Aesthetics in Built Environment
Islamic Approach in Applied Arts and Design
Jamilah Othman
Norzalifa Zainal Abidin and Spahic Omer
CATALOGUE 2014
3
Culture, sustainability and ecology are among the important issues
that the contributors of this book thought worthwhile to explore.
In the discipline of built environment, the reconciling of the issues
observed to implicate aesthetics visually and philosophically.
Perhaps, among the laymen, aesthetics is not a popular word used
to describe beauty of an object. Usually the term beautiful is more
preferred and may be this is due to the simplicity or less technical
of wording. On the other hand, aesthetics is most preferred among
the professionals and practitioners in the built environment, where
the word is commonly used to describe beauty in nature, artwork,
lifestyle, man-made structures and etc. In this book, the value of
aesthetics can be philosophically, technically and scientifcally
examined through the chapters provided. Te ideas suggested here,
can be considered pragmatic, since the contents of the chapters
have concerned for good cultural, sustainability and ecological
practice in the scenario of built environment.

Tis book, connotes some interpretations and observations on
how Islam expressed its fundamental concepts and approaches
in its identifcation and expression of Beauty and other Ismaic
concepts within the Built Environment , be it in the architecture
and building interiors , arts and decoration. Tis relatively, due to
the assimilation of Islam in the human culture and the way Islam
is expressed by mankind in their built environment. In this book
, issues were discussed on the fundamentals in Islam such as the
philosophy of Beauty within the Islamic worldview. Te other
chapters were giving some examples on how these philosophies and
fundamentals were translated in the aesthetic expression within
the built environment such as the architecture, interiors of building
and arts. Te examples covered from the old traditional buildings
and towards the new approach of designing new interior spaces.
However, as the Khalifah , vicegerent of Allah, the responsibilities
to maintain the basic fundamentals and the translation of Islamic
values within the built environment and as part of the applied arts
and design components, are very signifcant with their context to
relate towards the basic responsibilities of mankind as the Khalifah, or vicegerent to Allah. Te discussions
by the authors are shared in view to have better understanding on how Islam promotes and infused its
concepts and philosophies together in our daily life and built environment, thus becomes our expression of
culture within the applied arts and design, and their environment.

Mariana Mohamed Osman, Rustam Khairi Zahari,
and Syahriah Bachok
Malaysia Case Studies of Urban and Regional Planning is another
continued efort by academicians from the Kulliyyah of Architecture
and Environmental Design (KAED) of the International Islamic
University Malaysia (IIUM) in sharing their research outputs with
the decision-makers, practitioners, stakeholders, students of built
environment as well as interested members of the public. Cities
in Malaysia are increasingly faced by ever changing development.
Nowadays, the concept of urban and urbanism in regards to
problems such as increasing population, multiplicity in number
of cities, air and noise pollution and trafc jams evolved in deep
variation and changes. It is obvious that rapid changes in physical
and economic development joint with social changes will have an
infuence on live dynamic of cities.
Sustainability approach to city planning for development in
Malaysia is expected to encounter many issues extending from
the provision and location of various public facilities to resolving
transport and environment related problems including legal issues
and also food security for city residents. To promote sustainable
city, the initiatives merged with community development together
with physical design without compromising the future needs
as sustainable city is a city based on patterns of production and
consumption that can be pursued into the future without degrading
the human or natural environment.
Cities planning and Urban studies is very broad based subject
that covers technical and political process concerned with the
control of the use of land and design of the urban environment,
including transportation networks, to guide and ensure the orderly
development of settlement and communities. Te wide ranging
topics in this Book refect the various dimensions of cities and
urban planning that is holistic and comprehensive. One of the key
objectives of this Book is to provide a platform for town planners
to share new ideas and experiences on cities and urban planning.
Tis edited book has addressed the above mentioned sustainable
planning issues and challenges in the Malaysian cities in the ten
chapters that it contains.

