smart Governance and Improve the Efficiency of Higher Education Management
type: item
description: Abstract: This study examines the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) as an enabler of smart governance and its contribution to improving the efficiency and innovation of higher education management in emerging Saudi universities, using Shaqra University as a case study. A descriptive survey design was employed. Data were collected from 371 academic and administrative staff through a validated questionnaire. The overall reliability of the instrument was acceptable (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.798).Findings indicate that the Smart Governance dimension scored a moderate level with an overall mean of 2.17/3 (72.33%). The highest-rated aspects were more accurate academic performance monitoring (2.44; 81.33%) and improved academic assessment (2.43; 81.00%), whereas the lowest-rated aspect was enhancing collaboration between faculty and administration (1.68; 56.00%). The AI Support for Smart Governance dimension also reflected a moderate level with an overall mean of 2.226/3 (74.20%), with stronger perceptions regarding data analytics for decision-making and student performance tracking with feedback (2.28; 76.00%), but relatively lower perceptions for monitoring academic development of students and teachers (2.15; 71.67%). The AI-Driven Innovation in Education Management dimension achieved a moderate level with an overall mean of 2.037/3 (67.90%): respondents rated developing innovative teaching strategies highly (2.56; 85.33%), while institutional adaptability to future changes was rated low (1.28; 42.67%).The study recommends moving from fragmented adoption to integrated institutional implementation by strengthening digital infrastructure and data governance, expanding professional training, and deploying learning analytics and interactive AI applications aligned with Saudi Vision 2030.

Feminist Struggles and Identity in Rowaida Al-Haj’s Then You Turned to the Shade: A Thematic and Artistic Study
type: item
description: This study aims to examine the manifestations of conflict in feminist poetry through the Diwan Then I Turned to the Shade by the Sudanese poet Rawda Al-Haj, adopting a thematic and artistic approach that reveals the semantic and aesthetic structures of the poetic texts. The study traces the manifestations of conflict in both its external dimension—represented by confrontation with society and patriarchal authority—and its internal dimension, which reflects the self’s struggle with its constraints and aspirations. It also elucidates how language, symbolism, and myth contribute to shaping a distinctive feminine vision. Furthermore, the study focuses on the artistic structure of the poems, including rhythm and imagery, which enhances the intensity and depth of the poetic experience. The study concludes that Then I Turned to the Shade constitutes a poetic discourse imbued with feminist awareness of national and social issues, seeking to affirm women’s presence within the sphere of conflict, rejecting the marginalization of their role, and rearticulating their relationship with the Other through a rich poetic language charged with emotional tension. Accordingly, the Diwan sheds light on a significant aspect of the development of contemporary Arab feminist poetry and provides women with a creative space to articulate their identity and struggles within a refined artistic context.

The Ruling on Selling Animals by Weight While Alive: A Comparative Jurisprudential Study
type: item
description: This study investigates a contemporary jurisprudential issue concerning the ruling on selling animals whose meat is lawful to eat while alive and determining their price by weight. The research aims to clarify the relationship between this type of sale and the traditional jazāf (bulk) sale, as well as to examine the jurists’ differing opinions on the permissibility of selling live animals by weight. The study adopts an inductive-analytical methodology, by tracing and analyzing the views of classical jurists and re-examining them in light of current commercial practices. The findings reveal that this issue is relatively modern, as classical jurists did not explicitly address the sale of live animals by weight—particularly livestock—but rather discussed selling them in bulk. The study further concludes that the most precise definition of sale (bayʿ) is that it is “a contract of exchange concerning non-utilitarian items and non-pleasurable benefits, involving a bargained compensation other than gold or silver.” The research ultimately affirms that the preponderant opinion supports the permissibility of selling live animals by weight, based on valid legal evidence consistent with the principles of fairness, transparency, and the prevention of gharar (uncertainty), as detailed throughout the study.

A comprehensive social survey was conducted with all adolescents with motor disabilities enrolled at the Gali Center at Umm Al-Qura University (N = 69), representing both males and females. Data were collected using two standardized instruments: the Family Resilience Scale and the Adaptation to Disability Scale. Findings indicated high family resilience across all its dimensions, with the dimension of (Family Belief Systems) ranking first, followed by (Family Organizational Processes) second, and (Communication and Problem-Solving Processes) third. The level of adaptation to disability also appeared high across all dimensions, with (Expansion) ranking first, followed by (Transformation) second, (Containment) third, and (Minimization) fourth. Furthermore, the results revealed a statistically significant correlation between family resilience and adaptation to disability. The study recommends incorporating the concepts of family resilience and adaptation to disability into the training curricula of social workers specializing in motor disabilities, designing family programs that promote positive belief systems, enhance family organizational processes, and support effective family communication to foster the adaptation and integration of adolescents with motor disabilities.

