Logic, Law, and Lexicon: The AI Convergence in Emerging Societies

Abstract

Background Emerging societies experience a special dilemma, namely, the need to incorporate Artificial Intelligence (AI) into normative frameworks in which law and ethics are closely intertwined with religious and linguistic customs. The paper examines Algorithmic Logic, scriptural Lexicon (Quran and Hadith) and the traditional Law (Fiqh).

Purposes: The study assesses the formulation of AI-based reasoning in accordance with the Islamic principles of evidentiary. It evaluates Big Language Models (LLMs) in the application of exegesis and Hadith verification of the Quran and seeks to maintain scholarly integrity by discussing the more comprehensive effect of AI on the humanities.

Procedure: A comparative analysis is undertaken interdisciplinarily, comparing the world standards (IEEE/EU) and the Maqasid al- Shari’ah. The Lexicon part is a qualitative evaluation of AI-generated interpretations of the classical work, and the Law part evaluates the case studies of AI integration into the judicial system.

Findings Results The results show that AI offers unmatched efficiency in data processing and Hadith authentication, but has a critical limitation due to the lack of metaphorical richness of the Arabic lexicon (so-called semantic gap). It is also true that AI has weaknesses in Ijtihad (independent reasoning), but a HH hybrid model promises to help in making judicial proceedings faster without losing accountability.

Conclusion: The way ahead for new societies is to move to Digital Ijtihad, i.e., the scheme in which the AI does not substitute the human judgment but increases it. To have a culturally based digital future, it is critical to establish localized forms of governance that are based on global technology standards and cultural customs.
