About
Amily Fikry is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of robotics, healthcare, and Islamic jurisprudence. Her work primarily focuses on the deployment of humanoid and social assistive robots in therapeutic settings, particularly for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and in healthcare service delivery. Fikry’s major contributions include demonstrating the cost-benefit potential of humanoid robots for autism therapy in Malaysia, and critically, she has advanced the novel field of *Fiqh Robotic*—integrating artificial intelligence with Maqasid Shariah to ensure that robotic services and social activities align with Islamic ethical principles. Her most cited work, “When Contactless Service Matters,” (2023) addresses the urgent need for robotic services in the healthcare sector during the COVID-19 pandemic, highlighting the critical role of technology in public health emergencies. With a growing citation footprint, Fikry’s research is notable for bridging technical innovation with cultural and religious frameworks, offering a unique perspective on the ethical deployment of AI in human care. Her work is essential reading for researchers exploring culturally sensitive, responsible robotics in therapy and service sectors.