"Exploring the Potential for sustainable Curative Tourism Development in Hail, Saudi Arabia: Opportunities and Challenges"
type: item
description: Curative tourism has recently become one of the promising development sectors in arid regions, yet its potential still remains under-investigated in the Hail region of Saudi Arabia, despite its unique combination of climatic and natural therapeutic resources. The prevailing literature misses an integral assessment that combines both climatic comfort indices and the spatial distribution of natural curative assets. This paper tends to assess the suitability of Hail for curative tourism by considering climatic comfort through the Tourism Climate Index, in addition to the analysis of the therapeutic value of local natural resources represented by mineral-rich soils, hot springs, and geomorphological features. A mixed-methods approach was adopted, combining quantitative climatic data (1990-2023) with qualitative insights from local stakeholders and secondary reports. Accordingly, results reflect that Hail enjoys high levels of climatic comfort during extensive periods of the year, mainly during winter and spring, suitable for various types of curative and health tourism activities. Results also highlighted a number of promising therapeutic assets that are still underutilized due to the limited infrastructure and weak strategic planning. Ultimately, the study concludes with policy-oriented recommendations to enhance curative tourism development in Hail through focusing on spatial planning, environmental management, and destination branding in alignment with Saudi Vision 2030.

The Mediation Role of Intellectual Capital Between Institutional Efficiency and the Quality of University Performance in Qassim University
type: item
description: This study aims to explore the mediation role of intellectual capital by analyzing the institutional efficiency and the quality of academic performance at Qassim University. The study used a descriptive–analytical research method, structured questionnaire was used as the primary instrument for data collection, and only 202 faculty members were included. The research Model and Hypothesis were examined by using Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) through SmartPLS version 4.1.1. The results supported the mediating role of intellectual capital in the relationship between institutional efficiency and the quality of academic performance, as improving institutional efficiency not only strengthens organizational processes but also fosters the development of intellectual capital, ultimately leading to higher academic performance. Accordingly, the study recommends that university leaders prioritize strategic investments in faculty development through advancement of knowledge management systems and the enhancement of relational capital with internal and external stakeholders. Furthermore, institutions should reform with intellectual capital development strategies to improve academic performance quality.

Samples of Ibn Al-Jabban’s Linguistic Views As Transmitted in “Al-Majmuʿ Al-Mughith” by Al-Madini
type: item
description: This research examines the linguistic contributions of Abu Mansur Muhammad Ibn Al-Jabban, a scholar whose recognition has been less pronounced compared to several of his contemporaries. The core objective is to identify and delineate specific instances of his linguistic views, as transmitted through Abu Musa Al-Madini’s book “Al-Majmuʿ Al-Mughith Fī Gharib Al-Qurʾan Wa Al-Hadith”, to illuminate and analyze these samples through a systematic scholarly methodology, and to clarify the impact and significance of Ibn Al-Jabban’s perspectives within the broader context of linguistic scholarship. Given the nature of this topic, the research adopts descriptive, analytical, and comparative methodologies. The findings demonstrate, inter alia, Ibn Al-Jabban’s consistent reliance on grammatical evidence - particularly aural transmission (Sama`) - when addressing morphological matters. Furthermore, the diverse cultural environments of Rayy, Isfahan, and Baghdad demonstrably shaped his linguistic approach that combined rigorous auditory verification with a discernible receptivity toward loanwords and external linguistic influences. The study further establishes Ibn Al-Jabban’s demonstrable command of and familiarity with specific non-Arabic languages.

description: This research aims to discuss the issue of Imam Saud bin Abdulaziz preventing the "Shami Mahaml" from entering the Two Holy Mosques in 1805, and the issue of his disposal of the funds and possessions of "Al-hodjra Annabawia" after his control of Medina in 1807, and the study worked to establish and confirm the objective historical truth in the two issues, far from Ottoman propaganda and the claims of the enemies of "Addaawa Al-islahia" which they spread to achieve suspicious political and religious goals. To achieve these objectives, the study followed the descriptive historical approach based on collecting historical material from its sources and references, then arranging and composing it, and then on the analytical approach to determine the nature of this propaganda and respond to it by stating the clear historical truth. The study reached a number of important conclusions, including that the incident of preventing the "Shami Mahaml" from entering the Two Holy Mosques in 1805 was linked to the political and religious tension that existed between the Saudi state and the Ottoman state after the Saudis imposed their control over the Hijaz region. Among them is that Imam Saud bin Abdul Aziz’s disposal of the funds and possessions of "Al-hodjra Annabawia" in 1807 was after a clear "fatwa" from the scholars of the four schools of Islamic jurisprudence regarding the possibility of benefiting from them to meet some of the needs of Muslims in Madina and other Islamic regions.

