The house is not only a building construction or
building art as a form of human civilization [1].
Building
(‘umran) in Ibn Khaldun’s term as the mother of
industry and civilization that accompanies primary
civilizations such as agriculture, weaving, trade and
civilizations with superior prestige such as writing,
paper production, singing, medicine and so on [2].
The
house is also not only a place to live for humans but
also a place of shelter and gathering with family. A
home is a place where a family spends time together
and builds a home in it [3]. Every human being certainly
wants to have a house that can be lived comfortably
[4]. Nowadays, it is not uncommon for us to see
humans building houses with such grandeur and luxury
to show their status and wealth [5]. A Muslim’s house
cannot be distinguished from a non-Muslim house or
the house of other people because basically the shape
of the house or the characteristics of the house cannot
indicate who the occupants in it are, whether Muslim
or not [6],
although some forms of buildings indicate
the occupants, for example, a house that looks like a
church or a temple of course. It is just not a Muslim’s
house. What distinguishes a Muslim’s house from a
non-Muslim’s house is the condition inside the house
itself, where the values of religious teachings are
applied. However, Islam also provides instructions and
guidance on how a Muslim should build his house tobecome an ideal house to live in
