Abstract

This study embarks on an analytical journey through the theological perspectives of Nikos Kazantzakis, underpinned by the concept of God's mutability and its roots in ancient and Byzantine Greek theology. Focusing on Kazantzakis's pivotal works such as "The Last Temptation of Christ" and "Report to Greco," the research employs a literary and historical approach to unravel the synthesis of Christian Orthodoxy, neo-Platonic philosophy, and modern evolutionary thought. The influence of Alfred North Whitehead's process theology and Henri Bergson's evolutionary vitalism on Kazantzakis's conception of a dynamic, evolving God is explored, challenging traditional doctrines of divine immutability. The study also delves into Platonic thought's impact on Kazantzakis, examining the dialectic of being and becoming, and the reinterpretation of classical concepts like stasis and kinesis in a Christian theological context. Additionally, it scrutinizes the compatibility of Kazantzakis’s views with Orthodox Christian theology, particularly in the light of contributions from figures such as Origen and the Cappadocian Fathers. The findings reveal a complex interplay between Greek philosophical heritage and Christian theology in Kazantzakis's work, offering a unique perspective on the nature of God and the compatibility of faith with evolving scientific understanding. This research contributes to the ongoing dialogue between religion and philosophy, highlighting the relevance of ancient wisdom in contemporary theological discourse and underscoring the transformative potential of theological thought in the modern era.

Abstract

Purpose: This study investigates whether reading about Indefinite Life Extension (ILE) can reduce death thought accessibility, particularly among men, as a way to manage death-related concerns. The study aims to explore gender differences in the psychological function of ILE as a terror management strategy. Methodology: An experimental design was used, involving 110 American undergraduate students. Participants were randomly assigned to read about ILE, the afterlife, or a neutral technological advance (teleportation) following a mortality salience prime. The primary outcome measured was death thought accessibility (DTA), with gender as a key variable. Findings: The results revealed that, after being reminded of mortality, reading about the possibility of ILE significantly reduced DTA among men compared to the control condition. However, this effect was not observed among women, who did not show a similar reduction in DTA after reading about ILE. Research Implications: These findings contribute to the growing literature on the terror management function of ILE, highlighting the role of gender in moderating responses to death-related concerns. The study suggests that ILE may serve as an effective strategy for men in managing existential anxiety, whereas women may rely more on traditional beliefs in the afterlife. Originality/Value: This study offers new insights into the gender-specific psychological mechanisms underlying the appeal of life extension technologies, expanding the understanding of how different groups use ILE as a tool for managing death anxiety.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to analyse how Akmal Sjafril constructs religious authority through narrative framing, linguistic strategies, and value integration in his social media engagement. Methodology: This research employed a qualitative approach using virtual ethnography (netnography) to examine Akmal Sjafril’s digital narratives on Twitter. Data were collected through virtual observation, documentation of tweets, and semi-structured interviews, and were analysed using an interactive model of qualitative analysis. Findings: The study reveals that Akmal Sjafril systematically builds religious authority by constructing narratives that defend Islamic teachings against liberal and secular reinterpretations, using adaptive linguistic styles to engage a diverse digital audience, and embedding core Islamic values—such as interfaith tolerance, noble character, and critical thinking rooted in faith—into his digital communication. His approach demonstrates how religious figures can sustain both credibility and audience engagement in a fragmented digital public sphere, blending theological consistency with communicative adaptability. Research Implications: These findings contribute to the broader understanding of religious authority in the digital era by showing how figures can negotiate credibility through adaptive digital strategies without compromising doctrinal authenticity. The research suggests the need for digital literacy initiatives, ethical guidelines for religious communication, and institutional support for promoting comprehensive religious narratives in online spaces. Originality/Value: This study provides a unique contribution by integrating narrative construction, linguistic adaptation, and value-based communication into the analysis of digital religious authority, offering new insights into how Islamic figures navigate legitimacy within the networked dynamics of social media environments.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to examine the influence of religious moderation attitudes on religious tolerance attitudes among Generation Z in Kuningan Regency, particularly in the context of exposure to religious issues circulating on social media. The primary focus is to understand how the value of moderation can moderate the impact of digital religious issues—such as radicalism, moderate clerics, and foreign cultural influences—on the formation of tolerant attitudes, considering that Generation Z is the dominant age group in Indonesia’s population and highly active in the digital sphere. Methodology: This research employs a quantitative approach with a survey design involving 360 respondents from among Generation Z students in Kuningan Regency. Data were collected using a closed-ended Likert-scale questionnaire and analysed using multiple linear regression and moderated regression analysis (MRA) to assess both direct effects and the moderating role of religious moderation attitudes. Instrument validity and reliability were tested using the KMO measure, Bartlett’s Test, and Cronbach’s Alpha. Findings: The findings reveal that out of five examined religious issues, three—foreign culture, moderate clerics, and radicalism—have a direct influence on tolerance attitudes, while the other two do not show significant effects. However, when moderated by religious moderation attitudes, all five issues exhibit significant effects on tolerance attitudes. The most notable result appears in the case of radicalism, where a strong moderate attitude serves as an effective shield against the influence of extremist narratives. These results indicate that religious moderation plays a critical cognitive role in shaping how young people engage with complex religious content online. Research Implications: The study suggests that religious moderation can function as a cognitive filter for Generation Z in navigating digital religious content, highlighting the need to strengthen digital religious literacy based on moderation values through both formal and informal education, and through collaborative efforts among religious institutions, digital media, and youth communities. Originality/Value: This study contributes new insight to the field of digital religiosity by positioning religious moderation as a moderating variable—a perspective that has been largely unexplored in previous research. It enhances understanding of how internal values can function in filtering and responding to religious issues in social media, offering a contextually relevant framework for Indonesia’s socio-religious landscape.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to explore the application of digital philology in Qur’anic manuscript studies, particularly through an analysis of the Corpus Coranicum project as a model for critical engagement with early Qur’anic texts. Methodology: Employing a qualitative approach based on literature review, this research is combined with a case analysis of two core issues: the orthographic variation in early Qur’anic manuscripts and the presence of the ʿUthmānī archetype in written form. Findings: The findings demonstrate that the digital tools within Corpus Coranicum enable more precise and in-depth cross-manuscript textual comparisons. These results reveal orthographic variations based on geographical regions and provide preliminary evidence for the consolidation of the ʿUthmānī text. Research Implications: Implicatively, the study illustrates how digital philology can enrich methodologies in Islamic studies, create opportunities for digital-based academic training, and enhance access to manuscript data. Originality/Value: This research offers an original contribution by emphasizing the importance of integrating digital technologies into Qur’anic studies—particularly in Indonesia, where academic contexts have yet to widely develop this approach.

