Abstract

This research explores the analysis method of the current situation and injects direct design proposal analysis to the mosque from the existing condition. The exploration of lighting fundamentally and significantly impacts holistic and ritual performance in any religious building. However, regarding the conversion of typology to the mosque, there were a few research that focus on the existing condition in lighting design performance for Newcastle Mosque. Therefore, this study explores approximately four designs of three-dimensional recommendations as a methodology which include passive and active design implications used recorded as part of the discussion. The result shows that the proposed design helped in repairing the conditions of the mosque through the implementation of the skylight, curtain, designated window, and sunbreak for the best rectification recommendation. Furthermore, the result of the study suggests such minimum glare and effective lighting distribution contribute to the amount reduction of energy consumption, improve the quality of reading, and properly enlighten the religious congregational activities and other exercises carried out to optimum brightness of the mosque.

Abstract

Uncontrolled tourism development makes an area develops unevenly and causes changes of function that can harm the surrounding community. Thus, integration in an area is needed to form urban area plans. The development of tourist areas cannot be separated from the change of function that leads to the changes in areas that develop unevenly. For example, a change of lifestyle makes people initially gathered in open spaces move to areas with certain interests. So, the integration between spaces is an important concern in the scope of region development. These corridors can become open spaces that improve the quality of tourist areas. This research aims at identifying the potential development of the religious tourism area of Gus Dur Cemetery in Jombang City with a regionalism approach. It includes activities, facilities, and several symbols that increase the value of the place. The research method employed logical argumentation on which the research relies on argument as a reference in aspects and results of research. The data collection techniques are interviews, observations, cognitive mapping, and literature studies. This study shows some activities that need to be developed; providing an open space to support the community activities, providing facilities that make the value of a tourist area can increase economically, developing new symbols, developing religious tourism areas, and arranging landscapes.

Abstract

Many Islamic heritages are not well maintained. This condition also occurs in the Ki Ageng Majasto cemetery, an Islamic heritage site near Surakarta City, Central Java. The function of the area has changed, from the education area in the early time into the Worship Tomb in the present. Therefore, it is important to investigate to find out: (1) Why there was a shift in the function of the area (from an educational area to a worship tomb); (2) what factors influenced it; and (3) What the impact on the regional constellation is. The systematic steps of the grounded research approach are used in this research. After the analysis carried out, it was discovered that the shifting function from the Education area to the Worship Tomb in Majasto Village occurred: (1) when KAM, which functions as the Islamic guardian, has died; (2)  The influence of political factors are dominated in the past (The Pajang I King) although the present governments are Sukoharjo Regency and Majasto Village Government; (3)  The changing of function has its implications for the development of the functions of area and agglomerations as well as regional constellations. This finding provides direction on the importance of documenting historical information in determining regional/urban planning policies.

Abstract

This study aims to elaborate on the rise of The At-Taqwa Grand Mosque as the Jami' mosque and the long-standing great mosque of Sang Cipta Rasa in Cirebon, West Java, in 1963. The emergence of the At-Taqwa not only drove the rise of new Jami mosques in the Cirebon in the following years but also brought about the contestation of religious authority since mosques function as a source of religious authority in Islam. The study rests on the history of the Great Mosque of Sang Cipta Rasa as the first Jami Mosque in Cirebon, the emergence of the At-Taqwa as the Grand Mosque, and the implications of the two Jami mosques in the context of contesting the authority of religiosity in the Muslim community in Cirebon. The method used in this study is based on a historical analysis approach. The study shows that the Sang Cipta Rasa enjoyed as the source of religious authority in Cirebon and neighborhood areas for an extended period. However, the rise of the Grand Mosque of At-Taqwa also diminished the stature of the Sang Cipta Rasa mosque as the sole source of religious authority. On the other hand, it further strengthened the spreading of their authority in Cirebon based on mosques.

