Analysis of calligraphy woodcarving ornamentations used in Sultan Alauddin Mosque, Jugra, Klang. In: 2nd International Conference On Innovation And Technology For Sustainable Built Environment, 27 May 2014, Impiana Hotel, Ipoh. (Unpublished) (2014)
Abstract
Although several studies have been performed on floral and geometry woodcarving in Malaysia, far too little attention has been paid to calligraphy ornamentations. Further knowledge on calligraphy ornamentation in mosques is needed due to the variation of their writing styles (Jawi, Thuluth and Kūfi). This paper presents a discussion on calligraphy woodcarving decoration in terms of contents and writing styles. The Sultan Alauddin Mosque's ornamentations in Jugra, Klang were analysed descriptively as the case study. The results showed that out of ten different sentences used in the interior decoration, three sentences indicated Prophet Muhammad's statements (Hadith) and seven sentences showed Quranic verses.
