Abstract

Objectives: The study aims to explore various cybercrimes committed using deepfake technology, clarify the newly introduced disciplinary punishments for these crimes, and highlight the jurisprudential controls for these punishments.

Methods: The study employed an inductive, analytical, and deductive approach. First, examining jurisprudential and legal texts, analyzing their content, and then deducing jurisprudential controls for disciplinary punishments related to deepfake crimes.

Results: The analysis identified various cybercrimes facilitated by deepfake technology. These include identity theft, money laundering, support for terrorism, falsification of elections, documents, and files, as well as defamation, honor crimes, and electronic slander. Additionally, the study revealed new disciplinary measures for these offenses, such as social ostracism, electronic defamation, mandatory community service, and the use of electronic monitoring devices. Islamic law has established jurisprudential frameworks and guidelines for these disciplinary measures, ensuring their implementation is regulated and free from arbitrariness.

Conclusions: Developing a systematic preventative media strategy is crucial. The strategy should ideally utilize various media outlets to raise awareness about the concept of deep fakes and the associated risks and consequences. Electronic detection applications are also required.
