Waqf campaign suspended in solidarity with victims of terror attack
The All India Muslim Personal Law Board has suspended its campaign against the Waqf (Amendment) Act for three days in solidarity with victims of the terrorist attack in Pahalgam. 'The terrorist attack is deeply tragic and strongly condemnable. The Board has decided to suspend its protest programs under the Waqf Protection Campaign for three days as an expression of sympathy for the victims' families,' the Board said in a statement. Meanwhile, leading Muslim bodies, the Jamaat-e-Islami Hind and Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind have also extended their solidarity with the victims. Calling the attack 'dastardly', the Muslim bodies reminded the attackers that terror has no place in a civil society. 'We strongly condemn the deadly terror attack that took place in Pahalgam. The loss of innocent lives, including foreign tourists, is deeply saddening. There can be no justification for such a barbaric act. It is completely inhuman and deserves absolute and unequivocal condemnation. Those responsible must be brought to justice and given the harshest punishment,' Syed Sadatullah Husaini, president of Jamaat-e-Islami said. The JIH president stressed that no cause—political, ideological, or otherwise—can ever justify such barbaric violence. 'This was an inhuman act that defies every moral and ethical code,' he said. Mr Husaini called on the government to take strong measures to bolster security and urged the civil society to refrain from narratives that may inflame tensions. The Jamiat president Arshad Madani saw a ray of hope in the condemnation of the terrorist attack from mosques. 'Many mosques in Kashmir and Delhi have condemned the attack. The condemnation of terrorist attacks from mosques means the common people want to live in peace and harmony. Such gestures will defeat the designs of terrorists,' Mr Madani said.

Research makes breakthrough in early breast cancer detection
Muscat – A recent research breakthrough could help in the early detection of breast cancer, making it easier to identify even the smallest and deepest tumours. Led by Dr Mohammed Abdullah Salim al Husaini, Assistant Professor at Arab Open University in Oman, the research used a cooling gel to improve thermal imaging techniques, offering hope for more accurate and non-invasive detection methods. The research focused on understanding how temperature variations in breast tissue, influenced by factors such as tumour size, depth and blood flow, can aid in detecting breast cancer. By developing a numerical simulation model using COMSOL software, Husaini and his team were able to explore how these factors affect heat distribution in breasts of different sizes. One of the research's key findings is that smaller or deeper tumours are often difficult to detect due to minimal temperature differences. For example, tumours located deeper within the breast tissue or smaller than 0.5cm are particularly challenging to detect with conventional thermography, with temperature variations between tumour-affected and non-affected areas ranging from only 0.27°C to 2.58°C. However, the research revealed that applying a situ-cooling gel significantly improves thermal contrast, especially for deeper tumours. In a simulation, a tumor located 10cm deep was detected with a 6°C temperature difference when the cooling gel was applied, a result that was unattainable through thermography alone. Dr Mohammed Abdullah Salim al Husaini, Assistant Professor at Arab Open University in Oman 'This breakthrough could greatly enhance the accuracy of early breast cancer detection,' said Husaini. 'By improving thermal contrast with cooling techniques, we can detect tumours that might otherwise go unnoticed, especially in patients with larger breasts or those with tumours located deep within the tissue.' Husaini added that while the results are promising, further clinical studies are required to validate the findings. He also emphasised the potential for situ-cooling to be integrated into existing thermography-based detection methods, offering a non-invasive approach to identifying cancer at its earliest stages. The research, published in Applied Sciences in 2023, involved a team of experts from King Khalid University and International Islamic University Malaysia, and was awarded in the PhD category of the 11th National Research Award organised by Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation.
