Syftet med den föreliggande studien är att utifrån konvertiters egna berättelser om sin väg till islam nå en ökad förståelse för vilken innebörd valet att konvertera till islam får för deras identitet och känsla av mening. Studiens frågeställningar är: Hur beskriver konveriter sin egen resa till islam, vilken betydelse har den nya religiösa identiteten för dem i deras vardag samt vilken mening finner de i sin religiösa tro idag. Studiens teoretiska utgångspunkter har varit Rambo och Farhadian's teori om konversionsstadier, Bauman, Johansson samt Berger & Luckmann's resonemang kring identitet som en process samt McGuire utifrån religion som meningssystem och konversion som omformulering av självet. Metoden som valts för att kunna uppfylla syftet och besvara frågeställningarna har varit hermeneutiken. Undersökningen har baserats på fem semistrukturerade intervjuer.

Palliative care concerns care of those who are dying and when cure is no longer an option. The nurse´s job is then to support the patient and to give care of good qualitive so that the patient will experience optimal quality of life.

Four headlines have been crystallized out of the result, a) the view of death b) the impact of the meeting c) the importance of support d) the importance of preparation and education.

English abstractTitle: Islam and the limitations of the public will of choice.The purpose of this paper have been to investigate how three modern Islamic theorists view the limitations of the public free will of choice based upon their interpretation of the Islamic theology and doctrine.The paper focuses to highlight how all three chosen Islamic theorist interpret the Islamic doctrine based upon my elected theses and more specifically pinpoint were the free will of choice ends, and Islam as a religion starts to take hegemony. The paper?s aim is to further an understanding that in the modern world and as a effect of increased literacy, Islam has been somewhat inclined to split into several Islamisms, based upon the variety of fatwa?s on the Islamic doctrine that is available online. Therefore it remains to the modern day Muslim, to individually decide whether they choose to follow the message of the Holy revelation in the Quran or trust a mufti?s fatwa in their everyday life as a Muslim.The material used and analyzed in this paper is prime source material.

Background Adolescents and adults suffering from needle phobia have an unreasonable fear of needles that leads to negative experiences if they do not get the support they need. Negative experiences lead to patients avoiding health care, or these experiences affect important aspects of life. The suffering that a patient experiences may be obvious to some, but others hide it, and then it will be more difficult to detect. The nurse's role is to recognize the suffering and its different reactions in order to alleviate and prevent unnecessary suffering of the patient. AimThe purpose of this study was to describe about young people's and adults' experiences of having needle phobias.

Studien behandlar hur Dagens Nyheter presenterade protesterna mot de karikatyrer av Profeten Muhammed som publicerades i danska Jyllands-Posten 2005. Kritisk diskursanalys har använts som övergripande teori och metod där även tidigare forskning kring orientalism och postkolonialism relaterats till det analyserade materialet. Analysen omfattar texter rörande ämnet publicerade mellan 2006-01-31 och 2006-02-07 i Dagens Nyheter. Fokuseringen har främst legat vid vilka klassificeringar som förekommer samt hur muslimer presenteras i dessa texter, men även vilka konsekvenser denna mediala praktik kan medföra. De mest framträdande diskurserna i det analyserade materialet är förståelsen av en konflikt mellan yttrandefriheten och islam.

Detta är ett arbete om hur det är att bo och leva i Sverige som muslim. De muslimer som finns i Sverige idag har till största delen flytt från sina hemländer för att undvika krig, fattigdom och förföljelser. Alltfler muslimer är nu även födda i Sverige och tillsammans med det mindre antal konvertiter som finns i Sverige skapar de nu en svensk islam. För att få insikt i hur det kan vara att leva som muslim i Sverige har jag läst litteratur som tar upp ämnet. Jag har kommit fram till att muslimer stöter på en mängd olika problem i utövandet av sin religion men att dessa problem på vissa håll kan lösas genom ömsesidig respekt och genom kompromisser.

Background: More focus has been placed towards autonomy when it comes to care and in special towards palliative care. The purpose with palliative care is to relieve and support at the end of the life. When the patient has difficulties to communicate to those around him due to his illness it is hard to preserve the patients right of self-determination. It is very important to consider the patient as autonomous during the course of the illness. Different alternatives have been developed to preserve the patient?s autonomy such as dedicate a deputy or plan the care of the patient in advance.Aim: The aim of this study was to describe, from an ethical point of view, how the patient?s autonomy could preserved at palliative care.Method: A general literature study where 11 scientific articles have been analysed from a qualitative checklist whereof the result has been discussed based on the principles of ethics.

This study is based on the discussion of the rapid development and use of the Internet and its role in transforming the religious landscape. More specifically it focuses on the Swedish Muslim cyber landscape and how this has changed over the passed twelve years. Göran Larrsons study Svenska cybermuslimska miljöer i början av det 21 århundradet (Swedish Cybermuslim Enviroments in the start of the Twentyfirst Century) from 2001, is being used as a starting and reference point. The general purpose of this essay is to study religious change online. The specific aim is to investigate if and in that case, how and why the Swedish cyber-Islamic landscape has changed and developed in the last twelve years.The questions to be answered in this study are:- What Muslim actors (groups, individuals and organizations) are represented on Swedish web pages in 2013?- Have the Swedish Muslim cyber landscape changed with respect to the number of web pages, content and actors since 2001, and can these changes be understood and analyzed with the help of existing research on religion and new media and Islam and Muslims in Sweden?The result of this essay shows that there has been a dramatic change regarding the activity in the Swedish Muslim cyber landscape.

Den kristna kyrkan i väst befinner sig i en brytningstid. Från att ha haft en självklar plats och röst i samhället förlorar man mer och mer mark i ett postmodernt samhälle. Ideologen Stuart Murray analyserar detta skifte inom den neoanabaptistiska tankeströmningen, och detta arbete syftar till att studera hans tankar i ljuset av annan forskning. Ett urval av Murrays kyrkohistoriska, ecklesiologiska och missiologiska böcker har lästs och jämförts med andra författares texter. De tematiska områden som studerats är främst begreppen kristendom, efterkristendom och den västliga kyrkans ecklesiologiska och missiologiska utmaningar.Kristendomstiden präglar Europas kristenhet på många plan.

When going through a stem cell transplantation a patient is forced to undergo protective isolation to inhibit risk of opportunistic infections related to the low leucocyte count as a result of aggressive pre-transplant chemotherapy treatment. Protective isolation has shown to have an impact on patient experiences during treatment and the aim of this study is to elucidate experiences of protective isolation of patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and to deduce patient perceptions of the role of nurses in protective isolation care. The presented study was performed as a mixed qualitative and quantitative survey at a hematopoietic ward in Sweden. Results were analyzed by Mayring (2000) and by descriptive frequency charts and show that patients in protective isolation experience alienation, necessity, safety and anxiety with regards to their protective situation. Considering the role of nurses patients perceive their role to be attendant, informant and acting as an executioner of medical implementations.
