چکیده

فناوری اطلاعات با تاروپود زندگی اجتماعی درآمیخته است. در این میان تعداد کردارهای دینی‌ای که فناوری اطلاعات در آن‌ها وساطت می‌کند رو به افزایش است. «ذکرگفتن» یکی از کردارهایی است که از طریق برنامه‌های تلفن‌های هوشمند و تحت‌وب نیز ممکن شده است. با این حال وساطت فناوری اطلاعات در ذکرگفتن بدون تغییر جوانب تجربی-کرداری ذکرگفتن ممکن نیست. صلوات‌شمارهای هوشمند در کاربر، کردار و تجربه دینی ذکر، و نیز نوع نگاه به «ذکر»، وساطت می‌کنند و آن‌ها را تغییر می‌دهد. چگونه وساطت فناوری اطلاعات امر دینی، یعنی سویه‌های تجربی-کرداری کنشی چون ذکرگفتن، را تغییر می‌دهد؟ این مقاله می‌کوشد ازچشم‌انداز پساپدیدارشناسی و نظریه کنشگرشبکه، به این پرسش پاسخ دهد.

چکیده [English]

Information technology has been intertwined with the social. That’s why the number of social actions, including religious practices, mediated by information technology is increasing. "Dhikr" is one of the last actions that has become possible through smart phone applications. However, IT mediation in dhikr is not possible without changing the practical-empirical aspects of it. Intelligent salawat-counters mediate and change the user, the practice and religious experience of dhikr, as well as the way of looking at ‘dhikr’. How IT mediation does change the religious? Exploring some instances of existing salawat-counters, this paper tries to answer the question from the perspectives of post-phenomenology and the actor-network theory.
