Humans have targets or goals that
they can achieve in their lives. To achieve targets or goals, human effort is
required in the form of tips or methods that must be implemented or mastered.
To be more systematic and focused in determining tips or techniques to
achieve targets or goals required by management. Even though management as
science itself was only known in the mid-19th century, its existence is the
key to success in achieving a target or goal. The method used in this
research is a library or library research approach. They are supported by
descriptive concept analysis. Islamic teachings in the Al-Qur'an and the
Prophet's hadith teach about a directed and orderly life. Al-Qur'an, with all
its integral parts, also functions as a source for determining things,
responding to them, and enlightening oneself about all actions taken. The
management theories and concepts used today are familiar from an Islamic
perspective. Management existed when Allah created the universe and its
contents. Management is a process of skill and expertise in Planning,
Organizing, directing, and supervising each person's efforts to achieve
predetermined goals. There are at least four functions in management:
Planning, Organizing, actualizing, and controlling. The Koran and Hadith are
references and views of life in Muslim life, such as management. Keywords: Al-Qur'an,
Management,
Hadith. |
Humans, as individuals or as part
of a group, definitely have a target or goal to achieve in their lives. Then,
in an effort to achieve the target or goal, action must be taken. One part of
the business is organizing and formulating tips or methods that need to be
implemented or even mastered. Considering the importance of finding and preparing recommendations or
methods to achieve a target or goal, today, a special scientific discipline has
been born to guide humans so that they are more systematic and focused in
finding and formulating tips or methods to achieve targets or goals. This
special science is the science of management.
Management is not something new
in human life. Since the first time humans lived until now, management has always been used to achieve goals
or targets that have been determined in their daily lives. However, management
as a science itself was only recognized in the mid-19th century. At the moment, Management science is very popular and is even
considered and associated as the key to success in achieving a target or goal (Sulhan, 2013).
Likewise, it is related to the discussion of this paper. The management theories and concepts used today are not new from an Islamic perspective. Management existed when Allah created the universe and its contents. Then, if we talk from an Islamic perspective, we will inevitably come into contact with the Qur'an (Machali, 2015).
If management is one discipline, the knowledge used to
reach objectives or targets that have been achieved is determined in daily
life; in the self of a Muslim, all base knowledge ends in the Koran. All kinds
of instructions, including education for the benefit of the world, are in the
Koran. Points are interesting about how management as knowledge is seen from
the perspective, or corner look at the Koran.
Research methods are stages Where the researcher
starts to think about the most appropriate way to find the answer to the
problem that lies within his research. In traditional scientific study, quality
is not only determined by the results or conclusion of the researcher. Still,
it also lies in the research process, which is also closely connected with
suitability and accuracy in the chosen method study. The researcher, this time,
will convey a discussion about management from the perspective of the Qur'an with
the use of approach library research or
study bibliography, as well supported by analysis of
nature concept descriptive.
There is no scientific research that does not involve
the study of literature by researchers. Literature review or library research
is something method used to get information data with facilities available at
the library like books, magazines, documents, notes, stories, and history or
use sources from books or results of research that has been done. There is
previously related to object study. Then, nature analysis and descriptive are
required in the study. This is to explain something matter or related circumstances
with discussion.
����������� Many experts have scientifically
discussed management as something that disciplines knowledge knowledge (Na'im, 2018).
From that, lots of presentations and discussions related to knowledge
management will be produced, and a number of derivative detailed discussions
things related to management. Henry Fayol in Nirva Diana, for example, put
forward that management consists of at least five items, namely planning, organizing, commanding,
coordinating, and controlling.
Meanwhile, George Terry revealed that management arranged Dai's four aspects,
namely: Planning, Organizing, actuating,
and handling. Likewise with definition management proposed by James AF
Stoner, where aspect function management at least own element planning,
organizing, directing and supervising.
����������� From various concept that has been
stated by a number of experts related to function management, the researcher
concluded at least four functions' main necessary direction _ reviewed further.
1.
Planning (Planning)
����������� George R. Terry in Nirva Diana
defines: "Planning is the selecting
and relating of facts and the making and using of assumptions regarding the
future in the visualization and formulation of proposed activities believed
necessary to achieve the desired result ". (Planning is the selection
and search of relationships between facts as well as manufacturing and the use
of assumptions about the future to describe and formulate proposed activities,
which are considered needed to reach desired results). Good Planning will play an important role
in every decision made
because this is the first step in every action. Planning also guides a
person in
carrying out
a process for
an objective certain (Talibo, 2018).
2. Organizing
����������� Activity
organizing
for
Teacher
in
learning
is intended
to determine who will
carry out tasks in accordance with organizing principles by dividing the
responsibilities of each school personnel clearly according to their fields,
subjects, and obligations. Organizing learning means dividing tasks according
to their respective authorities.
3. Actuating
����������� Moving
(actuating) or providing Directions include activities carried out by a guna
initiating and
continuing activities determined by the planning and organizing elements so
that goals can be achieved. Activities include providing instructions or
direction, leading, developing and compensating. A propulsion function is
also available. This
means that someone must be able to provide motivation, advice and guidance within
a group or community to improve enthusiasm and make an effort to reach an
objective so
that it can be achieved
optimally.
4. Supervision
(Controlling)
����������� Supervision is unit purposeful
activities for evaluating as well as seeing is something activities that have
been done walk in accordance with what has worn inside Planning. According to
Stoner, Freeman, and Gilbert, supervision is a process for ensuring that all
activities are carried out in accordance with what has planned. Supervision means providing an assessment of the
implementation of some activities, whether they are in accordance with the intended
objectives or not. So, what is assessed is the process and results
of some actions.
����������� Humans
need various kinds of knowledge in their lives. There are two types of sources
of knowledge, namely naqli and aqli. This nail source is the pillar of most of
the knowledge needed by humans, both in their religion specifically and world
problems in general. (Nugroho & Amsori, 2022). A very authentic source for Muslims, in this case, is the
Qur'an, which is the source of everything,
including knowledge.
����������� Islamic teachings, as stated in the
Qur'an, teach about complete life directed and orderly. Al-Qur'an and hadith,
with all the integrals, can also function as sources in determining something,
responding to, and evaluating the self from all actions taken. That matter is
an example concrete and evident exists leading management to regularity.
Activity aliyah-aliyah, which originates and is
derivative from the Koran and hadith, such as prayer, fasting, pilgrimage and
so on, implementation practice monumental management
(Mesiono & Aziz, 2020).
����������� Theories and concepts of management
use moment. This is Actually No new thing from the perspective of Islam (Riyadi, 2016).
Control That has there is at least when Allah created the natural universe
along with its contents. As The example stated in QS As-Sajadah verse 5, Allah,
through the Qur'an, has conveyed proof practice inside the management universe.
This:

