The graph of development of Islamic Banking system is increasing day by day. It deals only those transaction which are not conflict with Shari'ah. Therefor the procedure of transaction of Islamic Banking is completely different from the conventional Banking system. Murābaha (Cost plus sale) or Murābaha li al-Āamir be al-Shēraá. (Cost plus sale for the purchase orderer) is a well-known financing mood. In this mood of financing, the Islamic bank bound to buy the required goods to the orderer and to sells him at higher price than the purchase price. Islamic Banks occasionally appoints an agent to buy the goods. Sometime the Islamic Banks appoints the purchase ordere himself as an agent. In this case, the contract of Murabaha and the contract of agency should not be related to each other. When the purchase orderer buys the goods as an agent, he will inform the Bank of his purchase, and the possession of the agent will be considered as the possession of the Bank. In this way, both contracts Murābaha and Wakālah are not related to each other. After this, the Bank will offer to sell him (purchase orderer) the goods and then he will accept the offer.
This study aimed to explore the relationship between lucid dreaming, psychosis proneness, nightmare and suppression. It was hypothesized that attitude towards dream and dream recall would have a relationship with lucid dream and psychosis proneness, dream lucidity as a predictor of psychosis proneness, suppression and nightmare as mediator and moderator in between the prediction respectively, and the difference by gender and institute among variables. The survey method was used for data collection, where the total sample was (N=220) with Men (n=96) and Women (n=124) of the age range of 18-26. The Inventory of Personality Organization (Lenzenweger, Clarkin, Kernberg&Foelsch, 2001), The Lucid and Consciousness Scale (Voss et al., 2013), The Mannheim Dream Questionnaire (Schredl, Berres, Klingauf, Schellhaas&Göritz, 2014) and Self-Regulation Withholding Negative Emotion (Kim, Deci& Zuckerman, 2002) were used to access psychosis proneness, lucid dream, nightmare and suppression respectively. The result of the Pearson Correlation revealed that attitude towards dream and dream recall is associated with dream lucidity and psychosis proneness. Linear regression revealed that lucid dreaming is a positive and significant predictor of psychosis proneness. Nightmare distress as a moderator negatively and significantly influences psychosis, while suppression does not influence psychosis proneness.
Similarly, the t-test result significantly reported that men were higher on dream lucidity and psychosis proneness than women. Present study proves relevant to our culture that obsession for control of dreams can lead to unhealthy psychological health. Yet lucid dreams can be used to treat nightmare distress, and our cultural, men dominant nature makes them high among lucid dreaming and psychosis proneness. Further, it is guided to explore more causal factors of lucidity predicting psychosis.
