The Guiding Principles to Enhance a Sociable
Environment: Insights from Islamic Built
Environment

ABSTRACT

Sociable environment is significant in creating a peace and harmony society.
Previous research has argued on the alarming today's weak social ties among
members of the society, due to the lacking of social interaction and civic
engagement. The weak social ties may occasionally develop social segregation
issues which are harmful to the community. The issue worsens as some modern
citizens are described as too engaged with technology and have less interest in
being physically engaged in societal activities. The poor level of participation
might jeopardize the formation of harmony and a sustainable society in the
future. Employing a systematic procedure of content analysis, this article
conceptually delves into the potential solutions to empower a sociable
environment from the Islamic point of view. Based on traditional Islamic
perspectives in the built environment, there are several guiding principles that
govern the social interaction and social responsibility among society members,
as proposed in this article.

ABSTRACT

The research interest among architectural undergraduate students is vital for
their academic achievements. A research dissertation is important and leads to
the development of knowledge. Undergraduate students are lacking a
structured application to assist them in planning their research journeys and
poor time management. Hence, contributes towards poor preparation for the
future task that leads to delay in submission of the dissertation. This paper aim
is to visualize the process of undergraduate research activities by using mobile
application namely as MYDISSERTPLANNER. In line with this aim, three research
objectives had been established to identify the key problem faced by the
students during the dissertation process and, to visualize a mobile application
that integrates planning and dissertation guideline and to visualize the
MYDISSERTPLANNER mobile apps. The data is gathered by analyzing a pilot
survey that involved undergraduate students in UiTM Perak. The data were
analyzed using descriptive analysis. The finding reveals that the majority of
students have difficulty in managing the research process and contribute to
delaying the submission of their dissertation. Therefore, there is a significant
need in developing MYDISSERTPLANNER as a mobile application to ease
undergraduate students in planning their research activities.

ABSTRACT
This research aim is to discover the essential characteristics of the Malaysian
Batik, which fundamentally portray the cultural identity of Malay community.
Malay identity should be identified, analysed and retained to as it is part of
Malaysian heritage. The modernization of Malaysia brought about many
positive changes but it has also impacted on Malay culture especially related to
the idea of Malay Batik identity or authenticity. In this research, the recognition
of these essential cultural characteristics which support the idea of authenticity
will be done according to Roland Barthes Semiotic Theory which broke down
the process of reading signs or motifs and focused on their interpretation by
traditional Malay batik practitioners or designers. The `Thick Descriptions’
approach invented by Clifford Geertz will also be implemented as a way of
providing cultural context and meaning related to Malay traditional batik motif.

*Corresponding author: [email protected]
ABSTRACT
AI, an Industry 4.0 enabling technology, comprises software for adoption via
Enterprise Systems (ES). Despite its application in high-profile areas, AI’s
utilisation in the print manufacturing sector is still scarce. Competitiveness and
advances in this sector urgently require higher value-added processes, including
digitisation, incorporation of advanced manufacturing technologies and
efficient resource utilisation. As this paper will outline, challenges in
organisational adoption of AI demands systematic assessment of the fit and
viability of software implementations in heterogeneous, concurrent and
integrated systems while accounting for the performance, efficiency, stability
and sustainability of the sector. As such, we develop a working framework for
further assessment based on multiple theories and case studies, with particular
attention to the Fit-Viability Model (FVM). The expected outcome is a clear path
toward enhanced interoperability of equipment or systems, integration into
Industry 4.0, and a fulfillment of Malaysia’s commitment to the UN's SDGs,
namely Goals #9 and #12.

Cultural Consciousness: A Case Study of Dying Art on Batik Block

in Malaysia

*Corresponding author: [email protected]

ABSTRACT
Malaysia's traditional batik block is the legacy and treasure of the country.
However, it has slowly faded nearing extinction, particularly in the east coast
region. Nowadays in the context of globalization and rapid technological
change, the production of batik block is become difficult when younger
generations are no longer interested in block making. Therefore, only a few
master block makers left in Malaysia. Cultural sustainability of block makers is
needed through the innovation of Batik block towards Batik community and
society. This research paper aims to create the traditional block more
interesting and stimulating through innovation that does not change the
original block state by using the design thinking approach on using modular
concepts in making batik blocks. Surely, the art of block making will continue to
thrive from the findings, thus contributing to flourish besides enhance
appreciation and sustain Malaysia's heritage traditional culture.