Islamic Ethics and Character Building
Introduction to Malay Manuscript
Fatimah Abdullah
Wan Ali Wan Mamat
CATALOGUE 2014
5
Te present book attempts to present Islamic ethics frst from
its multifaceted nature; ethics as akhlq is presented from the
psychological, educational and spiritual aspects and every bit of
character building or ethic is supported by pertinent verses of the
Holy Quran, the stories of the Prophets and the srah and shamil
of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). Second, an efort
is made to present Islamic ethics from the practical and modern
angles. To enliven this discipline we have relied on Taawwuf
area that have been neglected by earlier researchers. In fact most
of the early f scholars such as al-Ghazl, al-Musib and
al-Balkh were Islamic psychologists who did their best to
spiritually invigorate their disciples and refne their character. Tis
approach of f ethics or Taawwuf with its self-introspection
in nature will serve as underpinning of individual and societal
wellbeing and mental health that conditioned the development
and prosperity of the ummah.
Malay manuscripts are ofen said as records of intellectual and
cultural development and writing practices of Malay people.
It is the product of transmission and achievement of Malay
civilization over generations. In the past, studies on Malay
manuscripts have been concentrated very much on contents
or intellectual perspectives in a manuscript but very little on
physical, cultural or writing tradition of manuscripts. A study on
the contents of a Malay manuscript would be more informative
if some information on writing and book making practices of
the manuscripts concerned are explained. Tis book focuses on
physical or cultural perspectives in Malay writing tradition and
book making like writing material used, preparation of paper
surface for writing and its general look, Malay handwriting and
its development, the Jawi script, author and authorship etc. I
hope this book will generate more interest to Malay manuscripts
and Malay writing traditions.

System Modeling Simulation and Control
The Life of Place: Spaces, Places and Narratives
Khalilah Zakariya, Nor Zalina Harun,
Nurhayati Abdul Malek and Mazlina Mansor
Tis book aims at probing the true objective of legal education,
mainly in the Malaysian context. Legal education is generally
perceived as a means of entering into a lucrative profession. Such
an objective narrows down to acquiring a bookish knowledge of
case law and statutory rules, without bothering too much about
their rationale, social relevance and fairness. Consequently, it fails
to produce questioning minds. What legal education should aim at
is to produce lawyers who are receptive to the ideas of justice and
fair play and able to see the confict between law and justice and
the gap that exists between law in books and law in action. Tus,
a holistic legal education is what a law school should aim at. Te
book also gives an account of legal education and research at the
Ahmad Ibrahim Kulliyyah of Laws, IIUM, and how this university
is trying to focus attention on the Islamic context of legal education.
Te book is a collection of selected case studies predominantly
in Malaysia and an international case study in New Zealand that
examines peoples experiences in public spaces. Te public spaces
gathered in this book include street markets, parks, historical sites,
open spaces, coastal areas and cities. Written from the perspective
of peoples experiences and responses towards the selected public
spaces, the aim of the book is to share their narratives as users, as
a way of guiding designers and planners how they might re-think
about engaging with places and people.

Nurul Hamiruddin Salleh
Mohd Mahyudi Mohd Yusop, Naziruddin Abdullah
CATALOGUE 2014

Tis book is intended to appeal to people interested in doing
research in architecture and the built environment Being both
comprehensive and could act as an entry level point into the world
of research in architecture, this book targets primarily, fnal year
undergraduate and post graduate students and anybody interested
in doing research in these feld. Trough the topics covered in
the book varied methods researches were introduced to, perhaps,
whet the interests of budding researchers as how to conduct their
impending issues and questions yet unanswered. Although the
topics covered are not as varied but it would serve as a guide to
construct and undertake a research project as ofered by the
authors in answering their research question.
Tis edited book aims to raise issues pertaining to the topic of
zakat and its primary goal of poverty alleviation. It portrays
the dynamism of zakat by highlighting pertinent issues on the
management of zakat institutions and innovative programmes that
are designed as efective distribution mechanisms. Discussions
include zakat payment motives, ways to measure the efciency of
zakat disbursement, economic development initiatives, housing
programme, microfnancing, and actual impact on poverty
alleviation. Te discussions raised put emphasis on policy-
orientation with dedicated sections on policy implications and
recommendations. Tis approach is deemed necessary since it
could guide the thought process of interested parties towards
the creation of new ideas to actualize zakat as a very reliable tool
in addressing the massive problem of poverty among Muslim
communities. Tis special feature also signifcantly adds to the
much-needed reference materials in courses on zakat at the
intermediate level of undergraduate studies and introductory level
of postgraduate programmes.

