Protection of Minorities under Islamic Jurisprudence

Abstract Islam is the religion of a peace-oriented system that depends upon the duties and rights of its citizens. Any political system that fulfils the basic needs of its system lives longer than those systems that corrupt the rights of its citizens. Moreover, the soundness of any political system depends upon its provisions which govern and fulfil the basic spiritual and biological needs of human beings and its allowance for change. Aside from spiritual and moral aspects of the creed which are permanently established, Islam provides broad principles and frameworks in the area of worldly interactions which makes it possible for the Muslim community to evolve and meet the needs of every period. Its soundness lies in its protection of minorities and providing them with all basic facilities to grow up as sound human beings free from all sorts of discrimination.

Victims frequently experience much disappointment with the pastoral or congregational support they receive in the aftermath of their disclosure, which critically exacerbates their primary traumatic overwhelm and causes various faith-related challenges collectively known as spiritual struggle (Doyle in Sexual abuse in the Catholic clergy: A decade of crisis, 2002–2012 (pp. 171–182).

The healing impact of travel on the mental health of breast cancer patients

This study explores how breast cancer patients engage in travel and how travel may improve patients’ mental health. Data were collected from 31 breast cancer participants through interviews, and conventional content analysis was conducted. The results indicate that breast cancer patients participate in various travel activities that encompass natural, spiritual, interpersonal, cultural, and social aspects, and travel memories, including past travel nostalgia and future travel imagination. Using the chronic illness trajectory model, the study identifies three key healing roles of travel: mitigating death anxiety during the diagnosis stage, relieving psychological stress during the treatment stage, and promoting systematic recovery during the survivorship stage. These findings support the integration of travel-related interventions into the treatment and care of breast cancer patients.

Palliative care considerations in frail older adults.

Frailty is a common geriatric syndrome characterized by a decline in physical and cognitive abilities and an increased vulnerability to stressors such as illnesses and injuries. As the global population is aging, the prevalence of frailty is growing. Frail older adults are at substantial risk of developing mobility and self-care difficulties, hospitalization, and death. Frailty is also associated with a high symptom burden and psychosocial stress, including malnutrition, pain, fatigue, weakness, cognitive loss, depression, falls, and sleep disorders, among others. The role of palliative care is gaining attention in medical literature because frailty is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. While there are no specific guidelines yet for when palliative care should be consulted in older patients with frailty, it has been proposed that palliative care should be considered in frail patients with continued functional decline, increased healthcare utilization, and uncontrolled symptoms. Palliative care can aid in communication with patients and families, establishing goals of care and treatment preferences, improving pain and symptom control, addressing psychosocial and spiritual needs, advance care planning, caregiver needs, and end-of-life care. Once frailty is identified, a comprehensive evaluation of the patient's physical, psychosocial, and spiritual aspects of care is essential for establishing a patient-centered treatment plan. This paper aims to guide clinicians in providing patient-centered care for older adults with frailty in the outpatient setting. Through a comprehensive literature review, we describe the leading models of frailty, frailty screening tools used in the clinical setting, and the assessment and management of palliative care needs in frail patients. We also describe emerging models of care focusing on palliative care for older adults with frailty and discuss issues related to access to palliative care for this population.