The Experiences of Graduate Students in the Department of Education at the Islamic University of Madinah in Conducting Qualitative Research: A Qualitative Study
type: item
description: This study aims to explore graduate students’ perceptions of qualitative research concepts and the challenges of its application in the Department of Education at the Islamic University of Madinah. The researchers employed a phenomenological qualitative approach, conducting seven in-depth interviews with doctoral students specializing in Curriculum and Instruction in the Department of Education. The findings revealed that the students have a good understanding of several fundamental principles of qualitative research, such as the nature of qualitative data and the importance of interaction between the researcher and the participants. However, they experience difficulty in distinguishing between the concepts of validity, reliability, and objectivity as applied in quantitative research. In addition, the results indicated that the students possess partial awareness of the philosophical foundations underlying qualitative research, without this awareness being fully developed within a coherent theoretical and methodological framework. Furthermore, the findings demonstrated the presence of prominent challenges faced by students during the conduct of qualitative research, most notably the difficulty of selecting the most appropriate qualitative approach due to the multiplicity of approaches and their conceptual overlap, as well as challenges related to data collection, such as limited access to participants, consent procedures, time constraints, and lack of cooperation from certain institutions.

Humility in Surah Al-Hajj
type: item
description: This research aimed to explain and analyze the concept of humility in the context of the verses of Surah Al-Hajj. The researcher used the descriptive analytical method. The importance of the research emerged in that it deals with this concept, which represents the heart's goal that links outward rituals with the inner reality of faith. The research defined humility as a state of faith that combines several meanings, so it is not limited to mere reverence, but includes perfect submission and surrender to God and complete tranquility and certainty in Him. It is a higher degree than reverence and is the fruit of repentance and continuous return to God. The research dealt with the two places where the state of humility is mentioned in Surah Al-Hajj. The first place: { give glad tidings to the Mukhbitūn(those who obey Allāh with humility and are humble from among the true believers of Islāmic Monotheism} [Al-Hajj 34. ), , came in the context of rituals to show that humility is the spirit and reality of worship. The verses also clarified the characteristics of these humble believers, describing them as “Whose hearts are filled with fear when Allāh is mentioned and Aṣ-Ṣābirūn[who patiently bear whatever may befall them (of calamities)]; and who perform Aṣ-Ṣalāt (Iqāmat-aṣ-Ṣalāt), and who spend (in Allāh’s Cause) out of what We have provided them.

type: item
description: The study aimed to identify the requirements necessary for employing artificial intelligence (AI) in the professional practice of social workers in the medical field in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and to examine whether differences exist in these requirements based on selected demographic variables. The study employed a descriptive survey method and collected data through a questionnaire consisting of six dimensions: legislative, administrative and institutional, technical, skill-related, professional, and cultural and social requirements. The sample included 268 male and female social workers employed in government medical institutions in Makkah and Jeddah. The results revealed a high level of need to provide the requirements necessary for employing AI in social work practice within the medical field, both overall and across all six dimensions. Statistically significant differences were found between participants’ responses according to specialization, favoring those majoring in social work, while no significant differences were observed based on city, gender, educational qualification, or years of experience. The study recommended, among other actions, developing a regulatory framework for the use of AI in medical social work and updating the Policies and Procedures Manual for Social Service Departments issued by the Ministry of Health to include a code of ethics for the professional use of AI in health-related social practice.

Technological Convergence in Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) In Saudi Arabia: A Mixed-Method Study
type: item
description: This paper reports a sequential mixed-method study on the perspectives' of teachers regarding the employment of technological convergence in Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs). In particular, the study examined the reality of teachers' use of technological convergence in MOOC courses in Saudi Arabia, and the challenges and obstacles that may hinder them to employ technological convergence in MOOCs. 138 eligible teachers (57 male and 81 female) participated in the questionnaire, among which 7 (3 male and 4 female) were also selected for individual, semi-structured interviews afterwards. The results showed that teachers were somewhat inclined towards employing technological convergence in courses delivered through MOOCs. The study concluded with several recommendations for leveraging the diversity of technology in the current era and creating a more engaging and stimulating learning environment for students. In addition, the study discussed several challenges and how stakeholders in educational institutions and decision-makers can address them. Although many of these challenges can be easily overcome on MOOC platforms because these courses are delivered remotely, there are some restrictions, regulations, and incentives for teachers that should be reconsidered to further expand the use of technological convergence in MOOCs.

