The present study was the jurisprudential answer to the question of whether the Islamic State, during its absence or natural persons, has the legal right to filter web pages, satellite TVs and virtual social networks that seek non-religious or anti-religious education. And block? Based on this research, it can be concluded that the first principle is the sanctity of forbidding others from accessing web pages, satellite TVs and virtual social networks; But knowing the denial of web pages, satellite TVs, and virtual social networks, it is necessary to filter and prevent others from being educated and accessing these pages, TVs, and networks, if there is no harm or corruption in filtering.

Today, with the advancement of technology and the increasing use of advanced communication tools such as cyberspace by the people, especially the youth, Islamic countries are facing widespread attacks by internal and external enemies. These attacks and threats are so widespread that the Supreme Leader has interpreted them as soft war. In this virtual war and battle, it is necessary for all Islamic countries - especially the Islamic Republic of Iran - to use the available facilities and capacities and based on one of the most important defense strategies - passive defense - to defend against these attacks. To pay. Passive defense is a type of defense without military weapons, one of the methods of which in software attacks is the use of existing capabilities in cyberspace. Cyberspace is a good platform for propagating religious knowledge, answering religious doubts, training specialized and skilled forces in the field of religion and sharia. Among these, the role of governments and religious institutions is more important; So that based on the sharia principles of passive defense in the field of cyberspace, it can be ruled out the necessity and necessity of activity in this field. In this study, after explaining passive defense in soft warfare, the capacities of cyberspace in the field of religious education were examined and it was concluded that today religious education in cyberspace is a kind of defense against the enemies of religion and this type of activity Has become a necessity in the field of cyberspace, so much so that it can be said that the most important role in this duty is played by governments and religious institutions.

This paper, that will be presented in the First International Conference of Capacity and Impact of Cyberspace in Promoting Religious Education, October 19-20, 2017 in Al-Mustafa Open University, Iran, has an hypotesis that Islam is the great religion that could give the solid foundation for human being among modernism ideas and to describe the local wisdom that is always giving a good benefit to the moslem life and their surroundings in the digital or Internet time. This view had been analyzed on the ideas of Syeikh Muhammad Abduh, a great muslim scholar, revolutionary fatwa maker and also a great ulama in Egypt. To analyze his ideas and local wisdom, this paper use qualitative method with the combination of sources from academic journals, books and news about how moslem people nowadays can absorb the highlight ideas of Islam and local wisdom based on Abduh’s thougts. On the analysis part, this paper will write the short biography and the ideas of Abduh, especially his concept of “one ummah”, the definition of local wisdom based on Al-Quran and Hadist and the concept of modernism related to current islamic fatwa concerning local wisdom. Besides, this paper will relate those thoughts of Abduh with the condition of Indonesian moslems nowadays, based on current statistics and surveys, to value how much is Indonesian moslems think about the modern islamic political issues in the digital or Internet time. This paper is hoped to spread ideas that Islam is a good religion that can maintain local wisdom, eventhough at the same time, moslem people have to do jihad to defend their tauhid.

Privacy is one of the most important issues in the field of Islamic law and ethics, which in Islamic law is related to the two concepts of justice and security; On the other hand, with the growth of information technology and the influence of communication networks and the impact on human actions and interactions - especially in higher education centers and universities - this concept has been more prominent in recent decades. Higher education and university cyberspace, on the one hand, have made academic relations extremely easy, and on the other hand, have made it possible to encroach on privacy not previously available to others. In this research, ethical norms in three areas of users, managers and processors of cyber content have been studied by the method of document analysis and documentary analysis and based on Quranic verses and Islamic traditions. The results indicate that the norms of Islamic ethics of privacy in cyberspace of higher education and university education are deeply linked to the general concepts of honesty, trustworthiness, confidentiality, commitment and privacy and can be a new step in explaining the ethical principles of privacy issues.

