Abstract :

The purpose of this article is to explain the policies and criteria that the religion of Islam and the jurisprudence of the Qur'an in the way of transmitting content in the mass media is seen as mandatory propositions and considers them a necessity of religious communication in the mass media. The Qur'an is quoted in the media and is briefly as follows: A. The free flow of information is not prohibited, except in cases where an explicit prohibition has been received from the Holy Shari'a or an expedient reason arises from a secondary ruling prohibiting freedom of information and the obligation to censor. B- Justice in information means equality between people in receiving information and prohibition of discrimination in providing information service to the audience of news media are other specific policies in the view of the Shari'a. C- Activation of the information system is another policy that has a positive dimension and a current aspect. According to this policy, the information system should not be indifferent to what is happening in society and should deal with unhealthy news flows and put service to the goals of the Islamic system on its agenda.