Abstract

The ancient city, Kudus, Central Java, has unique sites, including ancient ornaments and walls inside Langgar Dalem Mosque. The study aims to reveal that the value of tolerance needs to be cared by every generation of Muslims in Kudus. The data were collected by interview, observation, and literature review. The study used a descriptive qualitative method to analyze the data. The study showed that Langgar Dalem Mosque is a historical-cultural heritage inherited by pre-Islamic Hindus and preserved authenticity by Muslims in Kudus, as a form of the love of cultural works. There are patterns of Javanese, Hindu, and Islamic cultures that decorate the mosque's walls. However, Department of Culture and Tourism of Kudus Regency has not optimally cared for it. So, the initiative of the Mosque management board is the ancient ornaments were painted for their dull color. This could reduce their original aesthetic value and change the cultural heritage values. The ancient wall in Langgar Dalem Mosque with the meaning of cultural tolerance until now has preserved by Sunan Kudus and Moslem generation.

Abstract

Third Places refers to managed gathering spaces outside the home and work where people can engage in social interaction voluntarily. These places are known to decrease stress and build a sense of community. However, third places are currently developed in a western cultural context. This paper investigates the role of third places in the context of eastern culture, specifically with Islamic values. Using a qualitative approach, the data was gathered using semi-structured interviews with young Muslim visitors of a coffeehouse in Bandung City. The results illustrate that the coffeehouse is considered a third place. Not only because of its availability for conversation and laughter but also its architectural features that support Islamic practices like praying and maintaining certain proximity with the opposite gender. This study concluded that the cultural framework in which a third place is created is critical.

Abstract

Humanity's activities cause the destruction that occurs in the world as a caliphate, as stated in Surah Ar-Rum (30), verse 41 of the Quran. One of the products that might harm the ecosystem is waste. Various countries, including the Indonesian Government, have competed with numerous initiatives and policies to save environmental sustainability. The author of this study provided training on how to conserve the environment by processing trash, particularly fabric waste. Bina Nusantara University's community development initiative invites numerous assisted MSMEs to participate in a waste management training session. Participants are instructed on how to transform fabric waste into useful interior products. The techniques conducted start from joining fabric waste with patchwork, quilting, and applique connection techniques. From the connection results, the product's value can be increased again by adding a digital screen printing technique. Islamic Art is one of the many motifs that can be used. Implementing Islamic geometric patterns and floral, vegetal, and calligraphy designs on interior accessories are some examples of Islamic art motifs. Apart from being able to decorate the interior of the home, particularly by giving it an Islamic feel, the objective of creating this product is to conserve the environment through upcycling technology.

Abstract

Malaysia is the world's 43rd most populous country comprising multi-ethnic and multicultural societies. About half the population is ethnically Malay, with minorities of Chinese, Indians, and indigenous peoples. From this number, Chinese Muslims are minorities in Malaysia, and only 2 per cent of ethnic Chinese are Muslims. Nevertheless, there is a growing trend of accommodating Chinese cultural elements in Islamic preaching in Malaysia. Due to this recent emergence of Chinese Muslim cultural identities, Chinese cultural symbols and Islamic messages are combined to produce a new notion in Malaysian society that 'Chineseness' and Islam are compatible. For that reason, the Chinese Muslim association and dakwah movement in Malaysia, like MACMA (Malaysia Chinese Muslim Association), promulgate a cultural dakwah approach aiming to universalize Islam to spread the Islamic messages and invite non-Muslims to get closer to the Islamic faith. One of the approaches is building Chinese-style mosques throughout Malaysia as a symbol of preaching Islam through Chinese cultural signs and practices. However, no comprehensive studies have elucidated how mosques patronized by the MACMA universalize Islam for Muslims and non-Muslims. Therefore, this paper aims to identify and analyze how MACMA Islamic ideology influences the architectural design elements found in the MACMA mosques as a symbol of cultural dakwah to propagate and teach the values of Islam. This study used the hermeneutic method through the interpretivism paradigm. The two indicators of mosques, form-making, and spatial elements, act as a sign of Islamic values to propagate religious tolerance. The findings indicate how Islamic values and ideology involving the practising of Islah, Ikram, and Ihsan are translated into Mosque architectural elements as a symbol of dakwah to display communal-friendly mosque design. Based on these findings, this study will outline the best mosque design guidelines for designers that can function as a religious sign and symbol for transnational dimensions of cultural dakwah towards unity, equality, and spiritual rejuvenation.
