Abstract

Today, the digital era is rapidly developing and artificial intelligence (AI) has brought transformative changes across diverse industrial sectors. Its application also generates complex ethical challenges, particularly related to algorithmic fairness, data privacy, and accountability in decision-making. The absence of Islamic ethical guidance in AI deployment has further resulted in practices that are misaligned with Sharia principles. In this regard, the maqāṣid al-Qurʾān plays its role in emphasising the preservation of human dignity, justice and well-being in all aspects of life, in addition to providing a promising foundation for guiding the ethical use of AI. This article explored the framework proposed by Yūsuf al- Qaraḍāwī in his work Kayf Nataʿāmal Maʿa al-Qurʾān al-ʿAẓīm (How to Engage with the Noble Quran), which articulates a systematic understanding of maqāṣid al-Qurʾān that can be applied to contemporary issues. By employing a qualitative methodology through content analysis, the study analysed al-Qaraḍāwī’s conception of maqāṣid al-Qurʾān and inquiry into its relevance in addressing the ethical dilemmas of AI. The findings indicated that the principles outlined in his framework can serve as a clear guide for ensuring that AI development and its application are consistent with Sharia objectives. Moreover, the study highlighted the necessity for collaboration between Islamic scholars and technology experts in formulating comprehensive guidelines that direct AI towards promoting social welfare, protecting fundamental human rights, and preventing harm. Such an approach ensures that technological advancement becomes a source of benefit for humanity while safeguarding ethical and spiritual values.
