BEING A YOUNG MUSLIM IN GLOBALIZED; WHY ENGLISH MATTERS TO PROMOTE ISLAM IN THE WORLD

Zahwa Mulio Alika

Abstract


Abstract In a world growing more interconnected by the day, Islam is frequently portrayed through international communication networks that don't always reflect its fundamental principles. This study looks at how proactive communication might help spread the true message of Islam in the "global square."The study makes the case that "speaking"—defined as strategic, moral, and articulate participation in public discourse—is now a religious and societal requirement by examining current developments in digital globalization and the difficulties posed by Islamophobia. The study, which employs a qualitative literature review approach, finds that good communication promotes interfaith understanding, breaks down preconceptions, and fortifies the Ummah's global identity. The conversation emphasizes how, despite the potential for cultural deterioration, globalization offers Muslims hitherto unheard-of opportunities to share their principles of justice, compassion, and peace (Rahman) with a worldwide audience.
