First of all, let's understand between Islamic education and non-Islamic education. The orientation of Islamic education is when the education system is based on the values, teachings and principles of the Islamic religion, while non-Islamic education refers to an education system that is not based on a particular religion. The problem that arises is when there is an imbalance between these two orientations. Some people argue that the orientation of Islamic education can ignore important aspects of non-Islamic education such as science, technology, arts and culture. On the other hand, there are those who argue that non-Islamic education can ignore the values ​​and religious principles that are important for the majority of Muslims.

Pemberi Sewa yang mengalami kepailitan menimbulkan masalah serius bagi Penyewa, karena harta kekayaan, termasuk objek sewa, berada di bawah pengurusan dan pemberesan kurator setelah debitor pailit. Permasalahan utama adalah keabsahan Perjanjian Sewa Menyewa yang telah dibuat sebelum kepailitan. Mahkamah Agung memberikan putusan berbeda, di mana pada Nomor 658 K/Pdt.Sus-Pailit/2014, Penyewa diizinkan memanfaatkan objek sewa hingga perjanjian berakhir, namun putusan terbalik terjadi pada Nomor 78 PK/Pdt.Sus-Pailit/2015 yang menetapkan bahwa kurator memiliki kewenangan dalam pemberhentian dan perpanjangan perjanjian. Perlindungan hukum untuk Penyewa yang dirugikan perlu dipertimbangkan setelah Pemberi Sewa dinyatakan pailit. Penelitian menggunakan metode yuridis normatif dengan mengacu pada data sekunder, primer, dan tersier, serta pendekatan studi pustaka dan analisis kualitatif. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk mengkaji keabsahan perjanjian sewa-menyewa setelah kepailitan Pemberi Sewa, menganalisis pertimbangan hakim dalam penyelesaian sewa menyewa pasca-kepailitan, dan menilai perlindungan hukum bagi Penyewa. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kepailitan Pemberi Sewa mengakibatkan syarat subjektif perjanjian tidak terpenuhi, memungkinkan pembatalan perjanjian. Perbedaan putusan Mahkamah Agung menimbulkan ketidakpastian hukum, namun Perlindungan Hukum kepada Penyewa tetap ada berdasarkan Undang-Undang No 37 Tahun 2004 tentang Kepailitan dan PKPU. Mereka diakui sebagai Kreditur Konkuren dengan hak pendaftaran tagihan dan keistimewaan tertentu, tanpa terikat jangka waktu pendaftaran tagihan secara umum.

Tujuan dari riset ini adalah untuk menguraikan proses pembentukan verba dalam bahasa Arab dan bahasa Indonesia, menganalisis perbedaan antara keduanya, dan menjelaskan implikasi dari perbedaan tersebut. Data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini terdiri dari sumber tertulis, baik yang terpublikasi dalam artikel, makalah, buku, maupun tulisan lain yang terkait dengan pembentukan kata kerja dalam bahasa Arab dan bahasa Indonesia, serta pembelajaran bahasa Arab. Metode pengumpulan data yang diterapkan mengacu pada pencatatan teknis. Data yang terkumpul kemudian dianalisis melalui pendekatan analisis kontrastif. Hasil penelitian ini menggambarkan bahwa pembentukan verba dalam bahasa Arab terjadi melalui modifikasi internal dan afiksasi, sementara dalam bahasa Indonesia, proses tersebut melibatkan afiksasi, reduplikasi, dan komposisi. Perbedaan yang paling mencolok antara keduanya adalah bahwa pembentukan verba dalam bahasa Arab selalu terkait dengan elemen waktu, kuantitas, dan jenis kelamin. Sementara itu, pembentukan verba dalam bahasa Indonesia tidak memiliki keterkaitan dengan waktu dan jenis kelamin, sehingga konsep semantik terkait waktu, kuantitas, dan jenis kelamin diwakili secara leksikal oleh kata kerja yang menyertainya.

B value is a factor that reflects the strength and timing of the gradient that will be used to generate a diffusion-weighted image. The higher the b value, the stronger the effect on diffusion. B value can be expressed in units of s/mm2 with a b value range of 500 s/mm2 to 1500 s/mm2. The use of b value in Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) sequences is very important in detecting prostate cancer to distinguish malignant and benign cancer tissue because b value determines the amount of diffusion weighting and shows the sensitivity of the sequence to diffusion. The purpose of this study is to determine the difference in the quality of SNR and CNR images with b value variations in Pelvic MRI examination in prostate cancer cases. This study uses quantitative research methods with an experimental approach. The study population and samples were 4 Pelvic MRI patients with prostate cancer cases who underwent examination in July-August 2023 at the Radiology Installation of Prof.Dr.I.G.N.G Ngoerah Hospital, and each sample was subjected to b value variations of 800, 1000, 1400 and 2000 on the Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) sequence. Data were processed using radiant DICOM and then analyzed using normality test and repeated anova test on SPSS 25 software. The results showed a significance value (p-value) > than 0.05, it can be concluded that H0 is accepted and Ha is rejected, which means that there is no difference in Pelvic MRI image quality in Prostate Cancer Cases with b value variations. The b value variation of 800 on Pelvic MRI examination on Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI) sequences with prostate cancer cases can produce more optimal image quality compared to b value variations of 1000, 1400 and 2000.

Herniated nucleus pulposus (HNP) is the leading cause of back pain in old age, occurring as a result of tearing of the fibrous annulus and the nucleus pulposus exiting through the tear. To optimize pathology, fat suppression techniques are needed to suppress fat and fluid. Fat Suppression techniques include Dixon and SPAIR. The use of Dixon is relatively longer but can produce four images at once, while SPIR has the advantage of being more resistant to inhomogeneous magnetic fields. The purpose of this study was to determine the difference between T2WI SPIR and T2WI diagnostic image information Dixon Sagital Cut Lumbar MRI with Hernia Nucleus Pulposus (HNP) cases as well as find out which one is better between the two techniques. The type of research used is quantitative research with an experimental approach that uses prospective data aimed at determining the difference in diagnostic image information T2WI SPIR and T2WI Dixon MRI examination of Sagital Cuts. The study population is patients who perform Lumbar MRI examinations with HNP cases at the Radiology Installation of NTB Provincial Hospital for the period May-July 2023. This study applied total sampling, using a research sample of 17 patients. The results showed a difference in image information between the T2WI SPIR and T2WI Dixon sequences on Lumbar MRI examination of Sagital Cut with a p-velue value smaller than α (<0.05), namely in the anatomy of the Spinal Cord with a p-value (0.021), and the anatomy of the Corpus Vertebraewith value p-value (0.001). The T2 Spir sequence is more optimal in showing anatomical information on the Sagittal Cut lumbar MRI examination compared to the T2 Dixon sequence.  due to the more homogeneous emphasis of fat on the anatomy of the Spinal Cord and Corpus Vertebrae
