The Spatial Variation of Population in Al-Kut City’s NeighborhoodsUsing Quantitative Classification Methods
This research studies how the number of people living in the neighborhoods of Al-Kut city has changed over time. It compares the number and percentage of people in each neighborhood in the years 1997 and 2023. The study uses statistical analysis to measure the total increase in population and how it changed over the years It also uses a method called logarithmic transformation to divide the neighborhoods into three groups based on how many people live in them: high, medium, and low population density. The results show that the number of neighborhoods increased by about six between 1997 and 2023. Also, the number of neighborhoods with high population density grew from only 4 in 1997 to 16 in 2023. This means that more people are now living in a smaller number of neighborhoods, showing a clear population concentration

The Differences in Interpretation of Surah At-Takathur between Sayyid Al-Tabataba'i and Al-Huwaizi(A Descriptive Analytical Study)
This study examines the interpretive differences between two prominent Islamic exegetes: Sayyid Muhammad Husayn Tabatabai in his work Al-Mizan and Sheikh Abdul Ali Al-Huwaizi in his work Nur Al-Thaqalayn. The focus is on analyzing their respective interpretations of Surat Al-Takathur, highlighting their differing perspectives through a descriptive and analytical approach. Sayyid Tabatabai, recognized for his comprehensive knowledge in various sciences, relies heavily on authentic narrations from the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and his progeny) and the infallible Imams (peace be upon them) while balancing between Quranic verses and scholarly opinions. On the other hand, Sheikh Al-Huwaizi's methodology emphasizes a different exegetical approach. This study aims to uncover the distinct viewpoints presented in their interpretations.

The Tragic Tendency in the Poems of David Simony
David Shimoni appeared on the scene of Hebrew literature in the first decade of the twentieth century and quickly joined the group of poets of his generation who were contemporary with Bialik, as they became pioneers in modern Hebrew literature. It is known that that era left its mark on all the creators of the generation and their works. Hence, the essence of the problems faced by Jews who were in the diaspora, especially those living in Europe, is diminished by aspiring to a new life in the homeland of their fathers, as they described it, in the East (Palestine). In most of his poems, Shimoni sang about his birthplace and the homeland of his family (Moscow). Likewise, Jerusalem was a large part of those poems, as this writer mixed his homeland in the north and compared it to the homeland of his ancestors “according to his claim” in order for this to be a means of influencing the reader. Stylistically, his poems are characterized by dense language, rich poetic imagery, and a melancholic rhythm, which lends the text a dramatic tone. It is noteworthy that, despite the tragic content, there is an implicit call for reflection and reconciliation with pain as part of the human experience. Shimoni wrote some of his poems that were characterized by sadness, and this reflects the psychological state of the poet. That is why we saw that this topic is worth examining, which is the tragic trend. Since Shimoni has given quite a bit of space. The poet created tragedy from the womb of pastoral chant and from the medium of his lyrical poetry, and mixed the two together to produce extremely beautiful poems that have a great impact on his audience.

Contemporary Criminal Policy and Its Impact on the Development of Penal Law
Current developments in any country impose a complete review of its legal system in general and the penal system in particular, because the legislation in force may not be consistent with the contemporary stage that followed the previous stage. This development that follows that stage must be in line with the criminal policy adopted by the legislator in the areas of criminalization and punishment to achieve the optimal level of achieving the interest of the group and ensuring that the development keeps pace with the prevailing social values ​​that guarantee the state’s right to impose punishment, protect society from violations, and confront deviations and forms of behavior that disrupt the security and order of society. Therefore, the legislator may find himself facing a major task represented in reviewing all legislation that may conflict with the new conditions. In doing so, he takes legal paths that enable him to amend or abolish the legislation in force to be consistent with a modern criminal policy.

