The journal maintains that academic research is not merely an accumulation of knowledge, but a responsible intellectual practice that critically engages with reality, opens new horizons for analysis and interpretation, and contributes to building scholarly awareness capable of addressing social, cultural, and legal transformations at the local, regional, and international levels.</p> <p style="direction: ltr;" data-start="1143" data-end="2275">Accordingly, <em data-start="1156" data-end="1172">Debono Journal</em> is committed to publishing original research characterized by methodological rigor, analytical depth, and strict adherence to research ethics. It seeks to serve as a bridge for scholarly dialogue among researchers from diverse disciplinary backgrounds in the fields of humanities, social sciences, and legal studies, by encouraging interdisciplinary approaches, engaging with diverse intellectual traditions, and embracing the dynamic interaction between theoretical and applied knowledge. The journal also adopts an open-access policy, grounded in its belief in the right of knowledge to circulate freely and in its role in serving the academic and research community without restriction. Published by Al-Thakwāt Foundation for Culture, Thought, and Arts in the city of Najaf, the journal draws inspiration from this rich scientific and cultural environment, and aspires to maintain an active presence in the Arab and international academic landscape in line with global standards of scholarly publishing, thereby reinforcing its credibility as a responsible and effective academic platform.</p>https://debono-iq.org/index.php/ijhs/article/view/262Yassin Al-Nassir’s Critical Views in His Book “The Short Story Writer and Reality”: A Study and Analysis2026-02-21T11:54:00+00:00سندس حامد عمران12r33336oppv@gmail.com<p>In this study, we discuss a literary topic, mainly related to a critic who enjoys critical and aesthetic experience and artistic and linguistic aspects, which placed him in a distinguished position in his generation.

Success in this field requires effective teaching strategies such as scaffolded content, comprehensive teacher training, the use of modern technology, and an emphasis on practical skills and meaningful communication within a supportive learning environment.</p> <p>The importance of this topic stems from the increasing global relevance of teaching Arabic to non-native speakers.</p> <p>The significance of this study lies in its focus on a critical aspect of Arabic-language education for non-native speakers at Adam Barka University in Abéché, Chad—most of whom are French-speaking Christians. Their learning programs, supported by artificial intelligence, differ significantly from many other programs that tie Arabic language instruction to Islamic education. Accordingly, the researchers sought to answer the central questions that naturally emerged from the study’s theme:</p> <p>What linguistic skills enable learners to achieve efficient and rapid learning?</p> <p>How can the Arabic language serve as a bridge for communication with others?</p> <p>What tools and methods are required to achieve this?</p> <p>The researchers addressed these questions by integrating artificial intelligence to facilitate the educational process and to build safe, sustainable, high-quality learning environments. The study consisted of three main sections:</p> <p>1.The first section:The importance and impact of learning Arabic for non-native speakers.</p> <p>2.The second section: A presentation and discussion of linguistic skills.</p> <p>3.The third section: Examples of model lessons that were implemented in the program.</p> <p>The findings provided clear answers to the study’s questions, concluding that:</p> <p>Prioritizing the development of the four core skills—listening, reading, writing, and speaking—and empowering learners through scientific methods and appropriate pedagogical tools constitutes one of the most effective approaches for high-quality and accelerated learning.Learning Arabic enables communication with a vast global community, as it is the official language of more than 25 countries and one of the six official languages of the United Nations.</p> <p>Artificial intelligence saves considerable time and effort for both learners and teachers by providing realistic and accessible educational models, thereby ensuring safe, sustainable, and high-quality education.</p> <p>The researchers employed the descriptive-analytical method, which relies on inference as one of its primary tools.</p>2026-01-25T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2026 Debono Journal for Humanities, Social Sciences and Legal Studieshttps://debono-iq.org/index.php/ijhs/article/view/266Features of the Historical Method in the Arabic Linguistic Heritage2026-02-21T12:21:21+00:00وفاء مسعود عزيزwfaalrbyy071@gmail.com<p> The historical method in the Arabic language is an approach that is concerned with tracing the linguistic phenomenon and studying it through time; the study of language under this method is characterized by tracing the linguistic phenomenon through different eras and multiple places to stand on what has happened to its development , and to know the secrets of this development and its various laws , and this method is characterized by the relationship of the latter with the normative approach shows that Arabic is capable of development and transforms the standards of any time period of its life into new standards. </p> <p> There were no significant historical studies , but there were some features of those studies , including what was mentioned in the book (decorations in Islamic words) by Al-Razi (d.322 ah), which was about tracing the new words that appeared in Arabic after Islam , with mention of the meanings of those words in ignorance , and(dictionary of the basis of rhetoric) by zamakhshari (d. 322 ah), which 538 ah), which he did not classify with the intention of being a historical lexicon, but when we look at it today we find examples of verbal metaphor when it turns into reality, with repeated use, after the covenant in the original true sense, and other features that mean to us when we dig into the texts and books of the ancients.</p>2026-01-25T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2026 Debono Journal for Humanities, Social Sciences and Legal Studieshttps://debono-iq.org/index.php/ijhs/article/view/267Allocation of Electric Vehicle Charging in Iraq: Implications for Public Health and Sustainable Energy Systems2026-02-21T12:36:16+00:00Nadia Mahmoud Tawfiq Jebrilnadia.tawfiq@uobabylon.edu.iqBuraq Kareem Kadhimnadia.tawfiq@uobabylon.edu.iqLilyan Q.

Methods: I created a scenario-based allocation model, borrowing ideas from global EV charging systems but tweaking them to fit Iraq’s own reality: daily routines, commuting habits, and how people get their electricity. Results: The numbers are clear. Around 85% to 90% of EV charging happens at home, straight from the grid. Charging at work, in public, or even at fast stations barely makes a dent by comparison. Conclusions: Policy should start where people actually charge—at home. Making home electricity more reliable and ensuring new homes are ready for EVs will do a lot more than just spending big on public charging spots.</p>2026-01-25T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2026 Debono Journal for Humanities, Social Sciences and Legal Studies
