Al- Mas'udi's Methodology in His Study of Religions Other Than Islam
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The study looks into two aspects of al-Mas'udi’s methodology in dealing with religions other than Islam; first, al-Mas'udi’s method of verifying the “reliability” or otherwise of information he gained on the religions he studied, and second, al-Mas'udi’s method of presenting the teachings of these religions. The study focuses

Automatic Retinal Vessel Profiling Using multi-Step Regression Method
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Caliber of the retinal blood vessel is widely used for risk assessment of cardiovascular diseases. Accurate and automatic caliber measurement requires a precise model to be made for the vessel profile. In this paper, we present a new approach for retinal vessel profiling in which the background noise, uneven illuminations and specular reflections h

Extraction of Glucose from Kenaf Core Using Mild Acid Treatment
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Recently, many industries are aims to reduce the usage of petroleum based product or synthetic fibre due to the increment of the environmental consciousness. This has lead to the extensive research on the natural fibre in order to produce eco–friendly product that will replace the existing petroleum based products. Natural fibre can be derived fr

The world is changing by the unbeatable pace, technology progresses, globalization is taking place and a man is stuck in that vicious cycle. In order to cope up with change man needs to learn constantly, othenvise he is doomed. The environment has changed drastically from the time of Revelation and Prophethood. As the consequence of the drastic cha

The Structural Integrity Assessment of a Liquid Filled Tank and the Carrier Vehicle During Transportation, Accident Fall, and Upon Sudden Brake Application
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Liquid cargo contained in a partially filled tank is known to experience sloshing movement when subjected to maneuvering disturbances. Large amplitude of liquid slosh can be induced within a partially filled road tank vehicle under mild to severe maneuvers, within may severely affect the structural integrity of the tank. A comprehensive experimenta

Effect of Steel, Cooper, and Lead Projectile Impact on the Damage Process of Brittle Materials
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this research, Barre granites are subjected to localized impacts of spherical projectiles with density variation. Three kinds of projectiles have been used, namely chrome steel, copper 102 and pure lead. The amount of damage is studied on both brittle target as well as ductile projectile. The result shows significance of intact time for free edg

System and Method for Quantum Key Distribution
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A system and method of quantum key distribution between a transmitter (100) and a receiver (200), wherein the system comprises at least one transmitter (100), at least one receiver (200, and a transmission means (26) for sharing a secret key securely through the means of generating quantum signals in random phase modulation and random frequency mod

Optimised Reduction of Surgical Gloves Pinholes Using Forward Search Method
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This research investigates the factors that affect the existence of pinholes in surgical gloves during the manufacturing process. Since eight factors affect the existence of pinholes in surgical gloves, a two-level fractional factorial design 28-4 was used to study the main effects and the first-order interactions of the multiple variables. Multipl

Bioengineering of virus-Like Particles as Dynamic Nanocarriers for in Vivo Delivery and Targeting to Solid Tumours
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Virus-like particles (VLPs) are known as self-assembled, non-replicative and non-infectious protein particles, which imitate the formation and structure of original wild type viruses, however, lack the viral genome and/or their fragments. The capacity of VLPs to encompass small molecules like nucleic acids and others has made them as novel vessels

Lexical and Morphological Development: a Case Study of Malay English Bilingual First Language Acquisition
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Many first language acquisition (FLA) studies have found a strong correlation between lexical and grammatical development in early language acquisition. For bilingual first language acquisition (BFLA), the development of grammar is also found to be correlated with the size of the lexicon in each language. This case study investigates how a Malay-En