Understanding Sociological Issues: Conceptualizing The Diversities
Tis book aims at probing the true objective of legal
education, UNDERSTANDING SOCIOLOGICAL ISSUES:
CONCEPTUALIZING THE DIVERSITIES is an attempt to
incorporate a number of existing societal issues which seem to
be sociologically signifcant and empirically relevant. Te topics
chosen for this book thus contain some prolifc discussion in the
contemporary sociological discourse. Prudentially, the mode is a
new venture to make the discipline useful to researchers focusing
on a few contemporary thematic issues based on diversities; this
book serves to disentangle strands of thinking in an integrated
manifestation. Te book begins with a critical thinking of theoretical
sociology as it has been revealed in the Islamic perspective which
is followed by another more or less sequential paper on poverty
and resource inequality that prevail among the Muslim nations.
Gender issues have also been dealt with signifcant importance by
including two papers in this volume. An important and signifcantly
inquisitive chapter on menopausal symptoms highlights the
preferred menopausal treatment techniques among the urban
Malay women from medical and anthropological perspective.
A chapter on the reemergence of plantation-agriculture gives
clear indication that although plantation agriculture has been
reemerging to make some sort of transformation in the agrarian
sector, in reality, it does not help the poor as expected. Te book
also contains performances and socio-cultural adaptability
of the Bangladeshi migrant workers. Tis book has brought a
new diversion in the feld of sociological research. Students and
researchers in Sociology will undoubtedly fnd it useful for their
future academic perseverance.

Cell and Tissue Culture: Research and Technology from Islamic Perspective
Mohammad Syaiful Bahari Abdull Rasad
Tis book is an attempt to capture the principles of human or animal
cell culture and issues from Islamic perspective. Tere are many
achievements which were made possible through the development
and advancement of science and technology in the area of cell and
tissue culture. Nowadays, the technologies available to mankind
are far more sophisticated and advanced. Most assuredly, these
technologies have, and will make, a great impact on the life of
mankind and their well being. Consequently, for Muslims, the
concern lies not on the advancement, but on whether the laws and
regulations of Islam are wisely and properly inculcated into these
progressions of science and technology so that they are parallel to
the will and wishes of Allah S.W.T.

Issues in Islamization of Human Knowledge
Muhammad Mumtaz Ali
Islamization of Knowledge is a very signifcant issue being
pondered over and discussed in the higher institutions of learning
the world over particularly in the Islamic educational centers. Tis
issue has attracted the attention of scholars and students across
the world. Yet, not much has been written in detail on this subject
that could quench the thirst of academia and intelligentsia. Tis
book serves as an authentic reading on the issue in Islamization of
knowledge. Professor Mumtaz, keeping the pressing need of the
time in view, has identifed four thinkers who could be considered
ideologues in Islamization of Knowledge. He has reliably analyzed
their views on the subject. Te books main thirst is on the concept
and methodology of Islamization of Knowledge. In addition, the
author has presented Islamization of Knowledge as a universal
and people oriented perspective and asserted that it should not
be perceived as a mere religious and parochial discourse. Te
author has highlighted and elaborated main themes and issues in
Islamization of Knowledge which were otherwise scattered here
and there in the writings on Islamization of Knowledge. One of the
arguments of this book is that the rise and fall of a nation depends
much on the rise and fall of its intellectual development. Te book
may rightly claim to be the frst of its kind.

