    Reflections on the Criticisms of Ibrahim al-Nakha'i (d.96/714)

    Futsi, Ali

    Although Ibrāhīm al-Nakhaʻī, one of the greatest representatives of the school of jurisprudence in Kufa in the second half of the first century A.H., was considered reliable and reputable both in his own time and among the scholars of later periods, he was subjected to the criticisms of some Ahl al-Hadith scholars. It noteworthy that a significant portion of these criticisms is directed towards al-Nakhaʻī's orientation as a hadith scholar rather than his identity as a jurist. For example, when the allegations against al-Nahāʾī that he rejected hadiths and that he had little semāʾ are examined, it can be said that he actually sought some criteria such as the conformity of the narrations to the practice of Kūfah in addation to some of the conditions he sought in the narrators. Therefore, these allegations are not supported by any data; on the contrary, they show that al-Nakhaʻī's method of receiving hadith was based on solid foundations. In addition, this situation shows that the school of Kūfah took a different approach to the evaluation of hadiths than the Ahl al-Hadith, who took a literal view of the issue. The reasons for al-Nakhaʻī's narration of ḥadīth in the sense the meaing are his jurisprudential orientation and his opposition to the writing of ḥadīth. This shows that he narrated hadith based on a jurisprudential methodology and that he was the pioneer of the school later known as the Hanafites in the first century of the Hijr, who approached hadith in a different way than the Ahl al-Hadith. The fact that al-Nakhaʻī focused on the jurisprudential parts of the ḥadith and did not use writing in narrating the ḥadith is among the main reasons for his tendency towards narration by meaning, while the absence of any criticism against al-Nakhaʻī except for the narration of Ibn Sīrīn (d. 110/729) shows that Ibn 'Awn's (d. 151/768) criticism did not go beyond a personal opinion. There is no explicit criticism of al-Nakhaʻī's mursal narrations other than the evaluation of their authenticity and weakness, and no critical commentary has been identified except Ibn Hajar's (d. 852/1449) statement that "he was a sika, but he used to mursal a lot". In the evaluations of the Ahl al-Hadith who criticized Ibrāhīm al-Nakhaʻī's mursal narrations, the influence of their approach to mursal narrations can be observed. Although it has been said that al-Nakhaʻī made mistakes in the Arabic language, it is not correct to say that someone whose name is included in the most authentic isnads and whose narrations with meaning are accepted by hadith scholars does not have a good command of Arabic. Moreover, al-Nakhaʻī is also Arab in terms of ancestry. His statement about Abū Hurayra (d. 58/678), "He is not a jurist," is prominent in a report quoted by al- Dhahabi (d. 748/1348). However, in other sources, these criticisms are presented in general terms and seen as a general tendency of the school of Kūfah. al-Nakhaʻī's statements generally reflect the views of the school of Kūfah and the focus of criticism is on the people of Kūfah rather than al-Nakhaʻī himself. The criticisms of Abū Hurayra's narrations were not limited to Hanafīs, but were also made by Ahl al-Hadith scholars on similar grounds. Therefore, if a criticism is to be made, it should be addressed within a general framework, not by reducing it to al-Nakhaʻī’s person. Although there are a few examples of al-Nakhaʻī's association with Shiʿism, it is not compatible with the Shiʿite sect in general. Dhahabi 's definitions show that al-Nakhaʻī should rather be evaluated within the framework of Ahl al-Sunnah. Ibn Qutayba's (d. 276/889) categorization of al-Nakhaʻī as a Shīʿī does not coincide with the Shīʿī understanding of later periods and leads to a wrong conclusion. There is not enough evidence for al-Nakhaʻī to be considered a Shīʿī, so it is not correct to attribute him to this sect. al-Nakhaʻī used ra'y in matters of jurisprudence, but he rejected this method in matters of faith and even argued that ra'y was bid'ah. While he generally used the word 'ra'y' for the bid'ah sects in matters of belief, he used ra’y in practical matters and produced solutions by making qiyās in matters about which there was no clear ruling. However, he adhered to the narrations in matters where there was a hadith. al-Nakhaʻī's devotion to narrations and his tendency to make qiyās in matters where there was no hadith played a major role in shaping the school of fiqh in Kūfah. In conclusion, it can be said that al-Nakhaʻī used ra'y and qiyās in fiqh, but he rejected these methods in matters of faith and adhered to the narrations.

