This qualitative study accomplished the content analysis from Kitab al-I’lan Bi Ahkam Al-Bunyan. The findings indicated that several essences derived from the Kitab related the roles of civil society towards the sustainable built environment in the future.

Lawyers have always been vulnerable to be misused by money launderers as one of the potential vehicles for such criminals to conduct their illegal activities. Given such issues, the Anti-Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Law in Malaysia imposes an obligation on lawyers to report any suspicious transactions to the regulator. Adopting a content analysis method, this paper examines such obligation and the impediments to such reporting. Lawyers’ reluctance to comply with their reporting duties could be attributed to the culture of confidentiality and the fear of erosion of the client-lawyer privilege.

The medieval Islamic cities were described to be systematically managed by the institution of hisba, henceforward, inspiring modern Muslims to revive the Islamic paradigm of urban management. Nevertheless, not much is being discussed on the role of muhtasib as an urban regulator. Furthermore, it has been wrongly understood only as a market inspector. Thus, employing the content analysis approach, this article examines the roles of muhtasib in urban management, based on selected manuals of muhtasib, written during the medieval times. Interestingly, the findings indicate a series of Islamic principles on urban management that match modern urban management, albeit the difference of time.

The study aims to examine current project issues and the level of controllability in Malaysian landscape architecture projects. The data collection fieldwork was conducted via a semi-structured interview with twenty-four landscape architect professionals based in Klang Valley region. Content and thematic analysis were used to analyse the collected data. Found that project issues are controllable if the project is capable of anticipating and treating them in advance. Nonetheless, issues continue to occur as a result of insufficient action taken in response to predicted issues affecting project outcomes. Study recommends developing a process for systematically forecasting, evaluating, and treating future issues.