*Corresponding author: [email protected]

ABSTRACT
This study is about an overview about the formation of the kain batik lepas that
develop at the state of Kelantan. Kain batik lepas also was known as kain
panjang. The kain panjang, sometimes just called a kain, is of the same width as
a sarung, but greater length. It is not sewn into a tube but left free at the ends.
The kain panjang is wrapped around the lower body, in a clockwise direction for
women, or anti-clockwise for men. It is usually folded or pleated to fit and
fastened by tucking in at the waist. The research was conducted to identify the
motif and design in kain batik lepas Kelantan and to analyze the motifs of kain
batik lepas Kelantan through observation, field visit, photo documentation and
interview session with staff museum and kain batik lepas expertise and
practitioner. The motif was analyzed through formalistic analysis. The motif
identified in these kain batik lepas Kelantan are inspired by flora, fauna and
cosmological. Each of the motifs that represent in the kain batik lepas Kelantan
contains its own meaning based on history, belief, religion, and culture. It is the
way to cultivate and maintain the identity of motif and design of kain batik lepas
as one of our heritage. Various opinions and related information on the motif
and design of kain batik lepas Kelantan were founded.

*Corresponding author: [email protected]

ABSTRACT

The crafts of traditional Malaysian houses design are known for their
uniqueness which heavily influenced by the ancient Malay culture and
indigenous peoples such as Orang Asli, Dayak, Anak Negeri and the cultures of
Malaysia's second main ethnics groups - the Chinese and Indian. It was since our
long back history where our culture has been blended together to create
Malaysia's diverse heritage. Sadly, Malaysian are slowly losing their ancient
culture due to the modernization era. One particular culture of Malaysia that is
close to extinction is Baba Nyonya or Peranakan culture. Now even Baba
Nyonya are quite famous for their delicious Peranakan cooking, thus their
intricate design-crafts can as well be seen through their traditional built houses.
As for the mediator, from previous preliminary study indicates a moveable
kitchen cart as a potential mainstream product as product focus to be
developed. This study, therefore, provides a significant discussion of the
forgotten yet potential design elements depicted from their traditional design
houses features as representation to both aesthetic and functional criteria; alas
it can be one way of an awareness campaign in the design process to sustain on
of Baba Nyonya or Peranakan heritage.

ABSTRACT

This paper discusses the challenges on developing new programme that could
be recognized between Malaysian and European countries. It became crucial
since it involves readiness for future production toward the Industry4.0 policies
and how it may gardening innovation in education systems. The essential goal
of Industry4.0 is to make manufacturing and related industries such as design
faster, more efficient and more customer-centric, while at the same time going
beyond automation and optimization and detect new business opportunities
and models. At this point, frontier technologies identified by select
organizations to re-present the characteristic of Industry4.0. However, no
universally agreed definition of frontier technology and it shows that the
following technologies have been most commonly identified as frontier: 3D
printing, the Internet of Things, AI, and robotics. The reviews of COPPA between
European-Malaysian with the reason to develop a Master's Degree for
engineers of furniture smart factories, that will modernize Higher Education
degrees, by focusing on the ICTs skill needs to increase competitiveness of the
wood and furniture industry of Malaysia. Comparative studies of the existing
frame of references have been selected as the methodology. The results
indicated that a framework of qualifications must be fit for purpose. As we can
see, what exactly 'fit of purpose' entails, depends to some extent on the setting.
To put it simply, whether or not a framework is 'fit for purpose' depends on its
purpose.

ABSTRACT

Cultural heritage can be defined as a tangible and Intangible form in art and design. The
tangible aspect involves artefacts that features the culture of any society inherited from
previous generations, maintained in the present and bestowed for the benefit of future
generations. Heritage artefacts, which Includes those exhibited and archived in
museums and galleries are always in danger of being deteriorated due to exposure or
the unconducive environment or thrown away unless a good system of preserving them
are in place. As to preserve and conserve these valuable artefacts, a good archiving
framework and state of the art technology need to be engaged for the perpetual
recording of the artefacts. Therefore, the objective of this study is to retain the cultural
heritage objects into visual digitalisation for constant archiving of cultural artefacts. The
methodology is based on qualitative methods where specific methods of artefact
archiving are studied then an adaptive framework for indoor and outdoor artefact
preservation (physically and digitally) is proposed. These will involve the identification,
assessment survey and observation, then to classify and categorise the types of heritage
objects and material. There are two aspects of artefact preservation, namely physical
and visual preservation through digitations. The visual digitisation and drawing system
will support the careful observation of the objects and conceived the record for the novel
design construction. The visual archiving method provides a link between different
professionals such as the archaeologist, conservators, architects, or even scientists. The
outcome will be a proposed artefact archiving framework for the proper protocol of
cultural preservation through visual digitisation. This study will contribute to the pool of
fundamental knowledge. In archiving method and provide a means for future generation
and stakeholders to refer to their sustainable cultural heritage and in line with the
national revolution for this country.

