The belief in “hantu” is the result of animism and dynamism among Malays before the arrival of Hindu, Buddha and Islam. Hantuis portrayed as the incarnation of evil souls wishing to harm humans. This belief is related to the concept of soul existence or “semangat” (essence) in everything including the human body. This ancient belief is integrated into their new religions through adaptation process. After embracing Islam, the belief in hantuis not totally dispelled since its features are similar to that of jinnand shaitan, whose existence are acknowledged in Islam. The belief is also supported by the concept of human soul in the afterlife, where it is deemed as immortal. Hantuis portrayed as the soul of the dead, dwelling in certain places and harming the humans. Based on the analysis of the texts of the Quranand Sunnah, it is found that the soul of the dead could never becomehantu, as opposed to the Malays’ belief. It is because the soul of the dead is in barzakh, the impassible barrier between the world and the Hereafter. It is a place where the soul is either rewarded or punished for his or her deeds in the past life. The souls cannot act independently by themselves as they are under the control of Allah. Based on this, the belief in hantuis against the Islamic teachings. This belief is capable in affecting a Muslim’s faith as it indirectly leads to the denial of rewards and punishments in the afterlife.

Biology is a branch of science that deals with living organisms and vital processes. This knowledge such as human creation is mentioned well throughout the Quran. One of the miracles in the Quran is that it describes accurately the embryonic stages during creation and formation of a fetus. Little did the recital knew about embryology, a medical terminology for human development in the mother's womb.

Integrasi ilmu Naqli dan Aqli merupakan model pendidikan yang diimplementasikan oleh Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM) dengan menerapkan elemen-elemen yang memenuhi keperluan fizikal dan rohani. USIM merupakan satu-satunya institusi pengajian tinggi di Malaysia yang mengetengahkan konsep ini secara komprehensif dalam semua kursus yang ditawarkan sejak awal penubuhannya lagi termasuklah kursus Al-Mabadik Al-Fiqhiyyah yang wajib diambil oleh pelajar Tamhidi Syariah dan Undang-Undang pada semester pertama mereka di Pusat Tamhidi. Subjek tersebut mengandungi pengetahuan asas tentang ilmu Fiqh, Usul al-Fiqh dan Qawaid Fiqhiyyah, iaitu tiga cabang ilmu yang berkait rapat dengan ilmu perundangan dan syariah Islam. Oleh itu, analisis ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji persepsi pelajar terhadap elemen Naqli dan Aqli yang terdapat dalam kursus tersebut. Data dikumpulkan melalui borang kaji selidik yang diedarkan kepada 114 orang responden yang sedang mengikuti program tamhidi syariah dan undang-undang pada semester kedua lagi membolehkan proses perbandingan keputusan pencapaian mereka dalam kursus tersebut pada semester sebelumnya dilaksanakan. Kajian menunjukkan hasil yang positif apabila majoriti pelajar bersetuju bahawa mereka memperolehi faedah yang banyak melalui kursus Al-Mabadik Al- Fiqhiyyah yang menerapkan konsep integrasi Naqli dan Aqli. Mereka juga berpendapat bahawa subjek tersebut penting dalam pembentukan watak dan sahsiah mereka. Hal ini kerana elemen Naqli dan Aqli telah diselitkan dalam setiap topik yang dipelajari melalui kursus ini dan para pelajar dapat memahaminya dengan baik melalui contoh-contoh yang diberikan. Kajian juga membuktikan bahawa sebahagian besar mereka memperakui bahawa elemen Naqli dan Aqli dalam kursus Al-Mabadik Al-Fiqhiyyah mempunyai hubung kait dengan Kursus Undang-Undang yang dipelajari di pusat tamhidi dan menyedari terdapat keunikan dalam ilmu Fiqh berbanding undang-undang sivil. Akhir sekali, kajian mendapati hampir keseluruhan pelajar mengakui bahawa kursus ini menepati roh USIM sebagai sebuah universiti yang menerajui integrasi ilmu Naqli dan Aqli. Kesimpulannya, elemen Naqli dan Aqli yang diterapkan di dalam setiap kursus yang ditawarkan oleh USIM tidak wajar dipandang enteng dan wajib diberi perhatian bagi merealisasikan Pelan Strategik USIM untuk menjadi Pusat Rujukan Integrasi Ilmu Naqli dan Aqli bukan sahaja di peringkat serantau malah di peringkat antarabangsa.

The world has witnessed significant detrimental effects of online gaming addiction to many individuals after the Era of Convergence. From playing game on console to playing online, the game industry evolved to be billion-dollar industry that lured many players to commit themselves that has resulted in addiction that increase over the years especially after the offline game gone online after the Era of Convergence. As much as the western world acknowledges the negative ramification of gaming addiction, the Muslim world recognizes it even more as having damaging effects on any individuals if it is related to the therotical concept of Al-Ghaflah (Heedlesness) in Islam. 82 university students were interviewed to determine the possible causes of heedlessness that can be found in prolong game play, the mechanics of game, and satisfaction found through escapism in this activity. The analysis indicated that gamers who played found satisfaction through dependency on game and needed to find greater achievement in play, causing them to focus on this gaming activity. The prolong addiction is to a certain extend is conflicting and controversial to the life of Muslims who wasted time on heedless activity that is delusional and swayed them from the remembrance of Allah.

