Digital Muslim Review focuses on a landscape view of Islam and Muslim societies in a digital world, paying attention to how its various approaces embody new ways of analysis and critical thinking. The journal discusses ongoing debates in digital Islam within the Muslim world, such as defining the terms of digital Islam, the question of whether digital Islam has (or needs) theoretical grounding, controversies over new models of peer review for digital scholarship, themes related to wider issues in digital projects, and problematic questions surrounding research involving “big data”. A number of the main concerns are to explore a broad spectrum of perspectives on digital Islam; to engage with a variety of digital Islam tools in order to apply the most appropriate technology to facilitate different works in different circumstances; to develop familiarity with a range of digital Islam projects, as well as the ability to evaluate the tools and methods used in those projects; and to become more critical and capable users of digital tools, technologies, and spaces by understanding that all contemporary technologies in the Muslim world are complex, human-driven, and influencing Muslim societies socially, culturally, economically, and politically.

Abstract

This study analyses contestations over women’s body autonomy on social media among four Indonesian Islamic organisations: Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), Muhammadiyah, the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI), and Salafi groups. Using Michel Foucault’s theory of power, data from interviews and documentary studies reveal three key findings. First, conceptions of women’s body autonomy vary considerably—from traditionalist to neo-modernist within NU, classical revivalist to reformist in Muhammadiyah, monolithic among Salafi groups, and contextual in MUI. Second, interpretations of QS. An-Nur: 31 regarding aurat constitute the primary point of divergence. Third, a notable shift in gender identity emerges, particularly among Neo-Modernist NU and Reformist Muhammadiyah, who actively challenge traditional stigmas. This study illuminates how religious ideology mediates global media influences on local gender politics in Indonesia.

Abstract

The Jamā'ah Tablīgh, a transnational movement built on physical missionary work, increasingly navigates digital spaces in ways that challenge its traditional ethos. This article compares how the movement engages social media in Nigeria and Indonesia through a systematic review of ethnographic studies and media reports. Findings reveal significant divergence: Nigerian Tablīghīs employ closed platforms like WhatsApp and memory cards for internal coordination, prioritizing audio to minimize visual distraction and maintain the movement's oral tradition. Indonesian Tablīghīs cultivate public presences on Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube for transnational coordination, community documentation, and strategic rebranding against negative stereotypes. Despite these differences, both communities share fundamental orientations—treating digital tools as instruments for da'wah rather than alternatives to embodied practice, maintaining wariness of fitna, and prioritizing internal community building. The article argues these patterns represent local adaptations of a shared transnational ethos, revealing digital engagement as active appropriation rather than passive adoption. The study contributes to digital religion scholarship by complicating secularization narratives and showing how conservative movements creatively integrate technology to preserve—rather than abandon—traditional commitments to khurūj (missionary journeys) and face-to-face preaching.

Abstract

This study investigates the growing popularity of Ngaji Filsafat, a phenomenon cultivating a reflective Islam that offers an alternative study group for young Muslims in Yogyakarta and beyond. This mosque-based gathering eschews conventional texts like the Qur’an, instead exploring ideas from thinkers both Muslim and non-Muslim, from Greek philosophers to contemporary intellectuals. Its rise presents an anomaly within the conservative-turn thesis, given its broad appeal and promotion of pluralist teachings. Drawing on observations and in-depth interviews with initiators and attendees, the study finds its appeal lies not in aspirations for heightened piety or religious activism. Rather, for urban Muslim youth, it functions as a space offering interpretive resources for navigating everyday challenges within a neoliberal context. These findings highlight the need for alternative frameworks, beyond piety-centered or conservative-pluralist paradigms, to understand diverse Islamic expressions in digitalizing post–New Order Indonesia. Furthermore, against scholarship emphasizing the state’s coercive role in civic pluralism, this study illuminates how non-state actors mainstream pluralist Islamic engagements.

Abstract

This article examines the relationship between Islamic theological conceptions of cosmic order and contemporary discussions of algorithmic structure in computational science. The study focuses on proposing a conceptual and interpretive framework for understanding recurring patterns in nature—such as mathematical regularities, systemic interdependence, and structural coherence—through the lens of Islamic cosmology. This approach moves beyond a simple empirical demonstration of divine design. By synthesizing scientific literature on pattern formation with Islamic intellectual traditions, this paper argues that computational models can serve as heuristic tools for interpreting natural order within a theistic worldview. Consequently, the claims are situated within a theological–philosophical discourse that reflects on how structured regularities may be meaningfully interpreted as signs (āyāt) of divine wisdom, rather than being framed as empirical proof of divine agency. In doing so, the study contributes to interdisciplinary conversations on religion, science, and digital epistemology, offering a nuanced account of how faith-based cosmology can critically engage contemporary computational paradigms.

Abstract

This article presents preliminary findings from the Digital Islam Across Europe (DigitIs- lam) project, examining how Muslim organisations and actors utilise websites and social media across five European countries. Combining macro-level web archival analysis of approximately 1,000 websites with micro-level qualitative interviews and a quantitative survey of UK Muslim producers and users, the research investigates the distinct functions of digital platforms. At the European level, findings reveal that websites primarily serve formal, archival communication, while social media functions as the dominant tool for engagement and mobilisation, with notable national variations. In the UK, qualitative interviews demonstrate producers’ strategic adaptation to platform-specific affordances, balancing curated websites with rapid social media interactions. Survey data indicates high daily social media consumption alongside continued trust in traditional offline authorities and structured online resources for authoritative religious knowledge. The study identi- fies a disconnect between institutional strategies and everyday user practices, contributing nuanced understanding of shifting religious authority in Online Islamic Environments.