Teaching English Pronunciation through Phonetic Training: A Comparative Study Among English Teacher Trainees at the Open Educational College in Al-Suwaira, Wasit Province, Iraq
This study explores the importance of phonetic training in investigating the effectiveness of improving English pronunciation among teacher trainees at the Open Educational College in Al-Suwaira, Wasit Province. The research seeks to examine the effectiveness of a method of phonetic training to help prospective teachers to improve their abilities to produce speech sounds accurately, taking into account the contrasts between phonetic training and traditional pronunciation teaching. The research was carried out in two phases; pre-test and post-test including 50 EFL learners grouped into two. The participants were tested for correctly pronouncing the difficult consonants of English and clusters of consonants in English that are not present in Arabic (e.g., /p/, /ʒ/, /ŋ/ and /tʃ/). The study had two parts; a pre-test and a post-test were administered to 50 EFL learners in two groups. English Consonants and Consonant Clusters' Production:It would be informative for second language researchers as well to see how participants produce the "hard" English consonants and consonant clusters' selected in the present study (and which are not phonemic in Arabic), such as /p/, /ʒ/, /ŋ/, and /tʃ/. The majority of phoneme errors concerned phonological differences between Arabic and English, prevocalic consonant clusters and damage with consonant clusters, (see pre-test below) most commonly occurring as substitution errors. The accuracy of target pronunciation was considerably enhanced for the post-test after phonetic training.This is testament to the fact that the phonetic training program, which was informed by the use of the IPA for pronunciation instruction and the incorporation of targeted pronunciation exercise in course design, was more effective in obtaining impressive gains in accuracy of problem segments and in eliminating problematic errors than the traditional instruction. The findings of the study may imply that phonetic training offers the opportunity to improve pronunciation skills and consequently, the quality of English language teaching in Iraq, there is potential for enhancement in English language teaching skills and teacher trainees that, including future learners, which they will affect. In this sense the results of the research may also suggest that there is ample scope for phonetic training to be employed to raise pronunciation skills and, thereby, the quality of English language teaching in Iraq, and that English language teaching skills and teacher trainees and teachers, not to mention future learners, can be improved by such training.

The Extent of Geography Teachers' Awareness of the Dimensions of Sustainable Development
The current research aims to identify the level of knowledge that geography teachers possess regarding the three dimensions of sustainable development: social, economic, and environmental. A questionnaire consisting of 26 items was prepared, with 19 items covering the three dimensions, and was administered to a sample of 100 male and female teachers from various secondary schools in the Karkh and Rusafa directorates in Baghdad Governorate. The study adopted a descriptive analytical approach, and data were analyzed using Excel. A three-point Likert scale was used to determine the level of responses (Disagree, Neutral, Agree). The results revealed that the social and economic dimensions each had two items with a high level of agreement, while the remaining items scored a moderate level. In contrast, the environmental dimension received only one item with a high level of agreement and five items with a moderate level. The overall average for all dimensions indicated that the level of knowledge falls within the "moderate" range. This suggests that teachers have a basic understanding, but it needs further development and deepening, particularly in environmental aspects. The study recommended the need to strengthen the dimensions of sustainable development in the training programs for geography teachers and to effectively integrate them into the school curricula.

Diseases Affecting Livestock in Al-Shuhaymiyah Sub-Districtfor the Year (2023–2024)
The research aims to identify the diseases affecting livestock in the Al-Shuhaymiyah sub-district based on agricultural districts. Al-Shuhaymiyah possesses a large livestock population, estimated at around 34,603 heads, distributed among cattle, buffalo, sheep, and goats. The role of labor and experience in animal husbandry plays a significant part in explaining the spatial variation in livestock numbers between one district and another for the year 2023–2024. In addition, the size of the agricultural areas across different parts of the study region also plays a role, Despite the large number of livestock, the diseases affecting them result in reduced production of milk and meat, and in some cases, lead to animal deaths, which negatively impacts livestock numbers in the Al-Shuhaymiyah sub-district. This is despite the availability of large areas suitable for growing fodder crops such as alfalfa, clover, and mixed feeds, As for the key findings of the research, the total number of recorded disease cases reached 10,516. Among them, miscellaneous diseases had the highest incidence with 4,035 cases, while fungal diseases had the lowest, with 874 cases. The study also concluded that some diseases, such as hemorrhagic fever, cannot be controlled and may result in the death of the infected animal.

