Drawing on Islamic principles and leveraging blockchain technology, this framework monitors an AI's internal processes ("thoughts"), planned actions ("intentions"), and executed actions to ensure comprehensive accountability. Just as the angels Raqib and Atid maintain a celestial record for divine judgment, this framework systematically documents an AI's operations, generating an unalterable history of its activity. To guarantee the integrity and transparency of this data, it is suggested that these logs be secured on a blockchain. This record is preserved for a metaphorical "Day of Judgment"-an evaluation process that occurs at the end of the AI's operational life, ensuring accountability even after the AI is no longer functional. By analyzing the AI's data, the system can proactively identify potential ethical violations, provide feedback, and promote continuous learning. This approach offers a more comprehensive way to ensure responsible AI development. The framework addresses challenges in defining "intention" for AI and balancing internal monitoring with AI autonomy, providing a promising path towards building ethical and responsible AI systems aligned with human values Supplementary Material File (aiethicislam.pdf) Download 432.11 KB Information & Authors Information Version history V1 Version 1 11 March 2025 Copyright This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License Keywords ai death ai fear ai islamic value block chain consciousness ethical ai raqib and atid Authors Affiliations MUHAMMAD SUKRI RAMLI 0009-0003-7206-7706 [email protected] View all articles by this author Muhammad Sukri Asia School of Business Kuala Lumpur View all articles by this author Bin Ramli Asia School of Business Kuala Lumpur View all articles by this author Metrics & Citations Metrics Article Usage 248 views 134 downloads .FvxKWukQNSOunydq8rnd { width: 100px; } Citations Download citation MUHAMMAD SUKRI RAMLI, Muhammad Sukri, Bin Ramli.
