  • Saudi Arabia Under King Faisal
    SAUDI ARABIA UNDER KING FAISAL ABSTRACT || T^EsIs SubiviiTTEd FOR TIIE DEqREE of ' * ISLAMIC STUDIES ' ^ O^ilal Ahmad OZuttp UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF DR. ABDUL ALI READER DEPARTMENT OF ISLAMIC STUDIES ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 1997 /•, •^iX ,:Q. ABSTRACT It is a well-known fact of history that ever since the assassination of capital Uthman in 656 A.D. the Political importance of Central Arabia, the cradle of Islam , including its two holiest cities Mecca and Medina, paled into in insignificance. The fourth Rashidi Calif 'Ali bin Abi Talib had already left Medina and made Kufa in Iraq his new capital not only because it was the main base of his power, but also because the weight of the far-flung expanding Islamic Empire had shifted its centre of gravity to the north. From that time onwards even Mecca and Medina came into the news only once annually on the occasion of the Haj. It was for similar reasons that the 'Umayyads 661-750 A.D. ruled form Damascus in Syria, while the Abbasids (750- 1258 A.D ) made Baghdad in Iraq their capital. However , after a long gap of inertia, Central Arabia again came into the limelight of the Muslim world with the rise of the Wahhabi movement launched jointly by the religious reformer Muhammad ibn Abd al Wahhab and his ally Muhammad bin saud, a chieftain of the town of Dar'iyah situated between *Uyayana and Riyadh in the fertile Wadi Hanifa. There can be no denying the fact that the early rulers of the Saudi family succeeded in bringing about political stability in strife-torn Central Arabia by fusing together the numerous war-like Bedouin tribes and the settled communities into a political entity under the banner of standard, Unitarian Islam as revived and preached by Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab.

My mother who surrounded me with her love, praying for me throughout the time I spent working on my thesis. To all my brother and sisters (Noura, Hoda, Nasser, Dr Mounera, Abdullah and Abdurrahman). With a special dedication to my lovely wife (Nawal) and my sons (Mohammed and Feras) 2 Abstract As Saudi Arabia turns towards modernisation, it faces many tensions and conflicts during that process. Consumerism is an extremely controversial subject in Saudi society. The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes that the opportunities and constraints of consumerism have brought about in the specific socio-economic and cultural settings between local traditions, religion, familial networks and institutions, on the one hand, and the global flow of money, goods, services and information, on the other. A qualitative method was applied.

  • Ancient History of Arabian Peninsula and Semitic Arab Tribes
    Advances in Social Sciences Research Journal – Vol.7, No.5 Publication Date: May 25, 2020 D OI:10.14738/assrj.75.8252. Shamsuddin, S. M., & Ahmad, S. S. B. (2020). Ancient History of Arabian Peninsula and Semitic Arab Tribes. Advances in Social Sciences Research Journal, 7(5) 270-282. Ancient History of Arabian Peninsula and Semitic Arab Tribes Salahuddin Mohd. Shamsuddin Faculty of Arabic Language, Sultan Sharif Ali Islamic University, Brunei Darussalam Siti Sara Binti Hj. Ahmad Dean: Faculty of Arabic Language, Sultan Sharif Ali Islamic University, Brunei Darussalam ABSTRACT In this article we introduced first the ancient history of Arabian Peninsula, and pre-Islamic era and then we focused a spot light on the people of Arabian Peninsula, highlighting the four waves of migration of Semitic Arabs from the southern to northern Arabian Peninsula, then we mentioned the situation of Northern Arabs and their tribal fanaticism, then we differentiated between Qahtaniyya and Adnaniyya Arab tribes including their three Classes: Destroyed Arab, Original Arab and Arabized Arab. We also explained the tribal system in the pre-Islamic era, indicating the status of four pillars of the tribal system: 1. Integration and alliance among the tribes 2. Tribal Senate or Parliament 3. Tribes and sovereignty over the tribes 4. Members of the tribes and their duties towards their tribal society In the end we described the master of Arab tribe who was the brightest person had a long experience and often had inherited his sovereignty from his fathers to achieve a high status, but it does not mean that he had a broad sovereignty, as his sovereignty was symbolic.

  • Saudi Human Genome Program Building a Foundation for Personalized Medicine
    Saudi Human Genome Program Building a Foundation for Personalized Medicine Brian Meyer, PhD What is Personalized Medicine? • The ability to determine an individual's unique molecular characteristics – to use those genetic distinctions to diagnose more finely an individual's disease – select treatments that increase the chances of a successful outcome – reduce possible adverse reactions. • Personalized medicine also is the ability to predict an individual's susceptibility to diseases and thus to try to shape steps that may help avoid or reduce the extent to which an individual will experience a disease. What does it require? • Essential features for personalized medicine to be a fully functioning reality at the clinical level include: – an electronic medical record – personalized genomic data – physician access to electronic decision support tools – personalized treatments – personal clinical information available for research use Why Personalized Medicine? • The past decade has seen a revolution in human genetics – it is having a very significant impact on virtually all specialties of medicine • Several scientific advances are responsible for this revolution – First is the recognition and validation that the genetic composition of individuals play a significant role in that individual's health and predisposition to common diseases such as heart disease and cancer. – Second is the availability of the human genome sequence and the many high throughput technologies developed and advanced during and since the Human Genome Project. – Third is the imminent ability to completely sequence and analyze the human genome in real time at relatively low cost.
