Summary: | Prayer is a must-do for every Muslim, starting from
childhood. There is no denying that there are Muslim families
who value prayer and some who are still lazy or do not perform
prayers. Some issues were raised regarding the problem of not
performing prayers in Muslim families, especially children.
Among them is the need to design a special product as a supporter
for this group to perform prayer without stress. So, this study
explains the development of Islamic-based special product serves
as a catalyst for early systematic training of prayer to Muslim
children aged 7 to 10 years in the state of Terengganu, Malaysia.
Although Terengganu is declared as the first Islamic state in the
country, but to this day unfortunately many of the children of the
age mentioned above have not performed their prayers properly.
This may be due to the factors of laziness to prayer caused by the
influence of entertainment from digital devices, the lack of prayer
guidance from parents and guardians or the absence of special
prayer products in the market. From the point of view of applied
research methods, the special Islamic-based product has been
produced through innovative design concept in which three
essential elements are implanted namely aesthetics, practical and
portable, and cultural and manufacturing acceptability. Further,
the observation and interview techniques are performed when
conducting the pilot tests, henceforth four design processes such
as ideation and development, refinement and detailing, digital
production and model making stages are used to complement the
image of subject matter is well-fitted to the outcome of the study
that offers low production costs, uniqueness looks and
multipurpose applications. Therefore, the results of this study are
in line with religious claims through the Quran and Hadith,
besides helping the children to increase their devotion to God as a
first step towards becoming a virtuous and responsible person. |
