In the current era of artificial intelligence, where AI systems have penetrated almost every aspect of life, the Islamic jurisprudential system is also being affected by this transformation. The concept of AI Mufti refers to a system that provides Shariah guidance through algorithms. This paper presents a review of the ethical guidelines required for AI-based fatwa preparation, attempting to create harmony between modern technology and Islamic principles. We will examine how AI systems can be designed according to Islamic jurisprudential principles, while also analyzing the risks that may arise from using AI Mufti without proper guidance. The rapid development of artificial intelligence has presented both new challenges and opportunities for the Islamic jurisprudential system. The concept of AI Mufti actually refers to a system capable of learning the principles of Islamic jurisprudence and applying them to new issues. This system can not only digitize existing jurisprudential knowledge but also help find Shariah solutions to new problems. However, developing such a system requires expertise in both deep Shariah knowledge and modern technology. Throughout Islamic history, the jurisprudential system has always adapted to the demands of time, and the use of AI is actually a link in this continuity. But the biggest challenge is how to design AI systems according to the fundamental principles of Islamic jurisprudence. Islamic jurisprudence is not merely a collection of rules and regulations but a living and dynamic system that works on principles like induction, analogy, juristic preference, and public interest for solving new problems. AI systems will need to develop the capability to understand and properly apply all these principles. This will require not only large-scale data but also algorithms that can understand the complex process of jurisprudential reasoning. For example, when an AI system searches for a solution to a problem, it should not be limited to ancient texts but should also understand the application of jurisprudential principles with changing times and spaces. This task is extremely complex because jurisprudential inference requires not only textual evidence but also consideration of principles like the objectives of Shariah, public interests, and customary practices. AI systems must be designed to understand all these aspects. Additionally, the AI Mufti system must understand differences between various schools of thought and be capable of providing guidance according to the user’s jurisprudential affiliation. All these tasks are extremely complex and require deep cooperation between Islamic scholars and AI experts.

Additionally, the AI Mufti system must understand differences between various schools of thought and be capable of providing guidance according to the user’s jurisprudential affiliation. All these tasks are extremely complex and require deep cooperation between Islamic scholars and AI experts.

The digitalization of Islamic jurisprudential principles is an extremely complex process facing several challenges. The first challenge is that most of Islamic jurisprudence is in Arabic, and it’s not easy for AI systems to understand the complex style of Arabic language and jurisprudential terminology. Understanding the difference between literal and terminological meanings in Arabic will be quite difficult for AI systems. The second major challenge is jurisprudential diversity. Different schools of thought exist in the Islamic world, and each school has its specific principles and regulations. The AI system must understand all these schools of thought and be capable of providing guidance according to each school. The third challenge is digitizing the process of jurisprudential reasoning. Jurisprudential reasoning is not merely about collecting texts but involves the use of analogy, juristic preference, public interest, and other principles. AI systems must be made capable of understanding and properly applying all these principles. The fourth challenge is incorporating the objectives of Shariah into AI systems. The objectives of Shariah are actually the fundamental purposes of Islamic law, without which no jurisprudential decision can be correct. AI systems must be made capable of understanding these objectives and considering them in every decision. The fifth challenge is incorporating changes in jurisprudential opinions over time into AI systems. Jurisprudential opinions are not static but dynamic, and they change over time. AI systems must be made capable of understanding these changes and adapting themselves accordingly. Despite all these challenges, there are many opportunities in the digitalization of Islamic jurisprudential principles. Digitalization can make access to jurisprudential knowledge easier, accelerate the process of jurisprudential research, and help create harmony between different schools of thought. Additionally, digitalization can increase transparency in jurisprudential decisions and help better understand the principles behind decisions.

