Abstract There are numerous uses for honorifics in different languages and dialects across the globe. Honorifics generally demand courtesy, amiability, intimacy, proximity, and tenderness. Whether or not the addressee is present, the revelation of any of these connotations is contingent upon the relationship between the speaker and the addressee as well as the addressee's status, age, state, and occupation. This essay addresses honorifics since they are a crucial component of spoken language, giving rise to a wide range of expressions that mirror speakers' feelings and the related social relationships in the real world. There are different functions and uses to honorifics in grammar, morphology and semantics that will be discussed. This paper's main aim is to compare/contrast honorifics in some Arabic cultures. Additionally, it seeks to provide a succinct explanation of honorifics and how they are used in dialects and other languages like English. The researcher creates two instruments to gather data in order to fulfill the goals of the study: direct observation and a survey of the literature on the subject. The model used for this analysis bases on. Grice’s (1975) Cooperative Principle. After stating these two hypotheses: Firstly, there are structural similarities and differences between honorifics in various Arabic and English-speaking nations across the globe. Secondly, honorific structures in Arabic-speaking nations differ from those in English; the study concludes that honorifics are used in all languages and dialects spoken around the world for a variety of objectives. Similar to English, honorifics in Arabic-speaking countries are impacted by the social and cultural distance between individuals. They may also make reference to the speakers' and addressees' socioeconomic class. The most regularly used honorific forms include the title or kinship word plus initial name, the kinship term by itself, titles by themselves, and teknonyms.

The Perceptual Keystones of Phonological Alteration in Arabic
Arabic language has a rich phonological textile which motivates several phonological processes involving phonetic alterations such as assimilation, substitution, and deletion. These processes have been tackled from different perspectives, yet, the process involving substitution or turning in Arabic which is called iqlab has never been tackled from a perceptual perspective. Accordingly, this study voices an interest in revealing the perceptual footings of iqlab using Gestalt Theory. Considering this objective, the main thrust of this study is to reveal the abidance of the rule of iqlab by the perceptual preferences of human perceptual system mirrored in Gestalt principles and to reveal the reflections of such preferences. After a thorough investigation, the results show that an inseparable relation exists between iqlab rules and the human perceptual preferences.

Stylistics from Traditional to Cognitive Approaches A Theoretical Perspective
Stylistics is constantly undergoing significant evolution since its classical origin in poetics and rhetoric. It is an interdisciplinary field that can bridge the gap between linguistics and literary studies. Based on the formalist traditions of the Russian formalists and Prague structuralists, stylistics has gradually expanded to incorporate cognitive sciences as analytical tools, maintaining empirical precision at its heart. The paper endeavours to highlight the preliminary concepts in stylistics, namely literariness and foregrounding, before charting the developmental pathway that the discipline has followed to finally become a fully-fledged discipline, including linguistic and literary stylistics. The methodological eclecticism this field exhibits is also highlighted, throwing light on its aptitude to embrace both computational development and cognitive models. The paper also offers insights into cognitive stylistics alongside other closely aligned fields, such as cognitive poetics and cognitive rhetoric, to account for textual engagement and mental processes involved in reading literature. The dual focus on both linguistic precision and the experiential parameters of cognitive stylistics is examined, with a particular emphasis on both traditional and cognitive approaches, highlighting the pivotal roles of the author, text, and reader in generating meaning. The paper finally offers two key conclusions: firstly, stylistics can best work as an operable tool based on replicable methodologies, coupled with its eclectic potential, and secondly, it highlights the essential role of cognitive stylistics in accounting for the close link between readers’ engagement and the textual structures that evoke it.

The role of artistic activities in reducing bullying among primary school students
Artistic activities are an important part of modern education. Along with other academic subjects, they form a system that aims to achieve comprehensive and balanced development of all aspects of the personality. These subjects have positive repercussions on the student's personality on the one hand, and on the development of ideas, skills, abilities, and information on the other. They seek to build an integrated individual who is balanced within himself and interacts with his environmental and social environment. Bullying is a widespread behavioral phenomenon that encompasses almost the entire world. This negative behavior is no longer limited to individuals, but has expanded to encompass most societies. Bullying has existed since the beginning of time. It is well-known and observed in the behavior of young children and students, although the motives, methods, goals, and results differ in each case. This behavior is one of the most significant problems facing those in charge of the educational process in general, and students in particular. This has prompted many scholars in the fields of medicine, sociology, and special education to study this behavior, considering it a problem with medical, psychological, social, and educational dimensions. It represents a major problem with negative effects that result in the child’s inability to establish acceptable social relationships with his colleagues, in addition to its negative impact on the student’s social environment in particular, and on his colleagues and peers.

