Unravelling the Socio-Political Turmoil in Islamic Society: A Qur'ānic Dissection of the Causes Underpinning its Weakness and Disintegration

Abstract

This research explores the socio-political turmoil and disintegration within contemporary Islamic society, emphasizing the causes as outlined in the Qur'ān. It investigates the historical, religious, and social reasons behind the weakening of Islamic unity and identity. The study examines the role of faith in the victories of past Islamic conquests, highlighting the correlation between obedience to Allah and success in both spiritual and worldly affairs. It also delves into the negative impact of modern media, particularly social media, on family dynamics and societal values, which contributes to moral decline and social fragmentation. Drawing on Qur'ānic teachings, the paper underscores the importance of upholding Islamic values, educating the youth, and fostering a cohesive society grounded in faith. The research concludes with recommendations to safeguard the Islamic identity, promote intellectual growth, and establish a media system that aligns with Islamic principles.