The AI Mufti system requires a comprehensive ethical framework that can create harmony between Islamic ethics and modern technology. Some important aspects of this framework are as follows: The first important aspect is transparency. AI systems should be designed to clearly present the principles and reasoning behind their decisions. Users should have the right to know on what basis the decision was made and which sources were consulted. The second important aspect is accountability. It is essential to clarify who will be responsible for the decisions of AI systems. The third aspect is justice and impartiality. AI systems should be designed not to be biased in favor of any particular school of thought or opinion. The fourth aspect is respect for privacy. AI systems should ensure the protection of users’ personal information. The fifth aspect is reconciliation and interests. AI systems should always prioritize the principles of reconciliation and interests. The sixth aspect is precaution. Wherever there are doubts and suspicions, AI systems should adopt precautionary principles. The seventh aspect is continuous monitoring and improvement. AI systems should remain under constant monitoring and should be improved over time. The eighth aspect is human supervision. Human supervision over AI system decisions is necessary, especially in important matters. The ninth aspect is cultural sensitivity. AI systems should be sensitive to different cultures and traditions. The tenth aspect is education and training. The purpose of AI systems should not be only to issue fatwas but also to educate and train users.

Creating harmony between jurisprudential reasoning and AI algorithms is extremely important for the success of the AI Mufti system. Jurisprudential reasoning is a complex process involving text interpretation, analogy, juristic preference, public interest, and other principles. AI algorithms must be made capable of understanding and properly applying all these aspects. For this, the latest AI technologies such as deep learning, natural language processing, and knowledge graphs will need to be used. The first step in incorporating jurisprudential reasoning into AI is digitizing jurisprudential texts. After that, knowledge graphs will need to be developed to understand relationships between these texts. Then, reasoning principles will need to be shaped into algorithms. After that, these algorithms will need to be trained through training data. Finally, their performance will need to be continuously tested and improved. The biggest challenge in creating harmony between jurisprudential reasoning and AI algorithms is incorporating the process of jurisprudential ijtihad into AI. Ijtihad is not merely about collecting existing information but also involves finding new solutions for new problems. AI systems must be made capable of finding new solutions for new problems in light of existing principles. This task is extremely complex and requires incorporating creative capabilities into AI systems, which is currently largely beyond AI’s capabilities.

The AI Mufti system can have profound impacts on the global Islamic community. On one hand, this system can make access to Islamic knowledge easier, especially in areas where there is a shortage of Islamic scholars. On the other hand, this system can promote jurisprudential uniformity and help create harmony between different schools of thought. Additionally, this system can help find Shariah solutions to new problems. However, there may also be some negative effects. For example, if the AI system is biased in favor of a particular school of thought, it could increase division between schools of thought. Also, if AI system decisions are considered final, it could close the door of ijtihad. Furthermore, reliance on AI systems could reduce the importance of Islamic scholars. Therefore, the AI Mufti system should be designed in such a way that it proves beneficial for the Islamic community and its negative effects can be avoided.

Islamic educational institutions can play an important role in the development of the AI Mufti system. These institutions can provide standard data for AI systems, help train AI algorithms, and monitor AI system decisions. Also, these institutions can provide guidance for using the AI Mufti system. This will require deep cooperation between Islamic educational institutions and AI developers. Islamic educational institutions should try to understand AI technology, and AI developers should try to understand the principles of Islamic jurisprudence. Only through cooperation between both can an AI system be developed that conforms to Islamic principles and meets modern requirements.

There are many possibilities for a joint path between AI and Islamic jurisprudence in the future. AI systems will not only issue fatwas but will also help in jurisprudential research. They will automatically perform ijtihad to find solutions to new problems. They will help create harmony between different schools of thought. Also, they will help spread Islamic knowledge worldwide. However, turning these possibilities into reality will require much hard work and cooperation. Islamic scholars and AI experts will need to work together and develop a system that conforms to Islamic principles and meets modern requirements.

The concept of AI Mufti presents both opportunities and challenges. On one hand, it can make access to Islamic knowledge easier and adapt the jurisprudential system to modern requirements. On the other hand, if used without proper guidance, it could have negative effects. Therefore, there is a need to adopt a balanced path where AI’s benefits can be obtained and its risks avoided. This will require deep cooperation between Islamic scholars, AI experts, and policymakers. Only in this way can an AI system be developed that conforms to Islamic principles and proves beneficial for the Islamic community.