    Relationship between Organic Agriculture And GDP Per Capita, Economic Growth, and Unemployment: Panel Data Analysis

    Merdan, Kurtulus

    The increase in the world population recently has also increased the need for agricultural products. The need for food products has made it necessary to obtain more products per unit area. At this point, producers have focussed on the use of hormones, chemicals, and fertilisers to increase productivity and meet the demand for cheap food, and the process that increases production in the short term has become a threat to human health in the long term. Over time, the negative effects of chemicals on humans and the environment were observed, forcing producers to seek new methods. This process has led to independent studies on organic agriculture in every country. In this study, the effects of organic agriculture on some economic variables were revealed. In this context, the analyses focus now the variables of area allocated to organic agriculture on a regional basis, production amount and number of producers affected GDP per capita, economic growth, and unemployment in Turkey between 2003 and 2021. The scientific dimension of the study was prepared using data obtained from domestic and foreign literature and the electronic database of the Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Livestock. In this study, in which panel data analysis was used, EViews 12 programme was employed. For the variables used in the study, the geographical region cross-section dependence was determined, and the stationarity of the series was examined with the CIPS (Cross-Sectionally Augmented IPS) unit root test. As a result of the study, it was determined that organic production amount, number of organic farmers, and organic production area did not have a significant effect on economic growth and unemployment. Organic production area and the number of organic farmers had a positive and significant effect on GDP per capita, but the amount of organic production did not have a significant relationship

    Pala, Fahrettin; Erdogdu, Aylin; Ali, Muhammad; Alnori, Faisal; Barut, Abdulkadir

    PurposeThe purpose of this study is twofold. First, this research explores the level of Islamic financial literacy of customers in the context of Islamic banking. Second, this study examines the determinants of customer adoption of Islamic banking in Turkey. Design/methodology/approachThis study gathered sample data from 409 participants determined using the purposive sampling method. In the study, first, the reflective measurement model is used to examine the reliability, validity and multicollinearity problems of the variables. Then, AMOS structural equation model (SEM) is used to reveal the relationship between Islamic financial literacy and Islamic banking services. Additionally, this study performed both descriptive and inferential analysis to understand customer literacy about Islamic banking and their adoption behavior of Islamic banking. FindingsThe results obtained from descriptive assessment indicate that Turkish customers of Islamic banking possess sufficient literacy about Islamic banking. Moreover, the results from SEM indicate that the adoption of Islamic banking by customers is significantly predicted by the role of Sharia Board management, Islamic banking and purpose of financial institution, religious factor and legitimacy of Islamic financial system. Research limitations/implicationsThis study focuses only on the level of knowledge and perceptions of customers who have accounts in Islamic banks or financial institutions in Turkey. It does not focus on the level of knowledge and perception of Muslims who do not have accounts in Islamic banks and financial institutions. Originality/valuePrevious studies on Islamic banking are mostly studies that investigate customers' perceptions of the Islamic banking system and why individuals prefer Islamic banks. In particular, studies examining the relationship between individuals' Islamic financial literacy level and Islamic banking preferences are limited. This study is considered to be an original study as it investigates the relationship between the Islamic financial literacy level of individuals and their adoption of Islamic banking services in Turkey.

