Abstract

In the Muslim religion, ablution is a hygienic obligatory act of purifying one’s self before performing worship by washing some parts of the body. In addition, ablution is also to cleanse the spiritual and the physical that can contribute to the devotion factor in worship. The common way used for ablution is by using tap water and the usual spray bottle is used when doing outdoor activities. However, in performing ablution have been found as high waste of water rates when using tap water manually. Thus, the production of a portable water-saving system can help to solve the problem of water wastage. Although Muslims are aware of how to take ablution prior to worship, there is some lack of knowledge and attitude in the amount of water used for ablution. The main problem is wastage of water. In taking ablution, users often forget about the quantity of water that should be used. Based on the previous constructed constraints, the production of this portable semi-auto ablution system is intended to design a normal water tap into a semi-auto pipe that reduces the amount of water usage quantity. The design of this project is to save water by changing the normal water flow to the proper quantity of water for ablution and also controlling the flow of water using sensors. With this system, expected water conserved is 80% higher than the manual water tap. Additionally, the user friendly features where the water can be monitored by using Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) and materials used make to ease users to use them and carry them anywhere. Overall, this project is expected to help the public, especially the Muslim community in the allocation of water while ablution and can educate themselves for a better attitude towards achieving the goal of worship.
