Publication Enhancing Social Integration and Spiritual Wellness Through Islamic Courtyard Garden (ICG)(Penerbit USIM, 2024) ;Madihah Mat Idris ;Nurul Mawaddah Mohd Faizul ;Elina Mohd HusiniNor Syahila Ab RashidThis study investigates the potential of Islamic Courtyard Gardens (ICGs) to enhance social interaction and spiritual wellness within modern campus environments. While Islamic gardens have historically symbolized paradise and served as spaces for reflection and community, their role in contemporary architectural and urban planning, particularly within educational institutions, remains underutilised. This research addresses the gap by exploring how well-designed ICGs can foster social integration and spiritual wellness. The study focuses on case studies of two Islamic courtyards at the Tuanku Muhriz Islamic Center (TMIC) at Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM) and Masjid Al-Azhar at Universiti Islam Selangor (UIS). The research methods include site observation and questionnaires survey. The key finding suggests that while the Al-Azhar Mosque courtyard garden better meets users' needs than TMIC, enhancing TMIC with seating, lighting, water features, and diverse vegetation could improve its appeal. While opinions on spiritual wellness are varied, there is strong agreement on the positive impact these spaces have in nurturing it. The study offers architectural and landscape insights to optimise ICGs in educational settings, advocating for their wider use to enhance social cohesion and well-being in academic communities. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

As everyone is aware, PPR homes were able to meet the basic requirement in terms of housing and meet the basic need of occupants as a shelter. However, several major problems continue to exist, keeping the spatial quality in most PPR homes less than ideal. Therefore, this study examines which IBP components are most effective in enhancing spatial quality in PPR homes. The IBP elements act as a benchmark indicating Islam as a way of life. The major goal of this study is to determine which of the Islamic building principles (IBP) are important to a vertical housing development in Malaysia and to evaluate the extent to which these principles or Islamic guidelines have been incorporated to the existing vertical housing in Malaysia. Throughout the research, a literature review and systematic visual observation approach were used to achieve both research objectives.

Publication Kesesuaian Amalan Penyesuaigunaan Bangunan Kediaman Bersejarah kepada Memorial Kebangsaan(Universiti Malaya, 2014) ;Nor Syahila Ab RashidNila Inangda Manyam Keumala H. DaudDalam kerancakan usaha memanjangkan hayat bangunan-bangunan lama di negara ini melalui amalan konservasi bangunan, terdapat kecenderungan oleh pihak kerajaan untuk mengambilalih bangunan kediaman tokoh-tokoh Malaysia dalam sejarah kepimpinan bagi disuaiguna menjadi memorial. Namun, ia menimbulkan persoalan adakah wujud sebarang garis panduan penyesuaigunaan bangunan kediaman bersejarah kepada memorial kebangsaan di Malaysia dalam mengekalkan bangunan kediaman tokoh-tokoh Malaysia sebagai ruang pameran berkaitan sejarah kepimpinan mereka. Ketiadaan garis panduan berkenaan pula menimbulkan pertikaian bagaimana untuk melaksanakan proses tersebut dengan sewajarnya. Objektif penyelidikan ini adalah untuk mencari formula terbaik bagi menyesuaiguna bangunan kediaman bersejarah kepada memorial kebangsaan berdasarkan isu tersebut dengan menilai semula amalan penyesuaigunaan bangunan kediaman bersejarah kepada memorial kebangsaan yang telah dilaksanakan di Malaysia dan mengenalpasti prinsip-prinsip amalan penyesuaigunaan bangunan kediaman bersejarah kepada memorial kebangsaan di Malaysia. Kajian kes telah dijalankan ke atas tiga sampel bangunan kediaman bersejarah yang telah disuaiguna kepada memorial kebangsaan dan dipilih berdasarkan senarai populasi kajian iaitu Rumah Kelahiran Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad, Rumah Merdeka serta Memorial Tun Abdul Ghafar Baba. Sampel berkenaan ditentukan melalui kaedah pensampelan dan dinilai menggunakan senarai semak yang telah disediakan. Berdasarkan hasil kajian kes yang telah dianalisis dan dibincangkan, disimpulkan bahawa aspek kehendak undang-undang bangunan (tempatan) serta kehendak persekitaran dan konservasi tidak dipenuhi dalam melaksanakan proses penyesuaigunaan bangunan kediaman bersejarah kepada memorial kebangsaan yang memerlukan cadangan penambahbaikan. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Pengintegrasian Prinsip-Prinsip Naqli dalam Reka Bentuk dan Pemuliharaan Bangunan Warisan di Negeri Sembilan(Penerbit USIM, 2024)Nor Syahila Ab RashidBangunan warisan di Malaysia memainkan peranan penting dalam mencerminkan warisan budaya, sejarah, dan agama negara. Walaupun potensi prinsip Naqli—yang berasaskan ajaran Islam—untuk mengekalkan integriti spiritual dan budaya bangunan ini, penerapannya dalam pemuliharaan seni bina bangunan warisan masih tidak konsisten. Kajian ini menyelidiki penerapan prinsip Naqli, khususnya Rububiyyah (hubungan manusia dengan Tuhan), Ubudiyyah (hubungan manusia dengan sesama manusia), dan Mulkiyyah (hubungan manusia dengan alam sekitar), dalam pemuliharaan lima bangunan warisan terpilih di Seremban, Negeri Sembilan. Melalui pendekatan kualitatif yang melibatkan lawatan tapak, analisis seni bina, dan wawancara dengan pakar, kajian ini mengenalpasti tahap integrasi prinsip-prinsip ini yang berbeza-beza antara bangunan, sekali gus menonjolkan cabaran dan peluang dalam menyelaraskan amalan pemuliharaan moden dengan nilai-nilai Islam. Penemuan menunjukkan bahawa walaupun bangunan tradisional lebih selaras dengan prinsip Naqli, terdapat keperluan mendesak untuk pendekatan yang lebih terarah dan inovatif, terutama dalam aspek kemampanan dan penglibatan komuniti, untuk memastikan kelestarian dan relevansi bangunan warisan ini pada masa hadapan.