Abstract

Background: The talaqqī system in Qur’anic education traditionally emphasizes direct interaction between teacher and student to ensure authenticity of recitation and the transmission of spiritual values. However, the advancement of digital technology—particularly the use of artificial intelligence (AI)—has introduced new models in Qur’anic pedagogy. One example is the Qara’a application, which offers a self-directed learning method without the physical presence of a teacher. Purpose: This study aims to analyze the transformation of the talaqqī system into a digital format through the Qara’a application and to evaluate the accuracy of its Qur’anic recitation assessment system. Methodology: This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach with structured digital observation of the Qara’a application. The researcher directly engaged with the app to document its navigation flow, AI features, and learning system. Data were collected through screenshots and field notes, and analyzed thematically through the stages of data reduction, categorization, interpretation, and conclusion drawing. Findings: The results show that in the Qara’a system, the teacher’s role is replaced by a machine that provides sample recitations, which are then imitated by the learner through voice recordings. The learning materials are structured in stages—covering writing, recitation, and a combination of both—and users cannot proceed to the next level without completing the current one. While the app offers flexibility in terms of time and place, its AI-based assessment focuses solely on makhraj (articulation point) per letter and does not account for technical issues (such as voice clarity and network stability) or the psychological state of the learner. Research Implication: These findings reveal a shift in the value system of talaqqī, from one rooted in spiritual relationships to an automated evaluative system, affecting both the meaning of authority and the quality of assessment in Qur’anic learning. Contribution: This study offers a new contribution to the field of digital Qur’anic education by presenting a critical analysis of AI integration in Islamic pedagogy. Its focus on the transformation of talaqqī and the evaluation mechanism of the Qara’a application represents a dimension that has not been widely explored in previous studies.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to map the systematics of writing, modes of presentation, and exegetical topics on NU Online during the 2023–2024 period, while also examining exegetical tendencies in responding to contemporary religious and social issues. The research seeks to understand how digital Qur’anic interpretation reflects the interaction between sacred texts and current social dynamics within Indonesia’s largest Islamic organization. Methodology: The research employs a qualitative method with a content analysis approach applied to 274 exegetical articles published on NU Online. The data were systematically analysed through thematic categorization and coding to identify patterns in writing systematics (mushafī and thematic), exegetical approaches (textual and contextual), and thematic tendencies emerging from the corpus. Findings: The findings highlight two major patterns. First, fiqh-oriented interpretation dominates NU Online’s exegesis, particularly in discussions concerning ritual law (ʿibādah) and social transactions (muʿāmalah). Second, the exegesis tends to engage socio-political issues using an accessible, popular style while promoting values of social empowerment and moderation. Research Implications: The study underscores that digital media functions not merely as a channel for reproducing religious knowledge, but as a dynamic site of dialectic between the Qur’anic message and the needs of the Muslim community. It further highlights the potential of digital platforms as spaces for contextualising Islamic scholarship in public discourse. Originality/Value: This research contributes to the growing field of digital Qur’anic studies by offering a systematic mapping of NU Online’s digital exegesis. It highlights the centrality of fiqh as a dominant interpretive framework in addressing contemporary challenges and demonstrates how traditional Islamic reasoning adapts within the digital sphere.

