Abstract

The rapid development of information technology has profoundly disrupted the contemporary religious landscape. This article aims to analyze the dynamics of shifting religious authority and the transformation of traditional Islamic knowledge transmission from physical assemblies (majelis taklim) to virtual spaces. This study employs a qualitative-descriptive approach using library research and a sociological-phenomenological analysis of congregation interaction patterns across various contemporary social media platforms. The findings indicate that the virtual space has given rise to fragmentation and the democratization of new religious authority, where digital popularity and visual rhetorical skills often supplant traditional criteria of scholarly expertise, such as authoritative chains of knowledge transmission (sanad keilmuan) and deep mastery of classical Islamic texts (kitab kuning). Although virtual-based transmission offers massive accessibility to information for urban societies, this remote learning model risks reducing the depth of essential spiritual value transfer, such as spiritual blessings (barakah) and character education (tarbiyah), which are typically fully acquired through direct interaction in physical assemblies. The results of this study offer a valuable conceptual contribution for practitioners and academics in mapping the sociology of cyber Islam, while proposing methodological adaptation strategies for traditional religious institutions to remain relevant in the digital era.