"He regulates all affairs from heaven to earth, then
(affairs) ascend to Him in one day whose length (length) is a thousand years
according to your calculations."
����������� The Koran is believed to contain a
principle base concerning all aspects of the life of man (Ramadani, 2022).
Interpretation of the everlasting Al-Quran becomes important because of one
side's revelation and prophecy in the corner. Look at the timeline, and it has
ended. Meanwhile, on the other hand, the conditions of the times have always
changed along with the development of thought and civilization of man, so it is
still necessary to correct instructions for man. Already, it has become certain
that the Koran references and views life in aspects of Muslims like management
and specialized related control in the Al-Qur'an perspective.
����������� Planning
as a process requires a rational approach towards previously determined goals;
for this reason, Planning requires data and information so that the decisions
made can solve the problems faced. Planning is a
systematic activity process to operate something, work, and achieve the
objective. Between activities, there is forecasting, determining goals,
scheduling, and budgeting.
a. Forecast

�O you who believe! Fear Allah and let everyone pay
attention to what he has done for tomorrow (the afterlife), and fear Allah.
Indeed, Allah is very careful about what you do."
����������� Forecasting
is an attempt to predict or predict conditions and time. In
other words, it is necessary to determine estimation time related to process
activities in achieving targets and goals. In line with the matter mentioned in
Al-Hasyr's letter verse 18, is there the sentence
"� wal tanzhur naphsumma adamant lighted�" (and let every self notice what has he did for day tomorrow. I mean, take
it into account yourself before being punished by Allah. Moreover, look what
you have saved for yourself from charity shall For day
then and when meet with your Rabb.
����������� Allah implicitly through the Qur'an
in Al Hasyr's letter verse 18 so that humans make
estimations or forecasts in their lives with methods to do calculations or
conclusions based on information on facts that have been known. So, that
connection in do planning will add efficiency and effectiveness in deciding on
action at the beginning of the activity or in the middle of the movement.
b.
Goal
Setting
![]()
"And I did not create jinn and humans except so that they
would serve Me.�
����������� Determination objective means doing
an activity For something you want to be achieved
through an implementation process in the form of an action or activity. Related
to the determination objective in the interpretation of Mishbah
Surah Az-Zariyat, verse 56 has an explanation, " I " (God) did not create them (humans)
but so that the aim
or end of their activities is to worship Me. The
words "... li ya'budu u
n ..." in the verse above are named by experts in the Samuel
'aqibah language, which means the end or impact and consequence of something
(Shihab, 2017).
����������� In
addition, Allah has introduced the concept of management in terms of Planning
in the form of goal setting, which is contained in Surah Az-Zariyat verse 56,
which is a fragment of a hadith by Ali bin Abi Thalhah narrated from Ibn
'Abbas: "Meaning, but so that they will submit to worship to- Me, whether
voluntarily or forced. While Ibn Juraij said: "namely, so that they know
Me. " This form of goal setting will make the planning process
more focused, making all forms of activity focus on a predetermined and agreed
end point.
c. Scheduling

