...Social media’s role in 2011 Egyptian revolution Egyptian revolution in 2011 was part of Arab Spring, a series of demonstrations, protests and revolutions. All of those revolts have one thing in common and it is the important role of social media. This essay is going to investigate the social media’s effect on Arab Spring, particularly on the revolution in Egypt. Social media have a great power, because thanks to them, people can share their thoughts in every single minute of their life. Even though there are other ways of communication, social media, such as blogs, Twitter or Facebook, had a great impact on Egyptian revolution in 2011 because people could organize their dissidence fast and could easily share their ideas of the free Egypt. When Hosni Mubarak became a president in 1981, he became suppressing all his opponents. People were not happy, but they were not united in order to oppose Mubarak. Everyone trying to oppose Mubarak without the support of the people put his life and lives of his family into the risk. There was no simple nor easy way to connect with people who shared the same opinion about the government, because having such a discussion at any public place was dangerous at that time. Although it was possible to find people with the same political views, the idea of making any non-violent protest was unrealistic. To make such a protest many people need to join the demonstration, but without internet, people couldn’t share the information about the demonstration...

...Collapse University Course Professor’s Name Date of Submission Collapse Turnaround is a state that helps a company or an organization to recover financially that has been performing poorly for a longer period. An example of a company which has once experienced turnaround is The Spring leaf Holdings based in Evansville Indiana. The company deals with credit insurance and consumer lending. The company reported a loss of $1.3 billion during the 2007-2012 global financial crises. The turnaround came in 2013 whereby the company had to strategize on the right direction. It closed over 500 local branches and was forced to retrench 500 positions that included 140 of their Evansville headquarter employees. The company also continued to grow receivables per branch and reached that objective in the financial year 2014.That helped the company to drive Core Earnings up 42% from the previous 2013 financial year. Through gradual improvement, the turnaround was effective, and it improved the company’s profitability by 22 percent in 2014 financial year (Gilson, 2010). Some changes and developments are currently taking place in the field of HR management. HR policy is being defined and implemented to strengthen the performance of the company and develop the skills of employees to hasten its recovery. The purpose of implementing the policy of the HR is to prevent the company from collapsing. Managerial culture is being developed to put in place annual performance reviews, a training program and...

...Read the assigned article and explain the main point of the article and whether you agree or disagree with the author and why? Did reading this article raise any questions in your mind? If so, share them with your group and try to find an answer From my perspective the article main point was based on equality between Muslim men and women. When reading the article I found it interesting when the author states, “We do not speak of ‘women’ in general and thus exclude her from the legal discourse describing a Muslim’s duties.” From my stand point, many individuals from the Western Countries believe Muslim women are excluded in many possessions like higher education, employment, and political actions but in reality they have equal rights just as men do. Hawa, I like your interpretation of the article and agree with you when you stated Islam does not discriminate women, and they have a God given rights that no one can deny. <<< Replied to message below >>> Authored by: Hawa Ali Authored on: Sep 30, 2013 8:55 PM Subject: Political Competence of Women in Islamic Law In this article, the author describes well the role of political participation of the women in Islam. There is no question that women took a big role in Islamic societies in the past and the present time. Beside, Islam does not discriminate women, and they have a God given rights that no one can deny them. When God created men, He did not favor them over the women. He says, “We have created...

...position of the Muslims in the Sub-continent was quite pathetic and Muslims were going through a social and financial crisis, Sir Syed Ahmed Khan came to the forefront and created awareness amongst Muslims about the importance of education and a lifestyle which was closer to the British. Sir Syed Ahmed Khan made sure that the Muslims understood the importance of the modern education and science, so that they could compete with the Hindus and could claim their rights for the job opportunities and a better lifestyle. Sir Syed started Aligarh Movement, which had a motto of promoting education amongst the Muslims after the revolt of 1857. He fought against the Hindu conspiracies against Urdu. Risala-dar-Asbab-i-Bhagawati-i-Hind, Ahkam-i-Ta’am-i-Ahl-i-Kitab and Loyal Mohammadans of India were some of his best works. He started various schools and colleges where English language was taught with Urdu and Persian. He founded a Scientific Society where he started the periodical which was first called Scientific Society Papers and later, the Aligarh Institute Gazette. Sir Syed Ahmed Khan played a significant role in reshaping the public opinion amongst the Muslims. After 1857, Sir Syed had realized that it is very hard for Muslims to survive with the Hindus but still he was in favour of the United India until the Urdu-Hindi controversy. Sir Syed Ahmed Khan would always be remembered in the history books as a revolutionary leader who gave a new direction to the Muslims of the Sub-continent...

...POLITICAL ASPECTS OF ALIGARH MOVEMENT ALI RAZA I13-0292 POLITICAL ASPECTS OF ALIGARH MOVEMENT ALI RAZA I13-0292 Background After the war of independence Muslims suffered the most. They lost everything they had and they were held sole responsible for that. It is not wrong to say that they actually lost their identity. At that time Sir Syed was the person who realized that in order to gain the lost reputation and to uplift the Muslims, they should be strong enough to have political rights and that is only possible if they had enough modern education. Like Hindus who have their own political party due to which they are enjoying their political rights and they had good jobs, it require Muslims to strive hard if they want to exist that is acquisition of modern education. He said that “All the socio-political ills of India may be cured by education: cure the root, the tree will flourish”. Sir Syed’s work for Muslims was a movement called Aligarh movement. Aligarh movement was all about the betterment of Muslims from every point of view. It was the first step towards the creation of a new state for the Muslims of India (Pakistan). It was a huge step taken by Sir Syed and actually he had some long term plan for Muslims. After Urdu-Hindi controversy (Hindu wanted Hindi as official language and to replace ) in 1867 it was clear that Hindus are not in favor of Muslims in any way and they had no soft side for Muslims and they want to crush the Muslims by any means.

...Ahmed Zaki Yamani Ahmed Zaki Yamani is a specialist in law and Islamic law. He was born in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. He attended Cairo University, New York University Law School and Harvard University School. He received his LL.M from Harvard. Yamani later went on to serve as advisor to the Saudi government in 1958. In 1962 he became Saudi Arabia’s minister of petroleum until 1986 and became OPEC’s first secretary General. Yamani is known as the founder of many of the kingdom’s modern laws and regulations. His article “the Political Competence of Women and Law” he discusses the controversial topic of women participating in public life in Islamic societies. He believes that “men and women are equal in their human value, their social rights, their responsibilities and their subjection to reward and punishment. (pg 171)” He says that when speaking of political competence in Islam we need to distinct it from the western concept. Westerners see political competence it as a right, while in Islam it is seen as action. An action has to be performed while a right does not have to be performed. However a political action in Islam does not have to be performed by every citizen, just by a sufficient amount of citizens so that the others are relieved of it. This action includes women. As long as a woman is educated and is aware of the current politics then he sees here no different from a man. Yamani believes that Islam does not prohibit nor try to minimize the participation of women in...
