The Journal of Digital Islamic Thought (JDIT) is a peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to advancing scholarship on Islamic intellectual traditions within digitally mediated contexts. Rooted in the core disciplines of Ushuluddin—Qur’anic studies (tafsir), Hadith studies, Islamic theology (kalām), Islamic philosophy, Sufism, and Islamic political thought—the journal positions digitality as an epistemic domain that reshapes the production, circulation, interpretation, and authority of Islamic knowledge. JDIT’s central contribution lies in the development of Digital Ushuluddin Studies as a distinct analytical field. The journal moves beyond viewing digital media as a neutral tool and instead examines how digitally mediated environments transform religious epistemology, interpretive practices, and discursive authority in contemporary Islam. It aims to produce theoretically grounded, methodologically rigorous, and conceptually innovative research that contributes to global debates in Islamic Studies and digital religion. JDIT publishes original research articles that critically engage with the intersections of Islamic thought and digital transformation, using diverse approaches, including textual and hermeneutical analysis, philosophical inquiry, critical discourse analysis, and digital ethnography. The journal’s scope includes, but is not limited to: Digital Tafsir and Qur’anic Studies Digital Hadith Studies Digital Islamic Theology (Kalām) Digital Islamic Philosophy Digital Sufism Digital Islamic Thought and Reform Digital Islamic Political Thought JDIT prioritizes analytically driven studies that offer conceptual clarity and theoretical advancement, particularly those grounded in contemporary digital contexts and informed by perspectives from the Global South. Purely normative discussions are not considered unless embedded within broader socio-digital analysis. By establishing Digital Ushuluddin Studies as a focused domain, JDIT seeks to provide a specialized and internationally relevant forum for examining the transformation of Islamic thought in the digital age.

Abstract

The digitalization of Islamic proselytization (da’wah) has fundamentally reconfigured religious authority, particularly regarding contemporary discourses on polygamy on social media. This study utilizes Robert Entman’s framing framework to interrogate the conceptualization of polygamy within the digital homiletics of the Instagram account @khalidbasalamahofficial. Findings suggest that the selective appropriation of hadith reifies polygamy as an immutable divine law, effectively marginalizing ethical imperatives such as gender justice, reciprocity, and female well-being. Under this digital framework, polygamy is synthesized as a manifestation of male piety rather than a relational practice grounded in equality and moral accountability. In response, this study leverages the qirā’ah mubādalah (reciprocal reading) approach to propose an alternative hermeneutic that prioritizes justice, mutualism, and public interest (mas}lah}ah) as the teleological cores of Islamic jurisprudence. By synthesizing framing analysis with mubādalah-based interpretation, this research elucidates the ideological underpinnings of digital discourse and emphasizes the urgency of advancing gender-just human-centered interpretations of Islam in the digital sphere. 
Digital Patriarchy and the Silencing of the Female Voice: A Critical Discourse Analysis of Hadith on Instagram Nurul Hafizoh

Abstract

This article interrogates the discursive construction of the female voice as ‘awrah within digital da’wah, specifically analyzing the Instagram account @thesunnah_path. Utilizing Norman Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), synthesized with the Mubādalah (reciprocity) hermeneutic, the study examines how religious authority and patriarchal ideologies are reproduced through social media. The analysis of text, discursive practices, and social structures reveals that theological terms such as fitnah (temptation) and obedience are instrumentalized to legitimize the domestication of women. This phenomenon represents a form of “digital patriarchy” that operates through language and algorithms to silence female agency. Conversely, the Mubādalah approach offers an egalitarian reinterpretation, positing the female voice as a medium for spiritual and intellectual expression rather than a source of moral corruption. Ultimately, this research underscores the urgency of deconstructing hegemonic narratives to restore gender justice and human-centric values to contemporary Islamic digital discourse.