The Connotation of the Term "Munkar al-Hadith" According to Imam Abu Abd al-Rahman al Nasa’i in His Book Al-Du‘afa’ wa al-Matrukin
type: item
description: This study examines the concept of "munkar al-hadith" (narrator of repudiated hadith) as used by Imam Abu Abd al-Rahman al-Nasa’i in his work Al-Du‘afa’ wa al-Matrukin (The Weak and Abandoned Narrators). The term is identified as one of the severe forms of criticism (jarh) applied to narrators, based on an analysis of those described with this designation. The study reveals that the term "munkar al-hadith" is a stringent critique that excludes a narrator’s hadith from being accepted, due to a deficiency in one of the conditions for the acceptance of narration, namely, a flaw in the narrator’s integrity (‘adala) or accuracy (dabt). The research further establishes that Imam al-Nasa’i applied this term only to narrators lacking one of these two qualities. Additionally, it noted that other prominent scholars of hadith criticism, including Imam Yahya al-Qattan, Imam Abd al-Rahman ibn Mahdi, Imam al-Bukhari, Imam Muslim, and other leading authorities in this field, preceded Imam al-Nasa’i in the use of this term. The study highlights Imam al-Nasa’i’s distinguished status in evaluating narrators and discerning their reliability.

Discourse in the Narrative of Jumsa al-Balti from Nights of One Thousand and One Nights
type: item
description: This study aims to examine the narrative discourse of Naguib Mahfouz through the application of Gérard Genette’s structuralist approach to the sixth chapter of One Thousand and One Nights by Mahfouz, which presents the character Gamssa al-Balti. The significance of the study lies in uncovering the mechanisms of the text’s internal narration and demonstrating the utility of Genette’s key concepts—narrative time, narrative mood (focalization), and narrative voice—in analyzing the relationship between story and discourse. The study adopts a structuralist analytical method and is organized into two main sections. The first section addresses Genette’s theoretical framework and analytical tools, outlining the fundamental principles and concepts of narrative discourse. The second section applies these concepts to the narrative of Gamssa al-Balti, investigating temporal order, narrative voice levels, and focalization strategies in the construction of events and characters. The findings indicate that Genette’s concepts provide an effective means to deconstruct the mechanisms of narrative discourse and explain how Mahfouz transforms folk tales and traditional narratives into a contemporary literary text rich in artistic and symbolic meaning.

Teaching Practices of Female Science Teachers to Develop Higher-Order Thinking Skills among Their Female Students in Light of the TIMSS
type: item
description: The study aimed to investigate the teaching practices of female science teachers for developing higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) among their female students in light of the TIMSS. A descriptive survey methodology was employed. A questionnaire was administered to a sample of 250 female science teachers in the elementary and intermediate stages. The findings revealed that female teachers’ knowledge of the higher-order thinking skills associated with TIMSS was at a moderate level, reflecting an initial general awareness that does not reach the depth required to effectively translate into classroom practices. Teaching practices for developing HOTS also appeared at a moderate level with problem-solving ranking highest, followed by creative thinking, and then critical thinking, indicating that these skills are present in classrooms but to a limited extent. The challenges faced by female teachers in fostering HOTS among female students were likewise moderate, suggesting that while these challenges are real and influential, they do not constitute fundamental barriers, thus highlighting the need for educational and administrative interventions to strengthen these skills. In light of these results, the study proposed a set of recommendations and developmental suggestions.

type: item
description: The study aimed to explore the impact of digital public relations in improving the public image of the Saudi Museums Commission on the “X” platform, focusing on visitors and employees of the National Museum. A mixed-methods approach was adopted: an online survey of 73 visitors and semi-structured interviews with 4 digital PR employees. The results were interpreted through Framing Theory to understand the nature of digital messages and their role in shaping public perception. Findings showed a high positive perception of digital PR efforts, with an overall mean of 4.42/5. The image enhancement dimension ranked first (4.47/5), confirming the effectiveness of digital strategies in building institutional reputation. The study also highlighted the innovative use of virtual reality (VR) and holograms to boost audience engagement, especially among youth.However, several administrative and technical challenges emerged, including weak infrastructure, lack of a unified strategy, limited funding, and poor digital crisis management. Employees stressed the importance of transparency, rapid response, and visually appealing content in building trust. The study recommended improving infrastructure, developing a unified media strategy, increasing funding allocations, and establishing specialized teams for digital crisis management. It concluded that the success of digital public relations requires integrating modern technologies with direct engagement and creative content.

The text is regarded as an integrated entity whose elements are interconnected through grammatical, semantic, and logical relations. The research adopts an applied textual-analytical approach, by tracing the tools of grammatical and lexical cohesion, as well as textual and situational references, in addition to analyzing semantic coherence relations such as condition–consequence, general–particular, summary–detail, and contrast. The study also considers the functional standards related to the producer of the text, including intentionality, acceptability, informativity, situationality, and intertextuality, in order to uncover the interaction between the text, its audience, and the cultural context in which it emerged. The research is divided into an introduction, a prelude, three main chapters, and a conclusion which demonstrates that pre-Islamic poetry constitutes a complete text that meets the requirements of modern textuality. It was not merely a traditional artistic discourse, but rather a text with a coherent and consistent linguistic and semantic structure.
