Summary: | This study attempts to use Big Data Analytic Techniques to investigate the
views of Millennial Muslims on the effectiveness of scholars/preachers on cyber-Islam.
Two eminent scholars, Bilal Philips, and Mufti Menk have been chosen for this purpose.
It examines the changing expressions and manifestations of Islam because of historical
epochs and contexts. For example, the modern world is in its "post-postmodernist"
stage and context, which necessitates a rethinking of previous debates and discourses
on Islam. The Millennial Age is discussed, as well as its characteristics and their
implications for Muslim expression of Islam. Cyber-Islam is the study ofthe intersection
of Islam and online platforms. There is a review of academic literature on Bilal Philips
and Mufti Menk. This study's methodology is to incorporate data mining methods to
create a framework that can be used effectively to analyze the Twitter content and
followers of Bilal Philips and Mufti Menk from an Islamic perspective. The study reveals
various facts about Millennial Muslims as well as the way Islamic knowledge is
communicated via social media. The study concludes that combining social media
studies with Islamic studies can provide a more complete picture of contemporary
Muslims and their online engagement with Islam. |