Abstract

Digital transformation has shifted expressions of piety into market-oriented algorithmic logic, giving rise to the commodification of religion. This article analyzes the practice of spiritual monetization on the TikTok account @umizahra.asmara, which offers paid “spiritual services” with the legitimacy of religious symbols. This study uses virtual netnography to trace patterns of interaction, narratives of piety, and digital transaction mechanisms, as well as a normative-theological approach to hadith to assess the religious validity of these practices. The findings show the integration of three dimensions of commodification—material, symbolic, and digital—in which sacred texts and prayer practices are reduced to instruments of economic legitimacy. Analysis of the Quranic verse and Hadith narrated by Abū Dāwud No. 3664 reveals that these practices constitute a form of theological deviation: the exploitation of religious knowledge for worldly gain. This phenomenon marks an ontological shift from preaching as a practice of worship to a symbolic religious economy that has the potential to exploit the audience’s psychological vulnerability. This study emphasizes the urgency of reconstructing the ethics of preaching and strengthening Muslims’ critical literacy in the digital age.
The Digital Battle of God’s Attributes: Ideological Contestation in the Translation of Anthropomorphic Verses on Indonesian Quran Apps Nadya Sa'adatur Rohmah; Wildah Nurul Islami

Abstract

The digitization of the Qur'an is often considered to be the democratization of religious access, but this study argues that mobile applications have instead become an arena for ideological contestation that sharpens theological segregation. This study analyzes the politics of translating anthropomorphic verses in two of the most influential applications in Indonesia: NU Online (representing Traditional Islam) and Quran Tadabbur (representing Salafi Islam). Using Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), this study uncovers how the developers’ ideologies are institutionalized in the text structure and application interface. The findings show a binary polarization: NU Online employs ta’wīl (metaphorical) as a means of resisting literalism, while Quran Tadabbur employs ithbāt (literal) as an instrument of doctrinal purification. Furthermore, this study finds that the technical limitations of the application trigger theological simplification, in which the richness of the interpretive tradition is reduced to a single, instant meaning. As a result, al-Qur’an applications now function as identity anchors that reinforce sectarian divisions. The digital space does not foster convergence of understanding, but rather creates fragmentation of authority, in which each theological group is locked into its own algorithmic truth.

Abstract

Generation Z’s deep immersion in digital culture often engenders existential anxiety and mental health vulnerabilities shaped by performativity and hedonistic self-presentation. This study examines how the YouTube channel @Jedanulis, managed by Habib Husein Ja’far al-Hadar, responds to these dynamics through the audiovisual interpretation of the Qur’an. Employing Teun A. van Dijk’s Critical Discourse Analysis, the article explores how the channel synthesizes Islamic theology with insights from modern psychology to reconstruct the notion of “digital piety.” The findings demonstrate that @Jedanulis functions simultaneously as a diagnostic and prescriptive platform, reframing rigid religious discourse into inclusive narratives that address distinct digital pathologies, including alienation and the pursuit of symbolic validation. This study's primary contribution lies in reconceptualizing audiovisual interpretation not merely as a medium of religious transmission, but as a critical instrument of social reflection. It argues that @Jedanulis promotes a shift from passive digital consumption toward reflective self-sovereignty, advocating a balanced (wasaṭīyah) mode of digital existence. By doing so, this research extends the field of digital religion by illustrating how new media can enable dialogical and therapeutic engagement with scripture.

Abstract

The discourse on the hijab in the contemporary context is no longer limited to a symbol of individual piety but has developed into an arena of identity contestation fraught with politicization, stereotypes, and discriminatory practices in the public sphere. This article examines these dynamics through a netnographic analysis of the Instagram account @lia_lestari29, which represents resistance to symbolic coercion, and then analyzes them through a synthesis of Quraish Shihab’s thoughts and the Qirā’ah Mubādalah approach. The results of the study show that the integration of legal flexibility based on maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah with the hermeneutics of reciprocity is capable of reconstructing textual readings that tend to be gender biased, particularly in the interpretation of the hadith kasiyāt ‘āriyāt. This study emphasizes that the construction of public morality should not be imposed exclusively on women, but rather be positioned as a collective ethical responsibility that binds men and women equally. Thus, the recontextualization of dress ethics based on the principles of al-ḥayā’ and gender justice is a prerequisite for the establishment of an inclusive, democratic social order that is free from structural exclusion.
