In Malaysia, Muslim religious education has developed in two forms, traditional and modern systems. Ulama play a vital role to produce human capital for the nation. Close collaboration between ulama and the ruler (sultan / king) produced an outstanding achievement in making sure traditional religious education is able to be transformed into integrated modern system. This is especially evident in Madrasah Idrisiah since its establishment in the year 1917 with the support by then the ruler, Sultan of Perak.

Under the so called Perak Amanjaya Development Plan, some of the things that we have tried to do are the same things that I believe many others here are concerned about: first, balanced development and economic distribution between the urban and rural areas by focusing on developing small towns; second, poverty eradication regardless of race or religion so that no one remains on the fringes of society or is left behind economically; and, third, youth empowerment. Under the first one, the state identifies viable small- and medium-size companies which can operate from small towns. These companies are to be working closely with the state government to boost the economy of the respective areas. -

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. -

Traditional Mosque in Malaysia
Traditional Mosque in Malaysia Nicklaus Emmanuel George Mohd Shamsul Nizam bin Marzuki Muhammad Fauzee bin Ahmed Zulkifli Siti Nadia binti Mohamad Daud Norafiqah binti Jalal El Din Nabilla Laili binti Ramli INTRODUCTION TRADITIONAL MOSQUE IN MALAYSIA Since the end of the 20th century, many scholars have been intrigued by the significance, aesthetic values and philosophical meanings of the most notable symbol of Islamic architecture, mosques. Although Islam was introduced to Southeast Asia between the 13th, 14th and the 15th centuries and since then numerous mosques were erected throughout the region, but yet the Islamic architecture of this region remains little-known and poorly documented probably because these mosques have followed local building traditions and climatic conditions and do not resemble Islamic architecture of Middle East. Among all the materials and records about mosques architecture and typology, there are few scholars who have mentioned Southeast Asian mosques architecture. Some have acknowledged Southeast Asian mosque as one of the seven regional mosque typology, which represents one of the fascinating architectural styles in mosque design. Masjid Ubudiah, Kuala Kangsar INTRODUCTION . Built in 1913 and completed later in 1917, opened by Sultan Jalil Karamatullah Shah.

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. -

Rise of Eclecticism in the 21St Century Malaysian Mosque Architecture
PLANNING MALAYSIA: Journal of the Malaysian Institute of Planners VOLUME 15 ISSUE 1 (2017), Page 295 - 304 RISE OF ECLECTICISM IN THE 21ST CENTURY MALAYSIAN MOSQUE ARCHITECTURE Amir Hossein Zekrgoo1 1 Kulliyyah of Architecture & Environmental Design INTERNATIONAL ISLAMIC UNIVERSITY MALAYSIA Abstract A stylistic survey of Malaysian mosque architecture shows four distinct trends: 1) Traditional style, which covers most of the mosques that were built before the country’s independence in 1957; 2) Colonial style that was influenced by Indian Mughal architecture, was followed partly after independence, and continued for a while after that; 3) Modern trend began with the National Mosque completed in 1965, and scattered mosques that were built after the National Mosque until the end of the 20th century; and 4) Mosques that were erected in the 21st century, which can be generally explained by the term ‘eclectic’ design. Eclecticism gained rapid momentum in the field of Malaysian mosque architecture since the dawn of the current century. Significant eclectic mosques that have transformed the scene and skylines of major Malaysian cities have often been heavily financed by the government – an indication of conscious choice of direction. This paper aims at providing a categorisation of the process of evolution of contemporary mosque architecture in Malaysia, not based on independent stylistic tendencies, but under three major historical/thematic phases: 1) Independence and Departure from Tradition; 2) Middle Eastern Inspirations; and 3) Rise of eclecticism, with an emphasis on the last phase, i.e. rise of eclecticism in the 21st century. Masjid Wilayah, completed in August 2000, was chosen as a case study because it is the first major eclectic mosque born in the 21st century, incorporating some six established styles, and also the most comprehensive example. -