    The Effect of Conjunctiva-Müller Muscle Resection on Tear Oxidative Stress Levels in Patients with Blepharoptosis

    Sert, Seda; Araca, Ceyhun; Mergen, Burak; Ekmekçi, Ozlem Balca

    Objectives: To examine changes in tear oxidative stress levels and tear film functions in patients with blepharoptosis and dermatochalasis following conjunctiva-M & uuml;ller muscle resection (CMMR) and blepharoplasty surgeries. Materials and Methods: This prospective study included 32 healthy controls and 62 patients with blepharoptosis or dermatochalasis. CMMR surgery was performed in 20 eyes and upper blepharoplasty was performed in 42 eyes. Tear oxidative stress markers (8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine [8-OHdG3 and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal [4-HNE3) were quantified by enzyme -linked immunosorbent assay and tear film functions were evaluated preoperatively and at 1 and 6 months postoperatively. The same assessments were performed in the control group at the same time points. Results: Preoperative tear 8-OHdG and 4-HNE levels were lower in healthy controls (52.8 +/- 13.5 ng/mL and 27.8 +/- 6.4 ng/mL, respectively) compared to patients with dermatochalasis (86.1 +/- 37.2 ng/mL and 29.8 +/- 11.1 ng/mL, respectively) and blepharoptosis (90.4 +/- 39.3 ng/mL and 43.1 +/- 4.2 ng/mL, respectively) (p<0.001). 8-OHdG levels were increased at 1 month after CMMR, while both markers were decreased 1 month postoperatively in the blepharoplasty group (p=0.034). Schirmer 1 and OSDI scores did not change throughout the visits in both patient groups, but a temporary decrease in tear break-up time (TBUT) was observed after CMMR (p=0.017). Conclusion: Dermatochalasis and blepharoptosis were associated with higher tear oxidative stress levels. CMMR surgery caused a temporary decrease in TBUT scores and an increase in oxidative stress in the first postoperative month.

    Isometric Shoulder and Hip Strength Impact on Throwing Velocity and Reactive Strength

    Kayhan, Recep Fatih; Terzi, Esranur; Bayrakdaroglu, Serdar; Ceylan, Halil Ibrahim; Biyikli, Turker

    The aim of the study is to examine relationships between shoulder extension-flexion and internal-external rotation strength of professional male handball players with throwing velocity, and the hip extension-flexion strength with horizontal and vertical reactive strength index. Fifteen professional male handball players participating in 1 st League matches took part in the study. The results showed that isometric shoulder flexion and extension strength significantly predicted stable throwing velocity (r (2 )=between 0.27-0.73) and dynamic throwing velocity (r( 2) =between 0.30-0.62). In addition, isometric internal and external rotation strength significantly predicted stable throwing velocity (r (2) =between 0.32-0.54) and dynamic throwing velocity (r (2) =between 0.31-0.44). Moreover, isometric hip extension and flexion strength significantly predicted vertical reactive strength index (r( 2) =between 0.31-0.45) and horizontal reactive strength index (r (2) =between 0.26-0.42). In conclusion, it was observed that shoulder strength has an enhancing effect on handball players' throwing velocity, while hip strength is a determining factor for the reactive strength index. In this context, it is assumed that shoulder weakness during throwing will affect the accuracy and velocity of throwing by disrupting the angular momentum, while weakness in the hip during the jump phase of the throwing motion will negatively affect the explosive power by limiting stabilization during landing.

    Effect of Atherogenic Index of Plasma on Pre-Percutaneous Coronary Intervention Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction Flow in Patients With ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction

    Aydinyilmaz, Faruk; Özbeyaz, Nail Burak; Guliyev, Ilkin; Algül, Engin; Sahan, Haluk Furkan; Kalkan, Kamuran

