Abstract

This research is motivated by the emergence of various Islamic manifestations during the organization of the Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup, which attracted the attention of international communities and media. This phenomenon indicates that global sporting events function not only as entertainment and athletic competition, but also as spaces for representing cultural identity and religious values. The study aims to describe the Islamic manifestations that appeared during the Qatar 2022 World Cup, focusing on several aspects, namely the recitation of Qur’anic verses during the opening ceremony, the display of Prophetic traditions in public spaces, the use of QR Codes to introduce Islam, the provision of prayer areas inside stadiums, da‘wah activities in guest service centers, and the policy prohibiting alcoholic beverages around stadiums. This study employs a qualitative method with a documentation approach through collecting data from official sources, scientific articles, news reports, and digital documentation related to the research object. The findings show that these manifestations represented efforts to introduce Islamic values openly, modernly, and communicatively to the global public. The study concludes that the Qatar 2022 World Cup became an important medium for presenting Islamic identity in the international sphere through cultural approaches, public services, and religious symbols.