ABSTRACT

E-Learning is considered as an important teaching and learning methodology
nowadays, as the technological wave hits the century in a fast pace. In order
to get an insight of what is happening in online learning environment, a study
has been carried out to examine the factors of student involvement in E-
Learning at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM). Adapted from the past
researches, the factors examined were the interaction between student and
educator, the graphic design interface and the strong network coverage in
using E-Learning. Three (3) hypotheses were developed to link those factors
with the students' virtual learning participation. After running the analysis, the
result showed that the factors mentioned correlated positively with the
students' involvement in E-Learning. Plus, the main reason for them to get
involve in the virtual learning was because of having a strong network
coverage. In sum, the students' participation in E-Learning is seen as crucial
with the modernisation of teaching and learning. With androids in their hands,
accessibility and connectivity should be the main priority, together with
attractive graphics and emojis, and of course the educators' online presence
for students' interaction moment.

ABSTRACT

Internationalisation plays a huge role in the evolution of the higher education institution.
It is not possible without passion, motivation and the concerted effort of lecturers,
administrators and students. Education 5.0 @ UiTM, highlights the high impact
educational practice i.e. global learning where students could gain a more expansive
understanding and global consciousness about various fields. Students would also learn,
interrogate and reflect about the world without physically crossing a geographic border.
It is about the moving of minds and not bodies through virtual mobility and exchanges,
lectures, seminars via various synchronous online platforms. Inspired by solving the issue
of non-authentic learning experience in classrooms, two Global Learning modules were
conducted on two groups of students. The feedback revealed that students have gained
new insights in the topics related; furthermore, transformed their understanding and
thinking. This teaching approach is advocated to inspire learning as well as learning
beyond the basis senses and non-conventional delivery. Students were given the
opportunities to explore cultures, life experiences and worldview different from their
own. The modules were implemented to instigate real-context learning process. Native
speakers of English were brought into classrooms to speak about relevant topics at
authentic settings where students participated and engaged actively in the process of
learning. The first global learning project (GLP) was a joint-lecture on inter-cultural
communication between a lecturer from UiTM Shah Alam and another from Frankfurt
University of Applied Sciences, Germany. The second GLP provided opportunities for
students to engage with two experts in the field of cyber law and cyber crime attached
to the US Embassy. These platforms were provisions for authentic learning experiences
to allow appreciation of diversity and awareness of multiple perspectives by students.

ABSTRACT

Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) especially those related to occupational work
or termed as WMSDs are the most common health issue that are experienced
by workers in all work sectors. Either due to the human errors in practicing safe
and proper work procedures or due to inconvenient and faulty workplaces, this
illness has caused both employers and employees great economic losses
especially when it ends with injuries or crashes. However when observing the
prevalence of MSDs among motorcyclists, again the focus were put among
those that use motorcycle during their duties making it very much work-related.
For example police riders, postal delivery workers, and currently food delivery
services. But how about those non-occupational motorcyclists or commuting
workers that only use their motorcycle to commute to work, or weekend-
motorcyclist going for prolonged motorcycle rides? Upon this matter, it became
the motivation of this study to look into the possibilities of MSDs prevalence
especially related to muscle fatigue among these group of motorcyclists based
on a survey and indoor prolonged motorcycle riding simulations that were
deployed and conducted earlier. Outcomes of this study suggested several
other MSD issues that are possible to take place involving other body regions.
These possible MSDs were found to not being highlighted in work-related MSDs
literatures with respect to motorcyclists which provide gaps for further
investigation and validation.

ABSTRACT
Technology is making visually impaired people's lives easier in many ways, but
Braille still holds an extremely valuable place in day-to-day life and is still often
the best way for people to get information. It seems, if Braille were to be lost,
blind people would almost certainly be excluded from some areas of life, and
be more limited in their work and social options. Blind people confront a
number of visual challenges every day. While many tools have been introduced
to help address these problems using computer vision and other sensors, their
capabilities are dictated as much by the state-of-the-art in technology as they
are by real human problems. A deeper understanding of the questions that
blind people would like to ask in their day-to-day lives may help to direct
innovation to solve them. This paper aims to identify the ways and challenges
visually impaired people to face product labeling. The result of these findings
helps to improve our understanding of the problems blind people face and may
help in analyzing potential braille product labeling tools to help blind people live
more independently in their everyday lives.