The present era is faced with many mass media and of course virtual spaces with a variety of capabilities and capabilities. Communicating in the global village now and exchanging it, along with presenting false and biased cultures and propaganda about factions, groups, individuals and in particular religion, is very common and accessible. What has always been the cause of harm is the original culture and text of religion and beliefs that have been subjected to cyberbullying. Emerging mystics, the phenomenon of Da'ishism, and the many networks and pseudo-groups that have changed the appearance and layout of religion have shown it in a different way to the world - especially to the youth, and in the meantime, to the damage done to Islam, It is noteworthy; in such a situation, cyberspace should be able to show the true face of the religion and to fight anti-religious propaganda while launching the right networks, groups and links to promote Islamic culture and presenting the Qur'anic interpretations and sources correctly.

Due to the great importance of the media in everyday life, a macro-theoretical understanding of the media is important, in which new media in the context of cyberspace - such as the Internet - can be studied and explored from different theoretical and practical perspectives. This descriptive-analytical study seeks to answer the question of what is the identity of new media and based on McLuhan's idea of hot and cold media, new communication media are considered hot or cold media and the effect of such an identity. What about teaching religious knowledge? For this reason, the present study first defines cyberspace and separates its important features; Then, according to McLuhan's idea of hot and cold media, which is a practical topic in the field of communication theories and also has a cultural and philosophical approach, he used it to analyze cyberspace that did not exist in McLuhan's era. In the first stage, the article develops new terms from hot and cold, which it names as clear and obscure media; In the second stage, it analyzes cyberspace in a spectral way and in the spectrum, it achieves five stages of cold and clear, low-key, moderate, rich, hot and obscure media. This research - the mixed identity of cyberspace - deals with and explains it; At the end of the research, the position of new media based on the expressed spectrum, close to cold and clear media is introduced. According to this classification, researchers believe that religious concepts have a limited capacity to be presented in cyberspace due to their proximity to the epistemological and learning dimensions.

In today's world where the mass media surrounds human life in various ways and directs his thoughts, a new space has emerged in the discussion of religion and its relationship with the media, which on the one hand paves the way for propaganda. Religious education and raising the level of religious education will make it smoother and promise to move towards new propaganda programs; But on the other hand, it provides a pervasive platform for the enemies of religion and skeptics. In the meantime, and so that various media - especially the Internet - can have high power in this area; The need for efficient management in this area is evident. Media management is based on two basic foundations: optimal management of the media organization and media content management; Cyberspace, as a very wide and accessible medium, has a high capacity in propagating and teaching religious teachings, which requires practical solutions in the field of media management to realize such a capacity as much as possible. There are several factors involved in producing a promotional or educational package and presenting and succeeding in presenting it, which is to gain the audience's trust and influence in his thoughts; Including people, tools and methods that with more coordination and dynamism of each of these sections can be achieved an attractive, popular and effective medium. Therefore, the package prepared for advertising or training in cyberspace should be attractive; To make it attractive, it is necessary to pay attention to components such as the needs of the audience and entertainment and how to design; This package should also be available on all common Internet receiving devices. In this research, using the principles of media management and ignoring some theoretical issues, practical solutions to achieve an attractive, popular and effective media are presented.

In light of the developments that the world is witnessing today, the student had to ask himself where he is in the midst of these scientific and industrial revolutions. Some countries of the world still adopt traditional teaching methods that do not coincide with modern life and the thinking of the student and teacher in the era of technology and the development in various disciplines, including in various disciplines. The field of religious education. The educational and educational institution is the most important one because of its influential role in shaping the personality of the individual, especially its responsibility in defining the features of religious culture through educational programs and the quality of knowledge and information provided to students that determine their values and their behavioral practices. And because of the immoral issues that are broadcast in the social networks and are far from the Islamic values and principles that some Western countries try to adhere to the Islamic religion, so it was important to use cyber technologies within religious education, whether in the educational stages of the government sector of the sacred government or religious schools. The Muslim student is able to reach the highest degree of knowledge in his specialization on the one hand and to defend the values and principles that instilled in him the Islamic religion on the other hand.