Handbook on Human Physiology : The Special Senses
Nilar Aung, Ailin Razali and Maung Maung Cho
Te basic sciences have always played an essential role in the
training of doctors. Te scope of special senses had been widen
and hence became more complicated among the medical students.
Vision, hearing, smell and taste considered a special senses and
each of these special senses works in concert with the nervous
system to assist the body in coping with the environment changes
experienced through the day. Te impetus of writing this book is to
provide comprehensive knowledge of the special senses, laid out in
a very simplistic manner. Terefore, it is hoped that this handbook
will be a helpful for medical, dental, pharmacy, allied health
sciences students as well as clinicians, nurses, and health workers.
Tey will fnd it a valuable aid to learning, reference and revision.
Te state of the young people has always been of national interest,
in any society, perhaps particularly so for a developing country like
Malaysia. It is well accepted that the youths are the future leaders
of a nation, hence, there is a need to constantly be aware of their
well-being and their environment. And since the world is changing
at such a rapid pace, what adolescence was like for the majority of
contemporary adults might not be the case for the contemporary
adolescents. Te adolescents today are dealing with things that adults
today did not have much to do with when they were adolescents, such
as globalization, the digital age, environmental challenges, to name
but a few. Hence, adults cannot simply project their experiences to
these adolescents in their dealings with or about them.
It is with this view that the study was carried out and the book was
written. Studies should not be done just for the sake of carrying out
research and fulflling ones job description, but as social scientists,
we have a responsibility to share this with a wider audience, and not
be limited to a select few in the feld. Hence, the book is written in
a way that would convey the information to the general audience
clearly without compromising on the scientifc aspect of the data.
Tis book gathered expertise from diferent areas, and this is one of
the major advantages in this study. In addition to being a nationwide
study, with respondents coming from rural, urban and provincial
areas, from the various ethnic groups and various socioeconomic
groups, adolescents were asked about various aspects of their
development, allowing us to get a richer profle of the adolescent.
Although presented separately, these various domains all come from
the same pool of respondents, and taken together, they present a more
holistic picture of the contemporary adolescent. Te book begins
with an explanation of the study design and respondents. Each of the
chapters following it presents data from a specifc domain studied,
according to the expertise area of the author(s). Te fnal chapter
puts together a picture of the contemporary Malaysian adolescent.
It is hoped that the information presented in this book will be
valuable to those who work with adolescents directly such as parents,
teachers, counselors and community workers, to name but some and

Tree analytical studies were conducted on the poetry of Marum
al-Rasaf; namely: the political and social criticism in the poetry
of Maruf al-Rasaf , the trinity of poverty, women and children
and a documentary approach to the study of poetry of Maruf
al-Rasaf .
Tree themes intertwine in both content and style, generating ;
an explicit criticism of politics and society, imagery refections
of poverty, women and children and the use of the documentary
approach in the era of electronic encyclopedias.
In the analysis of the al-Rasafs poetry, the author highlights
the concept of social and political criticism, its connection to
literature and the relationship between literature, culture and
politics. this is illustrated in the following poems: Ma Hakada?,
Te Newspapers, Te Ofce of Endowment, Te Army Ofcer
and Fine Arts. In addition, the author emphasizes the importance
of adequately directing the youth in both the poets verse book
and a collection of letters he named Tamaim al-Tarbiyah
wa al-Taleem.
Te content of al-Rasafs poetry was aimed at four levels, namely:
(a) the country of his birth and childhood, (b) the Arab World, (c)
the Islamic World, (d) the Free World.
Several appendices are presented at the end of the research,
containing seven tables adopted from the encyclopaedia of poetry
and ten additional tables containing some of al-Rasafs poetry.
Te purpose behind incorporating these tables is to illustrate
the use of statistics in the formation of precise notions about
these specifc phenomena. Moreover, it was also to illustrate that
computers ofer great possibilities of tracking the connection
between events and their context through looking at the signifcant
terms and expressions used. Te seventeenth appendix illustrates
a comparison between the three editions of his verse book,
specifcally looking at the poems that were not included in each of
these three editions.
Te author has managed to collect and include in this book a
number of magazine articles and chapters in books that have written
on the poetry of Maruf al-Rasaf. Finally, the book concludes with
the list of references and bibliography that-we hope-provides
substantial materials that can be used in future research.

