Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Rehabilitation for disabled children requires long-term programmes which are expensive to the family. This study aimed to estimate the cost incurred by caregivers’ children with disabilities from Pahang, Terengganu and Kelantan participating in Community-Based ehabilitation (CBR) (CentreBased and Home-Based) and cost of seeking alternative rehabi

Fatty Acid Evaluation and Antimicrobial Activity of Virgin Coconut Oil and Activated Virgin Coconut Oil on Streptococcus Mutans
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

For decades, coconut oil was reported to possess a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity due to its abundant fatty acid’s contents. Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) has been strongly implicated as the main etiological factor in dental caries. Regardless of the ongoing medical advances, the therapeutic resources for dental caries remain ineffec

Wavelet Improved option-Implied Moments: an Empirical Study
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study investigates the performance of option-implied moments, realised from the model-free Bakshi-Kapadia-Madan (MFBKM) with an improvement using wavelet transform. So far, little attention has been paid in utilising continuous wavelet transform in denoising the option-implied moments, especially within the model-free hybrid framework. Thus, t

Empirical Performance of a model-Free Volatility Against the Different Option Strike Size Discreteness
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study investigates whether the dierent step size of option strike price discreteness contributes to the performance of a model-free variance in approximating the real-value volatility. The volatility is proxied by the volatility implied by the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. We concentrate on examining the respective relationship go

Upper Tract Transitional Carcinoma: an Array of Imaging Conundrum
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Case report: We report a 38-year-old gentleman who presented with painless haematuria for 6-months duration. Contrast-enhanced CT renal revealed a large, calcified intrapelvic mass with calyceal extension confined within the right kidney with moderate pelvicalyceal dilatation but no evidence of synchronous lesion elsewhere. Histopathological analys

أضرار السحر المادية والمعنوية ووسائل الحد من انتشاره: دراسة مقاصدية = Material and Spiritual Harms of Magic and Effective Ways of Limiting its Spread: a Higher Objectives’ Study
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Objectives of Shariah (maqāṣid). These aims are rarely examined in the Islamic literature on sorcery. The dissertation investigates the development and role of sorcery in ancient societies before highlighting the responsibility of sorcerers for the harm they cause in society. The Objectives of Shariah were used to underline the dangers of sorcer

Phytoremediation of Arsenic from Mine Waste by Jatropha Curcas
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The increasing activities of mining industries had led to anincreasing number of mine tailings. Mine tailings containing a high concentration of heavy metal such as arsenic generated from the refining process contributes to the pollution of the environment and brings harmful effects to human health. Phytoremediation is an emerging technology that a

Contribution of Rainwater to the Irrigation Requirement for Paddy Cultivation at Tanore Upazila in Rajshahi, Bangladesh
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Groundwater extraction for irrigation in Bangladesh has caused groundwater depletion, especially in the Northern region. As such, shifting reliance from groundwater to surface water is one of the solutions to mitigate this problem. This study aims at investigating the contribution of effective rainfall to the total consumptive use requirement of ri
