Abstrakt: Islam is a dynamic religion and Information Technology (IT) is a modern tool to solve many problems in the real world. This paper pinpoints areas where Information Technology can be used for Islam under the guidance of Qurān and Sunnah. Some areas where computer has already been in use are discussed here. How can we, the religious people benefit from Information Technology and other such modern inventions? What boundaries and limitations should we observe while using computer and other electronic inventions according to shariah. We shall focus the benefits that we can draw from the use of Information Technology in the field of Islam and what service can we render to Islam and its preaching by utilizing such things. Apart from this, we will also discuss the negative use of Information Technology in the light of the teachings of Islam in this regard. We shall focus how can we combat the misuse and take negativities out of it so that we can maximize the benefits of Information Technology and can make it a source of our success not only in this world but in the world hereafter. We are sure if used properly, this apparently worldly invention and machine can become a great source of earning ultimate success on the Day of Judgment. But for this we have to observe certain limitations and the current article is an effort to cover all or as many aspects as possible. Computer is not something we can let go off or ignore because it has very far-reaching in impacts on human life in modern times. So, we must address its uses and abuses in the light of Islam and must devise some rules and regulations for its better use. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
