About
Dr. Saheed Abdullahi Busari is a pioneering scholar at the intersection of Islamic jurisprudence and emerging technologies. His primary research areas include Islamic legal theory (usul al-fiqh), artificial intelligence ethics, and the philosophy of law. Dr. Busari’s most significant contribution is his groundbreaking analysis of the legal capacity (al-ahliyyah) of artificial intelligence from an Islamic jurisprudential perspective—a novel inquiry that bridges classical Islamic legal concepts with contemporary debates on artificial personhood. His 2024 paper on this topic has already garnered 6 citations, signaling its growing influence in both Islamic studies and AI ethics circles. By examining whether AI can hold rights, duties, and responsibilities akin to natural or legal persons, Dr. Busari challenges scholars to rethink foundational principles of Islamic law in the digital age. His work is notable for its rigorous integration of traditional jurisprudential sources with modern technological realities, making him a leading voice in the emerging field of Islamic AI ethics. For students and researchers, Dr. Busari’s scholarship offers a vital framework for understanding how classical legal systems can adapt to unprecedented technological transformations.
