Kontradiksi Dalam Konsep Politik Islam Eksklusif Sayyid Quthb

Perkembangan kelompok Islam eksklusif yang mengklaim keimanan dan ideologinya paling benar ketimbang yang lainnya semakin merebak dewasa ini. Kelompok itu tidak hanya terwujud dalam gerakan kultural saja, akan tetapi juga mewujud dalam gerakan politik. Di Indonesia, gerakan ini digaungkan oleh kelompok-kelompok yang mempropagandakan berlakunya syariat Islam sebagai undang-undang dan khilafah Islamiyah sebagai sistem negara. Artikel ini berusaha untuk membahas tentang pemikiran politik Sayyid Quthb yang dinilai sebagai seorang inspirator para pemikir politik Islam eksklusif setelahnya. Dengan menggunakan metode kritik intern dan ekstern, penulis menyimpulkan bahwa pemikiran Sayyid Quthb sebenarnya sangat dipengaruhi oleh dominasi konteks konflik lokal Mesir maka dari itu masih perlu dipertanyakan tentang keuniversalan konsep-konsepnya. Dalam mengikuti manhaj al-Qur\u27an dan para Salaf al-salih, Sayyid Quthb kurang kritis tentang mengapa manhaj tersebut digunakan sehingga dalam pergerakan politiknya ia menggunakan manhaj yang tidak relevan bila dibawa ke zaman modern.The development of Islamic exclusive sect who claim truest faith and ideology than the another is more wide spread today. The sect is not only manifested in the cultural movement, but also manifests themselves in political movements. This movement spread by sect that propagate into force of Islamic law as the law and the Islamic khilafah as a state system in Indonesia. This article discusses about the political thought of Sayyid Quthb considered as an inspiration exclusive Islamic political thinkers there after. By using internal and external criticism method, the authors conclude that the thought of Sayyid Quthb in factstrongly influenced by the dominance of the Egyptian context of local conflicts and therefore still need to be questioned about the universality of concept. Infollowing the Qur\u27an and the manhaj of the Salaf al-salih, Sayyid Quthbless critical about why the manhaj used. So in the political movement, he usesthe irrelevant manhaj to applied in the modern era

The effect of 12 weeks Anethum graveolens (dill) on metabolic markers in patients with metabolic syndrome; A randomized double blind controlled trial

Background: The clustering of metabolic abnormalities defined as metabolic syndrome is now both a public health and a clinical problem .While interest in herbal medicine has greatly increased, lack of human evidence to support efficacies shown in animals does exist. This clinical trial study designed to investigate whether herbal medicine, Anethum graveolens (dill) extract, could improve metabolic components in patients with metabolic syndrome. Methods: A double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial using a parallel design was conducted. 24 subjects who had metabolic syndrome diagnostic criteria (update of ATP III) were randomly assigned to either dill extract (n = 12) or placebo (n = 12) for 3 months. Results: Across lipid component of metabolic syndrome, no significant differences in triglyceride (TG) concentration and high density lipoprotein cholesterol were seen between the two groups. However TG improved significantly from baseline (257.0 vs. 201.5p = 0.01) with dill treatment but such a significant effect was not observed in placebo group. Moreover, no significant differences in waist circumference, blood pressure and fasting blood sugar were seen between two groups after 3 months follow up period. Conclusion: In this small clinical trial in patients with metabolic syndrome, 12 weeks of dill extract treatment had a beneficial effect in terms of reducing TG from baseline. However dill treatment was not associated with a significant improvement in metabolic syndrome related markers compared to control group. Larger studies might be required to prove the efficacy and safety of long-Term administration of dill to resolve metabolic syndrome components. © 2012 Mansouri et al.; licensee BioMed Central Ltd

Investigating the antecedents to the adoption of SCRM technologies by start-up companies

Despite their fairly recent emergence, start-up companies now play an important role in the economic development of countries around the globe. These companies have fewer tangible assets and capital, and therefore, the efficient delivery of services and products is a key business priority for them. Customer relationship management (CRM) technologies, which are designed to facilitate customer engagement during the design, development and delivery of services and products may play a significant role in the success or failure of start-up companies. Developments in new communication technologies have transformed traditional CRM into electronic CRM (eCRM), mobile CRM (mCRM); and more recently, social CRM (SCRM). However, there remains very little understanding of the factors affecting SCRM adoption in start-up businesses. The relative newness of SCRM technologies, coupled with the swiftly evolving nature of start-up companies: which has made them difficult cases to study – has limited the amount of research undertaken in this area. This paper aims to close this gap by proposing a framework that depicts the factors affecting start-up companies’ intention to adopt SCRM applications, and explores the relative importance of these factors. Inspired by an extended Technological, Organisational and Environmental (TOE) framework, this paper investigates effects of technological characteristics (TC), organisational characteristics (OC), environmental characteristics (EC) and managerial characteristics (MC) on start-up companies’ intentions to adopt SCRM applications. The results outlined in this research indicate that the observability, compatibility and trialability of SCRM solutions positively affect SCRM adoption in start-up businesses. Moreover, the availability of internal financial resources has a similarly positive effect. When considering environmental characteristics, it was found that support from venture capitalists, crowd funding support, governmental support, business angels support and external pressure all positively affect the intention to adopt SCRM applications within start-up businesses

Radikalisme Agama Dalam Perspektif Hukum Islam

: Religious Radicalism in the Perspective of Islamic Law. The emergence of ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Suriah) movement in some countries, including Indonesia, bring back discussions in the study of religious radicalism. This paper examines the religious radicalism of Islam which is often viewed as religious ideas that could potentially give birth to terrorism. The aspects that were examined here includes religious texts- which are often used as a basis of justification to undertake radical movement-methods in understanding the texts, as well as, the implications for perpetrators of radical movements. This study finds out that the birth of a radical ideology is due to a narrow and incomplete interpretation to the religious texts which later implicates in a false understanding of the doctrine of Islam

Electrophysiological and molecular mechanisms of protection by iron sucrose against phosphine-induced cardiotoxicity: A time course study

The present study was designed for determining the exact mechanism of cytotoxic action of aluminum phosphide (AlP) in the presence of iron sucrose as the proposed antidote. Rats received AlP (12 mg/kg) and iron sucrose (5-30 mg/kg) in various sets and were connected to cardiovascular monitoring device. After identification of optimum doses of AlP and iron sucrose, rats taken in 18 groups received AlP (6 mg/kg) and iron sucrose (10 mg/kg), treated at six different time points, and then their hearts were surgically removed and used for evaluating a series of mitochondrial parameters, including cell lipid peroxidation, antioxidant power, mitochondrial complex activity, ADP/ATP ratio and process of apoptosis. ECG changes of AlP poisoning, including QRS, QT, P-R, ST, BP and HR were ameliorated by iron sucrose (10 mg/kg) treatment. AlP initiated its toxicity in the heart mitochondria through reducing mitochondrial complexes (II, IV and V), which was followed by increasing lipid peroxidation and the ADP/ATP ratio and declining mitochondrial membrane integrity that ultimately resulted in cell death. AlP in acute exposure (6 mg/kg) resulted in an increase in hydroxyl radicals and lipid peroxidation in a time-dependent fashion, suggesting an interaction of delivering electrons of phosphine with mitochondrial respiratory chain and oxidative stress. Iron sucrose, as an electron receiver, can compete with mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes and divert electrons to another pathway. The present findings supported the idea that iron sucrose could normalize the activity of mitochondrial electron transfer chain and cellular ATP level as vital factors for cell escaping from AlP poisoning. © 2015 Informa Healthcare USA, Inc.