Purging the Government Apparatus in Iraq 1958-1963: A Historical Study of it’s Legislative Process.
The policy of purging the government apparatus was one of the first steps of the July 14, 1958 Revolution, in the administrative aspect, to establish the principles of integrity. Therefore, it was necessary to address the issue due to its importance, given that Iraqis have been practicing civil service since the Ottoman and British eras. The study aimed to reduce corruption, including bribery and favoritism, eliminate dishonest elements, and develop a sense of national responsibility through efficient and dedicated work. Legislative purification procedures began with the issuance of Law No. (20) of 1931 on the Discipline of State Employees, to remove corrupt employees; Law No. (36) of 1936 on Discipline, which adopted the principle of gradual punishment; and Law No. (66) of 1956 on the Coordination of the Government Apparatus, to remove those proven to have misconduct. Despite the measures taken during the royal era, the results were negative, due to political reasons and the increasing number of unqualified employees, until the outbreak of the July 14 Revolution, which gave importance to the issue and enacted a law entitled "Purification." Governmental apparatus No. (2) of 1958 AD, to get rid of the weak elements that controlled administrative positions as a result of corruption, the republican era was crowned by dispensing with the services of some state employees, especially those who followed the previous administration without taking into account the experience possessed by these employees. The law went through four amendments in accordance with the requirements of the administrative and political stage. Therefore, the purification of the government apparatus was accompanied by major harbingers as a result of the work of the purification committees in the ministries and departments that worked according to personal and partisan interests, and the emergence of the military governor’s department as the highest authority in the country due to the prevalence of martial law and the organization of popular resistance and republican maintenance committees. These formations began to interfere in the affairs of employees in violation of the purification law and the civil service law. Therefore, the purification policy during the period 1958-1963 AD and the period that preceded it did not achieve its goals of creating an efficient and honest administrative apparatus that works for the public interest. Rather, the purification turned to ensuring loyalty to the political system through the employee class without advancing the government apparatus, taking into consideration that corruption was very limited at that time, however, what is unfortunate now that But what is unfortunate now that Iraq is ahead of other countries in corruption.

Fukuyama's opinion about the end of history and its evidence to show
The philosophy of history has held significant importance among historical and social sciences, as it plays a guiding and directing role in shaping the foundational knowledge in philosophical and ideological systems that contribute to outlining strategic, political, and economic projects. Europe has been considered a case since the emergence of the philosophy of Aryan supremacy leading up to modern America. Despite this, the Islamic nation, with its diverse national components, remains unaware of all this, until the actual value of the philosophy of history and its significant impact in providing the ability to delineate suitable social and political systems emerges, which leads to providing opportunities to take the initiative in planning for a civilizational resurgence that changes the nation’s reality for the better. Hence, this study is based on the claim that the product of Islamic thought in the philosophy of history represents a rich intellectual treasure on the distinctive historical level, as it also has a variety of perspectives while always retaining its identity. It is a treasure of clear authenticity drawn initially from the inspiration of the Quran, and then the awareness of historical experiences and the development of methods among Muslims. The notion of "the end of history" is not a product of the modern era but is as ancient as humanity itself. The first human, from an anthropological perspective, believed in the idea of the end of the world associated with history; the end for him did not exceed a day or a month but was ideologically linked to the sorcerer and the astrologer. Prophecy played a prominent role in shaping this idea, namely - the end of history and the last human - which was proposed by the American philosopher of Japanese descent Francis Fukuyama, where Fukuyama presents his fundamental theory that liberal democracy with its values of freedom, individuality, equality, popular sovereignty, and principles of economic liberalism shapes the end of humanity and humankind

