Abstract

The two main religious texts of Islam, Qur’an and hadith, do not provide a clear guidelines concerning the architectural design principles of mosque. Hence architects tends to take the liberty of developing their own subjective interpretation, and in some cases fall into an extreme in term of architectural design articulation, such as heavy use of ornamentation in the exterior as well as the interior parts of the mosque. This research paper examines the effects of ornaments applied in the interior parts of the mosque on the level of concentration of the congregations (jemaah) during the praying times. Qualitative methodological approach is adopted as the research strategy to attain a deeper understanding on the experiential responses of the congregations. The research findings are expected to give substantial contribution to the canon of designing appropriate ornaments for the interior space of mosque in general.