Public Private Partnership (PPP): Malaysian Studies
Real Money: Money and Payment Systems from an Islamic Perspective
Suhaiza Ismail
Ahamed Kameel Mydin Meera
Public Private Partnerships (PPP) or also known as Private Finance
Initiative (PFI) was ofcially unveiled in Malaysia under the Ninth
Malaysia Plan in 2006. Te increasing number of public projects
implemented via PPP procurement has created interest among
researchers to undertake studies on PPP, hence this is edited book.
Tis book is a compilation of the research on PPP in Malaysia.
It comprises of nine papers on various aspects of PPP including
concept and development, evaluation and performance, regulations
and other related issues on implementation of PPP in diferent
sectors. Tis book is expected to beneft various parties including
the government, private sector, researchers and the public at large
as its primary aim is to inform and update the readers about the
current PPP development in Malaysia.
Tis theoretical paper reasons with simple deductions, that
the maqid al-Sharah are impossible to be attained in an
interest-based fat monetary system. Te issue at hand is
the seigniorage of fat money and the question of what
constitutes money. Using the quantity theory of money and the
socio-economic implications of the current monetary system, the
paper argues that, indeed, on the contrary, the interest-based fat
monetary system works in contrast to the maqid. Tis strong
yet important contention has serious implications to the extent
that the process of Islamization of knowledge/disciplines is futile
without addressing this issue frst. Accordingly, the establishment
of Islamic economics, banking and fnance, therefore, warrants a
serious look into the current defnition of money and monetary
systems. Te paper argues that the seigniorage of fat money is
indeed a profound rib and that commodity monies like gold and
silver, as Sharah compliant money, are compatible with the
maqid.

Price: RM 46.00
Pages: 228
Year : 2013
Te urban trafc system constitutes a group of interdependent
and interrelated trafc, and related components which are
intended to form a unifed entity to accomplish smooth, orderly
and safe movement of vehicles in an urban area. Trip attractions
at urban areas are normally very high due to high density
commercial and business land uses. As a result, the increasing
number of vehicles especially private cars travelling towards city
areas has caused tremendous pressure on the limited road and
related infrastructure, especially in urban areas. Increase in trafc
congestion, environmental pollution, travel time, discomfort
and inconveniences, and decrease in speed are the common and
regular efects resulting from increased trafc volume and limited
road infrastructure. Understanding the efects of increase in trafc
trends on road and related infrastructure is, thus, important. Tis
book emphasizes on the characteristics of trafc components which
include trafc volume, speed, road intersection, road capacity,
level of service, parking, trafc control devices, road safety,
trafc management measures and trafc calming. Te literature
background, analysis procedures and fndings based on data
related to each of these trafc elements are discussed in this book.
Tis book is expected to further strengthen the literature on each
of the selected trafc components, especially in the local context. It
is also expected to benefts students, especially in higher learning
institutions and professionals in the feld of urban trafc system,
trafc planning and engineering, to understand the methodology
involved to collect and analyse trafc data to arrive at important
decisions related to smooth, orderly and safe trafc movements.

Legal Education in Malaysia
Tis book aims at probing the true objective of legal education,
mainly in the Malaysian context. Legal education is generally
perceived as a means of entering into a lucrative profession. Such
an objective narrows down to acquiring a bookish knowledge of
case law and statutory rules, without bothering too much about
their rationale, social relevance and fairness. Consequently, it fails
to produce questioning minds. What legal education should aim at
is to produce lawyers who are receptive to the ideas of justice and
fair play and able to see the confict between law and justice and
the gap that exists between law in books and law in action. Tus,
a holistic legal education is what a law school should aim at. Te
book also gives an account of legal education and research at the
Ahmad Ibrahim Kulliyyah of Laws, IIUM, and how this university
is trying to focus attention on the Islamic context of legal education.

