    As a result of the hot and dry weather caused by the El Nino phenomenon or the overheating weather that struck our country, water supply dams and rivers supplying raw water resources for water treatment plants in all state were declined (Termizi, 2017). Among the causes of clean water shortage is the pollution due to the poor waste management without systematic method, causing pollution and contamination to the water sources. In the meantime, many countries have also presented some issues with less favourable facilities, especially the problem cause by the lack of clean water at the coastal area (Hirschman, 1975). Thus, portable seawater desalination was developed using condensation concept and distillation methods to produce clean water sources for coastal visitors as well as the use of local residents as an alternative to the dry season

    Coconut has existed for at least thousands of years. Its flesh, its husk, its shell and its milk can be used for different purposes. Most importantly, coconut oil has been applied in numerous applications such as cosmetics, cooking ingredient and medicine. Coconut has been widely used in Southern and Central American regions, Asia, and Pacific regions. Its natural habitat is mostly on the tropical regions or along the beach shore. The ideal conditions for it to grow are with high humidity coupled with rainy and sunny weather. Countries such as Malaysia, Brunei, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Philippines and Papua New Guinea are very significant with coconut cultivation. Coconut is very influential to the life of tropical people because they can derive the benefits in their daily use. Nowadays, the trend of using natural skincare is on the rise, according to the 12-months Google trend

    Ablution is an essential practice as a Muslim because it is an abligatory required to perform prayer. A Muslim use approximately 5 litres of water per single ablution. Approximately, a Muslim use 25 litres of treated water to perform ablution. Islam categorized the used water produced from an ablution as Musta’mal water. Normally Musta'mal water will be left to flow into the drainage system. The accumulated amount of wasted water is significant when it is measured at a mosque or surau. The quality of Musta'mal water is far better than the typical quality of the waste water produced from washing activities because there were no oil, grease, soap and dirt except for small quantities of miccroorganisms. To overcome this problem, this study focused on the discussion of reusing ablution water based on Shari'ah law which led to the development of a system (or model) to reuse ablution water. This ablution water reuse system consists of several parts including ablution water collection tanks, filters, storage tanks, filling tank, water pump and water sensor. This system runs automatically using a water pump and water sensor. The study found that the Shari'ah law allow reuse water to be used again as ablution water. Based on this study, it is found that the ablution water reused system is feasible and is able to be produced from the engineering aspect
