anti-Cancer Activities of Thymoquinone, Constituents of Nigella Sativa Against Oral Cancer Cell Lines
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Objectives: The aims of this study were to investigate and determine anti-cancer potential of Thymoquinone (TQ), a major component of Nigella Sativa seeds against cell lines derived from oral cavity carcinoma. Methods: Three human cancer cell lines derived from oral cavity, Ca922, HSC-2 and HSC-3 were used. HCT116 (human colorectal carcinoma) cells

'interfaith Dialogue' dan Hubungan Antaragama Dalam Perspektif Islam
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This article addresses issues related to the interfaith dialogue, focusing on the historical context from which it emerged and uncovering the tacit assumptions underlying the idea. It is argued that interfaith dialogue is part and parcel of the Christian mission which seeks to promote inclusivism but also eventually leads to pluralism and relativis

Feminist Jurisprudence in Islam: an Overview
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Feminism is not new to Islam. It gave due respect to women in their houses and in the society. It granted them rights which were those days strange in the West. Many rights that Islam granted to women in different capacities were achieved by women after several decades-long feminist movements in different parts of the world. Women there are still s

Optimization of Low Normal Force Contact Spring
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Enable the design of a small contact spring for applications requiring high density, high speed and high durability. A low normal force contact spring with high performance is fabricated using a unique combined technology (photo resist lithography and electro fine forming technology). To determine an appropriate hertz stress by several radius conta

Issues on Takaful Affecting the Choice of Accounting Policies: a Case Study of Two Takaful Companies in Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The paper adopts a descriptive case study method to examine the impact of juristic views on the operations of two Malaysian takaful companies. In order to achieve this objective, the annual financial reports of both companies were analysed. Interviews with each company’s finance managers and with a member of the Malaysian Shariah Advisory Council

Biodegradable pla-Kenaf Fibre Biocomposite for Cleaner Environment
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This project was undertaken to study the biodegradability of PLA-KF biocomposite in different conditions; soil burial and immersion in water. The samples were buried in soil for 40 days to investigate the degradability of biocomposites. As for water absorption tests, the samples were immersed in three different types of water which were river water

Development of Reinforced Thermoplastic Elastomer with Kenaf Bast Fibre for Automotive Component
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper compared mechanical properties of kenaf fibre (KF) composites in different matrix systems namely; thermoplastic natural rubber (TPNR) and polypropylene/ethylene-propylene-diene-monomer (PP/EPDM). Both composites were produced via melt blending method using Haake internal mixer, and then compression moulded. The ratio of thermoplastic:ela

Single Kenaf Fibre Properties via in Situ Monitoring Using Acoustic Emission
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Kenaf fibre reinforced polylactic acid biocomposites is a new material developed mainly due to the fact that it is environmentally friendly and alternative to the petroleum-based food packaging. Hence, it is important to determine mechanical properties of kenaf fibre for structural and physical applications. In this study, tensile properties and fr

An eco-Plastic Made of pla-Kenaf Fibre Biocomposite for Cleaner Environment
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Every year more than 100,000,000 polyethylene terephtalate (PET) bottles are used in Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei. Out of this gigantic figure, 85,000,000 PET bottles end up as garbage and caused the landfills to be filled by the PET bottle toxic wastes that leach into the soil. This may pollute and endangers our environment specifically our drin

Assessment of Benthic and Coral Community Structure in an Inshore Reef in Balok, Pahang, Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Assessment of benthic and coral community structure in an inshore reef in Balok, Pahang, Malaysia. Biodiversitas 20: 872-877. Inshore water reef closer to human activities are often neglected since they are not protected by marine park management. Little is known on how this reef responses to challenging environment in terms of abundance, diversity
