These problems are experienced by people with disabilities, especially physically disabled in the "Rumah Kasih Sayang" in Krebet village. People with disabilities by the community are considered as groups who are no longer obliged to worship, they are sufficiently fostered with a variety of skills obtained from the institution, empowered by breeding goats from compensation without even being physically invited to pray together in the mosque or prayer room. Religious inclusiveness needs to be built between the community and the physically disabled, the community must be given an understanding that as long as the disabled person meets the taklif provisions, there is no privilege that disqualifies the obligation of worship for the disabled. The research questions are: 1) What are the implications of the fiqh guidance of worship for the disabled in the "Rumah Kasih Sayang" Krebet Jambon Village? 2) What are the implications of fiqh material for worship for the people of Krebet Jambon Village ?.

Universal Accessible Design in some form is included in the curriculum of all Architecture colleges. This subject is of importance not only from the point of view of compliance, but also for actually providing for the interaction of the Persons with Disabilities with the built environment. A special elective course was framed for architecture students on this subject called ‘Universally Accessible Design’ in an architecture college. The focus of the elective was to create a shift in the minds of the students by emotionally charged pedagogical exercises. The basis of these exercises was the premise that students will make a conscious effort to include Universal Accessibility interventions into the design if they meet and are sensitised towards the experiences of the Persons with disabilities. Along with this, students were made to undergo simulation exercises by themselves using wheelchairs and walking sticks. This was accompanied by case studies and lectures by a disability practitioner. At the end, students were asked to provide a feedback in the form of an anonymous and optional survey. All students agreed to the importance of such special electives for learning Universally Accessible Design. 87.5% stated that the elective has sensitised them towards the people with Disabilities.
