The Design of Mosques As Community Development Centers from the Perspective of the Sunna and Wright’S Organic Architecture
THE DESIGN OF MOSQUES AS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CENTERS FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF THE SUNNA AND WRIGHT’S ORGANIC ARCHITECTURE Mohamad Tajuddin Mohamad Rasdi Department of Architecture, Faculty of Built Environment, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Johor Bahru, Malaysia e-mail: [email protected] Nangkula Utaberta Department of Architecture, Faculty of Engineering and Built Environment, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia e-mail:[email protected] Abstract The main purpose of this paper is to present an alternative approach to mosque design with particular reference to the context of Malaysia and the Malay World or the Nusantara. The paper contains four main parts. The first part examines the problem of mosque architectural interpretation from the perspective of Western architectural historiography. The main problems highlighted are those which pertain to the idea of ‘architecture’, ‘religious architecture’, relevance of the body of knowledge known as the ‘Hadith’ and lastly the specific historical-political agenda of some traditional mosques. The second part of the paper expounds briefly a reinterpretation of the hadith in arguing that the mosque approaches more as a community development complex than that as a mere house of rituals. The third part of the paper examines Wright’s Organic Architecture with specific reference to the design of the Unity Church and a few other buildings as containing some important lessons of mosque designs from the perspective of the Sunnah. The final part of the paper uses the principles discussed to criticize the Putra Mosque and the Masjid Negara. Keywords: Sunna, Organic Architecture, mosque design, Frank Lloyd Wright Abstrak Kajian ini berupaya untuk menghadirkan pendekatan alternatif terhadap perancangan masjid dengan referensi kontekstual dari Malaysia atau Nusantara. -

1 The Masjid-i Jami of Herat, the city's first congregational mosque, was built on the site of two smaller Zoroastrian fire temples that were destroyed by earthquake and fire. A mosque construction was started by the Ghurid ruler Ghiyas ad-Din Ghori in 1200 (597 AH), and, after his death, the building was continued by his brother and successor Muhammad of Ghor. In 1221, Genghis Khan conquered the province, and along with much of Herat, the small building fell into ruin. It wasn't until after 1245, under Shams al-Din Kart that any rebuilding programs were undertaken, and construction on the mosque was not started until 1306. However, a devastating earthquake in 1364 left the building almost completely destroyed, although some attempt was made to rebuild it. After 1397, the Timurid rulers redirected Herat's growth towards the northern part of the city. This suburbanization and the building of a new congregational mosque in Gawhar Shad's Musalla marked the end of the Masjid Jami's patronage by a monarchy. 2 This mosque was constructed in 1888 and was the first mosque in any Australian capital city. It has four minarets which were built in 1903 for 150 pounds by local cameleers with some help from Islamic sponsors from Melbourne. Its founding members lie in the quiet part of the South West corner of the city. 3 The Cyprus Turkish Islamic Community of Victoria was established in Richmond, Clifton Hill, and was then relocated to Ballarat Road, Sunshine in 1985 The Sunshine Mosque is the biggest Mosque in Victoria, and has extended its services to cater for ladies, elderly and youth groups. -
Mosque Tourism in Malaysia: a Marketing Perspective
International Journal of Social Science Research e-ISSN: 2710-6276 | Vol. 1, No. 2, 108-120, 2019 http://myjms.moe.gov.my/index.php/ijssr MOSQUE TOURISM IN MALAYSIA: A MARKETING PERSPECTIVE Norhanim Abdul Razak1* 1 School of Tourism, Hospitality and Event Management, College of Law, Government and International Studies, Universiti Utara Malaysia, Sintok, Kedah, MALAYSIA *Corresponding author: [email protected] Accepted: 6 December 2019 | Published: 16 December 2019 Abstract: Mosque tourism is one of the niche areas in the field of Islamic tourism that is expanding rapidly. The presence of mosques with outstanding historical, heritage, and aesthetic values have attracted foreign and domestic tourists to visit, appreciate, and experience these Muslim places of worship. As Islamic tourism is gaining popularity and the importance of mosques as tourist attractions is growing, it is therefore useful to explore mosque tourism in the context of Malaysia. While a number of investigations have researched mosque tourism in the contexts of motivations, residents’ attitudes, and architecture uniqueness, limited studies have examined Muslim places of worship from the perspective of marketing. Hence, this paper focuses on how Malaysian mosques have been promoted in tourism materials. Content analysis was utilised in the assessment of textual descriptions and visual images of mosques that have been featured in tourism promotions for over seven decades. Findings of this paper uncovered that mosques have been represented in tourism brochures published from 1969 to August 2019. Two of the earliest mosques that appeared in tourism brochures are Kapitan Kling Mosque and the Malay Mosque (Masjid Kampung Melayu) in the promotion of Penang as a tourist destination. -

