Abstract
The era of digital technology 4.0 and literacy today has changed how people think and behave on anything, including on theological texts where people now are having fewer interests. The use of these texts as a reference and a learning media has been now declining. Moreover, people have no attention to theological texts for they are now prone to superficial readings on spiritual values. This article examines the use of Islamic theological texts by discussing and bringing back some of the texts through literacy. The texts include SeratCebolek, Meurukon, Rabbani Wahid’s poems, and PeuratebAneuk. Using an interdisciplinary approach, this article is an attempt to shed light on the contents and meanings in the texts in order to change the paradigm of society, which is logic, systematic, and based on a definite creed. This article argued that these sacred texts contain theological elements full of meanings and substantial values capable of fortifying the readers against things contrary to religious and state laws. In addition, the nuances, the atmosphere, and the conflicts presented in the texts enable to calm down the readers because the conveyed messages are driving the soul to the Divine Rabbi. Therefore, reviving the “spirits” of the texts in this digital era through digitization and literacy can actualize theology that once ever existed.
