Abstract

This article comprehensively examines the relationship between the Quran, Hadith, and modern technology in the context of the spread of Islamic teachings in cyberspace, highlighting the potential of digital da’wah as well as the accompanying epistemological and ethical challenges. This research is motivated by the fundamental transformation in religious communication patterns resulting from the digital revolution, which has enabled Islamic texts, especially the Quran and Hadith, to be widely disseminated through highly accessible online platforms, but also presents the risk of disinformation and the degradation of scholarly authority. The purpose of this research is to analyze the extent to which digital technology can be optimized in transmitting Islamic values authenticly and authentically and to identify problems that arise in the process of digitizing Islamic teaching sources. The method used is a qualitative study with a content analysis approach to various digital da’wah platforms, Quran and Hadith applications, and scientific literature related to digital religion and Islamic communication studies. The results show that the integration of information technology in the spread of Islamic teachings has great potential to expand the reach of da’wah, increase religious literacy, and strengthen global community connectivity. However, the results also indicate the emergence of serious challenges such as the distortion of the meaning of religious texts due to social media algorithms, the decline of the authority of religious scholars in the digital space, and interpretive bias due to the use of artificial intelligence without scientific validation. Thus, the study’s conclusions emphasize the need for an Islamic digital literacy model based on Islamic epistemological principles and Quranic communication ethics so that technology becomes not only a means of dissemination but also a guardian of the authenticity of God’s message in the digital age.