Artistic activities (which the student learns in school develop his thoughts in a way that opens up a wide horizon of mental trends and ways of behaving for the individual, which gives a clear characteristic to his behavioral pattern. These trends are based on the individual using previous experiences and benefiting from them to reach the desired goal of forming an individual who acts wisely to solve the obstacles and problems that he faces without the need for emotions and showing bullying)

His analytical orientation on the grounds that the study of alienation in Darwish is considered the analytical , methodological axis of the prose and in order to achieve this it must preserved on pure analytical thought on the subject of alienation in Darwish`s prose. However the insightful reflection on Darwish`s prose actually shows a kind of strong flow of the issue of alienation especially with the prevalence of this term in the various sciences ,which called for its emergence among the poets of the resistance who live in the microscope in the addition to the massive media explosion of the subject of system the alienation ,which raided the most specific characteristic of individual life among them ,poets of the resistance to the Jewish occupation that has been occupying Palestine since 1948 as Darwish had the great and important role in covering his estrangement through his poetry and prose to the world about occupation while he is in estrangement far from the homeland but this matter should not obscure him from the other side of the analysis ,which is the analytical approach that Darwish emphasized in his poetry prose ,whether as cultural stock or as a system of general values ,even it was a declared form ,in addition to the survival of this analytical approach practicing its work in cultural institutions and others as active and guiding elements in the field of individual life and others.

Administrative investigation controls within the scope of public office
The administration's endeavor to protect and properly manage public facilities can only be achieved through the public employee, as he is the main tool through which the administration can carry out its responsibilities. Therefore, there is an existing relationship between him and the administration. Accordingly, the employee's rights must be preserved and respected in exchange for a set of duties and responsibilities that fall upon him. He must fulfill his job obligations to the fullest extent and not breach them, otherwise he will be subject to disciplinary action based on the violation committed by him. To prove this violation, an administrative investigation is required with him, and he is given the opportunity to defend himself, as the employee, by virtue of the nature of his job, may be subject to malice and accusation by the general public and his fellow employees on the one hand, and the administration's deviation from its discretionary authority towards him on the other hand. Therefore, he must be given sufficient opportunity to defend himself by presenting evidence and proving his innocence. This is done through an administrative investigation. Thus, the administrative investigation is an important guarantee for employee protection, through which the employee can defend himself before disciplinary punishment is imposed, because accusing the employee could raise rumours about his job reputation and undermine his social standing.

The development of Shiite political thought in Iraq (1905-1920)
Shiite political thought was an important and fundamental issue in knowing the development of this thought, understanding its structure to ensure a realistic historical vision by extrapolating the relationship of thought to power, and knowing the influences that determine the place of power in thought, taking into account the political and historical variables to which the Shiite movement was exposed and its effects that determined the position of power in Shiite political thought in an evolutionary context that began from isolation and strife and ended with participation and harmony in a stage in which thought matured with the theory of velayat-e faqih. Shiite political thought has put forward theories of power, governance and the state, as the features of the political contributions of the religious reference began since the late nineteenth century in the incident of tobacco and tobacco in Iran, then the development of the political composition of Shiite political thought, especially in Iraq following the Iranian constitutional revolutions in 1905, and the Ottoman revolutions in 1908, as these two revolutions contributed at the beginning of the twentieth century to leave a very important social and intellectual impact that helped activate the political intellectual awareness of Iraqi society, and the development of Political awareness in the seminary in Najaf, this experience has led to the openness of Shiite jurists to political and intellectual debate on issues of freedom, tyranny, the constitution and parliament, the rotation of power, and the limits of the jurist's intervention in the state.

ةThe Challenges Facing Jordanian Female Academics: An Applied Study in Some Jordanian Public Universities
Abstract This study aimed to analyze the relative importance of multidimensional challenges (administrative, community-related, academic, socio, economic, and personal) faced by female academics working in Jordanian public universities from their own perspectives. A descriptive-analytical approach was applied to a random sample of 886 female academics during the 2024 academic year. The research relied on developed scale to measure these challenges. The results indicated that the arithmetic means of all dimensions fell within a moderate level, with "administrative challenges" ranking first, followed by "community-related challenges" in second place, "academic challenges" in third, "social and economic challenges" in fourth, and finally "personal challenges" in fifth place. The findings also revealed statistically significant differences in the level of challenges attributed to demographic variables, including: Age group: in favor of those aged 60 years and above. Marital status: in favor of widows. Educational level: in favor of bachelor’s degree holders. Years of experience: in favor of those with 11–15 years of experience. These results highlight disparities in the experiences of female academics based on their demographic characteristics, underscoring the need for tailored institutional policies to address these multifaceted challenges.

