Abstract

Digitization has transformed how religion is studied, with religious education shifting from text-based (scriptural) to media-based (virtual). This study seeks to understand how Muslim young adults in Indonesia have responded to the digitization of Islamic education, examining not only trends in digitals religious education, but also their implications for Islamic education. It employs a qualitative descriptive approach, using observation, interviews, and focus group discussions to collect data. It finds that religious education has transformed from face-to-face discussions with religious scholars into mediated online interactions. This has resulted from three factors: the ease and affordability of online religious media, the cost and time efficiency inherent to online media, and the diversity and comprehensiveness of available digital media. This study recommends that future researchers investigate how online media can be used to promote a deeper religious understanding.
