AI-POWERED PLATFORMS FOR ISLAMIC EDUCATION: OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES

Abstract

The application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Islamic education comes with unique opportunities as well as formidable challenges. The development of AI-powered platforms leads to fulfilled individual learning needs, improved access to education, and better knowledge dissemination provided by adaptive learning systems. There are more advanced processes of education with the integration of modern technology in traditional and online Islamic education. On the other hand, ethical issues, cultural prejudices, data privacy challenges, and diminished human contact in education are some of the most important problems. This paper analyzes the application of AI in Islamic education through several illustrative case studies while considering the impacts as well as the negative consequences and ethical issues resulting from using AI. In the end, this study suggests that there needs to be a compromise that incorporates AI innovations in Islamic education while making sure that the spiritual, moral, and ethical underpinnings of Islam are not violated. Close attention from Muslim educators and AI specialists is necessary in order to responsible and inclusive apply AI for Islamic education in the classroom.
