Abstract
Ablution is a washing procedure that involves all Muslims before they get closer to God (Allah). Ablution has become synonymous with water consumption; in order to store and dispense water the Muslims have introduced the station to perform the ablution ritual. The practice of ablution has led to a variety of architectural ablution stations from basic to high technology designs that have been developed. However, based on the previous research, the variation designs of the ablution tap are much more challenging in their design because there are no design guidelines that help designers provide users with safe and comfortable ablution spaces. The ablution tap design will influence waste water consumption in performing the ablution ritual where too much water has been consumed while performing the ablution ritual. As a conclusion, we propose a tool or control system on the ablution tap design as a guideline to the ablution tap and to control water consumption, in order to minimize the usage of water consumption while performing the ablution ritual.
