The Role of Al-Quran in the millennial era

Innal hamdalillah, nahmaduhu wanasta’inuhuu wanastaghfiruhu,, wa na’udzubillahi min syuruuri anfusinaa wa min sayyiaati a’maalinaa, may-yahdihil laahu falaa mudhillalah, wa-may yudhlil falaa haadiyalah, Asyhadu an-laa ilaa-ha illallaah, wahdahula syariikalah, wa-asyhadu anna muhammadan ‘abduhu wa rosuluh, amma ba’du.

Standing here I’m proud to like to talk about The role of the Holy Qur’an in this millennial era.

 Well, we know that Technology has been a driving force of progress and innovation for centuries, shaping the way we live, work, and interact with each other. From the invention of the wheel to the latest developments in artificial intelligence, technology has constantly pushed the boundaries of what is possible.

In recent years, technology has transformed every aspect of our lives, from the way we communicate to the way we access information, from the way we conduct business, to the way we gain money virtually. It has connected us like never before, breaking down barriers and bringing people from all over the world closer together.

However, with this rapid advancement in technology comes new challenges and questions about its impact on society, especially for the Muslim generation. It's up to us to consider these implications and to ensure that technology is used for the betterment of humanity.

 

However, technological use can also negatively affect teens, distracting them, disrupting their sleep, and exposing them to bullying, rumor spreading, unrealistic views of other people's lives, and peer pressure.

 Well in facing this technological era we should have guidance in order to be safe in this world and hereafter. Al-Quran, the holy book of Islam, offers guidance on how to face the negative impacts of globalization. Some of the principles and values emphasized in the Quran can help address the challenges of globalization.

 

In the Habits narrated by [HR. Bukhari and Muslim]

 

فَوَاللَّهِ مَا الْفَقْرَ أَخْشَى عَلَيْكُمْ وَلَكِنِّي أَخْشَى أَنْ تُبْسَطَ عَلَيْكُمْ الدُّنْيَا كَمَا بُسِطَتْ عَلَى مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ فَتَنَافَسُوهَا كَمَا تَنَافَسُوهَا وَتُهْلِكَكُمْ كَمَا أَهْلَكَتْهُمْ

 

For the sake of Allah! It's not poverty that I'm worried about you, but what I'm worried about is that you will be given worldly prosperity as it was given to people before you, then you will compete like them. So that in the end, the world causes you to perish like them.

 

From the hadith we can assume that even in this Milenial era we will gain more advantages in the other hand it will be a challenge for us as the Mulsim generation

 

The Holly Qur'an plays a significant role in guiding young Muslims in facing the challenges of modernization and globalization. It provides a moral and ethical framework to help them navigate the complexities of modern life and make informed decisions. The Qur'an teaches the importance of patience, compassion, honesty, and other values that can help young Muslims build strong character and resilience. Additionally, it encourages the pursuit of knowledge and understanding, which is essential for success in a rapidly changing and complex world. By following the teachings of the Qur'an, young Muslims can maintain their religious and cultural identity while also participating actively in the global community.
