The Crimes Arising from the Use of Artificial Intelligence from the Perspective of Islamic Jurisprudence and Their Impact on Sustainable Development and the Economy

This research aims to elucidate the reality of crimes arising from the use of artificial intelligence from the perspective of Islamic jurisprudence, their significance, their constitutive elements, their penalties, and their causes for exemption, as well as their impact on sustainable development. The study adopts a descriptive methodology, employing an analytical approach, and has produced several key findings, the most notable of which are as follows: Artificial intelligence is defined as the ability of a machine to simulate the human mind and its processes, such as reasoning, discovery, and the utilisation of past experiences. Crimes committed via artificial intelligence may be perpetrated by a single individual or by multiple individuals. The primary means of proving the crime of using artificial intelligence include testimony, confession, inspection, expert evidence, documentary evidence, circumstantial evidence, and oath-taking. Artificial intelligence is a crucial tool for supporting production, enhancing sustainable development, improving efficiency, and ensuring quality. Although the potential harm caused by artificial intelligence is possible, it remains within narrow bounds due to the availability of precautionary measures, experimental validation, and the necessary equipment. Furthermore, the penalty for this crime is waived upon the death of the convicted person, and its enforcement is suspended; however, any financial penalties, compensations, or costs stipulated in the judgement shall be executed against the deceased’s estate. Finally, it is imperative to develop computational processes through the use of artificial intelligence across all activities in order to support sustainable development and economic growth. Among the key recommendations: Exercise caution when employing artificial intelligence technologies. Link artificial intelligence technologies to sustainable development.
