The amygdala and the prefrontal cortex work together to help us react to the world and control our behavior. The amygdala acts like an alarm system in the brain, quickly reacting to danger, stress, or strong emotions. The prefrontal cortex, on the other hand, helps us think, plan, and make careful decisions. When these two parts communicate well, the prefrontal cortex can calm the amygdala and help us respond wisely instead of reacting with fear or panic. This ability to regulate emotions shows that our brain can retrain and reorganize itself, a process called neuroplasticity. By practicing calming strategies, positive thinking, and problem-solving, we can strengthen this control and improve how our brain handles stress and emotions over time.

Kur'an'da Nifak ve Münafık Kavramının Anatomisi
Kur'an'da Nifak ve Münafık Kavramının Anatomisi: Teolojik, Psikolojik ve Evrensel Bir İnceleme
Cevat ORHAN
1. Giriş: Kur'an'da Nifak Kavramının Konumu ve Önemi
Kur'an-ı Kerim, insanları inanç sistemlerine göre temelde üç ana kategoriye ayırır: kalben ve dille iman eden müminler, kalben ve dille inkâr eden kâfirler ve kalben inkâr ettiği halde dille inandığını söyleyen münafıklar. Bu üçlü ayrım, özellikle Medine döneminde gelişen Müslüman toplumun iç dinamiklerini şekillendiren en önemli unsurlardan biri haline gelmiştir. Müminler ve kâfirler arasındaki ayrım net ve açıktır; bu, dışsal bir mücadeleyi tanımlar. Ancak münafıklar, bu netliğin dışındadır. Onlar, İslam toplumunun içinde, Müslüman gibi görünen ancak aslında gizli bir düşmanlık besleyen bir gruptur. Bu durum, nifak olgusunu açık bir düşmanlıktan çok daha tehlikeli ve sinsi bir iç tehdit haline getirmektedir.
Nifakın teolojik ve tarihsel arka planı, Medine döneminin sosyo-politik yapısıyla yakından ilişkilidir. Hz. Peygamber'in hicretinden sonra Medine'de güçlenen İslam toplumu, dış düşmanlarla (Mekke müşrikleri ve çevredeki kâfir kabileler) mücadele ederken, içerde de münafıkların varlığıyla yüzleşmek zorunda kalmıştır. Dış düşmana karşı mücadele, safları sıkılaştırıp motivasyonu artırırken, içteki gizli düşmanla mücadele, toplumun güvenini sarsan, fitne ve fesat çıkaran, en beklenmedik anda ihanet eden bir yapıya karşı uyanık olmayı gerektirmiştir. Kur'an-ı Kerim'in pek çok ayetinde münafıkların özelliklerine, davranışlarına ve akıbetlerine özel bir vurgu yapılması, bu iç tehdidin İslam toplumunun bekası için ne kadar kritik olduğunu göstermektedir.
Bu makale, nifak kavramını yüzeysel tanımların ötesinde, çok boyutlu bir şekilde ele almayı amaçlamaktadır. Konu, sadece ahlaki bir ikiyüzlülük olarak değil, aynı
No not the Princess
“What happened?” she asked.
The king couldn’t answer her. It filled him with shame. Hira, pitying him,
addressed Almira.
“Justan Seaver took the baby,” Hira said quickly.
Almira stared at her, her black eyes penetrating as she went eerily still.
Her lips slacked, she grasped her belly.
“What baby?”
“Almira,” the king whispered. “We’ll find her. He couldn’t have gotten
far. We have ships out on the coast, men combing the city—”
“WHAT BABY?” She stumbled back.
He reached to her, but she moaned and pulled away from all who came
near her.
“Cuzo, I’m sorry—” Sanaa tried, her voice unrecognizable.
But the Queen turned and shot down the hall towards her quarters. They
all rushed behind her.
The Mesedi and Black Knights overwhelmed the hallways as they
searched the castle, but Hira knew, deep in her gut, that it was too late.
Justan was smart. He would’ve planned, he would be where they least
expected. He’d out-thought them.
Hira didn’t know how Almira ran up the stairs, but her determination was
incomparable. When they reached the landing at the high quarters, all the
soldiers and guards were still posted before the chamber, their weapons
clean and their bodies relaxed.
“He couldn’t have. She’s safe!” Almira pushed the soldiers out as they
made way for her, as she shoved open the doors to the chambers.
Inside the chambers was a silent, macabre display of bodies. Two young
Red Guards were dead, one with a blade protruding from her back and
another with a split throat. None of them with weapons at hand. Someone
had calmly ambushed them. A maid laid out next to the antechamber door,
killed in a swift, gory manner.
