This paper is written to illustrate the experience of Dar al-Hikmah library relocating a law library to a law faculty’s resource centre. The law library in this article refers to Mohamed Ismail & Co. library, Damansara, Kuala Lumpur, while the law faculty’s resource centre in this article refers to Razali Nawawi Resource Centre (RNRC), Ahma

Tobacco use claims more than 8 million lives annually, with most tobacco-related deaths occurring in low and middle-income countries. Second-hand tobacco smoke contributes to an additional 1.2 million deaths annually due to heart disease, cancer, and other diseases. Research appears to show a lack of scientific evidence about the value of e-cigaret

Disposal of animal blood from slaughterhouses leads to high risk of water and land resources problem. Due of this concern, food scientists separated the plasma component and transformed into food additives that comprised with tremendous functional properties such as gelling agent, replacing fat and eggs function, emulsifier, binder agent and also h

Powerful buyers have become a problem stifling the market presence of micro, small and medium businesses. Their power in both upstream and downstream markets may allow them to manipulate prices or output. The authors look at whether competition law can address such problem particularly in Malaysia. They use monopsony as the theoretical framework an

Given the limited studies on Halal food management system, this study seeks to assess the relationship between the implementation of Halal food management system critical constructs, operational performance and product quality. A total of 163 samples collected from Halal certified SMEs manufacturers in Malaysia were used for data analysis. Data wer

A tunable, passively Q-switched thulium-doped fluoride fiber laser (TDFFL) using a tungsten ditelluride (WTe2) thin film based saturable absorber (SA) was proposed and its operational efficacy demonstrated. At a maximum pump power of 250 mW, a Q-switched output at 1494 nm with a 3-dB bandwidth of 3 nm was obtained. The repetition rate was measured

For the first time, a copper telluride (Cu2Te) based saturable absorber (SA) was demonstrated for mode-locking in a thulium-doped fiber laser. Layers of Cu2Te were deposited onto a side polished fiber (SPF) using the optical deposition technique, forming an all-fiber SA device. The nonlinear optical properties of the SA device were investigated bas

The Maqāṣid al-Sharī’ah is one of the disciplines that has been given a unique space in various fields of study nowadays. Though a plethora of studies touched on Maqāṣid alSharī’ah, it rarely linked to the area of STEM education. This phenomenon is crucial in ensuring that the education world is in the mould of the Maqāṣid al-Sharī�

Conventional piezoelectric materials from piezoceramic and polymer are non-renewable and could be toxic in nature, which limit its application in biomedical application. Chitosan, which is a natural polysaccharide, has the potential to be used as piezoelectric biomaterial which may provide the solution for toxicity, non-biodegradability and non-bio

A Q-switched S-band fiber laser based on a thulium-fluoride fiber gain medium and copper telluride (Cu2Te) based saturable absorber (SA) is demonstrated. The Cu2Te based SA is fabricated as a thin film and at the maximum pump power, the generated Q-switched output has a minimum pulse width of 3.2 µs and highest pulse energy of 56.7 nJ. The pulse t
