Description
Summary:The outcome of five seasons of a TV programme known as Akademi Al-Quran (al-Quran Academy) has created an awareness on the existence of the Science of Qirā‟āt among the Malaysian Muslim public. This programme has triggered the public‟s curiosity to know and learn the uniqueness of this knowledge. Living in an era of communication technology, the Internet has been the most preferred medium for instant information. There is an ample amount of websites that offer information on the Science of Qirā‟āt in different languages including English, Arabic and Malay. However, this information might make it difficult for beginners to identify relevant and reliable sources on this knowledge. For this reason, this research attempts to introduce the true meaning of the Science of Qirā‟āt suitable for the Malaysian public and analyse the influence of the Information and Communication Technology as a subject of analysis by reviewing books, articles and online and printed journals that discuss the Science of Qirā‟āt. This study has selected eight websites for analysis based on aspects of objectivity, legitimacy, authority, credibility, relevance and reliability. The analysis and evaluation of these six aspects on the content provided on these selected websites will be based on the materials available, since the information was provided up to June 2014. Furthermore, the analysis will also be applied on the interface design of the website and evaluate the implementation of the multimedia aspect, the arrangement of words, graphics, audio and others. The results of the analysis will conclude on the analytical evaluation of the content and interface design in order to suggest recommendations for improvement in the future. As a result, a majority of the informative websites were developed by established and well-known individuals with acclaimed qualifications and the content provided by authorised and credibility people. They are also considered reliable and relevant to be considered as references for beginners in Malaysia.
