Abstract: Every science has the concept to define its terms, similarly concepts is essential to the enterprise of political science. If It fail to develop clear and precise concepts, our theoretical insights and empirical discoveries will fail to be clear and precise, too. This paper deals major pitfalls for conceptual analysis as well as the fundamental challenges to concept and conceptual innovation in the study of politics.

Abstract: The role played by techniques of recitation of the Glorious Qur‟an remains significant in sharpening appreciation capacity and level of compliance with the rules which ultimately enhances the competitors‟ chances of emerging as the best. In spite of the role played by various schools and non-school-based capacity building practices, performance of most participants at recitation competitions remained not as impressive as anticipated in a bid to maintain an unchanged position in the international competition. This research intends to arrive at an empirical conclusion on the relationship between both direct and indirect factors and competitors‟ performance.........

Abstract: The foreign fighters phenomena is nothing new. Throughout history, many foreign fighters have travelled to foreign countries to join the fight with whom they have sympathetic attachment or ideological attachment. Among those foreign fighters many return to their home countries, many get killed during the fight, and some may travel elsewhere. The returning foreign fighters represent a significant danger and security threat to their home/returning countries. Studies show that there are reasons to assume the returnees as potential threats and one of the important reasons is they are radicalized with extreme world views.. This research essay aims to offer an understanding on how they can pose potential threats for their home countries. This essay comprises of three parts. Firstly, it presents the concept of foreign fighters. Then, the essay offers discussion on and the trends of foreign fighters. Finally, it portrays the threat perception of returnee foreign fighters with relevant examples. The essay concludes with providing insights on possible future trends of foreign fighters as well as future research indication
