Question #1 Sufi novices experience various challenges in their process of being servants. As such, they must follow what their masters tell them and must keenly read and understand the law to ensure that they complete the Sufi process. To ensure that they complete the process well, Al-Qureshi identifies a number of rules that they should follow. The master gives aspirants advice on the right attitude to approach the law so that they can enjoy their learning process. The first advice given is that the aspirants should be sincere. This is intended to enable them build a sound foundation concerning the law. That means that the aspirant should approach the law with sincerity. The author notes that the aspirant should know that the beginning of the Sufi path requires a sound belief that binds the servant and the Most High God (Qushayri, 2007). As such, the aspirant should not have any doubts or be swayed by unwarranted arguments. The aspirant should not be swayed by the arguments of those who deviate from the Sufi path (Qushayri, 2007). As such, if the aspirant is swayed, it would be due to their ignorance. Generally, an aspirant should approach the law with a…
The Northern African states, Algeria and Tunisia, have faced several political challenges that led to the Arab Spring at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Both Algeria and Tunisia are Islamic nations that have struggled with dictatorial governance from the early 1990s. The ruling political parties included religious groups that governed in these countries based on radical Islamic principles. The governments were authoritarian and dictatorial since the rulers followed Islamic beliefs without consideration of civil liberties. Additionally, Tunisia and Algeria faced military interventions that overruled the flawed elections won by the Islamic parties in these countries. Therefore, a critical evaluation of Martinez, Roberts, Quandt, and Tailor’s studies on the military governance reveals that the army takeover in Algeria and Tunisia in the early 1990s liberated the citizens from the dictatorial rule by the Islamic fascists in these nations.
What are some reasons for importing? What are some problems? Importing of various products is usually based on some compelling reasons, which helps in balancing the supply chain. Importing helps in meeting the demands of the customers for specific goods are not available within the borders of a given country. Many suppliers of various products opt to import, which allow sourcing of non-existence products in their target market. Another reason for importing products is to allow suppliers enjoy the low cost of importing products as compared to their production costs. In most cases, imported products have better quality as compared to local products because the importers select only top quality products for the importation. Notably, importing products come with some problems. The sourcing of products from oversea suppliers is a risky and challenging task because it requires the help of professional personnel to handle the sourcing process, which increase the cost. Importing is risky because some suppliers may seem genuine but are scammers. Pricing is another problem in importing because the negotiation involves more than just phone calls. Some problems related to pricing may arise due to language barriers and cultural differences, which make the importing process difficult. Quality control…
While economic disparity has a long history of concern, interest in this subject remains. After the Great Recession of 2008-2009, economic deprivation has dramatically risen as supported by popular and scholarly writing. Many see growing disparities in revenue and income allocation as a significant social issue in public conversation. While several of the texts on inequalities point to their negative consequences, some argue that inequalities are not dramatically increasing. In capitalist economies, the incentives are allocated due to different contributions to economic production, and people have different skills and attitudes towards work. That last suggestion begs whether inequality alone is anything, which is an issue regardless of whether people are at the bottom of the income spectrum. At least the related domestic expectations are still weak. Practically all accept that poverty represents a severe social flaw, sentencing many people to lives lacking security and essential needs and integrity and self-respect. But as Pope Francis points out, income injustice has more to do “with poverty than with unfairness, with the origin of social evil.” Imagine a world in which poverty has been abolished so that everyone can lead wealthy and fulfilling lives, but there are still considerable income disparities. No such…
As hinted prior, apology is a vital virtue that continues to draw substantial interests from individuals, fields, and corporate organizations. It refers to a regretful acknowledgement of an offence or failure. Particularly, Twitter is a distinct social media platform that is verily strategic for issuing apologies. Alquist (2015) opines that twitter is unique in the sense that it enables users to tag along recipients while issuing complaints or compliments. Moreover, it also enables the use of hashtags which goes along in categorizing tweets hence enabling them show more easily in searches. Thus, it is a no brainer that Charlie proceeded to issue his apology, following a conflict with the mall authorities for flaunting the mall’s directive on Covid-19 containment measures, through twitter. In the apology, her partook to describe the incident ostensibly to show or indicate apology. This, in essence, forms the basis for the on-going study on apology – how it influences perspectives as far as intentionality is concerned. Intentionality, as defined by Malle and Knobe (1997), refers to the power of minds and mental states to be about, to represent, or to stand for, things, properties and states of affairs. As such, is the aspect becomes necessary to…
