Minority at Home and Abroad: the Islamic Theory and its Challenge
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The Islamic minority laws were developed more than a millennium ago. Since then social, political and legal composition and structure of the society have drastically changed. The modern state-system is based on the ideas of universal citizenship with equal socio-political, economic and legal rights. The modern nation-states are multiethnic, multicu

Subchondral Bone Plate Thickening Precedes Chondrocyte Apoptosis and Cartilage Degradation in Spontaneous Animal Models of Osteoarthritis
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disorder characterised by bone remodelling and cartilage degradation and associated with chondrocyte apoptosis. These processes were investigated at 10, 16, 24, and 30 weeks in Dunkin Hartley (DH) and Bristol Strain 2 (BS2) guinea pigs that develop OA spontaneously. Both strains had a more pronounced cho

User Satisfaction with m-Government Sites: an Empirical Investigation
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The rapid development of mobile sites and their continued use by users, as well as government organizations delivering their services to citizens has witnessed considerable high growth over the years. However, it appears that mobile services may lack quality and user satisfaction, since the sites are mostly developed and design without user involve

Variability and Repeatability of Quantitative, fourier-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography Doppler Blood Flow in Young and Elderly Healthy Subjects
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Purpose. The purpose of this study was to determine the within-session variability and between-session repeatability of spectral Fourier-domain optical coherence tomography (Doppler FD-OCT) Doppler retinal blood flow measurements in young and elderly subjects. Methods. Doppler FD-OCT blood flow was measured using the RTVue system. One eye of each o

Reduction of Low Grade Iron Ore Pellet Using Palm Kernel Shell
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Effective use of local iron ore and biomass waste as energy and material resources in iron making is an interesting economic prospect since Malaysia imports iron ore to supply its domestic steel consumption while there is an abundance of biomass waste from the palm oil industry. In this work, a composite pellet made of Malaysian iron ore with palm

hot-Spot Traffic Pattern on Hierarchical 3d Mesh Network
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A Hierarchical 3D-Mesh (H3DM) Network s a 2D-mesh network of multiple basic modules (BMs), in which the basic modules are 3D-torus networks that are hierarchically interconnected for higher-level networks. In this paper, we evaluate the dynamic communication performance of a H3DM network under hot-spot traffic pattern using a deadlock-free dimensio

socio-Economic Condition and Occupation Migration of Fisherman of the Jamuna River Under Shirajgonj District in Bangladesh
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A field study was conducted on the socio-economic condition of the fishermen community, occupation migration and fish biodiversity in the Jamuna River at Belkuchi char areas under Shirajgonj district, Bangladesh. The study was conducted from November 2012 to August 2013. Data were collected from randomly selected 100 respondents of fishermen commun

Comparison of Digital Datcom and Wind Tunnel Data of a Winged Hybrid Airship’s Generic Model
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Use of low fidelity tools in designing subscale generic wind tunnel models is usually required to get first-hand knowledge about general trends of aerodynamic and stability parameters. Most of such tools are limited to well-defined conventional aircraft configurations. In the present work, aerodynamic and stability characteristics of a winged hybri

Crosstalk Freeness of Concatenated Modified plus-Minus 2i Photonic Switching Network
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this paper, we analyze the crosstalk freeness Concatenated Modified Plus-Minus 2i (CMPM2I) photonic switching network. A new routing algorithm is proposed for this network, which decomposes a permutation into two semi-permutations. It is shown that using the proposed routing algorithm the CMPM2I network is capable of realizing semi-permutation i

Managing Post Stroke Hyperglycaemia: Moderate Glycaemic Control is Better? an Update
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Post stroke hyperglycaemia (PSH) is prevalent in (AIS) acute ischaemic stroke patients and it has been associated with a dismal outcome of death and disability. Insulin has been proven to attenuate glucose effectively in stroke patients, thus many trials over the years had studied the efficacy of intensive treatment aiming at normalization of blood
