Abstract
The traditional practice of Muslim prayer, while profoundly significant, faces challenges in modern times, particularly when travelling or having hectic schedules that prevent the carrying of burdensome prayer attire. This research paper introduces the "EzeFold Hijab," a novel approach developed to tackle these obstacles and enhance the act of praying. This collapsible telekung offers convenience without compromising comfort or functionality through the ingenious construction and use of lightweight, foldable materials. By employing a combination of internet surveys and library research, our methodology revealed a pressing demand within the Muslim community, specifically among women, for a practical prayer apparel that accommodates contemporary requirements. To meet this need, the EzeFold Hijab provides a portable, wrinkle-free solution that is easily transportable in purses or luggage, ensuring unrestricted access to prayer facilities irrespective of location or circumstance. This device promotes religious observance and empowerment among Muslim women through the incorporation of inclusive features and a user friendly design. This empowers individuals to engage in daily prayers with assurance and simplicity. Based on our investigation, it appears that the EzeFold Hijab fulfils a significant market demand by offering a modernised rendition of conventional garments that harmonises effectively with the demands of contemporary, fast-paced lifestyles. In essence, this development represents a significant advancement in the realm of Muslim apparel, facilitating and expanding the accessibility of prayer observances while empowering women to carry out their religious responsibilities with dignity and sophistication.
