About

Hamza Abed Al-Karim Hammad is a pioneering scholar at the intersection of artificial intelligence, robotics, and Islamic jurisprudence. His research focuses on the ethical and legal dimensions of emerging technologies, particularly concerning human intimacy and machine interaction. Hammad’s most notable contribution is his groundbreaking 2025 paper, "Artificial Intimacy and Islamic Jurisprudence: Legal and Ethical Perspectives on Sex Robots," which examines the implications of sex robots as alternatives to natural human relationships through the lens of Islamic law. This work, already garnering citations, marks a significant step in addressing the moral and religious questions posed by AI-driven companionship. By bridging contemporary technological debates with classical legal frameworks, Hammad offers a unique perspective on how Islamic ethics can guide the development of intimate robotics. His scholarship not only highlights the urgent need for regulatory and theological discourse but also positions him as a leading voice in the emerging field of AI ethics within Islamic studies. For students and researchers, Hammad’s work provides a vital foundation for understanding the complex interplay between faith, technology, and human relationships in the 21st century.
