Resistance, as a successful phenomenon in Islamic thought and practical theology, is focused on monotheism, faith in God, and belief in divine victory in all social strata. The present study examines the concept of the theology of resistance with an emphasis on its Quranic themes. The theology of resistance, in addition to its cognitive, political, and social aspects, has deep religious roots in the Quran, which are manifested in concepts such as faith, patience, strong will, unity, and the continuation of the path of resistance. The current study, using a descriptive-analytical method, considers selected verses, especially those related to the Battle of Uḥud , as an example of the Quranic literature of resistance. It aims to show how these Quranic themes play a role in strengthening the social and cultural spirit of Muslim communities. The results of the research make it possible to explain the systematic theology of resistance and its practical analysis in the Battle of Uḥud as a model of resistance for believers. This research proves that conscious resistance with faith is a combination of individual and collective steadfastness that is achieved by trusting in God and believing in divine victory. It also emphasizes that promoting the discourse of the theology of resistance based on the Quran can guide the individual and collective behaviors of Muslims in confronting challenges and the domination of falsehood, and can be a factor in the honor and progress of Islamic societies. Thus, in addition to being considered a religious concept, the theology of resistance is also raised as a social and cultural need today that illuminates the path of resistance in the contemporary world

One of the most important structural studies is the examination of narrative techniques in the Quranic stories with the aim of showing the quality of the visual layers. To achieve this type of research, various models and methods are used. One of the interdisciplinary models is dramaturgy. Dramaturgy, as a theatrical function, seeks synergy within the text and displays actions to influence the audience and answer their potential questions; likewise, the audience's confrontational or interactive feelings with the work and structured analyses of the artistic work aim to determine the impact of the narrative and the longevity of the work. In this research, the story of Prophet Moses and Khiḍr (al-Kahf: 60ff) and a part of the story of Joseph have been studied using a descriptive-analytical method. The results show that the quality of using the dramaturgy of silence encompasses ten different and novel types, from authorial silence to causal silence. In these narrative techniques, the Quranic images do not, on their own, draw the narrative lines of the text, but rather are reflected in the domains of certain insights, concepts, and epistemological, cosmological, ethical, and aesthetic assumptions. These seemingly fragmented images are multi-referential and in their echo also include silence, making it a part of such frames. The narrative essence in the story of Khiḍr and Moses and Joseph is the mention of the meta-narrative in two realms: "First, the compositional actions and functions based on reality, and the second part, the descriptive and interpretive actions that recount the paratexts."

The present study aims to examine the ethical and jurisprudential aspects of animal rights in the context of war according to Islamic and Christian doctrines. This topic holds a significant ethical and legal position within traditions, reflecting different historical and cultural backgrounds as well as varied approaches to the issue. The primary research question is to analyze and critically compare Islamic and Christian perspectives on respecting animal rights during armed conflict, while also examining the related intellectual developments. The study aims to delineate the theoretical and practical frameworks of both religions in this field and to extract their points of convergence and divergence. The research methodology is based on a content analysis of sacred texts, jurisprudential and theological literature, and a descriptive-analytical review of the viewpoints of prominent thinkers from both religious schools. The findings indicate that within Islam, the killing and abuse of animals during war are strictly limited and only permitted in cases of necessity, with adherence to ethical principles. These teachings have demonstrated remarkable stability and continuity from the inception of Islam to the present. In contrast, Christian teachings have historically legitimized and, at times, mandated the killing of animals during wartime. Until the late twentieth century, the dominant Christian stance was not strongly protective of animal rights. However, contemporary philosophical and cultural transformations within Christianity have led to a fundamental reassessment and orientation towards the preservation and protection of animal rights in armed conflict. This study demonstrates that while Islam maintains a consistent theoretical and practical position, Christianity has undergone a significant historical evolution in its attitude towards animal rights during wartime.
