description |
Fundamental Islamic principles require that the
Qur’an, in whatever format, should remain intact. The
Internet is a huge source of different formats of the Qur’an.
Unfortunately some people are skeptical about the content of
any Islamic resource on the Internet, because of the deception
or misleading representation of Islam/Muslims found on many
websites. However, Islamic resources on the Internet still
impact many people in many ways, especially young people.
This paper investigates how online audio Qur’an empowers
listeners. The online audio Qur’an file can be downloaded and
installed on either a mobile device or a PC, or listened to on different websites. The research was carried out through a quantitative survey of 123 respondents; both descriptive and
inferential statistic analyses were used to develop and validate a new scale that measures the empowerment through Internet sources of audio Qur’an. The items on the scale measured the key variables that impact people in their use of online audio Qur’an. The result shows that the key attribute empowering listeners is competence. |
