“…Al-Quran mentions, Muslims are said to be ummatan wasatan [27]. Economic and political movements since the last quarter century have facilitated the revival of religions that cross national borders and pose new challenges for the nation [28] The Islamic revolution in Iran that occurred in 1979 changed the lives of women in a former westernized country into an Islamic state of Iran [29]. The emergence of a conservative Islamist ideology that tends to be more radical, its emergence began with the collapse of the New Order regime [30].…”

Religious moderation is very important. So that there will always be peace, religious moderation is needed in a pluralistic society. In the midst of the threat of radicalism, which is spreading rapidly and can be dangerous if this understanding of radicalism is embraced by many people, Religious moderation is a religious attitude that takes a fair attitude, is not inclined to be radical, and is not inclined to liberalism. All the arguments in Islam tend to always take a middle attitude, which means balanced. The purpose of this study is to understand and describe religious moderation to prevent the entry of radicalism and liberalism. The results of this literature research show that understanding and applying religious moderation can prevent and protect against being influenced by radicalism and liberalism. Religious moderation will create tolerance, peace and harmony between religious communities. To prevent acts of radicalism and extremism, an understanding of religious moderation is needed that is correct and in accordance with the Al-Qur'an and Al-Hadits

“…At the peak of the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, there were difficulties in movement around cities and for fear of contamination from taxi drivers, and thus transport service models composed of autonomous vehicles have become more relevant within the physical space [45]. There are concerns that the deployment of the autonomous vehicles during the second and third waves of the COVID-19 pandemic will increase social isolation [15,46]. On the contrary, this would rather result in a social gathering, as people can drive through shopping malls and attend events while in their autonomous vehicles.…”

COVID-19 Pandemic Waves: 4IR Technology Utilisation in Multi-Sector Economy

In this paper, we reviewed the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) technologies applied to waves of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19). COVID-19 is an existential threat that has resulted in an unprecedented loss of lives, disruption of flight schedules, shutdown of businesses and much more. Though several researchers have highlighted the enormous benefits of 4IR technologies in containing the COVID-19 pandemic, the recent waves of the pandemic call for a thorough review of these technological interventions. The cyber-physical space has had its share of the COVID-19 pandemic effect, and through this review, we highlight the salient issues to help policy formulation towards managing the impact of subsequent COVID-19 waves within such environments. Hence, the purpose of this paper is to review the application of 4IR technologies during the COVID-19 pandemic waves and to highlight their shortcomings. Recent research articles were sourced from an online repository and thoroughly reviewed to highlight 4IR technology applications, innovations, shortcomings and multi-sector challenges. The outcome of this review indicates that the second wave of the pandemic resulted in a lower proportion of patients requiring invasive mechanical ventilation and a lower rate of thrombotic events. In addition, it was revealed that the delay between ICU admissions and tracheal intubation was longer in the second wave in the health care sector. Again, the review suggests that 4IR technologies have been utilized across all the sectors including education, businesses, society, manufacturing, healthcare, agriculture and mining. Businesses have revised their service delivery models to include 4IR technologies and avoid physical contacts. In society, digital certificates, among other digital platforms, have been utilized to assist with the movements of persons who have been vaccinated. Manufacturing concerns have also utilized robots in manufacturing to reduce human-to-human physical contact. The mining sector has automated their work processes, utilising smart boots to prevent infection, smart health bands and smart disinfection tunnels or walkthrough sanitization gates in the mining work environment. However, the identified challenges of implementing 4IR technologies include low-skilled workers, data privacy issues, data analysis poverty, data management issues and many more. The boom in 4IR technologies calls for intense legislation on sweeping data privacy for regulated tech companies. These findings hold salient implications for policy formulation towards tackling future pandemic outbreaks.

“…Once autonomous vehicles are deployed, millions of parents will not take their children to and from school. In addition, friends and couples who had their relationships strengthened by carpooling, as well as women in various countries around the world who had advanced their quality of life by working in driver professions, will no longer be necessary ( Sattari, 2020 ). Some celebrate, in addition to the royalty holders of these technologies, advantages such as being able to drink without the fear of being stopped by police officers.…”

The global pandemic caused by the new coronavirus, COVID 19, has disrupted the lives of most people on the planet. The magnitude of such disruption can only be compared to those caused by World War II. Experts suggest that in order to better evaluate this situation, it should be divided into two waves. The first wave being associated with health issues and the second one with economic issues. This article suggests that this global pandemic is fostering yet a third wave, which in the long run can be much more impactful in our lives than the first two. This third wave consists on accelerating the implantation process of the fourth industrial revolution. This article is divided into sections with the physical, digital and biological spheres of the fourth industrial revolution, as well as the dimensions of sustainability and other important considerations, in order to better demonstrate the emergence of a new era catalyzed by a virus.