The purpose of this study is to find out Islamic ethics in addressing illness and treatment. Methods used with literature search and literature selection. The theoretical framework of this study is that the Covid-19 pandemic has touched on every aspect of human life and raised many ethical questions. Several debates took place in various healthcare communities related to the coronavirus. In addition, religious communities also face various questions and challenges related to the Covid-19 pandemic regarding spiritual beliefs, ritual practices, and moral principles of the community. The results of the study show that every Muslim believes that every disease has its cure but man's job is to research and find a cure. Treatment is a healing effort recommended by the Prophet SAW, even if it is part of a form of tawakkal to Allah SWT, but treatment is prohibited by using drugs from unclean or made from objects forbidden by Islam. In times of emergency, Islam provides rukhsoh (leeway) for treatment with the haram with some emergency conditions that scholars have explained. Except for khomr, khomr still cannot be used as medicine, because in khomr emergency conditions are not met.

Naqli knowledge is a knowledge that is sourced on the Quran and Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad while Aqli knowledge is sourced from the rationale and findings of human thoughts in relationship with the progress of human civilization. Both types of knowledge have long developed in accordance with the current progress of the pioneers and their studies in the field. Therefore, Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM) as one of Malaysian Government universities has determined to be a university that is ahead in both disciplines through its theme in pioneering Islamic science and spearheading knowledge. Hence, the integration of Naqli and Aqli knowledge in the education curriculum for courses in the university has been practiced. This approach for both disciplines involves the entire faculty and academic centers in the university. For the Faculty of Quranic & Sunnah Studies, the department has made great strides through USIM's mission that is determined to be an advanced institution that is based on science and Islamic studies at the forefront of new knowledge through the use of the latest technology. This is to generate innovations that can transform the country, nation and mankind. Briefing sessions for integrating the two disciplines have been conducted to provide a better understanding to the academics in the Faculty. From the activities carried out, participants have more meaningful understanding in creating a curriculum that includes the integration of Naqli and Aqli. Similarly, workshops were also conducted either at the University or Faculty level for each course offered. From the workshop conducted, participants had made improvement to the curriculum of the courses offered to students. In addition, the seminar which was created through the presentation of papers by presenters either from within or outside the faculty have also been able to improve the quality of the education curriculum that integrates Naqli and Aqli in USIM. The study has found that the curriculum at the Faculty of Quranic & Sunnah Studies, USIM has successfully integrated both disciplines discussed, but in order to produce a more robust impact, then projected follow-up measures need to be strengthened.

Malaysian University English Test (MUET)has been implemented by the Ministry of Education to prepare tertiary students with the necessary English language skills. These skills are significant not just for the sake of passing the examination but also to train the students with English medium instructions in the classrooms at the tertiary level. The abovementioned skills are reading, writing, listening, and speaking; which will be examined amongst students to aid them to secure a place in universities. The four basic skills may sound manageable tolearn but there are still gaps in students‟ proficiency of the language which disrupt their competency, especially in their listening skills. Current researches show that students are not adequately prepared with listening strategies and listening comprehension instruction in the classroom. Thus, this study aims to investigate 60 undergraduate students‟ listening strategies; P.I.S.A (Predicting, Inferring and Selective Attention), in answering their listening tasks. A quantitative approach was employed with the use of a questionnaire as the instrument. The findings confirmed that a majority of the students adopted steadily these three strategies in their listening skills. This result may help to increase the basic listening competency and cognitive abilities among the undergraduate students and thereby ultimately enhance students‟ listening strategies of MUET at tertiary level.

The study focuses on the review of the methodology used in the interpretation of hadeeth of Kawniyyah verses in the Holy Quran by Sheikh Muhammad al-Amin al-Harary in his Tafseer Hada'iq al-Rawh wa al-Rayhan fi Rawabi 'Ulum al-Qur'an. It involves an observation on the hadeeth used by the author in interpreting texts related to the heavens and the earth, natural phenomena including clouds, rain, wind, thunder, lightning and gravity, day and night creations, the creation of mankind, astronomy, animals, plants vegetation, oceans, minerals, geography and medicine. Hadeeth used by him in the interpretation of the verses will be grouped according to the Kawniyyah aspects mentioned. In order to get a clearer meaning, it is translated into English. Then a brief reference is made (takhrij) in order to know who recorded the hadeeth and its quality. Finally, a general survey is made in relations to the author’s methodology of using hadeeth in his interpretation of the verses.
