Philosophy addresses all facet of human existence, both our theoretical investigations and real-world issues. Applied philosophy includes media ethics. The impact of the media on human society is enormous. One instrument that has the power to alter a person's or a society's perspective is the media. Truth and Accuracy, Independence, Fairness and impartiality, Humanity, Accountability, and other fundamental ethical values must be upheld by the media. As a result, ethical concerns about religious organizations and their use of the media inevitably surface: are these organizations adhering to the ethical guidelines set forth by the media, or are they disregarding them? Nowadays, every organization uses the media as one of the tools to promote their own ideas and beliefs and especially social media. What views do religious organizations have on media ethics in relation to this question? In addressing all of these issues, I have selected Islam as a peacemaker since it would be too lengthy to address media ethics from the viewpoint of all other religions in this debate. Islam is an all-encompassing way of life, not merely a religion. All facets of human life are treated in Islam, just as philosophy either directly or indirectly addresses the totality of a human being. This essay will address media ethics and Islam in the context of practical ethics, that is, the guidelines provided by Islam for media ethics. The relationship between the media and Islam is very old. Because the method of propagation was chosen as the focal point of the Islamic religion, although at first it was carried out in a secret manner, later the religion was openly propagated. At present, there is wrong information about Islam spreading. Islam is mainly propagated by the media, and the media is largely responsible for this. The media should convey the correct message of Islam to the masses. Broad interpretations of Islam often lead to misinterpretations. There are numerous divisions within the "Islam". Since the newspaper is a classroom for learning for everyone, regardless of class, profession, or party, it is important to present the real explanation of the fundamentals of Islam here. Social media is a platform that allows users to freely express their opinions, often leading to the violation of ethical principles. This research paper primarily focuses on social media ethics, with a specific reference to Islam.