    Dyslipidemia is an important risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Although low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is primarily responsible, the importance of triglyceride (TG) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) has also been recognized. The present study investigated the effect of the atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), in which atherogenic and protective lipoproteins were evaluated together, on the initial flow in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction. AIP was calculated as log(TG/HDL-cholesterol). Patients included in the study (n = 1535) were divided into Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) flow grade 0 and >0. AIP was found to be significantly different between 2 groups (.55 & PLUSMN; .23 vs .67 & PLUSMN; .21; P < .001). AIP was an independent predictor for pre-intervention TIMI flow (Odds Ratio: 2.778). A moderate correlation was found between TIMI frame count measurements, calculated in patients with TIMI 2-3, and AIP (Pearson correlation coefficient: .63, P < .001). In the receiver operating characteristic analysis, AIP showed the highest area under curve (AUC) compared with other lipid parameters for predicting vascular patency. The AUC of AIP was .634, the cut-off value was .59, and the sensitivity and specificity were 67.6% and 68.4%, respectively (P < .001). In conclusion, AIP was found to be an important marker affecting pre-percutaneous coronary intervention TIMI flow.

    Background: Glycemic variability (GV) is a prevalent and significant condition observed in critically ill patients. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between early glycemic variability parameters and 28-day mortality in critically ill patients. Methods: A multicenter, prospective, and observational study was performed at five tertiary intensive care units (ICUs) in Turkey. All patients who had more than six blood glucose level (BGL) measures per 24 h were included. The parameters of GV including the SD, MGL, MGD (the difference between the maximal and minimal glucose level), and the CV (the percentage of SD to the MGL) in the first 24 h were recorded. Results: A total of 578 eligible patients were enrolled in the study, of whom 43.6% were women. The mean age of the patients was 68.09 +/- 16.62 years. Overall mortality was 31.5% (n = 182). The glycemic parameters of the CV, SD, and MGD were significantly higher in the non-survivor group than in the survivor group (p = 0.040, 0.006, and 0.002, respectively). The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the CV (OR 1.023; 95% CI 1.004-1.042; p = 0.017) was an independent factor that increased mortality. Spearman's rho correlation analysis revealed a strong (r:0.871) and statistically significant correlation (p < 0.001) between the CV and MGD. Conclusions: The CV calculated within the first 24 h of ICU admission is independently associated with 28-day mortality. The MGD is correlated with the CV and is maybe a practical tool to predict increased risk of mortality at the bedside. However, further studies are needed to establish the independent association of the MGD with mortality.

    A NEW LOGARITHMIC TYPE ESTIMATORS FOR ANALYSIS OF NUMBER OF AFTERSHOCKS USING POISSON DISTRIBUTION

    Zaman, Tolga; Iftikhar, Soofia; Sozen, Caglar; Sharma, Prayas

    Earthquake is a fierce and unavoidable natural disaster. The study of aftershocks following an earthquake provides a comprehensive understanding of seismic activity, making it an important area of research. Although it is important to mention that the use of the Poisson distributed population, to estimate the mass mean of rare events such as earthquakes, has been little studied in the literature. In this context, this study proposes a new class of logarithmic type ratio estimators for estimating the mean of a Poisson distributed population in a simple random sampling without replacement. The proposed estimators are obtained using the logarithmic transformation of the ratio estimator, and the expressions for the mean square error (MSE) are also derived to the first order of approximation. The study demonstrates that the proposed logarithmic type estimators are more efficient than the existing estimators, both theoretically and empirically. The Empirical evidence from a real data study conducted using earthquake data from Turkey confirms the superiority of the proposed estimators over the existing estimators. The study provides valuable insights for researchers and practitioners working with Poisson distributed populations and requiring ratio estimators using simple random sampling without replacement.

