Famous for his declaration on the end of history after free-market liberal economy triumphed over communism at the end of the Cold War, Francis Fukuyama is back to elucidate on the recent rise of identity politics in the second decade of the twenty-first century. Starting with the vote by the British electorate to leave the European Union, we have

Digital Documentation in Reinstating Heritage Significance of Melanau Tall Longhouse at Kampung Sok Sarawak
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The Melanau tall longhouse in Kampung Sok Sarawak represents one of Malaysia’s unique vernacular architecture. Built in the late 19th century, the structures of this house are made using natural materials which are readily available from the jungle and all of these materials are known to be hardy and water resistant. Belian tree trunks are used a

Legal Implication of Necrophilia in Malaysia: a Comparative Legal Analysis
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This article on the law of necrophilia argues that human corpses and the laws which govern the use of dead bodies are uniquely positioned to cause precisely these legal discrepancies since the dead body is a quasi-subject before the law. This paper also presents an argument about one of the fundamental reasons that this gap in law exists. Specifica

Virgin Coconut Oil and its Antimicrobial Properties Against Pathogenic Microorganisms: a Review
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Virgin coconut oil (VCO) is the purest form of coconut oil, essentially water-clear or colourless that consists mainly of medium chain saturated fatty acids. For over many decades, the biological properties of VCO have been widely explored and investigated due to their antimicrobial potentials. The large concentration of medium chain fatty acids (M

Islamic Moral Judgement on Resuscitation Issue: Nursing Perspective
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The primary goals of resuscitation are to preserve life, restore health, relieve suffering and limit disability. As nurses, executing the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to a patient experiencing cardio-pulmonary arrest is essential in preserving life. However nurses face a dilemma in the decision making to either preserve the patient’s life

Rotational Piezoelectric Energy Harvester for Wearable Devices
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Electronic devices are mostly powered externally via batteries. The dependency on the recharging process limits the usage of these devices to work in a specified period of time. This research work highlights the capability of a piezoelectric energy harvester to generate sufficient electricity to power up electronic devices by using low frequency vi

Power Estimation for Wearable Piezoelectric Energy Harvester
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The aim of this research work is to estimate the amount of electricity produced to power up wearable devices using a piezoelectric actuator, as an alternative to external power supply. A prototype of the device has been designed to continuously rotate a piezoelectric actuator mounted on a cantilever beam. A MATLAB® simulation was done to predict t

Closure Properties of watson-Crick Petri Net
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A Watson-Crick Petri net is a model that enhances a Petri net with the Watson-Crick complementarity feature adapted from DNA molecules. The transitions of a Watson-Crick Petri net are labelled with pairs of symbols, and a firing sequence of transitions of the Watson-Crick Petri net is considered as successful if and only if it produces complete dou
