Abstract: Islamic websites are growing in number. Numerous users are interacting with them on a daily basis. Little has been done in evaluating these websites in terms of using multimedia elements. This paper aims at analysing and critically assessing to what degree university level Muslim users are satisfied with selected Islamic websites in terms of using multimedia elements. The analysis is carried out based on a questionnaire that was distributed among students from three different IIUM faculties. It is hoped that the outcome of this study will benefit these Islamic websites.

Keywords: multimedia elements; Islamic websites; website development; web design; Islam; website evaluation; university students; Muslims.
