The valuable book of Nahj al-Mustarshidīn fī ‘Uṣūl al-Dīn is one of the small and concise works of ‘Allāmah Ḥillī (d. 726 AH) which, according to him, was written for the use of seekers of certainty. Due to the brevity and comprehensiveness of this book on theological issues, students of  ‘Allāmah and the theologians living in his era as well as Imami scholars of later periods have paid special attention to the description and interpretation of this theological work. The book M'irāj al-Yaqīn fī Sharh Nahj al-Mustarshidīn written by the son of Allāmah Ḥillī, Muhammad ibn Hassan, known as Fakhr al-Muhaqiqīn (d. 771 AH), is one of these commentaries, which was researched by Mr. Tāhir al-Salami.

It is about a half-century since the intellectual foundations of the concept of Islamic art have been dramatically challenged. This new trend has been culminated after the end of the colonial era, setting the stage for the spread of Islamic thought, the consequent establishment of Islamic Art museums in the West, and later, through the September 11 attacks. Simultaneously, the museology became a beneficial approach towards the study of the arts of Islamic regions through which the museum plays a crucial role in creating the knowledge of Islamic Art. Published in 2012, “Islamic Art and the Museum; Approaches to Art and Archeology of the Muslim World in the Twenty-First Century” was the first in this area. Using content analysis and taking a muselogical view, the current study recognizes the main approaches towards the representation of Islamic Art in American and European museums. The results show that although it is a worthwhile source with main challenges included, it can be criticized in terms of its fundamental approach towards the museum, the hegemony of historiographical point of view, the problematic relationship between some articles and titles, and its emphasis on one or two geographical areas.

Teaching different foreign languages and related literature was nearly started since establishing universities in Iran. But Linguistics Departments were developed nearly half a century ago. After a while, the syllabi were reviewed; new fields have been started; and lots of works were published and thus the development of the studied happened. It is clear that due to the increase of the number of students (admission rate) and adding up the number of related works, reviewing and criticizing them could be useful. In this article, the ratio of the students in Linguistics and all foreign language studies to all other students were estimated. Then, the importance of reviewing the references in the fields of study were highlighted. Finally, some suggestions for a better academic development of Linguistics and foreign languages studies will be mentioned.

Natural Semantic Metalanguage (NSM) approach is one of the most outstanding attempts at contemporary semantics to analyze and describe meaning cross-culturally, originated by Anna Wierzbicka. This approach claims that there are a number of universal concepts, called ‘semantic primitives’, through which any simple or complex meaning in any language can be described. It may further act as a tool for cutting across the differentiating borders of various cultures with the aim of semantic description and cross-cultural semantics. Moreover, many works have applied this approach to more than 30 languages, adding to the list of semantic primes. The present paper intends to review Wierzbicka’s book entitled “Cross-Cultural Pragmatics: The Semantics of Human Interaction” (2003), aiming at presenting her framework, looking through chapters and discussing the pros and cons and basic tenets of her approach. Finally, the paper concludes that the NSM approach is certainly promising and valuable for cross-linguistic and cross-cultural descriptions, however, a number of groundless claims should be avoided.

Chomsky's innate theory of language has had a significant impact on first language acquisition studies. The studies in the 60s through 80s focused on child language in order to recognize the stages of development, and propose new theories forbetter understanding of first language acquisition. The current study aims to: 1.Review the first language acquisition and development theories in general, and 2. review and analyze the previous studies on the acquisition and development of Farsi as a first language in particular to reveal the current status of research findings in the field. To these aims, the related studies were referred to in three indexing resources: Magiran, Noormags, SID from 1365 to 1394. Seventy-six articles were found and put into five categories: causal-correlational, descriptive, review, comparative, and reliability and validity studies. The analysis of the findings indicated that most of the studies have been conducted in the field of rehabilitation, considering variables relating to language acquisition and development impairment. There were a few descriptive studies investigating the development of Farsi as a first language. Finally, the research designs seem to be ignorant of Tomasello's usage-based theory, Bruner's pragmatic theory, Halliday's functional theory, and Vygotsky's sociocultural theory of learning.

It begins with a quick review of historical evolution of GIS applications in law enforcement from prototype computerized crime mapping to sophisticated spatial analysis and its integration in policing practices. Six major areas of GIS applications in police and policing are discussed with case studies to illustrate the value of GIS as (1) a partner for field officers, (2) a crime investigation and prevention tool, (3) a policy implementation and evaluation tool, (4) a police force planning tool, (5) a tool for testing crime theories, and (6) a communication tool. The article is concluded with an outlook for some emerging trends.

The purpose of this article was to analyze English language teaching program for students with intellectual disabilities, and review the English course book (student book and workbook developed for 7th graders with intellectual disabilities) as well as the teachers’ guide. The method applied was descriptive–analytic. Regarding the proposed criteria by the Council for Reviewing Books and Texts on Humanities, areas of strength and weak points in terms of form and content were presented. The vital strong points were presenting frequent language functions and social routines, and color printing of the student book. The crucial weaknesses included the old-fashioned way of teaching English alphabets, the inappropriate method of introducing numbers, designing improper activities regarding the students’ capabilities, and the low quality of the pictures both in student book and workbook. For reviewing the teacher’s guide, the evaluation criteria proposed by Hemsley (1997) known as global evaluation and detailed evaluation, has been applied. The strong points of the teachers’ guide were providing clear teaching guidelines, considering learning procedures based on recent researches and modern theories, presenting the objective of the course, and providing appropriate guidelines for evaluation. Some of the weaknesses were ignoring students’ different learning styles, not introducing appropriate way of error correction, and inappropriate bookbinding. At last, series of suggestions were proposed to ameliorate both the quality and the content of the course book and work book considering the students’ capabilities.

The book “Fi al-nass al-adabi: Dirasah uslubiyah ihsaiyah” written by Dr Saad Moslouh and published in 1993, is one of the foremost and significant works in the area of Arabic studies, that has dealt with statistical stylistics. In the current study, the book was analysed in terms of form and content. The focus of formal analysis revolved around cover artwork, typography, page layout, and typing errors. The content analysis, on the other hand, incorporated eloquence of expressions, order of the issues, resources, referencing, innovations and analyses and reviews of them. The results of the analyses indicated that since this work has been published almost 20 years ago, it has several deficits in terms of formal features particularly typography and referencing. It should be noted that, in terms of content, despite the novelty of the concepts in the area of Arabic studies, the underlying theoretical issues of the book are mainly adapted from western experts. Thus, it should be considered that the main innovation of the book is adapting the western concepts and implementation of the related models and patterns in Arabic texts and literature.
