Abstract

This study examines how YouTube audiences interpret eschatological Islamic da‘wah messages delivered by Ustadz Zulkifli Muhammad Ali within the digital public sphere. Employing a qualitative reception analysis, the research draws on Stuart Hall’s encoding/decoding framework to categorize audience interpretations into preferred, negotiated, and oppositional readings. The data were collected from user comments posted on the YouTube video “The End of the Age is Very Near” and systematically analyzed using NVivo 12 Plus. The findings reveal that negotiated and oppositional readings are more prominent than preferred readings, indicating a critical and reflexive mode of audience engagement. Many responses articulate skepticism, satire, and selective acceptance of the eschatological message, as viewers attempt to contextualize the da‘wah within broader social realities, religious knowledge, and contemporary concerns. These patterns suggest that digital da‘wah audiences do not merely consume religious messages but actively interpret, contest, and reframe them. This study contributes to the growing scholarship on digital da‘wah and religion online by demonstrating that religious meaning on social media is produced through dialogic and contested processes, where religious authority and interpretation are continuously negotiated in platform-mediated environments.

Abstract

This article discusses the idea of integration and interconnection of Islamic sciences as a response to the dichotomy between religious science and general science among Muslims. Using a normative and historical approach, this research analyzes the relationship between Islamic values and the development of modern science. Integration efforts involve curriculum reconstruction, development of learning models, as well as collaboration between religious scientists and scientific scientists. This article also examines various integration models, such as Syed Naquib al-Attas's concept of the “Islamization of Knowledge” and the paradigm of “Revelation Guiding Knowledge.” The results show that the integration of Islamic sciences has the potential to create a holistic understanding that answers the challenges of the times, strengthens Islamic identity, and provides solutions to contemporary problems. This research recommends a multidimensional approach to build synergy between Islamic values and modern science for the progress of the people.
