<![CDATA[The development of digital technology has significantly transformed the dissemination of knowledge in society. Besides providing easier access to information, this condition has also given rise to the phenomenon of the death of expertise, namely the weakening of scientific authority due to the dominance of popularity and the rapid flow of digital information. This phenomenon causes people to rely on viral figures as sources of knowledge without considering their validity and scientific competence. This study aims to examine the phenomenon of the death of expertise and formulate efforts to reconstruct scientific authority based on Qur’anic values. This research employs a qualitative method with a library research approach using thematic interpretation (maudhu’i).
