In this investigation, the relationship <br>between Swahili and Arabic is first summarized. Then, this sequence ofsubject pronoun <br>affixes in Swahili verbs is outlined, along with the sequence of subject pronoun affixes<br>in Arabic verbs. Finally, a comparison is made, analyizing the similarities and <br>differences in the sequence of subject pronouns affixes in the Swahili and Arabic verbs. <br>The data analysis was guided by the principles of phrase structure grammar, <br>established by Chomsky (1957). The article’s data was obtained using the text reading <br>method. This method enabled the researcher to identify Swahili and Arabic verbs used <br>in the analysis. The research findings show that Swahili and Arabic share similarities <br>and differences in the sequence of subject pronouns affixes in verbs. Both Swahili and <br>Arabic are agglutinative languages that allow affixes to be attached to verbs. Subject <br>pronoun affixes are found in both Swahili and Arabic verbs. The placement of these <br>affixes takes into account the agent and the patient, as well as the number in both <br>Swahili and Arabic. Despite the similarities in the attachment of subject pronoun <br>affixes in Swahili and Arabic verbs. There is a significant difference in the rules <br>governing the placement of these affixes in Swahili and Arabic. The sequence of subject <br>pronoun affixes in Arabic is closely linked to gender (male and female), singular, dual <br>and plural forms, as well as the distinction between the agent and the patient. <br>Additionally, the subject pronoun affixes in Arabic take into account the tense of the <br>action; and these affixes are placed at the end of the verb. In Swahili, subject pronoun <br>affixes focus on singular and plural forms and also consider the agent or the patient. <br>Therefore, we can observe that in Arabic, there is a much more extensive seguence of <br>subject pronoun affixes attachment compared to Swahili.</p> Halima Ali Hassan Copyright (c) 2024 ABDULRAHMAN AL-SUMAIT University Journal (SUJ) https://journal.sumait.ac.tz/index.php/data/article/view/109 Tue, 17 Dec 2024 00:00:00 +0000 القواعد الفقهية وآدابها القضائية https://journal.sumait.ac.tz/index.php/data/article/view/107 <p><em>&nbsp;<strong>T</strong>his research is under the title: “<strong>Jurisprudential Rules</strong>”In it, the researcher collected the most important rules that the judge cannot perform the judicial procedures without in them, especially the cases relate with the personal status, starting from the time appointment of the Kadhi, until the judge issues the judicial ruling.

This study examined the O. cyanea growth, mortality rates, and recruitment patterns in Matemwe <br>and Michamvi, Zanzibar, using Dorsal Mantle Length (DML) frequency data from catch landings between <br>October 2020 and September 2021. Octopus sizes ranged from 2 to 10.5 cm DML with an average body weight <br>of 2.2 kg ± 0.02 kg in Matemwe and 2.1 kg ± 0.01 kg in Michamvi. The Growth Coefficients (K) were 1.8 year⁻¹<br>and 2.3 year⁻¹, with Asymptotic Lengths (L∞) of 10.5 cm and 9.5 cm, and Growth Performance Indices (Φ') of <br>2.33 and 2.4 for Matemwe and Michamvi, respectively, typically reflecting fast growth rates. In Matemwe, <br>total mortality (Z) was 6.96 year~1, with natural mortality (M) of 4.20 year~1, fishing mortality (F) of 2.76 <br>year<br>~1, and exploitation rate (E) of 0.40 year~1. In contrast, at Michamvi, Z was 5.75 year~1, M was 3.48 year~1<br>, <br>and F was 2.27 year~1, E was 0.39 year~1 all of which suggest a sustainable harvesting rate in line with current <br>management practices. Recruitment occurred year-round, with notable peaks in April at Matemwe and <br>February at Michamvi, reflecting the influence of geographical and human-related factors on recruitment. <br>This study emphasizes the need for improved management policies to mitigate the effects of intense fishing <br>pressure on O. cyanea in Zanzibar. Management options such as size restrictions, and fishery closures should <br>be enhanced to balance exploitation with regenerating capacity, ensuring the sustainability of the fishery</p> Abdalla Y Kombo, 1Ali M.