Mohammad Natsir: Intellectualism and activism in modern age
Sohirin Mohammad Solihin
Mohammad Natsir is one of the prominent Muslim leaders in
the Muslim world. He contributed greatly in Islamic thought,
leadership, socio-religious and political intellectualism in
Indonesia and the Muslim world. His educational background
in the feld of Islamic studies never underwent formal education
like mostly other Muslim scholars. His competency in giving
the exposition on religious texts and the linkage with the socio-
political issues were deserved respect from those Muslim scholars
who, ofcially, earned academic degree such as professorship
and PhD holders, Dr. Abdul Halim Mahmud, former Sheikh
of al-Azhar University, Sheikh Muhammad al-Subayyil,
grand imam of al-Masjid al-Haram, Dr. Muhammad Hussein
al-Dhahabi, prominent scholar in the feld of Quranic exegenis
and the author of celebrated book, al-Tafsir wa al-Mufassirun, and
Mufi of Lebanon gave appreciation on the Natsirs intellectualism.
Within the personality of Natsir it combined two dimensions of
leadership, that of a Muslim politician and a scholar. As a Muslim
who studied Islam in non-academic institution, he earned good
reputation and recognition on global level. In the Islamic thought,
he could be categorized as fundamentalist who frmly believed in
the overall practice of the Shariah but, at the same time he strongly
opposed the establishment of an Islamic state through the separatist
movement. Natsir believed that an Islamic government cannot be
established without the consent of majority. Hence, democratic
process is seen by Natsir as the right channel to accommodate
aspiration of Muslims which, at the end, might lead them into the
establishment of an Islamic order at the same level.

Studies in World Religions: An Introduction to Abrahamic Traditions
Ahmad F. Yousif
Studies in World Religions: An Introduction to Abrahamic
Traditions starts with a general introduction followed by an
analytical probe into the meaning of the discipline of Comparative
Religion and its signifcance, historical development and
methodology. It takes an analytical approach in studying Judaism
and Christianity from religious, historical, social and philosophical
perspectives. What are some of the points of agreement between
the two traditions, and what are some of the areas of contention?
A Quranic perspective on both religions is briefy ofered.
References are made to both primary and secondary sources as
well as classical and modern Islamic literature. Te fnal part of
this volume presents a comparative analysis of fundamentalism
and fanaticism. What provisions are there in the religion of Islam
for dealing with fundamentalist and fanatical elements within its
community? How do Muslim and Western approaches difer in
dealing with these movements? Tis part provides a response to
these questions, in addition to defning the terms fundamentalism
and fanaticism, identifying their causes, the Islamic view on
fanatical groups and the relationship between fanaticism and
contemporary Islamic revivalism, as well as providing suggestions
for how to cure fanaticism. It is expected that the Studies in World
Religions: An Introduction to Abrahamic Traditions will be a
valuable introductory reference work on the Abrahamic traditions,
for Muslim students and public readers. It is hoped that this edition
will fll the existing defciency in the literature in this feld by
adopting a more holistic approach to the discipline of Comparative
Religion.

Islamic dogma and the pillars of Islam and Iman contributed to
deepen the Islamic view of the artistic construction of the African

novelists in this region. Te novels start with: Les Trois volonts

Falsafah al-insan inda Ibnu Khaldun: Rukyah tarbawiyah
Jilani Miftah
Tis book deals with the philosophy of man according to Ibn
Khaldun and its function in the educational process. Tis became
manifest through the study of historical and educational context in
which Ibn Khalduns thought came into being, and an in-depth study
of philosophy of man along with its impacts on his epistemology,
which contribute to the formulation of his educational systems and
methodologies.
Tis book has come out with some fndings:
1. Corruption of the humanity of human being and the loss of
human value in the Islamic world of the past and present are due to
the poorness of politics and education.
2. Crisis in the Islamic world is actually the crisis of education. To cope
with this crisis will depend on the validity and comprehensiveness of
the educational concept pertaining to the type and quality of man to
be produced. Te most appropriate and comprehensive concept that
encompasses all human dimensions, physical, spiritual and moral,
is the concept of Islamic vicegerency
and its consequential understanding of the nature, sources and
types of knowledge; and of the delineation of which knowledge
matters the vicegerent; of the classifcation of knowledges; and the
relationship between each other.

3. Te vicegerency-based understanding of the nature of
education, its function and goals, and the methods of constructing
the educational system, the ways to deliver and to evaluate, are the
prerequisite for civilizational reform and revivalism.
