  • Abdul Azim Islahi Islamic Economics Research Center King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
    J.KAU: Islamic Econ., Vol. 23 No. 2, pp: 237-246 (2010 A.D./1431 A.H.) Muhammad Nejatullah Siddiqi Maqasid-e Shari`at (Objectives of the Shariah) Markazi Maktabah-e-Islami, New Delhi. 2009, 322 pp. Review by: Abdul Azim Islahi Islamic Economics Research Center King Abdulaziz University, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia “Maqasid-e-Shariat” (Objectives of the Shariah) is the latest work by Prof. M.N. Siddiqi, first published by the Islamic Research Academy, Islamabad, and republished by the Markazi Maktabah-e-Islami, New Delhi. We have before us the one published from New Delhi. The subject of Objectives of Shariah has assumed utmost importance these days in the wake of numerous new issues faced by the Ummah in recent years. The Urdu language is spoken by a very large number of Muslim population and scholars in the world. But writings on this topic are very few in this Islamically rich language. Prof. Siddiqi seeks to fill this gap and wants to address those who master only this language. Since long time Dr. Siddiqi held that “envisioning Islamic economy in twenty-first century is better done with reference to goals of Islamic law. This will enable us to handle issues like poverty and inequality (observed in his Keynote Address on Islamic Economics: Current State of Knowledge and Development of the Discipline" delivered at the Round Table Discussion – Organized by IRTI during 26-27 May, 2004, Jeddah). He is of the view that there is need to differentiate between objectives of Islam as a way of life and objectives of Islamic jurisprudence.

If Allah's Messenger had explained them clearly, it would have been dearer to me than the world and what it contains: (These are) kalala, riba, and khilafa.

Those who eat Ribâ (usury) will not stand (on the Day of Resurrection) except like the standing of a person beaten by Shaitân (Satan) leading him to insanity. That is because they say: "Trading is only like Ribâ (usury)," whereas Allâh has permitted trading and forbidden Ribâ (usury). So whosoever receives an admonition from his Lord and stops eating Ribâ (usury) shall not be punished for the past; his case is for Allâh (to judge); but whoever returns [to Ribâ (usury)], such are the dwellers of the Fire - they will abide therein.

  • Laquinimod Protects the Optic Nerve and Retina in an Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis Model Anna T
    Wilmes et al. Journal of Neuroinflammation (2018) 15:183 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12974-018-1208-3 RESEARCH Open Access Laquinimod protects the optic nerve and retina in an experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis model Anna T. Wilmes1†, Sabrina Reinehr1†, Sandra Kühn1, Xiomara Pedreiturria2, Laura Petrikowski2, Simon Faissner2, Ilya Ayzenberg2, Gesa Stute1, Ralf Gold2, H. Burkhard Dick1, Ingo Kleiter2*† and Stephanie C. Joachim1*† Abstract Background: The oral immunomodulatory agent laquinimod is currently evaluated for multiple sclerosis (MS) treatment. Phase II and III studies demonstrated a reduction of degenerative processes. In addition to anti-inflammatory effects, laquinimod might have neuroprotective properties, but its impact on the visual system, which is often affected by MS, is unknown. The aim of our study was to investigate potential protective effects of laquinimod on the optic nerve and retina in an experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) model. Methods: We induced EAE in C57/BL6 mice via MOG35–55 immunization. Animals were divided into an untreated EAE group, three EAE groups receiving laquinimod (1, 5, or 25 mg/kg daily), starting the day post-immunization, and a non- immunized control group. Thirty days post-immunization, scotopic electroretinograms were carried out, and mice were sacrificed for histopathology (HE, LFB), immunohistochemistry (MBP, Iba1, Tmem119, F4/80, GFAP, vimentin, Brn-3a, cleaved caspase 3) of the optic nerve and retina, and retinal qRT-PCR analyses (Brn-3a, Iba1, Tmem119, AMWAP, CD68, GFAP). To evaluate the effect of a therapeutic approach, EAE animals were treated with 25 mg/kg laquinimod from day 16 when 60% of the animals had developed clinical signs of EAE.

Dana Gas has also applied for permission to appeal the English High Court’s decision to proceed with the English trial in circumstances where Dana Gas was prevented from participating in the English trial.