ABSTRACT
This paper discusses how designer formulates the idea via unstructured
approached in furniture design. The problem can be seen via the strategy,
methods and process of hermeneutics design. Hermeneutics is a method or
principle of interpretation. In this context, Hermeneutics is the art of
understanding and making oneself understood. It goes beyond mere logical
analysis and general interpretive principles. The objective of this study is to see
how designer interpret the subjective visual idea intuitively. The methodology
of visual protocol analysis has been used in order to understand the designer
intuitive thinking related to cognitive ergonomics aspect. The uses of 15
minutes video observation based on short-terms memory indicates designers
reflects several properties of form, i.e., gestalt, features, and component of a
form if the several objects used by a designer as a mood board. The results show
that the metaphorical form is embodied and it is important for designers to
visualize something unstructured visual form implicitly into tangible form
explicitly. Keywords: Cognitive, Ergonomics, Formgiving, Furniture design,

ABSTRACT

Mediation (sulh) is a centuries-old Arab-Islamic, practiced since the time of
Prophet Muhammad PBUH and mentioned in the Al-Quran. This dispute
resolution process is not widely practiced in another legal system but recently
reintroduced and gaining popularity among the legal fraternity. In Malaysia,
sulh is limited to solve matrimonial disputes such as divorce, jointly acquired
property, etc. This method is proved to be efficient and unique as it recognized
the consensus among the disputing parties. The main objective of this paper is
to explore the roles of mediation (sulh) in resolving the neighborhood dispute
from the Islamic jurisprudence perspective. Empirically, this research is based
on the judgment of comprehensive cases of neighborhood conflict in the built
environment. This qualitative study adopts the content analysis method from
the classical Islamic jurisprudence text; Kitab Al-Ghayah Wa Nihayah and other
related resources to accomplish the research objective. It is found that the
integration of sulh managed to minimize legal wrangling and be part of a valid
and flexible peace-making instrument. Therefore, it is hoped that the inclusion
of sulh can be applied in the contemporary neighborhood disputes to achieve
the social well-being goals for society.

ABSTRACT

Successful urbanization highly depends on good urban management. Indeed,
good urban management is indispensable to improvise the quality of life and
resolve issues and challenges resulted from the process of urbanization. Looking
back into the glorious Islamic civilization, the cities were described to be
systematically managed by a group of muhtasib via the institution of Hisba.
Inspired by the previous success, modern Muslim leaders are trying to revive
the Islamic paradigm of urban management. Nevertheless, not much is being
discussed on the role of muhtasib and the institution of Hisba has been wrongly
understood only as a market supervisor or inspector. Thus, employing content
analysis approach, this article examines the roles and responsibilities of
muhtasib in urban management, based on selected manuals of muhtasib,
written during the medieval Islamic times. Interestingly, the findings indicate a
series of Islamic principles on urban management that match modern urban
management albeit the difference of time. The untapped Islamic urban
management is seen as systematic and meticulous towards safeguarding the
well-being of citizens.

ABSTRACT

Providing psycho-spiritual intervention is crucial to mitigate any long-term adverse
psychological impact on a problematic person. Studies have shown that patients who
attend religious services, have better long-term health-care outcomes. Religiosity and
spiritual experiences are especially associated with better physical and mental health,
less need for health services, faster recovery from illness and increased longevity.
Unfortunately, in any disasters or calamities, psycho-spiritual consequences are given
less emphasis. In fact, to date, there has been no specific and comprehensive religious
based model being introduced to the victims in minimizing the risks of psycho-spiritual
impacts. Therefore, the objective of this study is to describe a proposed model of psycho-
spiritual support for disaster victims based on the Islamic principles of maqasid Shariah.
The study employed qualitative method using the instrument of interview and library
research. The interview was conducted to get required information as well as feedbacks
on the model. Prior to that, library research was conducted to examine the guiding
principles relating to psycho-spiritual support based on the primary sources of Islam and
writings of contemporary scholars. This is important to understand the application of
Islamic values in psycho-spiritual support system. It is expected that the suggested model
of psycho-spiritual could be used as a guideline for any agencies, NGO's or individuals
who assist survivors of disaster.

