The central research question of this study is how the concept of “mobility” in the Qur’an can be examined in light of contemporary mobility theories. Drawing on the theoretical framework of New Mobilities Studies, the study seeks to show how sacred texts can broaden the conceptual horizons of modern mobility scholarship. Methodologically, the research is based on a qualitative analysis of Qur’anic verses: relevant passages concerning movement were identified, interpreted in light of classical Qur’anic commentaries, and then analyzed using key concepts from mobility studies. The analytical framework of John Cresswell regarding the dimensions of movement, together with Mimi Sheller’s concept of mobility justice, provides the interpretive basis for the analysis. The findings identify five principal forms of mobility within the Qur’anic worldview: physical movement and journeying on earth as a means of knowledge; hijrah as an identity‑transforming mobility; spiritual movement toward proximity to God; the historical and social movement of communities within the framework of divine patterns (sunan); and cosmic movement as a fundamental order of the universe. Overall, the study suggests that the Qur’an conceptualizes mobility not merely as spatial displacement but as a multilayered organizing structure within human experience and the broader order of existence.
