Abstract

This study examines the transformation of Islamic authority in Indonesia in the digital era through a systematic literature review, with particular focus on the hijrah movement. The research analyzes scholarly articles, books, and academic publications discussing digital Islam, religious authority, and youth religious movements in Indonesia. The review identifies key themes, including the growing influence of the hijrah movement among urban Muslim youth, the role of digital platforms in shaping religious identity, and the shift of authority from traditional institutions such as pesantren and established ulama to social media preachers and influencers. The findings indicate that digital media has restructured religious authority, expanded access to Islamic knowledge, and transformed patterns of religious communication. However, the literature also highlights emerging challenges, including tensions between conventional and digital religious actors, the commercialization of da'wah, and the fragmentation of religious interpretations. Overall, the study concludes that Islamic authority in Indonesia has become increasingly decentralized, dynamic, and contested in the digital age.