    Ürkek, Bayram; Aktas, Haktan; Öztug, Mirac Ozer; Yeniçeri, Esra; Öztug, Pinar

    In this study, lavender essential oil (LEO) was added to ice creams as ingredient at 0, 0.02, 0.05 and 0.1% ratios. Some physicochemical, viscosity, rheological, colorimetric, sensory properties, and pathogen inhibition, including L. monocytogenes ATCC 7644 and S. aureus ATCC 29213, of the ice cream samples with the LEO were investigated. It was determined that the melting rate of the ice creams with the LEO was lower (P<0.05) and the overrun values were higher (P<0.05) than the control sample. The highest L* and a* values were determined in the control samples and the sample with 0.1% LEO, respectively. While C* value of the sample with 0.02% LEO was higher than the other samples (P<0.05), the highest white index (WI) value was determined in the control and the sample with 0.01% LEO. The sample containing 0.01% LEO had the highest viscosity values at 20 and 50 rpm. It was determined that there was no statistically significant difference in the consistency coefficients of the samples (P>0.05) and all samples had pseudolplastic flow. The control sample had the highest sensory score, followed by the sample with 0.02% LEO. It was determined that the LEO addition only had a decreasing effect on the count of S. aureus ATCC 29213.

    Cross-view Gait Recognition Based on Fine-Tuned Deep Networks

    Yaprak, Busranur; Gedikli, Eyup; Bingöl, Ozkan; Dogan, Ramazan Ozgur

    Gait recognition is a biometrics-based computer vision process used to identify people based on their walking styles. Compared to other types of biometrics, gait offers a more advantageous recognition process as it does not require high-resolution and close-range images and obtains without contact. But besides this, gait biometrics is highly affected by cross-view variation, and under this variation recognition performance decreases significantly. In this study, performance evaluations of fine-tuned VGG-16 and ResNet-50 deep CNN networks on the cross-view gait recognition problem are performed. For this purpose, Gait energy images (GEI) and Silhouettes obtained from CASIA-B, the most comprehensive data set in gait recognition, are given as input to the networks. The experimental results showed that the VGG-16 network achieved higher recognition rates in cross-view gait recognition.

    Investigation of the relationship between the buildings collapsed in February 6, 2023 Kahramanmaras earthquakes and the soil and analysis of the risk of collapse in earthquakes

    Eraslan, Selim; Hatipoglu, Ilter Kutlu; Ocak, Fatih; Isik, Fatih; Zeybek, Halil Ibrahim

    In this study, the building-ground relationship in the areas affected by the February 6 Kahramanmaras earthquakes was determined, and the risk of building collapse in future earthquakes was analyzed. Remote sensing techniques determined the collapsed building-soil relationship, and the frequency ratio method was applied by utilizing Geographic Information Systems techniques to assess the risk of collapse in earthquakes. According to the research results, 84% of the collapses occurred in flat areas. On the other hand, 49.7% of the collapses occurred in the 0-500 m elevation range. In particular, it was determined that 46% (110.8 km(2)) of the collapsed buildings occurred on alluvial land belonging to the Quaternary period. According to the earthquake frequency analysis of the total 108,812 km(2) area considered in this study, 43.72% of the area is at the Risky level, indicating that a large part of the region is at significant earthquake risk. Moreover, Hatay, Adana, Osmaniye, Sanliurfa, Kahramanmaras, and Malatya are the provinces where the risk of collapse of buildings in an earthquake is high. These results reveal the necessity of analyzing by considering many criteria in determining residential areas in provinces at risk of earthquakes.

    AN EFFICIENT FAMILY OF RATIO TYPE ESTIMATORS FOR SIMPLE RANDOM SAMPLING

    Yadav, Subhash Kumar; Arya, Diksha; Koc, Tuba; Zaman, Tolga

    The study provides an enhanced estimation of the population mean using known information on an auxiliary variable. An enhanced class of estimators is suggested for the same. The proposed estimator's bias and mean squared error (MSE) are calculated up to the first order of approximation. The optimum values of the characterizing constants are obtained by minimizing the MSE of the proposed estimator. The minimum MSE and the bias values are achieved by optimising the characterizing scalar. The MSE of the proposed estimator has also been compared both conceptually and empirically with the MSEs of competing estimators. Real and simulated data sets are adopted to verify the theoretical prerequisites for the proposed estimator's greater efficiency over competing estimators. The most efficient estimator is recommended for practical utility in different areas of applications and the suggested estimator filfills the requirement.