Implementing the AI Mufti system will require a phased strategy. In the first phase, small-scale pilot projects can be started where AI systems are tested on limited issues. In the second phase, system improvements can be made by reviewing the results of these projects. In the third phase, the system can be introduced on a large scale. Along with this, programs will need to be arranged for user training. Also, a mechanism will need to be established for continuous monitoring and evaluation of the system. Implementing the AI Mufti system will require considering both technical and Shariah aspects. Technically, the system should be secure, efficient, and user-friendly. From a Shariah perspective, the system should conform to Islamic principles and should operate under the supervision of Islamic scholars. Also, the system should maintain balance between different schools of thought and should not be biased in favor of one school of thought. The most important thing during the implementation of the AI Mufti system is to gain users’ trust. Users need to be assured that the system is reliable and its decisions conform to Islamic principles. Also, users need to be told what the system’s limitations are and in which matters they should consult human scholars. For the success of the AI Mufti system, the process of continuous improvement will need to be maintained. Over time, new features will need to be added to the system and user experiences will need to be improved. Also, the system will need to be continuously updated to make it capable of solving new problems.

The AI Mufti system can have profound impacts on society. This system can change the way Islamic knowledge is distributed. It can affect the relationship between common people and Islamic scholars. Also, this system can affect traditional methods of Islamic education. Therefore, it is essential to assess these impacts and take measures to turn them in a positive direction. Positive social impacts of the AI Mufti system include easier access to Islamic knowledge for common people, promotion of transparency in jurisprudential decisions, and promotion of harmony between different schools of thought. However, there may also be some negative effects, such as reduced importance of Islamic scholars, lack of uniformity in jurisprudential decisions, and users’ excessive dependence on the system. To avoid these negative effects, the AI Mufti system should be designed in such a way that it does not replace Islamic scholars but assists them. Also, the system should maintain balance between different schools of thought and tell users in which matters they should consult human scholars. Regular studies will be needed to assess the social impact of the AI Mufti system. These studies will examine to what extent the system is having positive effects on society and in which aspects improvement is needed. Also, users’ experiences and opinions will need to be regularly reviewed so that the system can be adapted to their needs.

Ensuring the protection of data used in the AI Mufti system is extremely essential. Strict security measures will need to be taken to protect users’ personal information from unauthorized access. Also, transparency will need to be maintained regarding data usage and users’ consent will need to be obtained. The AI Mufti system uses two types of data: users’ personal data and jurisprudential data. Users’ personal data includes their personal information, questions, and preferences. Measures such as encryption, secure data storage, and access controls will need to be taken to protect this data. Jurisprudential data includes Islamic texts, jurisprudential books, and previous fatwas. Measures such as backup systems, protection of data integrity, and prevention of unauthorized modifications will need to be taken to protect this data. Also, transparency will need to be maintained regarding data usage. Users need to be told how their data is being used and for what purposes it is being stored. Users’ data cannot be used without their consent. Also, users should have the right to withdraw or delete their data. International standards will need to be adopted for data protection in the AI Mufti system. Also, the system’s security will need to be regularly audited so that any type of weakness can be promptly addressed.

The AI Mufti system can also help promote interfaith harmony. This system can highlight common values between different religions. Also, this system can help introduce non-Muslims to the correct teachings of Islam. The AI Mufti system can be designed to highlight common values between different religions. For example, the system can highlight those ethical principles that are common in all religions. Also, the system can help remove misunderstandings between different religions. For non-Muslims, the AI Mufti system can be a source of acquaintance with the correct teachings of Islam. The system can answer non-Muslims’ questions and inform them about the basic teachings of Islam. Also, the system can help non-Muslims understand how Islam instructs to treat followers of different religions. To promote interfaith harmony, the AI Mufti system should be impartial. The system cannot prioritize one religion over another. Also, the system should respect all religions and avoid negative statements about any religion. Interfaith dialogue can also be promoted through the AI Mufti system. The system can provide a platform for conversation between followers of different religions. Also, the system can help promote joint projects between different religions.

Clear standards will need to be established to test the performance of the AI Mufti system. These standards should include accuracy, speed, transparency, and user satisfaction. Also, a procedure will need to be formulated for continuous testing and improvement of the system. To test the accuracy of the AI Mufti system, it will be seen to what extent the system’s decisions conform to Islamic principles. For this, a committee of Islamic scholars can be formed to review the system’s decisions and verify their accuracy. To test the system’s speed, it will be seen how quickly the system provides answers to users’ questions. Also, it will be seen to what extent the system works effectively during heavy load. To test the system’s transparency, it will be seen to what extent the system clearly presents the reasoning behind its decisions. Also, it will be seen which sources the system is consulting and to what extent users have access to these sources. Surveys and feedback systems will need to be established to test user satisfaction. System improvements will need to be made according to users’ opinions and suggestions. Also, a help desk will need to be established to solve users’ problems. Regular audits will need to be conducted to test the performance of the AI Mufti system. These audits will review all aspects of the system and necessary improvement measures will be taken. Also, performance data will need to be regularly recorded so that changes in performance over time can be reviewed.