Semiotics(Crying) Lady Zahra (peace be upon her)
Abstract The importance of this research is summarized in the fact that crying is one of the universal human phenomena, as a phenomenon that has transcended the apparent natural emotional framework to other frameworks beyond that framework, including philosophical and historical frameworks. The research is represented in the semiotics of the crying of Lady Zahra (peace be upon her), in studying this communicative act (non-linguistic) issued by Lady Zahra (peace be upon her), especially that crying that issued from her in the presence of her father (may God’s prayers be upon him and his family) when he asked her to approach him to tell her something while he was in his illness in which God took him, so she cried when he whispered in her ear and then laughed when he whispered in her ear again, and here we are facing two contradictory and mysterious communicative acts at the same time, their ambiguity lies in the evidence of their coming together at the same time, in addition to the ambiguity of what the Messenger confided to his daughter of news and details related to it, so the research represents an attempt to define this semiotic act (non-linguistic) and an attempt to read it according to the data that the semiotic method provides us, especially what is known as (semiotics of communication) with what is adjacent (The act of crying) is one of the linguistic acts that came in conjunction with it, to form as a whole a semiotic reading through which it was possible to deduce a group of eternal human meanings and values ​​in the personality of Lady Zahra (peace be upon her).

Algebra of linguistic structure in Arabic.
Summary of the research: It is known that the term "algebra" is a common term among mathematicians. They use it for the purpose of arriving at the simplest form of mathematical fractions and other matters related to mathematics. When we examined the books of Arab grammarians, we found that they use the term to indicate a specific matter that benefits strengthening in general. And to other meanings in a more specific way that will become clear in the course of the research, God Almighty willing. Among those meanings that they used in their explanations of the grammatical rules deduced by listening and analogy ekhdhis the meaning of "strength" resulting from "algebraizing the linguistic structure", for the purpose of arriving at a stronger meaning, in an easy way that does not require a stronger effort.

Brotherhood and sharing of Formulas is a manifestation of the development of noun structures in the Arabic language
Abstract The linguistic heritage of Arabic, and the books and studies that have resulted from it, has always been an inexhaustible source of ideas and opinions, including what grammarians have noticed of the existence of links between some morphological Formulas in terms of structure and function, which they have called the brotherhood of Formulas, or their sharing. This research aimed to investigate the dimensions of this idea in their works, and study the morphological forms that came as a confirmation of this idea, and research its causes, which were multiple and varied between dialectal motives, phonetic reasons, and the desire to renew and strengthen the rhetorical ability of the forms, and link all of that to what the linguistic study reached in the field of the development of structures, as another aspect of this development, as induction showed that this phenomenon is common in the Formulas of nouns with the diversity of their sections, and the difference in the morphological chapters to which they belong, such as the names of the self, sources, attributes, and broken plurals, and this led to presenting the opinions of researchers who sought to clarify the relationship between these sections in their emergence and advancement, and studying and discussing them and supporting what was likely to be correct from them, and weakening and rejecting what was shown to be weak and its incorrectness was clear, arriving at extracting the most important results in the conclusion of the research.

The Qur'anic Framework for the Establishment of a Peacefully Coexisting Society
Abstract Undoubtedly, peaceful coexistence is a common message for all religions. It can be achieved when followers of different faiths engage in dialogue to deepen their understanding of one another. Dialogue is effective when it adheres to its principles and rules, including justice toward the People of the Book, respect for international treaties and agreements, truce and compromise, and non-aggression against followers of other religions. It cannot be denied that all divine religions and prophets preach monotheism and saviors of humanity, calling for peace and good treatment of followers of other faiths. However, over time, as a result of straying from the teachings of God's saints, followers of certain religions gradually began to accept deviations and began to reject peaceful coexistence with followers of other faiths. In contrast, Islam requires Muslims to interact with others in a peaceful and just manner. From an Islamic perspective, peace and peaceful coexistence among people of different faiths and sects represent a sublime value and a primary goal. Numerous Quranic verses and authentic hadiths affirm this principle. This article aims to articulate methods of peaceful coexistence in Islam and its broad perspective on accepting differences, diversity, and the other. It also seeks to clarify Islam's vision of eliminating any cruelty or violence in dealing with others and promoting the values ​​of tolerance, justice, and mercy through understanding and applying Islamic principles in this area.

