HRMARS - The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) has introduced profound ethical challenges, including privacy violations, algorithmic bias, accountability gaps, and threats to human dignity. This study explores Qur'anic ethical frameworks as a timeless moral foundation for guiding AI development. Employing analytical, inferential, and comparative methods, the research is structured into three chapters: (1) Qur'anic ethical principles; (2) AI ethical challenges; and (3) a proposed Qur'an-based AI ethics model. Findings reveal that Qur'anic values justice (?adl), trustworthiness (am?nah), consultation (sh?r?), responsibility, and human dignity offer a comprehensive framework superior to secular models, which lack transcendent spiritual grounding. The study proposes five regulatory models (data trustworthiness, algorithmic justice, shared responsibility, human dignity protection, consultative governance) rooted in Qur'anic verses and maq??id al-shar??ah. Global frameworks (UNESCO, EU, Google, IEEE) are analyzed, highlighting their limitations. Recommendations include establishing an Islamic AI Ethics Council and integrating Qur'anic ethics into curricula. Qur'anic principles provide flexible, universal guidance balancing innovation with moral responsibility.
