A close examination of the Mughal sources, however, reveals a more complex picture. I suggest that, contrary to other Mughal funerary gardens, which were built by a single patron, the Bagh-i Babur was a dynastic project of several succeeding generations of Mughal emperors. It was incepted by Babur; preserved by his sons Mirza Kamran and Humayun, and his grandson Mirza Hakim, as an honoured burial site of the early Mughals; enclosed and transformed, as I suggest, into a grand terraced construction by Emperor Akbar; highlighted by Emperor Jahangir with dynastic inscriptions; and thoroughly renovated and enriched with buildings by Emperor Shah Jahan. After the Mughal era, the garden became a place of recreation for the people of Kabul, and at the end of the nineteenth century it was rehabilitated and appropriated as a residential pleasance by the Afghan kings, who shaped their reigns and concepts of kingship on Mughal models. After periods of unrest and destruction, the garden was reconstructed in the early twenty-first century and became a public park for the people of Kabul.","PeriodicalId":41944,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Islamic Architecture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46919856","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Within less than a decade, Tebuireng has run into significant development to accommodate massive number of people visiting the area. We conduct numerous field observation, mappings and in-depth interview with related actors in the area. Content analysis method is carried out to figure out the objective of this research. The study found that faith, known as ‘Ngalap Barokah’ is the main basis for the process of city formation and determines how the urban actors utilize the urban space. Considering the huge numbers of Islam believers in Indonesia, it is important to understand the aspects of faith that affect the urban growth, especially in the cities dominated by Moslem population. Finally, the finding of this faith based morphological research is potentially contributed for the practice of Indonesian urban planning, especially for anticipating the city growth dominated by Moslem stake holders.","PeriodicalId":41944,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Islamic Architecture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75527429","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to improve the accessibility of mosque facili-ties and provide proposals for designing facilities that are accessible for mosque worshipers, including those with disabilities. The object of this re-search consists of several great mosques located in Boyolali, Surakarta, and Karanganyar. The accessible congregation is used to conduct access audits using a questionnaire to assess the level of accessibility as well as to deter-mine the priority of the selected mosque, and then design the mosque facili-ties using AutoCAD software concerning the Regulation of the Minister of Public Works and Public Housing No. 14 of 2017. The results of the congregation show that 4 mosques are not accessible and 1 mosque is less accessible. Based on the analysis, it shows that the Madaniyah Great Mosque located in Karanganyar was chosen to be the object of the proposed improve-ment because it has the highest accessibility index value and the current condition of the mosque is the most likely to be repaired, so that mosque facilities are accessible for people with disabilities. The proposal to improve facilities at the Great Madaniyah mosque is to provide a unique parking lot with a size of 5 m x 2.3 m, provide an incline with a slope of 5° and have handrails on both sides, provide two types of ablution places, namely with a seat and no seat, provide toilets equipped with kick plates, automatic hinges, panic buttons, and handrails; provide lifts with handles on all sides and a lift size of 120 cm x 230 cm; provide signs or signs in unique parking lots; add signposts; provide a particular prayer area and a special lane located close to the entrance to the prayer area.","PeriodicalId":41944,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Islamic Architecture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89613905","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

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.

One of the most important research problems was the lack of sufficient information about the Dezzak Mosque. Considering that some of the Islamic geographers had sporadically mentioned an old mosque in the southeast of Iran, comprehensive field research was not done in this regard. This study compares Dezzak Mosque the oldest mosque in South East of Iran with the Prophet Mohmmad Mosque in Medina and other mosques of Early Islam in Iran such as Fahraj Tarikhane Damghan mosques in Iran from the perspective of style and architectural features. With the arrival of the Muslim Arabs to Iran and acceptance of the new religion, Islam, Iranian Muslims were engaged in the construction of mosques in this country. The Dezzak Mosque was one of them. The mosque has a square plan with a corridor, which is surrounded by circular columns and arches around the courtyard with clay raw. The columns have a diameter of 1.5 meters around the courtyard, which is most on the South Side. Raw bricks for the construction of the building and palm trees are used to cover the roof. Recent studies show that the Dezzak Mosque in terms of stylistic influences of the Khorasani style is the first Islamic-Iranian style. Dezzak Mosque is similar to the Prophet Mosque in Medina in case of plan, materials, and architectural features, and also it has been influenced by Tarikhane Damghan and Fahraj as the oldest mosques In Iranian Plateau.","PeriodicalId":41944,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Islamic Architecture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80057868","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

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.","PeriodicalId":41944,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Islamic Architecture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83097070","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