Deep cooperation between Islamic scholars and AI experts will be needed for a successful AI Mufti system. Both parties will need to learn each other’s language and techniques. Also, joint research centers can be established where both parties can work together. Islamic scholars can provide Shariah guidance for the AI Mufti system. They can help provide correct data for the system, verify the accuracy of the system’s decisions, and provide Shariah guidance for using the system. AI experts can design and develop the system according to the Shariah guidance of Islamic scholars. They can develop required algorithms for the system, improve the system’s performance, and ensure the system’s security. Joint workshops, seminars, and conferences can be organized for cooperation between both parties. Also, joint research centers can be established where both parties can research AI and Islamic jurisprudence together. A common language will need to be developed for cooperation between Islamic scholars and AI experts. Islamic scholars will need to be made aware of basic AI terms and concepts, while AI experts will need to be made aware of basic Islamic jurisprudence terms and concepts. Also, both parties will need to try to understand and respect each other’s viewpoints. A successful AI Mufti system cannot be developed without cooperation between Islamic scholars and AI experts. Only through cooperation of both parties can a system be developed that conforms to Islamic principles and meets modern requirements.

The future possibilities of AI Mufti are very vast. In the coming time, these systems may become capable of solving more complex problems. Also, these systems may become capable of working in different languages. Additionally, these systems may learn to adapt themselves according to users’ needs. One of the future possibilities of the AI Mufti system is that these systems will not only issue fatwas but will also help in jurisprudential research. These systems will automatically perform ijtihad to find solutions to new problems. Also, these systems will help create harmony between different schools of thought. Another future possibility of the AI Mufti system is that these systems will become capable of working in different languages. Currently, most AI systems perform better in English, but in the coming time, these systems will work effectively in Arabic, Urdu, and other Islamic languages as well. Also, these systems will become capable of working in users’ local languages. Another future possibility of the AI Mufti system is that these systems will learn to adapt themselves according to users’ needs. These systems will be able to adjust themselves according to users’ preferences, jurisprudential affiliation, and knowledge level. Also, these systems will be able to consider users’ specific circumstances and needs when answering their questions. Continuous research and development will be needed to turn the future possibilities of the AI Mufti system into reality. Islamic scholars and AI experts will need to work together and adapt new technologies according to Islamic principles. Also, continuous efforts will need to be maintained to improve the system’s performance.

There are several conditions for the success of the AI Mufti system. These include standard data, correct algorithms, continuous monitoring, and users’ trust. Also, the system should conform to Islamic principles and meet modern requirements. Standard data will be needed for the success of the AI Mufti system. Without data quality, the system cannot make correct decisions. To ensure data quality, data will need to be collected and verified under the supervision of Islamic scholars. Also, data will need to be continuously updated so that new jurisprudential opinions and changes can be included in the system. Correct algorithms will be needed for the success of the AI Mufti system. Without algorithm accuracy, the system cannot perform jurisprudential reasoning correctly. To ensure algorithm accuracy, they will need to be developed and tested under the supervision of Islamic scholars. Also, algorithms will need to be continuously improved so that they can solve new problems. Continuous monitoring will be needed for the success of the AI Mufti system. Without monitoring the system, its performance and accuracy cannot be ensured. An independent committee can be established for monitoring, including Islamic scholars, AI experts, and user representatives. This committee will regularly review the system’s performance and suggest necessary improvement measures. Gaining users’ trust is essential for the success of the AI Mufti system. Without users’ trust, the system cannot succeed. To gain users’ trust, transparency, accountability, and quality will need to be ensured in the system. Also, users’ problems will need to be promptly solved and their opinions will need to be valued.

