1 The Qura nic Reading Standard Dr. Mujahid Yehia Mohammed Hadi Assist. Prof., Department of Holy Qur an Sciences The science of Qur an readings is based on listening-based reception and transfer from ancestors; Qur an Reading scientists have articulated standards to distinguish correct readings from the otherwise. This research aims to investigate such Qur anic standards which determine accepting readings or not. It shows how these standards were emerged, in terms of meeting Arabic orthography and correct transfer, highlighting the Ten Readings and why these standards were articulate and their relative importance. The Contemporary Reading of Surat Alfatiha: Mohammad Arkoon (presentation and criticism) Dr. Mahmoud Ali Ahmed Ali Saleh Assist. Prof. and Head, Department of Qur an Sciences, Qalam University, Ibb The purpose of this research is to clarify and pinpoint the mistakes of the contemporary reading of the Qur an text. It is based on the reading of Dr. Mohammad Arkoon, one of the most prominent figures who employed the contemporary reading methodology in the religious text. The research presents one of Arkons s readings of Surat Alfatiha as a living example of his contemporary reading. In particular, it presents the stages of his reading of this Surat, criticizing each stage. Thus, it is concluded that contemporary reading of the Qura nic text in its practical aspect is nothing but an example of the contemporary distortion of such a text under a new name. 1 Issue (4)-( July-December 2015)

The Problem of Ill-relation: reasons, lesions and treatment in Islam Dr. Abdu Mohammed Yusuf Assoc.

Poetics of the Thresholds in Raad Al-Saifi s Extinction of Colors Dr. Ali Hamood Alsamhi, Assist. Prof. of Arabic Literary Criticism, Head, Department of Arabic, Ibb University, Yemen. In this paper, the researcher attempts to provide a practical interactive approach to the analysis of the Thresholds in the Iraqi poet, Raad Al-Saifi s Extinction of Colors: structure, function and significance, exploring the resources of the poem s poetics and investigating its role in clarifying some of the hidden aspects of the Poetics of this Collection of Poems. The analysis employs the mechanisms of semiotic criticism via two levels of reading: horizontal and vertical. The former reading focuses on the Threshold s structure syntactically and lexically. It also aims at detecting the Threshold s structural components. The vertical reading, however, aims to correlate the Threshold with the text of the book as a whole in order to detect the semantic substitutional component. Due to its nature, the subject matter has been tackled as follows: i) Introduction, ii) External Thresholds (title of the book, cover, next page of the casing, initial epigraph) and iii) Internal Thresholds (text thresholds): (titles/subtitles, epigraphs and dates). 5 Issue (4)-( July-December 2015)

6 The Status of Camel in the Ancient Yemeni Civilization Dr. Munir Abdeljaleel Alariqi Assoc. Prof. of Archaeology Dean, Faculty of Arts, Ibb Univeristy This study has proved that the first home of the mono-hump camel is the Arab Peninsula (the ancient Yemen), and that the ancient Yemenis are the first to domesticize and use it for several purposes in their lives. Only then was it known to North Africa, as well as the Lavent. The camel was one of the reasons of flourishing Yemeni Civilization at the beginning of the first millennium BC, specifically economically, for being the only means of transportation in those places days. All these economic factors gave the camel the first status in Ancient Yemen. The study has also proved that camel enjoyed no religious status since it was not used as an animal symbol of any idol. Strong evidence is that camel was not an element of ancient temple decorations, compared to other animals like ox and ibex. Camel was not also engraved in the ancient coins as a religious symbol. Ancient Yemeni paid much attention to camel alive or dead. This is clear through the different ways of burial and the variation of the graveyards, as well as the religious rituals that accompanied the burial process. These religious burials made for camel resemble those made for human. Camel enjoyed a very important status in the ancient Yemen Art, beginning with prehistoric eras walking through, and ending in historic era, when idols were engraved from raw several materials like clay, stones, marble, and alabaster, casted in bronze, as well as dedicated paintings and thuribles. The statues made for camel was small, thus, distinguished in the ancient Yemen art, whether made from clay, stones or bronze, because they were immolations given to goddess, in addition to being kept as mascots for the safety of this animal. The study concludes that up to writing this study, statues of actual size of camel are not found in the above-mentioned places. 6 Issue (4)-( July-December 2015)

7 The Ottoman Empire through Yemeni Lens: a study of a travel manuscript Dr. Aref Mohammed Abdullah Fare Alra wi Assoc. Prof. of Modern and Contemporary History, Dean of International Cooperation, Ibb Univeristy This paper aims to introduce one of the most important historical travel manuscripts, namely, Rihlat-u-ulama a-i wa Al-Saada min Al-Yemen ila Dar-Ul-Sa aada (The Travel of Scholars and Masters from Yemen to Turkey) written by Hajj Abdullah Yunis (1907AD/1325AH). The manuscript takes the form of a detailed diary/report on a Yemeni delegation consisting of the top influential tribal, religious and judicial figures (including Hajj Yunis) on the Yemeni national and local level. They were selected per the orders of the Ottoman Sultan Abdul Hameed in 1907AD to meet the Sultan in Istanbul to discuss how to restore the political stability in Yemen. The importance of the manuscripts lies in the fact that the writer, Hajj Uunis, detailed everything taken place during the travel, in addition to his own impressions. In fact, Hajj Yunis put us vis-à-vis a detailed picture of the Yemeni-Ottoman relations, particularly documenting the minutes of the meeting with the Sultan, and those of other meetings with the leadership of the Ottoman Empire. Another importance of the manuscript is that it highlights the huge medical, military, urban and infrastructural developments in several Turkish cities from the Other s perspectives. It, thus, gives the Turkish reader a very clear picture of a specific period of the Ottoman Empire as viewed through Yemeni lens. 7 Issue (4)-( July-December 2015)

8 The Appropriate Cognitive Accounting Construction for the Informational Operation Dynamics in the Yemeni Business Environment Dr. Mohammed H. A. Alsamhi Assist. Prof. of Accounting, Vice-dean, Faculty of Management Sciences, Ibb University. This paper aims to characterize the appropriate cognitive accounting construction for the informational operation dynamics in Yemeni business environment through a quadri-dimensional (knowledge, cognitive, professional and behavioral) system, which embodies the future demands in this regard. The study adopts the descriptive analytic approach in two spheres: theoretical and practical, appropriate to the nature of the study. A questionnaire was designed for collecting data. The study population consists of academics, accountants, auditors, accountants, owners and/or managers (directors of organizations) in the business sector. The results of the study show that the cognitive accounting systems in question are in need of an integrated system of developmental procedures and methods. These are needed to ensure the appropriate responsivity to the informational operation dynamics and to meet the future requirements of business organizations, necessary for coping with the contextual variables of the economics of knowledge. 8 Issue (4)-( July-December 2015)
