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. Emerging and sophisticated cyberspace and IT ethics in higher education.

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. The present study has tried to explain how to deal with such spaces by first explaining the damage done to culture and religious belief through social networks and its dangers to the younger generation and then by providing appropriate solutions to propagate religion in these spaces. Present and teach young people the correct way to use this space in line with religious culture.

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.

The present study discusses the language nodes of religious missionaries in cyberspace and points out that language nodes are not just stuttering; Rather, it includes some rhetorical and eloquent objections and unfamiliarity with the language of a medium, as well as ignorance of today's audience and their spirits. In this research, first, an explanation of the linguistic node and the quality of its occurrence is given, and then the category of propaganda in the contemporary era with a focus on the role of linguistic nodes in this matter is mentioned; Nodes such as spelling, colloquialism, exaggeration and eloquence, lack of linguistic dimension, lack of age and gender dimension, lack of word dimension, imperfect or defective language, one-dimensional use of media language, having rhetorical language and being free from entertainment. The research findings have led to the conclusion that the way of messaging is as important as the content of the message and just being present in cyberspace is not enough; What matters is how better you are present; Finally, some solutions for untying the knot are presented.

In application of the Almighty’s saying: “And whoever has the best sayings of someone who calls to God and does righteous deeds and said that I am from a Muslim is a Muslim,” and where the methods of calling to God Almighty are not always in a situation that changes in time.

Human civilization has become characterized by the rapid successive change in knowledge and the increase in its technological applications, in terms of quantity and quality, which resulted in a change in the criteria for evaluating societies according to the extent of technological and information advancement and future science to shift from marginal consumer societies to productive societies freed from intellectual property and intellectual property. And the good use of technology. The countries of the whole world - both developed and developing - are striving to develop aspects of living in them, the simulation and the spirit of comprehensive growth among individuals and groups of their citizens, and to consolidate their connection with the accelerating changes that the world lives in. The hypothesis is the spread of the scientific spirit in its theoretical and technological dimensions, and it is a year passed down to the generations of nations. 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.

Difference, agreement, dialogue, controversy, propaganda, truth and other concepts are not transient phenomena and concepts, but rather are products of nations' struggle and religious and political forces influencing the building of societies and establishing relationships. Some of them carry the interests of some group and others arising from the suffering of a nation due to the reality of its life and the other oppressive circumstances you are going through here and from here. The one who carries thought and arms at the same time calls for spreading what the principles and values bear. History has recorded along its length one part of these phenomena and movements have appeared against their reality calling for them to be liberated from what this is going through on the one hand, and on the other hand you see that history depicts for us philosophical and extremist propositions that carry a deviation A dangerous and third thought that carries pornographic cultural ideas under the pretext that it is an artistic luxury that carries intellectual cross-fertilization between different civilizations, diversity and religions at the level of social fusion and calls for unification and freedom from slavery and the elimination of injustice and the development of the matter in our daily world, to see from this cross-fertilization and the emergence of intellectual communication. We have a part of the relations between nations that carry different and varied ideas, especially what appeared in the clash of civilizations between the Christian and Islamic poles and what arose out of these relationships. Affected, influenced, accepted, accepted, pioneering, perpetuated, searched for, championed, and advocated for (self) identity. Therefore, the researcher will try, through his title, to show the nature of the dialogue and its topics that were issued on the electronic space through the vocabulary of controversy, proof, inference, and dialogue with these religions and the civilizations they carry, indicating in that the contradictions, intersections and theories in light of this dialogue. The researcher adopted a statement of the role of cyberspace by introducing two studies that dealt with the introduction in the introduction to the definition in the cyberspace and its ratifications first and clarifying the meaning of dialogue as a concept and its relationship with other concepts that are similar to it. In the first topic, the researcher mentioned the roots and sources of dialogue in the Noble Qur’an and the articles of the Qur’an. Generous two demands. The second topic mentions the role of cyberspace in bringing religions closer and consolidating the pillars of dialogue, and then a conclusion was mentioned in which a number of results were mentioned, the most important of which is that dialogue is a fixed origin in the Islamic civilization and it is one of the principles of the foundations of the noble Qur’an and the foundations of the Prophet’s Sharia and this approach was followed by the prophet’s guardians. From the methods of the prophets and their divine certifications to mankind, the researcher also concluded through the texts that the Islamic Sharia affirmed the necessity of establishing dialogue and commitment to objectivity and not deviating from the subject, as the researcher showed in the manner of the Seal of the Prophets in his dialogue with his companions as well as with the polytheists and the holders of other religions.

The information revolution that the world is witnessing has created new opportunities, not only in the field of business, but also in training and creating new opportunities and bridging distances. Therefore, the present study seeks to exploit the technological revolution and design a computer program; In a way that serves education in general and e-learning in particular, where standards are set and serves university decision-makers to continuously evaluate performance and strive to reduce gaps and exploit mistakes. It also relies on simple, user-friendly, and inexpensive software to achieve better performance, and uses methods such as determining relative weights for standards and benefiting from the Likert scale. The research findings show that the evaluation criteria of e-learning have different weights that are different according to the degree of impact on the educational process, and more accurate criteria can be created and even sub-questions can be given relative weight.

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.