The economic aspects of the AI Mufti system are also important. The costs of implementing and maintaining this system will need to be borne. Also, the economic benefits of the system will need to be assessed. Additionally, the system’s financial stability will need to be ensured. The implementation costs of the AI Mufti system include costs of data collection and verification, costs of algorithm development, costs of system preparation and implementation, and costs of system maintenance and updates. Funds will be needed to bear these costs. There can be various sources for obtaining funds, such as government grants, public donations, and funding from international organizations. The economic benefits of the AI Mufti system include easier access to Islamic knowledge, promotion of transparency in jurisprudential decisions, and promotion of harmony between different schools of thought. Also, this system can help reduce the costs of Islamic education. A sustainable financial model will need to be developed to ensure the financial stability of the AI Mufti system. This model should be capable of maintaining balance between the system’s expenses and income. There can be various sources of system income, such as donations from users, sale of related services, and support from partner institutions. Regular economic studies will be needed to review the economic aspects of the AI Mufti system. These studies will analyze the system’s costs and benefits and suggest measures to ensure the system’s financial stability.

Clarifying the legal status of the AI Mufti system is essential. What will be the legal status of this system’s decisions? This question will need to be answered. Also, legal regulations will need to be established for using the system. There may be different opinions about the legal status of the AI Mufti system. Some people may consider it a consultative system, while some may give it the status of a final mufti. However, it would be more appropriate to give the AI Mufti system the status of a consultative system and not consider its decisions final. Legal regulations will need to be established for using the system. These regulations should clearly state the system’s limitations, users’ rights and responsibilities, and the legal status of the system’s decisions. Also, a procedure will need to be established for resolving disputes arising during system use. The legal status of the AI Mufti system will also need to be clarified at the international level. Different countries may have different laws, so the legal status will need to be determined according to each country’s laws. Also, guidance will need to be provided for international use of the system. Dialogue is needed between Islamic scholars, legal experts, and policymakers about the legal status of the AI Mufti system. Through this dialogue, a balanced viewpoint can be developed about the system’s legal status that can create harmony between Islamic principles and modern legal requirements.

The cultural impact of the AI Mufti system can also be profound. This system can help promote Islamic culture. Also, this system can help create harmony between different cultures. Therefore, it is essential to assess these impacts and turn them in a positive direction. Positive cultural impacts of the AI Mufti system include highlighting different aspects of Islamic culture, promoting Islamic civilization and culture, and promoting mutual respect between different cultures. This system can also help remove misunderstandings about Islamic culture. However, there may also be some negative cultural effects. For example, if the system is biased in favor of a particular culture, it could create cultural conflicts. Also, if the system is designed without cultural sensitivity, it could hurt cultural sentiments. To turn the cultural impact of the AI Mufti system in a positive direction, the system will need to be designed with cultural sensitivity. The system should respect the customs, traditions, and values of different cultures. Also, the system should be designed to promote cultural diversity. Consultation with cultural experts will be needed to assess the cultural impact of the AI Mufti system. Cultural experts can provide guidance in the system’s design and implementation and ensure that the system is operating with cultural sensitivity.

Establishing balance between the AI Mufti system and human authority is extremely important. AI systems should not completely replace human decisions but should assist them. Also, the final decision should always remain in human hands. Maintaining this balance is essential for the success of the AI Mufti system. The AI Mufti system should be used as a supportive tool, not as a replacement for human intellect and authority. The system can provide information and guidance to users, but users should make the final decision themselves. Also, in important matters, users should consult human scholars. To maintain balance between the AI Mufti system and human authority, the system should be designed to tell users that its decisions are not final and that consulting human scholars in important matters is necessary. Also, the system should make users aware of their responsibilities and tell them that the final decision is their own responsibility. Guidance from Islamic scholars will be needed to maintain balance between the AI Mufti system and human authority. Islamic scholars can determine in which matters AI system decisions can be considered final and in which matters consulting human scholars is necessary. Also, they can determine what the Shariah status of AI system decisions is. Maintaining balance between the AI Mufti system and human authority is extremely important for the system’s success. If this balance is not maintained, the system could have negative effects, such as users’ excessive dependence on the system, reduced importance of human scholars, and users’ carelessness about their responsibilities. Therefore, every possible measure should be taken to maintain this balance.
