Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The words ‘housing developer’ and ‘housing development’ have been defined in section 3 of the Housing Development (Control and Licensing) Act 1966 (‘the Act’). These statutory definitions have severally been discussed and examined by the courts in several cease law and it has been contended that the meanings of the definitions are too l

A Comparative Performance Analysis of Islamic and Conventional Banking: a Case Study of Pakistan
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The objective of this research is to critically evaluate the performance indicators which are used in previous studies and propose a comprehensive indicator to check the performance of selected Islamic and Conventional banks of Pakistan over the period of 2011–2016. The comprehensive indicator of performance is comprised of indicator of profitabi

Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Extraction of Bioactive Flavonoid from Strobilanthes Crispus (Pecah Kaca)
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The bioactive flavonoid compounds of Strobilanthes crispus (Pecah Kaca) leaves obtained by using supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) extraction were investigated and the obtained crude extract yields were compared in order to select the best operation parameters. Since carbon dioxide is a non-polar solvent, ethanolwas used as co-solvent to increa

Artificial Immune Network Model Based Controller for Vibration Suppression of Flexible Structures
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper presents a model based controller with immune inspired algorithm to suppress flexible plate vibration. Artificial immune network (AiNet) algorithm with real-valued random initialisation of antibodies is considered to optimise the system model for use in active vibration controller development in a single-input and multi-output (SIMO) con

An Artificial Sperm - Next Year or Never?
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The idea that a sperm or egg might be formed outside of a gonad is perhaps as bizarre today as human assisted conception and test-tube babies were 30-40 years ago and has received a similar amount of media copy. Here, we review briefly the derivation of mammalian germ cells and sperm cells from embryonic stem cells in vitro, ask whether these metho

Antimicrobial Studies of Cosmos Caudatus Kunth. (Compositae)
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The present study aims to investigate crude n-hexane, diethyl ether (Et2O), ethanol (EtOH) and phosphate buffered saline (PBS) extracts of Cosmos caudatus Kunth leaves for their antimicrobial potential against 5 microbial strains comprising 2 Gram positive bacteria: Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, 2 Gram negative bacteria: Escherichia col

Experimental Investigations on Wall Pressure in Suddenly Enlarged Ducts at Supersonic Mach Number Regimes
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper presents the results of an experimental work carried out to find the wall pressure distribution in a suddenly enlarged duct. The enlarged duct is attached to the exit of a convergent- divergent axisymmetric nozzle. The area ratio (i.e. ratio between cross sectional arean of the sudden expansion duct and the nozzle exit area) considered i

Effect on Base Pressure in Suddenly Expanded Flows with Variable Location of Microjets
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper presents results of an experimental investigation to study the effectiveness of micro jets to control the base pressure in suddenly expanded axi-symmetric ducts when the micro jets are placed at different location (i.e. at the base, at the duct, and at base as well as at the duct). The purpose of this study is to study the individual as

Shariah and Legal Issues in the Bay' bithaman-Al-ajil (Bba): a Viewpoint
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The primary duty of Islamic banks and financial institutions in Malaysia is to carry out Islamic banking and financial activities and to offer products that are in accordance with Islamic teachings. These products are subject to the scrutiny and approval of the Bank Negara's Shariah Advisory Council ('SAC') and the internal Shariah Advi

Determinants of Economic Performance of micro-Credit Clients and Prospect of Islamic Microfinance in Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study is divided into two parts. The first part of the study utilises econometric models to assess the economic performance of clients participating in the microcredit programme of Amanah Ikhtiar Malaysia (AIM). Several proxies are used for the economic performance variable (dependent variable), including level of earnings/income, ratio of spe
