Investment in health research has positive Message impact in five areas; advancing knowledge, building capacity, informing decision making, improving Dr. Tawfiq Al-Rabiah health, health system outcomes and contributing to the economy. Saudi Arabia is trying to increase the level of research cooperation over all institutions belonged to either governmental or non-governmental sector, and assign it as a long-term aim due to the necessity to consider public expectations and public engagement. Yet, collaboration between them through data, best practice and resource sharing is uncommon. This is of particular importance because of the increasing recognition that inter-institutional and inter-disciplinary research collaboration is essential to fully address complex health and healthcare issues. 10 11 The General Directorate of Research and studies (GDRS) undertook the responsibility to deal with the former fragmented and poorly coordinated MOH research system. Consequently, it adopted a national strategy and implementation roadmap to upgrade research infrastructure redesign the health research landscape across MOH and develop a research support framework. It announced launching a regional research departments operational plan, defined a package of relevant initiatives and identified & implemented a set of projects. GDRS accomplished the following programs : Covering health affairs directorates Unifying their organizational all over the Kingdom with structure. Institutional Review Boards (IRBs). Standard operational Procedures Arranging to put e-Review (SOPs) & formats. technique into action. Ddefining missions & Organizing reporting and adopting responsibilities. structural interaction approaches in terms of formalized networks and platforms.

The Qibla in the Koran, Abu Lahab, and the Birth of Islam Page | 3 Introduction Sura 2 in the Koran introduces a ritual change that came to be one of the elements that defines the religious culture of Muslims across the world, the change that indicates to worshipers a direction of prayers (qibla). The worshipping toward Mecca is perhaps the very symbol of the birth of Islam. While this change should manifest itself in the archaeological evidence of early mosques, it is widely accepted that this is a matter of broad interpretation. However, the questions that derive from the Koranic passages might find their answers if the focus of rotating places of worship was based on a system – any system.

  • Xerox University Microfilms
    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
