Abstract

The rapid proliferation of social media platforms, particularly TikTok and Instagram, has fundamentally redefined the landscape of Islamic da'wah in the contemporary digital era. This study examines how Muslim preachers (da'i) strategically harness the affordances of these two platforms to disseminate Islamic teachings, cultivate religious communities, and adapt traditional preaching methods to algorithmically governed digital environments. Employing a systematic literature review methodology, this article synthesises findings from a corpus of recent empirical studies published between 2019 and 2025, with particular attention to works examining the Indonesian, Malaysian, Kazakhstani, Nigerian, and Bangladeshi contexts. The analysis reveals that TikTok's short-form video format and recommendation algorithm have created unprecedented opportunities for viral religious content, while Instagram's visual storytelling tools including Stories, Reels, and IGTV support a more sustained engagement with Islamic values and aesthetics. Both platforms, however, simultaneously introduce profound challenges: the commodification of religious authority, the risk of doctrinal distortion under the pressure of algorithmic optimisation, ethical tensions surrounding entertainment-oriented content, and the contested fragmentation of traditional scholarly legitimacy. This article further identifies key thematic trends including the emergence of digital da'i influencers, the construction of participatory Islamic communities online, the role of platforms in shaping moderate Islamic discourse for Generation Z, and the gendered dimensions of digital preaching. The study concludes that effective and ethically grounded digital da'wah requires a deliberate integration of Islamic communicative ethics with platform-specific content strategies, and that future research must more rigorously interrogate the algorithmic mediation of religious knowledge in Muslim-majority societies.

Abstract

This study examines the integration of Wahdatul 'Ulum values the unity of knowledge paradigm developed at UIN Sumatera Utara into the socio-religious life of Indonesian Muslims. Employing a qualitative approach grounded in social-religious hermeneutics, the research draws on participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentary analysis to reveal how integrative epistemological values are interpreted, negotiated, and embodied across diverse domains of Muslim practice. The study identifies seven principal manifestations of Wahdatul 'Ulum in Indonesian Muslim life: integrative Islamic higher education, tawhid-based Arabic language learning, Islamic communication and broadcasting, value-based leadership, Islamic healthy lifestyle promotion, halal supply chain management, and the religious moderation discourse. Findings demonstrate that the knowledge dichotomy inherited from the Dutch colonial era produced a dual epistemological crisis that Wahdatul 'Ulum systematically addresses through tawhidic ontology, positioning revelation and reason as complementary rather than hierarchical. The paradigm exhibits a deep epistemological convergence with the national wasatiyyah agenda, functioning as an epistemological vaccine against radicalism by cultivating holistic, multi-perspective critical thinking among students and communities. Islamic organizations particularly Nahdlatul Ulama and Muhammadiyah alongside pesantren and digital da'wah platforms serve as key agents amplifying the paradigm's reach beyond formal educational settings. Implementation challenges include the absence of operationally robust integration methodology, institutional resistance, resource constraints, and inadequate evaluation instruments. The study concludes that Wahdatul 'Ulum constitutes a strategic intellectual asset for Indonesia's religious moderation agenda and recommends comprehensive policy integration across education, the halal industry, and interfaith governance as a basis for future research and reform.

Abstract

The emergence of digital technology has profoundly reconfigured the landscape of Islamic religious authority, dismantling centuries-old institutional hierarchies and enabling new actors to claim epistemic legitimacy outside traditional scholarly networks. This study presents a systematic review of peer-reviewed literature published between 2021 and 2024 to examine the nature, scope, and implications of this transformation. Drawing on 40 empirical and theoretical publications sourced from SCOPUS-indexed and peer-reviewed journals, the review identifies six major thematic clusters: (1) the fragmentation of traditional religious authority structures; (2) the rise of digital da'wah and online fatwa issuance; (3) shifting patterns of youth and millennial religiosity in digital environments; (4) the role of social media algorithms in mediating Islamic discourse; (5) institutional adaptation by established Islamic bodies; and (6) emergent trust crises linked to anonymity and misinformation online. The review reveals that digitalization functions simultaneously as a democratizing and destabilizing force expanding access to Islamic knowledge while eroding established verification mechanisms that historically guaranteed scholarly integrity. Findings indicate that while traditional ulama retain symbolic authority, the criteria by which Muslims assess religious credibility have shifted toward aesthetic, relational, and algorithmic dimensions. The study contributes a conceptual typology of digital religious authority and calls for interdisciplinary frameworks that bridge Islamic jurisprudence, media studies, and sociology of religion to address the governance challenges posed by unregulated online Islamic discourse.

Abstract

The rapid growth of social media has significantly transformed Islamic religious communication, especially among Generation Z, the first fully digital-native generation. This study explores how popular Islamic culture is represented and disseminated through social media platforms, focusing on the forms of da'wah consumed and produced by Muslim youth. It examines the communication strategies, digital formats, and cultural dynamics that shape contemporary Islamic messages in online spaces. Using a systematic literature review approach, the study analyzes 20 peer-reviewed empirical articles published between 2021 and 2025 from contexts such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Qatar, and the wider global Muslim community. The analysis is grounded in theories of digital Islam, da'wah communication, popular culture, and sociology of religion. The findings identify four major trends: dawahtainment, which combines Islamic messages with entertainment; the democratization of religious authority through social media influencers; the use of viral aesthetics, humor, and digital trends in conveying Islamic values; and the emergence of moderate Islamic narratives as responses to online radicalism. Generation Z actively negotiates between religious authenticity and entertainment, using digital Islamic content for identity formation, spiritual growth, and social belonging. The study concludes that popular Islamic culture on social media represents an adaptive and dynamic form of da'wah suited to the digital environment of Generation Z.