ABSTRACT
This paper focuses on 'The Impacts of Gadget Use on Maqasid Shariah in the
Context of Mind Preservation: A Study Among UiTM Shah Alam Students'.
Among the positive impacts of using gadgets is nurturing mindfulness of the
respondents by consistently developing a culture of knowledge, developing
talent, potential, and creativity, exposing to the latest information, eliminating
stress and the like. However, the use of gadgets also has negative impacts which
can lead to high dependence on the gadget and cause laziness to think.
Therefore, the use of gadgets in Islam must be subjected to the restrictions of
Islamic law; where it is allowed as it brings benefits (maslahah) to the users.
Meanwhile, the usage is prohibited if it leads to harm or causes negative
impacts. It is hoped that this study will assist the relevant parties in addressing
the abuse of gadgets through the recommendation of appropriate guidelines
for optimal, positive, comprehensive, balanced and practical use of gadgets
among teenagers.

*Corresponding author: [email protected]
ABSTRACT
Language usage in a court trial of a criminal case is usually associated with utterances
that lead to justification of the imposed punishment for the offender. Utterances of
justification are usually categorized as performative speech act. Austin (1962) stated that
utterances can be classified into two, namely constative and performative utterances.
This study is conducted to explain the types of speech acts present in court trials of a
sexual criminal case to verify both constative and performative utterances that exist in
the trials. Each utterance can be categorized into five types of speech which are
assertive, directives, commissive, declarative and expressive. Speech acts can be
categorized according to the verb usage in the utterance directly or indirectly as
proposed by Searle and Vanderveken (1985). This descriptive study uses the text analysis
technique, by analyzing a case from a court trial. Data of this study are collected from a
court trial of one sexual criminal case. The findings showed that all five types of speech
acts are found in the trial and both constative performative utterances exist.

ABSTRACT
Speech acts are a way to conceptualize speech as an action. Speech act of
flaming is an utterance that expresses insults; swearing; and hateful; intense
language in hostile online interaction. Flaming is an expressive speech act and
often leads to the trading of insults between members within a certain
conversation. Social media is one of the platforms that has been used to
express, comment and voice out emotions. In this study, the speech act of
flaming in a Twitter status will be analysed based on Malaysian context. The
data of this study is a compilation of Twitter statuses consisting of 2.5 million
words and is labelled as Malaysian Twitter Status Context corpus (MTSC). The
tweets were analysed based on 14 subcategories of flaming (Bansal et.al, 2012
and Revathy & Norizah, 2017). This study adopted the qualitative approach
through a contextual analysis. Findings of this study showed that flaming in
Malaysian context can be direct or intentional; and indirect based on the
intentions (illocutionary force) to offend other tweeters.

ABSTRACT
The emergence of social media influencers in recent years has generated an
'influencer' based marketing practices where business or brand race to exploit
the growing pool of these influencers in order to reach consumers in a more so-
called 'authentic' way, compared to traditional advertising. However, this
phenomenon raises certain legal concerns. One of the most common violation
involving influencers under marketing laws is the issue of lack of full disclosure.
This study examined a segmented part of influencer marketing practices in
Malaysia on the social media platform; Instagram and explores whether
Malaysia warrants a specific regulation, especially when it comes to the issue of
disclosure. The findings of this study are preliminary, but it gives an overview of
the sorts of marketing practices currently employed by social media influencers
in Malaysia, and the frequent lack of disclosure of 'material connection'
between the business or brands and the influencers. The study concludes that
it is high time then, for Malaysia to acknowledge this growing concern in
influencer marketing and welcome changes in the laws in dealing with them.

ABSTRACT

The increasing number of crime rates committed by child offenders is indeed worrying
particularly when they come into contact with law enforcement officers and with the
criminal justice system for the first time. Consequently, many child offenders are
deprived of their liberty and have to serve sentence in institutions across Malaysia.
However, the effectiveness of the current system in preventing children from
committing crime remains an open question because of the high numbers of child
offenders serving their sentences in the institutions. Previous studies that have been
undertaken did not highlight the relationship between gender, age, and education with
the causes underpinning the commission of crime by child offenders in Malaysia. The
objective of this paper is to examine such issues by highlighting the relationship between
age, gender and level of education with causes that contribute to child offenders
committing the crime. A quantitative study was undertaken with 432 child offenders
who were serving sentences in institutions across Malaysia to ascertain the underpinning
causes of them committing crime. The results indicate that compared to age and level of
education, gender seems to play a more prominent factor where more males cited that
economic factors, curiosity, and boredom were the underlying causes behind them
committing the crime and the findings are significant. The implications of the study are
discussed by highlighting effective prevention crime measures that can be undertaken
to prevent children from committing crime and coming into contact with the criminal
justice system.