TRANSFORMATION OF MOSQUE ARCHITECTURE IN MALAYSIA: CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF ARCHITECTURAL HISTORY APPROACHES Megat Ariff Shah, Ezrin Arbi & Nila Inangda Faculty of Built Environment, University of Malaya [email protected] ABSTRACT Malaysia’s rich historical background has resulted in a unique local architecture that exhibits complex and wide-ranging variations and influences. Amongst the different types of architecture, mosques are unique as it has an unchanging and eternal primary function – as a place for communal worship – whilst architecturally has been constantly evolving since the earliest mosques were erected in this country. Current inquiries in the field of architectural history of mosques in Malaysia have primarily focused on inventory-based historical studies, comparative studies and thematic studies in the form of monographs, all of which tend to be non-holistic and compartmentalized in their approach. Subsequently, the main objective of this paper is to establish a holistic approach in studying mosque architecture by linking the earliest mosques to contemporary ones and mapping their formal relationships through the use of typological classification. -

[email protected] The increasing size of the worldwide Muslim population and the modernization of Arab countries on the international scene reinforce the rising trend of Islamic Tourism. Indeed, Islamic Tourism has gained much interest in recent years and is considered to be a very promising niche in the near future. This fairly new concept can simply be defined as intra-Muslim and intra-Arab tourism and considering Muslim countries are an emerging tourism market, this is a product with significant economic potential. It is also viewed as tourism that respects Islamic religious principles and is consequently referred to as “Halal Tourism”. -

The Look of Language Bernard O’Kane The status of Arabic as the language in which the Quran, the word of God, was revealed, privileged it in Islamic lands. Even in non-Arabic speaking areas it remained for many centuries the only language that appeared on works of art and architecture in the Muslim world, from Andalusia to India. When and how did this begin to change? In parts of the early Islamic Empire Arabic almost completely supplanted local languages such as Aramaic, Egyptian and Berber. The major exception was Iran, where the older language of the Sasanians, Pahlavi or Middle Persian, was replaced by what is called New Persian, a language of which forty percent now consisted of loan words from Arabic, and which was written in the Arabic alphabet.1 Among the first parts of the early Islamic empire to break away were those in eastern Iran, and it was at the courts of these dynasties, such as the Tahirds and Saffarids in the ninth century, that we first hear of court poets who composed in Persian.2 Although another dynasty in North Eastern Iran, the Samanids, ruling from the ninth to the eleventh centuries, were vassals of the Abbasids, they greatly fostered Persian culture, and in fact it is clear from historical reports that at an early stage Persian translations of the Quran were made for the benefit of their subjects who knew no Arabic. The Samanids also commissioned an official commentary on the Quran in Persian,3 and these translations mark an effective break whereby Islam ceased to be a purely Arab religion. -

E-mail: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract— Spiritual tourism is a new discovery area in the field of Religious Tourism, for example Islamic Tourism. The emergence and development of Islamic Tourism has encouraged people to travel to Islamic countries for many reasons, including educational, religion and spirituality purposes. Some people are travelling for spirituality of a place, but some are looking for educational aspects of the place. In Malaysia, Islamic Tourism is drastically developing since the country has the various assets for Islamic destination to exhibit their religion and culture like mosque, university and museums. Being an Islamic country, one of dominant Islamic tourism destinations in Malaysia is the mosque. Mosque is a ‘concrete symbol’ and ‘cultural pride’ of the country as it portrays the Muslim society and nationhood in Malaysia. Besides, since the early days, mosque plays pivotal roles by serving a comprehensive function to the community including educational, cultural and political matters. Unfortunately, in the current scenario, it does not really function as it was before. Therefore, the paper intended to discover issues and potential of mosque as a tourism destination pride in Malaysia through document analysis and interview with the mosque officers. -
Case Studies of Putra Mosque and Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque
THE EFFECTIVENESS OF PASSIVE DESIGN STRATEGIES FOR A MOSQUE IN MALAYSIA: CASE STUDIES OF PUTRA MOSQUE AND TUANKU MIZAN ZAINAL ABIDIN MOSQUE BY TENGKU ANIS QARIHAH BT RAJA ABDUL KADIR A dissertation submitted in fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Science in Building Services Engineering Kulliyyah of Architecture and Environmental Design International Islamic University Malaysia SEPTEMBER 2015 ABSTRACT Malaysia has a tropical climate with warm and humid weather all year round. It is usually very hot and humid, especially in the major cities. Malaysia is the best country to study on the passive design strategies in tropical climates. Since the time of our ancestors, buildings had been built characterized by passive design where it focused on a balance between local climate, surrounding areas, functions, appearances and design of the buildings. Passive design strategies can defined as the measures that had been taken to ensure the comfort of the occupant achieved. It must have a closer relationship with its surroundings to achieve a comfortable internal environment with a minimum of resource used. However, in this modern age, most of the building neglected the beauty of passive design strategies and end up relying on active design strategies such as air conditioning systems and others. This research will discuss the importance of passive design strategies and knowing its effectiveness against the user‟s comfort, energy efficiency and the visual impact on the user‟s point of view. Characteristic of passive design strategies taken from the Malaysian Standard: MS1525. MS1525 is the Code of Practice on Energy Efficiency and use of Renewable Energy for Non-Residential Buildings, which was developed to provide the best practice in energy efficiency for buildings.
