This study provides a critical analysis of transhumanism—a movement that seeks to enhance human capacities through advanced technologies such as artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and genetics. Despite the fact that it is predicated on the objective of surmounting fundamental human limitations such as ageing and disease, the philosophy gives rise to some profound ethical and spiritual concerns with regard to human value, identity, and purpose. The present study draws parallels between the transhumanist conception of humanity and the Qur’anic vision, thereby revealing a fundamental tension between technological transcendence and divine sovereignty. The Qur’an places significant emphasis on human dignity, moral responsibility, and the divine purpose of existence, issuing warnings against attempts to surpass human boundaries through artificial means. Article’s argument is that the transhumanist pursuit of immortality and technological superiority by transhumanists is incompatible with the Qur’anic perspective of humility, dependence on God, and moral accountability. Additionally, it offers a critical perspective on cautions against the dehumanizing tendencies within transhumanism, such as the perception of humans as replaceable or inferior to machines. The study ultimately advocates for a balanced perspective that values technological progress while preserving ethical and spiritual integrity. It is suggested that Islamic teachings provide a coherent framework for confronting the moral and existential challenges of an increasingly technological age.