When Hz Musa came with his staff and dropped it, it turned to a snake and swallowed their magic. With a naked eye both sides did the same thing, hence they called Hz Musa a knowledgeable magician or another example, when in Arabia poetry was very popular, prophet Muhammad (pbuh) introduced Quran and no one could produce anything similar or close to it even one chapter (surah). We can go further and analyze story of Hz Yusuf, Hz Isa, Hz Saleh etc. What kind of lesson we learn from these stories? Every prophet came with a weapon similar what falsehood had for the specific region. Evil was fought back with the same “type” of weapon but with one difference, weapons of the prophets were from Allah (swt) and was representing, delivering the truth. We are living in a strange era now, full of false information, data, different theories and philosophies. And to push through this false representatives of evils uses internet, media and social media. Almost everyone has mobile phone nowadays and using them for social media. From time to time they notice some videos or information which is introduced by falsehood to move them out of Islam. Weak (in terms of knowledge and faith) people (most of people) fall into their trap very easily. In one word we seem loosing the game. What to do to change the situation:1. Everyone (absolutely everyone) should bear the responsibility to improve his knowledge on the religion.2. Those who has sufficient knowledge should use every possible ways and especially social media to share their knowledge and deliver the truth.We should stat from ourselves first! We need to get proper education, apply it to our life and then share it with others. Not all the cities has proper Islamic education centers and sometimes there are some barriers which stop us. For example location difference (I live in Baku but Islamic University is in Iran, Qom) and language difference (I speak Azeri, Russian, Turkish and English but don’t speak Farsi or Arabic). In the era of internet, there are virtual study systems which remove location barrier and as those studies are held in different languages it removes language barrier as well. A the moment I study in Al-Mustafa University virtually and in Azeri language. I think everyone who wants to contribute in improvement of Islam in the country should take this opportunity. After we have sufficient knowledge, we should use the same “weapon” as falsehood does (social media) to spread the truth. Here we need to consider lots of things, we need to produce the products accepted by people without resistance, know what they like. For example most of videos viewed the most are within 3 to 5 minutes, use some good background vocal melody, HD recording, cartoon type recording etc. There are some very good channels which I follow (for example “Islamic Pulse”) which does all these stuff in professional manner. As a summary, we need to use the same “weapon” in the same manner to deliver truth against the falsehood. All the praises are due to Allah (swt), due to His will all the good deeds start and finish successfully.

The aim of this study is to explain the deepening aspects of religious education according to the hypertext approach with emphasis on the theory of poststructuralism so that it can contribute to increasing the basic knowledge in this field of knowledge. The research method is of fundamental-applied type while descriptive study is of documentary type. Research shows that metatherapy is not just an alternative medium; Rather, it is the production of dynamic knowledge that can replace hierarchical information transfer. Through metamaterialism, the ability to search intelligently and multiple times is provided, and the interdisciplinary relationships of the texts are strengthened, and dialogue and communication between religious sciences and knowledge become more important. In this regard, hypertext as a new cultural structure with various experiences, the possibility of exchange of views and dialogue between religions, content communication and interdisciplinary studies, fostering a critical approach and the emergence of various teaching methods and problem solving methods in religious education and training.

Achieving a clear pattern in the face of emerging phenomena - always - has been one of the concerns of seminaries, one of which is cyberspace today; In the meantime, one of the best ways to achieve the right way to deal with cyberspace is to follow the example of the Imams (as). By examining the time of the Ahl al-Bayt (as), one can find similar periods and find a suitable solution for this time. Imam Reza's (pbuh) debates in the court of Ma'mun Abbasi are among the moments that can pave the way for this. Imam Khomeini was able to properly manage these debates with the appropriate approach to this event; So much so that Ma'mun saw the continuation of the debate to his detriment. Therefore, the way in which the Prophet encounters and manages in debates can be a model for seminaries in the face of cyberspace; In a way that turns cyberspace from threat to opportunity.

Today, computers and the Internet, as new media technologies, have a high status among human societies and, consequently, in Islamic countries; One of the daily events in the context of the Internet and cyberspace is the extensive communication of users with each other, considering that the principle of communication with non-mahrams in the context of real and tangible space is clearly religious and its limits are clear in sharia; The issue to be considered in this research is to explain the view of jurisprudence regarding the relationship with non-mahrams in the context of cyberspace. However, the purpose of this study is to investigate the need for non-confidential communication in cyberspace. This research, which has been done in a descriptive way, after examining the process of communication and how to interact in the virtual environment, has examined and examined the manner and forms of socialization expressed from the perspective of Imambeh jurisprudence.