Abstract

Purpose: This study explores Muslim perceptions and evaluations of virtual Hajj within the metaverse, focusing on its acceptance as a religious practice. Methodology: Utilising a qualitative descriptive approach, data were sourced from online news articles identified using the search term "Metaverse Hajj Discourse" on Google. These articles were analyzed to understand the diverse perspectives within the Muslim community regarding virtual Hajj. Findings: The research reveals that while Muslims acknowledge the educational and preparatory benefits of virtual Hajj, it is largely rejected as a legitimate form of fulfilling the religious obligations of Hajj, due to its failure to encapsulate the physical and spiritual elements of the pilgrimage. Research Implications: This study highlights the need for a nuanced understanding of virtual religious practices, suggesting that while such technologies can augment the educational aspects of religious rituals, they cannot replace the physical acts prescribed by religious doctrines. Originality/Value: The research contributes to the emerging discourse on religious practices within digital spaces, offering insights into the intersection of technology and traditional religious practices, and setting a foundation for future theological discussions on virtual reality's role in religion.

Abstract

Purpose: This study investigates the digital strategies employed by Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) and Muhammadiyah, two of Indonesia's largest moderate Islamic organisations, in countering radicalism on social media. The research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of these strategies in reaching and influencing the younger generation, particularly in the context of growing radical content online. Methodology: A qualitative approach was utilised, involving direct observation of social media content, in-depth interviews with key figures from NU and Muhammadiyah, and a review of relevant literature. The study also included interviews with Generation Z students to gauge their responses to the digital strategies of these organisations. Findings: The study found that NU's innovative approach, particularly through creative social media campaigns like "Merah Putih vs. Radikalisme" on YouTube, has been more effective in capturing broad public attention and reinforcing moderate Islamic narratives. In contrast, Muhammadiyah's more relaxed approach, while meaningful, has not achieved the same level of impact among younger audiences. However, Muhammadiyah's digital applications like SalamMu and Edumu contribute significantly to promoting moderate Islam and countering radical influences. Research Implications: The findings underscore the importance of continuous innovation in digital strategies for religious organisations to maintain relevance and effectiveness in combating radicalism. The study suggests that both NU and Muhammadiyah need to refine their approaches further to better engage with the younger generation, who are more susceptible to radical ideologies online. Originality/Value: This research contributes to the understanding of the intersection between religion and digital technology in a predominantly Muslim society. It provides unique insights into how moderate Islamic organisations can leverage social media to counter radicalism and foster a culture of tolerance and inclusivity in the digital age. The study also highlights the potential and limitations of current strategies, offering a foundation for future research and policy development in digital counter-radicalism efforts.

Abstract

Purpose: This study explores the role of cybertheology in addressing the ethical and societal challenges posed by Artificial Superintelligence (ASI), which has the potential to surpass human cognitive capabilities, heralding a profound cultural and existential crisis. It integrates theological anthropology to assess the implications of a posthuman future. Methodology: Utilising a comprehensive literature review, the research examines technological, philosophical, and theological perspectives through primary and secondary sources, including influential works by futurists and ethicists. The methodology aims to uncover the nuanced discourse surrounding the development of ASI and its potential impacts. Findings: The analysis reveals a narrative marked by speculative optimism and significant existential concerns regarding ASI. A critical gap in the existing ethical discourse is identified, highlighting the necessity for a grounded ethical framework that addresses the profound implications of superintelligent entities on human dignity and societal norms. Research Implications: The findings emphasise the urgent need to incorporate robust ethical considerations into the development and deployment of ASI. Cybertheology is presented as a vital framework for ensuring that ASI technologies align with human values and theological insights, thus providing a valuable lens through which to view the integration of superintelligence into society. Originality/Value: This paper contributes to academic and policy discussions on ASI by promoting cybertheology as a crucial perspective in ethical deliberations. It enriches scholarly dialogues by linking technological advancements with theological and ethical evaluations, proposing that cybertheology can play a pivotal role in shaping policies that govern ASI technologies. This approach ensures that technological progress is compatible with humanistic values, fostering a holistic understanding of ASI's potential impact on humanity.