The Concept of Scope and Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) Scope is an integral part of every project. Specifically, it constitutes all the objectives and goals to be achieved in a project. The scope helps team members to evaluate the progress of the project by listing all the requirements and the stages of development. For instance, the scope of the research entails calculation of costs, deliverables, deadlines, and tasks in the project. It is easier to identify mistakes and challenges facing the project by analyzing the scope of the project. Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) is that part of the scope that streamlines all the activities of the project. In essence, WBS creates effective and efficient flow to achieve the set goals. Furthermore, WBS provides the opportunity for analyzing adjusting the budgets of the project. Many changes take place before the completion of the project through Work Breakdown Structure. Just like in other projects, Work Breakdown Structure will suffice Solar Array Project meant to lower the cost of rebuilding in CA. Components of Work Breakdown Structure in the Project
One aspect that makes Spanish a widely studied Romance language is the inversion found in its wh-questions. The pre-verbal subject is impossible in wh-questions for the language in question, although it allows either pre- or post-verbal subjects. The approach does not represent a syntactic phenomenon, at least not according to contemporary thinking. The concept makes Spanish highly sensitive to well-known working memory, accounting for the basic constructions that provide properties for syntax analysis. Basics of Wh-movement in Spanish The properties of working memory explain various characteristics of wh-movement in Spanish and open different avenues through which the reduction of wh-questions proceed to its bare essential: minimalism. The process entails raising V to T, coupled with the elevation of the subject to SPEC of T. Finally, when the wh-movement possibly rises to SPEC of C, the syntax does not need to address any constraints regarding the interaction of the preverbal subject and wh-phrase since the independently required constraints on working memory handle them.
Conflicts in the financial industry occur if the client and the financial advisor have different interests in their contractual relationships. In such instances, the responsibilities of financial advisors differ with their private interests (Conflicts of Interests). Clients seek financial advice to identify potential risks, investment objectives, and time horizons in their projects. The clients usually state restrictions and investment limitations they may be facing to obtain appropriate information from financial advisors to deal with these constraints. The advisors have discretionary authority to decide on behalf of their clients. However, financial advisors can misuse this privilege for their own financial or material gain. Conflicts of Interests The source of the fee is a significant cause of conflict of interest in financial advisory relationships. Fee-based advisory firms are affiliated with insurance agencies or registered broker-dealers. These firms earn a commission for selling investment or insurance products of these agencies (Burke et al. 3). The conflict of interest arises when financial advisors recommend their clients to purchase the products of a particular insurance or investment agency to increase the commission that the former earn. For example, a financial advisor may recommend their client to buy common stocks of a specific company through a…
Object: Buddha Overview of the Object The term ‘Budha’ simplifies the ‘enlightened one.’ This is the most significant surviving representation of Buddha after his death. It is not just about the portraits we see today but dates back to hundreds of years ago. By the time Buddhism reached China, it has continued to play the most significant role in devotional practices. Physical Appearance, Colors, and Description Some of the unique features include the fact that it is defined by an impressive stature, pose, and dress. The key features also reflect vital human characteristics. On various occasions, gestures can differ depending on the situation at the time. However, the Buddha, in general, brings out a clear reflection of the various conventional features that render it unique and brings in the sense of attachment to all believers of Buddhism. Its physical appearance depicts the symbols of radiance; the halo around its head, for instance, or sometimes the entire body. The radiance of Buddha is also depicted by the flame at the top of the head, accompanied by a gold-covered surface.
Chris Anderson, a long-serving Ted talks host, draws on his experience about what makes a great talk in the video titled, ‘Ted’s secret to great public speaking’. He stresses the importance of focusing on a single idea when giving a speech or talk. He then proceeds to give guidelines on how to project the idea effectively in order to make a great speech. The most helpful ideas by the speaker were; to make use of the power of language, to stir the audience’s curiosity and to ensure other ideas are connected to your primary idea. The ability to link the ideas together forms the basis of a good speech. The speaker emphasizes the importance of using the power of language. Realistically, when explaining some concepts it is likely to use complex words that the audience does not understand. I concur with the idea because perfect execution of the power of language helps the audience to get up to speed with your concepts (Barkhuizen 26). However, this can only be effective when the speaker correctly identifies their type of audience. Taking advantage of the power of language helps to influence the decisions made by the audience with regard to the issues…