Jurisprudential Ijtihad: Between Renewal and ReformulationA Study in the Contemporary Najaf School
Abstract Ijtihad that does not end in renewal will naturally be (repetition), or let us say that as long as it adheres to the implementation of the method and known controls of reasoning, it can be (recast) of data that may extend over long periods of time. This does not mean that rephrasing according to the usual method does not perform an effective function. It certainly has a significant impact in directing texts and words, but perhaps a large part of the cognitive heritage of a current reality requires that rephrasing. According to the above, the hypothesis of the study that we adopted is that “the diligent cultural lesson, unless it leads to effective renewal, is nothing but a reformulation.” We are trying to apply this to the contemporary Najaf scientific school, especially the efforts that were concluded by Sayyid Muhammad Baqir al-Sadr (d. 1980 AD). which follows the course of the cultural lesson in the seminary in Najaf to this day, and in which lies the controversy that takes place between (renewal and reformulation). We will attempt to address this problem objectively, in adherence to the hypothesis we have established.

Orchestration in the Colouring of Iraqi Kurdish Orchestral Compositions“Hope for Orchestra” as a model
Abstract This is an experimental study that explores the dimensions and possibilities of orchestration in colouring Kurdish orchestral works in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq through a work written by the researcher specifically for this study entitled "Hope for Orchestra". The research presents a suitable scientific model for Kurdish orchestral music composition for students of the Department of Music Composition at the College of Fine Arts at the University of Sulaymaniyah in particular, and for music students in other Iraqi universities in general. When writing the piece, the researcher tried to show the new sound colours in the orchestral writing of Iraqi Kurdish music and to highlight most of the tonal possibilities of the families present in the orchestra, such as the string, woodwind, brass and percussion families, in an educational and appropriate way for teaching orchestration and music composition at the university. It is clear that the basic concepts of studying orchestral music in the Department of Music Composition include studying the families of musical instruments, where students get to know the families of different orchestral musical instruments and their characteristics. In order to investigate and analyse these elements through a local musical piece during teaching, the researcher tried to write "Hope for Orchestra" in a way that is suitable for studying the module of orchestration and music composition for students on the one hand, and to reveal new tonal colours suitable for Iraqi Kurdish orchestral music on the other hand.

Principles of administrative investigation within Iraqi administrative law
Abstract The administrative organization was based on the executive management called (employees), despite the different methods of their selection, the nature of the relationship that linked them to the state at that time, and their small number... and after the state rose in the city and progress, and after the administrative organization became the prominent feature that distinguishes the modern state that It has transformed from a traditional state (a guardian state) into a non-traditional state based on serving individuals and ensuring their comfort. The administrative organization is complex, the number of employees is large, and the legislation that regulates multiple careers is clear.It was natural, and as a result of all of this, that it would not be unlikely that (the employee only here and there) would issue a difference in the law in the case of negligence and implementation of duties in other cases. Likewise, laws legislate in every country to address individuals and punish them if they refrain from implementing its orders and carry out its prohibitions. The employee today is not excluded from his job (responsibility) whenever his negligence in performing duties is proven or he is proven to have committed prohibitions. Perhaps the way to prove this responsibility against the employee is what is known as (administrative investigation), which is the main channel through which (disciplinary responsibility) is proven. For the employee, but through this investigation it becomes clear that the employee has committed a criminal act arising from or because of the job (a crime), which then begins to approach the judicial authorities.

Abstract The South China Sea is a region of great strategic and economic importance to China, as it connects the Pacific Ocean to the Indian Ocean, a large proportion of global trade passes through it, and contains rich resources of oil, natural gas and fisheries. China seeks to achieve its interests in this region by strengthening its influence and securing energy supplies, as it builds artificial islands and develops military infrastructure, reflecting its desire to impose its control over this vital region. However, China faces multiple challenges, most notably the increasing US military presence that puts pressure on China and complicates its regional ambitions. These factors combined increase the likelihood of tensions in the region, which calls for effective diplomatic measures to ensure stability.