Carmen Maury: Between the illusion of loyalty to the Nazi regime and the reality of personal ambition (A study of its espionage activity 1906-1947)
The spy Carmen Mori from the characters controversial some researchers classify her as an example of duality and contradiction due to her life story. She is thorny, cunning, intelligent, charismatic and has an overwhelming presence. Carmen Mori's travels across Europe and her mastery of several languages enabled her to work as an espionage agent for the Gestapo in Germany. The experiences she lived and the various situations she encountered also shaped and changed her personality, particularly during her time in Ravensbürk, ending with her dramatic trial and appearance in a fur coat, making her look like a movie actress rather than someone accused of brutal crimes. This prompted the researcher to start from this problematic and attempt to answer the central question: "Was Carmen Mori convinced and willing to serve the Nazi regime through her work as an espionage agent for the Gestapo, or did her desires, personal ambition, and love of adventure play a role in determining her choice to serve the Nazi regime?" Carmen Mori found her calling and someone who embraced her aspirations and desire for adventure and social advancement in the Gestapo, especially after her disappointment at not being able to achieve her dream of singing. The operation became a mutual benefit for both parties. It is worth noting that she enjoyed espionage operations, not because she believed in Nazi ideology, especially since she was of Swiss origin, but because through these missions she enjoyed money, power and influence. The years Carmen spent in prisons in France after spying on the Maginot Line, then in Germany after the fall of France at the hands of German forces, ending with years of solitary confinement in the infamous Ravensbrück camp, may have played a major role in influencing her behavior, which many considered brutal, deserving of harsh titles despite her justifications in court that she was acting this way to stay alive. Certainly, circumstances can play a role in influencing human behavior, but without the presence of sediments or a basis for this behavior, it cannot be transformed into real behavior on the ground.

The Position Of Woman From the Perspective Of Man In The Light Of the Holy Qur’an
This research addresses The Position of Woman from the Perspective of Man in the Light of the Holy Qur’an, aiming to uncover Qur’anic standards that transcend human perceptions and man-made criteria in evaluating women. It traced the transformation of women’s status from marginalization to honor. It adopted the inductive-analytical methodology, analyzing Qur’anic verses related to the woman-man relationship in light of exegetical interpretations, connecting them to historical and social contexts. What distinguished this research, that its avoidance of the commonly discussed rights and duties, instead focusing on the value-based structure of the Qur’anic discourse. It cited examples of both believing and disbelieving women to demonstrate that the Qur’an's criterion of dignity is piety and righteous action, not lineage or proximity to men.

Additionally, it examines whether there are differences in psychological problems based on certain variables, such as students’ specialties (Humanities versus Sciences), gender (male and female), and academic stage (second and fourth years). Two hundred and twenty-nine students from eight different departments within the College of Basic Education participated in the current study. To measure psychological problems a questionnaire was prepared by the researchers after assessing various psychometric properties, including validity and reliability. A satisfactory Cronbach’s alpha of 0.76 and a split-half reliability coefficient of 0.72 were obtained respectively. The normality of the data was assessed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, which indicated no significant deviations from normality (p-value for the Kolmogorov test > 0.05). Descriptive statistics (means and standard deviations), one-sample t-tests, and independent sample t-tests were utilized for data analysis. The findings revealed that students in the College of Basic Education exhibited a low level of psychological problems. Notably, there were no statistically significant differences in psychological problems based on students’ specialties and gender. However, a statistically significant difference was found based on academic stage, suggesting that students in the fourth-year experience more psychological problems than those in the second year. In the light of these findings, several recommendations and suggestions were highlighted.

Urban expansion on agricultural lands and green areas in the city of Tarmiyah for the year (2023)
This study addressed the phenomenon of urban expansion on agricultural lands and green areas in the city of Tarmia and its negative economic and even environmental impacts in this city. This study aims to identify the economic and environmental impacts resulting from the random agricultural expansion in the city of Tarmia. This research concluded that urban expansion on agricultural lands in the city of Tarmia occurred due to population growth and rising real estate prices. There are no serious and clear solutions to address the crisis of the increasing number of residents in this city, which has led most citizens to buy cheap agricultural plots of land and also to encroach on green areas and build houses randomly. This is due to the lack of follow-up from planning agencies from the municipal council, and most of these lands are owned by the Ministry of Agriculture. The researcher suggests that there be strict penalties for those who encroach on agricultural lands and green areas. There must be continuous monitoring and guidance to build in areas suitable for housing and not to affect agricultural lands and green areas.
