Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah and the Online Banking System: Implications for Service Delivery
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

One of the Sharīʿah’s requirements in conducting transactions is realising the Maqāṣid al-Sharīʿah. The Modern online banking system is very common to everyone, so it is considered as al-ʿUrf or al-ʿādah (common practice or custom) under the Sharīʿah. However, its practice is surrounded with security concerns, ease of use, and trust a

The Fundamental Basis Theorem of Geometry from an Algebraic Point of View
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

An algebraic analog of the Fundamental Basis Theorem of geometry is offered with a pure algebraic proof involving the famous Waring’s problem for polynomials. Unlike the geometry case the offered system of invariant differential operators is commuting, which is a new result even in the classical geometry of surfaces. Moreover the algebraic analog

On Classification of m-Dimensional Algebras
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A constructive approach to the classification and invariance problems, with respect to basis changes, of the finite dimensional algebras is offered. A construction of an invariant open, dense (in the Zariski topology) subset of the space of structure constants of algebras is given. A classification of all algebras with structure constants from this

Challenges in Textile Wastewater and Current Palliative Methods: an Overview
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Effluents from dye and textile industries are highly contaminated and toxic to the environment. High concentrations of non-biodegradable compounds contribute to increases in biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) of the wastewater bodies. Dyes found in wastewater from textile industries are carcinogenic, mutagenic, or tera

Palm Oil Mill Effluent Metagenome for cellulose-Degrading Enzymes
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Abstract: Functional metagenomic approach incorporating metagenomic DNA library construction and high-throughput screening has proven to be a powerful tool for identifying novel biocatalysts (Wouters et al. 2014). Culture enrichment strategies are additional pre-screening methods employed to provide an attractive means of enhancing the screening hi

Factors Affecting the Immobilization of Fungal Biomass on Cnt as a Biosorbent for Textile Dyes Removal
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Effluents from dye and textile industries are highly contaminated and toxic to the environment. High concentration of non-biodegradable compounds contributes to increased biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) of the wastewater bodies. Dyes found in wastewater from textile industries are carcinogenic, mutagenic or teratoge

Ergodicity of Power series-Maps on the Simplexes of Group Algebras of Finite Groups
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

For every finite group $G$ the ergodicity of any map $p: S\rightarrow S$ on $S$ is shown, where $\mathcal{R}[G]$ is the real group algebra of $G$ , $$ S= \{x=\sum_{g\in G}x_gg\in \mathcal{R}[G]: \sum_{g\in G}x_g=1, x_g\geq 0 \mbox{ for any}\quad g\in G\}-\mbox{the simplex,} $$ $p(x)= a_0+a_1x+ a_{2}x^{2}+ ...$, \ $x\in S$,\ $a_i\geq 0$ and $\sum_{i

The Influence of Blood Sugar Level on Visual Functions and Ocular Surface Changes in Young Adults with Diabetes
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The escalating prevalence of diabetics in the world and Malaysia particularly, is alarming. Among the complications of diabetes especially in the elderly patients, is retinopathy, which may derive from the affected posterior eye and influence the visual functions. However, limited studies investigated the potential visual function changes in a youn

Feeder Mode Choice Selection Behavioural Modelling: the Case of Ktm Komuter, Kuala Lumpur
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Transit oriented development propagates the use of feeder services such as buses, taxis and paratransit to support the main rail trunks (Taylor, 1982; Limtanakool et.al, 2006; Alshalalfah & Shalaby, 2007). This paper attempts at explaining the preferences of passengers of a Malaysian rail service towards feeder buses, factors influencing their

Modelling Willingness to Pay for Improved Public Transport Services: the Challenges of non-Response to Stated Preference Hypothetical Questions
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The paper focuses on the modelling attempt of willingness to pay for an improved bus service in selected cities and towns of Malaysia. Using responses from onboard intercept surveys, 1,130 samples of bus passengers have been analysed so as to arrive at a simplified model of how passengers trade off their money with possible upgrading of bus service
