Abstract

Perkembangan teknologi digital telah mentransformasikan kehidupan manusia secara signifikan dalam aspek komunikasi, pendidikan dan interaksi sosial. Walaupun teknologi meningkatkan akses maklumat dan kecekapan komunikasi, penggunaan secara berlebihan dan tidak terkawal telah dikaitkan dengan peningkatan tekanan emosi, kebimbangan, kemurungan dan ketagihan media sosial. Kebanyakan kajian terdahulu menumpukan kepada pendekatan psikologi dan sosiologi dalam menjelaskan fenomena ini tanpa mengintegrasikan kerangka spiritual Islam secara sistematik. Oleh itu, kajian ini bertujuan menganalisis kesan penggunaan teknologi terhadap kesihatan mental serta membangunkan satu kerangka konseptual berasaskan pendekatan dakwah Islam yang diperkukuh melalui prinsip Maqasid Syariah. Kajian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif berbentuk analisis kandungan terhadap artikel jurnal berindeks dan literatur berkaitan psikologi digital serta psikoterapi Islam. Dapatan menunjukkan bahawa konsep wasatiyyah, i’tidal dan mujahadah al-nafs berfungsi sebagai mekanisme regulasi dalaman dalam memelihara keseimbangan emosi dan pemeliharaan akal (hifz al-‘aql). Kajian ini menyumbang kepada pembangunan model integratif antara literasi digital dan pendidikan berasaskan nilai Islam dalam menangani cabaran kesihatan mental era digital.

The rapid development of digital technology has significantly transformed human life in the areas of communication, education, and social interaction. While technology enhances access to information and improves communication efficiency, excessive and uncontrolled usage has been associated with increased emotional stress, anxiety, depression, and social media addiction. Most previous studies have focused on psychological and sociological approaches in explaining this phenomenon without systematically integrating an Islamic spiritual framework. Therefore, this study aims to analyse the impact of technology use on mental health and to develop a conceptual framework based on an Islamic da‘wah approach strengthened by the principles of Maqasid al-Shariah. This study adopts a qualitative approach using content analysis of indexed journal articles and relevant literature on digital psychology and Islamic psychotherapy. The findings indicate that the concepts of wasatiyyah (moderation), i‘tidal (balance), and mujahadah al-nafs (self-discipline) function as internal regulatory mechanisms in preserving emotional stability and safeguarding the intellect (hifz al-‘aql). This study contributes to the development of an integrative model that combines digital literacy and value-based Islamic education in addressing mental health challenges in the digital era.
