Therefore, the aim of the present study was to extract the components of “Sharh-e-Sadr” and explain the psychology of those components. Methods: To do so, dictionaries, idioms, and Islamic texts including the Qur'an and books of Hadiths were examined through the qualitative content analysis. Findings: The findings have shown that the components of “Sharh-e-Sadr” are divided into two categories of cause ("divine knowledge", "remembrance of God" and "certainty") and effect ("patience", "surrender", "peace", "trust in God" and "full attention to the Hereafter") components. Moreover, the mentioned components were presented to eight theological psychologists in order to examine the content validity index (CVI), and finally, the validity of all components was approved. Conclusion: “Sharh-e-Sadr” is a meta-attribute that contains several psychological traits including patience, calmness, acceptance, and trust so that the existence of all these traits can indicate “Sharh-e-Sadr” in a human being. These traits have been found from a comprehensive study of Islamic and lexical texts.

The aim of this study was to determine the evaluation and ranking pattern of the palm grove and date fruit by deleaniatining the Tayyib indicators and preparing the checklist of date production from the construction stage of the grove to harvest. Methods: For this purpose, first, all necessary steps, rules, and standards for the construction of groves, planting palm, harvesting the date fruit as well as individual and working conditions of human resources were reviewed, a checklist of these steps was prepared, and the necessary requirements were defined. Findings: Components were also defined and weighed for the characteristics of Tayyib including being halal, attractiveness, health, originality and blessing. Using the obtained information, the patterns of evaluating the quality and ranking were designed based on specific criteria. The criteria were coded based on the components of Tayyib principles and most optimally scored according to the necessity. Then, in order to rank the grove, the score obtained for each criterion was multiplied by the component coefficient related to that criterion, and the total score of the criteria in each grove was calculated. Conclusion: Thus, based on the obtained scores, the rank of the evaluated groves was determined in three levels: moderate (third degree), good (second degree), high (first degree) or none.

Findings: The healthy diet pattern in the narrations within the framework of Shari'a laws, especially religiously unlawful (Haram), virtuous (Mustahab) and abominable (Makruh) actions, is a suitable and accurate pattern for improving nutrition since the Islamic laws are based on the interests and corruptions so that it seems that in these laws, nutrition is the most important interest in maintaining the health of the body and avoiding endangering its health. Conclusion: According to the findings, the obligation to observe the Shari'a laws in the form of religiously unlawful, virtuous and abominable actions regarding nutrition will lead to forming and arranging the correct pattern of a healthy diet. The use of foods that are lawful (Halal) or virtuous and the avoidance of foods that are abominable or religiously unlawful will have a great influence on the health of the body.

Then, they were randomly divided into two groups (experimental and control groups) of 15 persons. The experimental group received 10 60-minute sessions of RCBT, but the control group only received normal care. Data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) observing the assumptions. Findings: There was a difference between the experimental and control groups after the emotion expression test with pre-test control (P=0.03, F=3.95) at 95% confidence level (P<0.05) in emotion expression and in fasting-blood-sugar (P=0.02, F=5/93) There is a difference. But at 2-hour post-prandial blood sugar (P=0.2, F=1.71) and glycosylated hemoglobin (P=0.65, F=2.68), despite the difference in the mean, the difference is not statistically significant. Conclusion: The results have indicated that RCBT is effective in increasing the emotional expression of diabetic patients and can be useful in reducing fasting blood sugar as an adjunct therapy for diabetic patients.
