Abstract: The Qur’an, as a timeless spiritual and intellectual guide, offers profound insights into the conceptualization of futures, transcending conventional theological interpretations. This paper examines Qur’anic visions of futures through the lens of futures studies, emphasizing its pluralistic and transformative scenarios, the power of Qur’anic narrations and (re) conceptualisation of the idea of change. By exploring eschatological dimensions and pragmatical guidance for ethical and preferable futures, the analysis reveals the Qur’an’s role as a dynamic framework for envisioning and constructing a just and meaningful future. The study highlights the Qur’an’s emphasis on human responsibility, proactive engagement, and adaptability, positioning it as a foundational text for future-oriented thought and action.
