UNDERSTANDING THE CONCEPT OF QUR’AN LITERACY IN THE DIGITAL ERA

Abstract


This study examines the understanding of the concept of Qur'an literacy in the digital era through qualitative literature studies with content and conceptual analysis. The literature study shows the evolution of the meaning of Qur'an literacy from just a technical competence of reading and writing (qira'ah) to a multidimensional concept that integrates the treasures of the classic Qur'an with the principles of modern literacy. The results of the analysis reveal four main comprehension tendencies in contemporary discourse:literacy as a functional-critical competency that includes understanding, reflection, and criticism of texts;literacy as a multidisciplinary approach that reads the Qur'an through various lenses of knowledge; literacy as a social practice and self-transformation that internalizes values; and  digital literacy which involves the ability to access, select, and use digital resources about the Qur'an wisely. These findings reflect the epistemological reformulation of the Ulumul Qur'an discipline that is integrative, participatory, and contextual. The resulting Qur'an literacy concept is a dynamic competency that enables individuals to interact actively, critically, and transformatively with sacred texts, as well as use digital technology responsibly. Thus, this research offers a new perspective and enriches academic discourse on Qur'an science that is relevant to the challenges of society in the digital era.
