Digital Disruption in The Recitation of Al-Qur’an: an Ethical and Phonetic Study of The Phenomenon of Quranic Songs in The Era of Society 5.0
Abstract
The phenomenon of the Quranic Songs YouTube account that combines the recitation of the Qur’an with DJ music accompaniment has sparked debate, especially regarding the application of the principles of tartil and adab in reading the holy text. This study aims to analyze the extent to which the recitation of the Qur’an on the Quranic Songs YouTube account complies with or contradicts the principles of tartil and adab, and to explore the public's response to the content. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with a purposive sampling technique. Data were obtained through in-depth observation of videos from the Quranic Songs account that integrate the recitation of the Qur’an with DJ music and visual elements. Data analysis was carried out using a content analysis approach to identify elements related to tartil and adab in the recitation of the Qur'an. The results of the study show that although the pronunciation in the Quranic Songs content at first glance seems to fulfill some aspects of tartil, in reality there are a number of inconsistencies that interfere with the clarity and accuracy of the pronunciation of the verses of the Qur’an according to the correct rules of tajwid. Some lafadz appear unclear or are even left unpronounced, and almost all the pronunciation of letters only reaches the minimum limit of makhraj, without a touch of the perfection of articulation that should be maintained. The use of DJ music and visualizations in the video also distorts the focus on pronunciation, causing inaccuracies in tajwid that are difficult to understand clearly. In addition, the incorporation of non-traditional elements such as DJ music is considered inconsistent with the sacred etiquette of reading the Qur'an. The majority of respondents rejected the integration of music in reading the Qur'an, because it reflects the tension between technological innovation and efforts to maintain traditional values in religious practice. This study is expected to provide a deeper understanding of the application of the principles of tartil and etiquette in reading the Qur'an in the digital era, especially through a study of the YouTube account Quranic Songs, as well as exploring the public response to the practice.
