“…This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach to analyze grammatical errors in translating the text of the Kitab Qasas Al-Nabiyyīn by Abu Hasan Ali Hasani Nadwi. Qualitative research methods will be used to profoundly and contextually understand the grammatical errors in this translation (Bekker & Clark, 2018;Aloudah, 2022 ). Qualitative research methods are research that studies the state of natural objects with researchers as the vital instrument (Sugiyono, 2018), where the focus of this research is to examine and analyze the results of final semester student translations of the Kitab Qasas Al-Nabiyyīn by Abu Hasan Ali Hasani Nadwi.…”

This article aims to understand the grammatical errors in the translated text of "Qasas Al-Nabiyyīn" by Abu Hasan Ali Hasani Nadwi. This research uses the descriptive qualitative method to identify morphological and syntactic errors in the translated text. Data collection was done by collecting the original text of the source language and its translation in the book "Qasas Al-Nabiyyīn." The data collection steps involved identifying pairs of both languages for grammatical analysis, followed by data analysis to identify grammatical errors. The analysis results showed 18 grammatical errors in the translation of the book, consisting of 7 morphological errors and 11 syntactic errors. These errors impact the incompatibility of the message contained in the source text. In order to correct the grammatical errors, a correction analysis was conducted on the target language, especially in Indonesian, by referring to the applicable grammatical rules. This article concludes that correcting grammatical errors can improve the accuracy and clarity of the message in the translation of "Qasas Al-Nabiyyīn" so that it can be more effectively conveyed to readers who speak the target language. This analysis contributes to a practical understanding of the importance of paying attention to grammatical aspects in translating religious texts. Recommendations for future research include developing more effective translation strategies involving source and target language experts. Research can expand the scope of analysis to explore semantic and pragmatic aspects of translated texts. In addition, further research could consider the impact of cultural context on the understanding and interpretation of religious texts in translation. The results of this study are expected to provide a foundation for developing better translation guidelines, improve the quality of translated religious texts, and facilitate a deeper understanding of essential messages in religious literature.

“…The research team consisting of a nutritionist and a university faculty member developed the 13 questions guided by the related literature [ 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 ]. Before initiating data collection, the interview guide was translated into Arabic and subjected to content validation [ 26 ]. This was subsequently pilot-tested with 6 parents of children aged 9–13 years with obesity (three females and three males).…”

Parents play a critical role in influencing the eating habits of their children. This study examined parents’ perceptions of factors that contributed to childhood obesity and sought their suggestions on various modalities for overcoming the barriers to healthy eating. Semi-structured in-depth interviews were undertaken with 26 parents of 9–13 years old school children with obesity from the United Arab Emirates. Three main topics covered in the interviews were: (1) Parents’ perceptions of their children’s weight and eating habits; (2) Attitudes towards healthy eating and weight management; and (3) Suggestions on how their children can adopt a healthy lifestyle. Interview transcripts were thematically analyzed using the NVIVO software to identify the emerging main themes and sub-themes. Parents identified individual/intrapersonal (child), interpersonal (peers, family, nannies), and institutional/school environment barriers and facilitators to a healthier lifestyle. The three major themes that emerged were: (1) Negative effects of obesity on children’s lives; (2) Barriers to weight management and healthy lifestyle; and (3) Facilitators to healthy eating. Nutritional education and a supportive home and school environment were suggested for the adoption of a healthy lifestyle by children.

“…The remainder were used in Arabic with excerpts selected and translated into English in consultation with the research team. We recognise that translation is necessarily interpretive, so it is possible that the original meaning may have changed during the translation process ( Aloudah, 2022 ; van Nes et al, 2010 ).…”

Background: Telerehabilitation is emerging in Saudi Arabia. This study investigated occupational therapy professionals’ perspectives on using telerehabilitation in their practice. Method: Data were collected through semi-structured phone interviews conducted with nine Saudi occupational therapists. A pragmatic qualitative evaluation approach was used. Findings: Experience and perceptions of participants regarding telerehabilitation were represented as follows: awareness and knowledge of telerehabilitation; how telerehabilitation increases occupational therapy availability and access in Saudi Arabia; telerehabilitation in the pandemic; telerehabilitation is preferred; suitability of telerehabilitation in Saudi Arabia; telerehabilitation care pathways; telerehabilitation readiness in Saudi Arabia; and telerehabilitation willingness by Saudi occupational therapists. Conclusion: Saudi occupational therapists have good knowledge and awareness of telerehabilitation, and some had used it during the pandemic. They showed positive attitudes and a willingness to use telerehabilitation if appropriate technology infrastructure, official policy standards and guidelines, training, data security, and financial resources could be provided to support implementation.
