Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper discusses several social and religious aspects of the housing planning and development in Madinah during the Prophet Muhammad’s era. The paper focuses on the housing area that surrounded the Prophet’s mosque which, in turn, functioned as a community development center. The paper concludes that housing played a significant role in dev

Using Essence of Islamic Architecture as a Reference for Shapping Today’s Contemporary Islamic Architecture
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This paper presents Islamic architecture through its essence, by grasping its characteristics and the depth of its philosophy for shaping Contemporary Islamic Composition. It focuses on two issues: The unchangeable combination of the essence of Islamic Architecture. Secondly, the issue of addressing the question of how to shape a contemporary desig

Insights Into the Stereospecificity of the d-Specific Dehalogenase from Rhizobium SP. RC1 Toward d-And L-2-chloropropionate
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Halogenated compounds are recalcitrant environmental pollutants prevalent in agricultural fields, waste waters and industrial by-products, but they can be degraded by dehalogenase-containing microbes. Notably, 2-haloalkanoic acid dehalogenases are employed to resolve optically active chloropropionates, as exemplified by the D-specific dehalogenase

Demonising Demonstration: (De) Legitimization Strategies Through Emotions in the Speeches of Hosni Mubarak and BEN Ali
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

From an interdisciplinary framework anchored theoretically in Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) and using Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), this article proposes to explain the (de) legitimization strategies employed by Arab leaders and to study the linguistic choices associated with those schemes. The strategy of legitimization through emotio

A Systematic Review of the Effects of Team Climate on Software Team Productivity
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The term team-work has been a significant topic in software engineering over the past 50 years. The team climate is the exchange of ideas and perceptions among team members in favor to promote the innovation in work processes. In this paper, we presented our work on a systematic review on the effect of team climate on the software productivity or p

Building a Virtual Union Catalogue for Arabic Journal Articles in Malaysian Libraries Using Open Source Solutions
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

A considerable number of Malaysian libraries are housing Arabic collections to support the needs of their users. Currently, there is no bibliographical database of scholarly articles published in Arabic periodicals available in Malaysian libraries. To know what is published in Arabic periodicals a researcher has to check these voluminous journals m

Approximate Function for Unsteady Aerodynamic Kernel Function of Aeroelastic Lifting Surfaces
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Prediction of unsteady aerodynamic loads is still the most challenging tasks in flutter aeroelastic analysis. Generally, the numerical estimation of steady and unsteady aerodynamics of thin lifting surface is conducted based on an integral equation relating aerodynamic pressure and normal wash velocity. The present work attempts to increase the acc

Conversion of Strontium Hydroxyapatite Nanopowders to Porous Scaffolds for Bone Implant Application
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The fabrication of strontium hydroxyapatite (SrHA) porous scaffolds was accomplished by using polymeric sponge method. To prepare the porous samples, the synthesized SrHA nanopowders were mixed with distilled water and appropriate amount of dispersing agent followed by drying in the ambient air and sintering at 1300°C. The compressive strength of

Ethem Beu Mosque, Tirana, a Sparkle of Islamic Architecture in Albania
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

With the advent of Islam as a religion in Albania, Islamic architecture was developed in parallel with the events during that time. In the period when the centralization of the Turkish Empire had reached its peak, during fifteen and sixteen (XV-XVI) centuries, Ottoman art in Albania was very significant in religious buildings. The Islamic Architect

Acquisition of a Very Low Voltage and a Low Frequency Biomedical Signal- Frequency Selective Filter Design
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this paper we present a review on the frequency content and voltage level in biomedical signals beside showing how extraction of chosen features and parameters from these signals, are important for many medical diagnostic applications. A 4th order band-pass filter using high and low-pass Sallen Key active filters are proposed, and the values of