"
Furthermore, when you
have finished (your) prayer, remember Allah when you stand, when you sit and
when you lie down. Then, when you feel safe, then perform the prayer (as
usual). Indeed, prayer is a time-determined obligation for those who believe . "
����������� Mauqutaa said, taken from the word waqt (time). In
terms of this word, language is used in the sense of final limit chance or
opportunity To finish One work. Every Salat has time
in the feeling that there was a time when someone must finish it. When that
time passed, then basically time passed to Salat That.
����������� Temporary That in A hadith conveyed
by the Prophet: Has
told us Suraij bin Nu'man Has told us Husyaim he said, has told us Daud bin Abu
Hind he said, has told me Abu Harb bin Abul Aswad from Fadlalah al-Laitsi he
said; I went to Prophet Muhammad and finally embraced Islam. Then he taught me so he taught me
the five daily prayers and their times. So I said to him, "Indeed, these
times are busy. Therefore, order me something comprehensive (of value)."
So he said to me, "If you are really busy, then do not let yourself be
busier than two times." I asked, "What is the second time?" he
answered, "namely, the Fajr Prayer and the Asr Prayer" (HR. Ahmad No.
18251) (Alfansury et al., 2022).
����������� There are times for prayers and
various forms of worship that Islam stipulates exist distribution technical
regarding time or time. This matter teaches people to have short and long plan
periods, as well as to finish every plan in time according to the specified
time and schedule. Implicit in the Koran is the necessity of scheduling and
determining time for an activity so that the whole process of Planning reaches
an objective systematic.
d. Budgeting

�And
people who if earn a living, they No excessive, and not (also) stingy, and is
He mid between both of them."
����������� Yusrifu said, taken from the word scarf,
that it goes beyond reasonable limits in accordance with conditions of living
and being given livelihood, or in anything else fits with circumstances owner
finance (Firdausy & Syamhadi, 2023).
Even if you are rich, you will be despicable If you give a child small to
exceed his needs. On the other hand, the same vile If give adults in need more
Lots equalized as much giving to the child.
����������� Yaqturuu said is against from yusrifu u.
He needs to be more from what can given
in accordance with the circumstances of the giver and recipient. Qowaaman said it
means fair, moderate and mid. Through recommendation this, Allah swt. and the Messenger of Allah accompanied him man for can
look after his wealth, no waste so that finished, however in same time No hold
it the same very so that sacrifice interest personal, family, or who needs it.
Look after something good, including treasure, so treasure that is always
available and sustainable is religious orders.
����������� Related Planning in matters of
operating function management and being wise in budget expenses are also points
in the implementation stage of good Planning. A budget that has an appropriate
target can help mobilization in reaching specified goals. So
from that, we really need To determine and adapt the budget with activities to
be executed. Use the principle cowman, which means fair, moderate and mid in formulating or
determining a budget. Not too much either narrow available budget hinders the management
process.
����������� Represents part in management, in
the form of activity distribution duties and authority planned work For
resolving a human, fine-bye matter connection to an activity group or
individual (Syahputra & Herviana, 2021).
Organizing is also defined as activity distribution tasks, delegating
authority, and establishing desired activity done throughout the hierarchy
organization (Syuhudi & Mahmud, 2023).
In terms of this is what Allah said road Surah Az- Zukhruf
verse 32 is related to Organizing:

"Do those people want to share the grace of your Lord, O
Muhammad, so that they can choose prophets for the people they want? No, We are
the ones who divide the living among them, so that We make some of them rich
and the rest poor".
����������� Ibn Ka
ts Ir, in his interpretation of this verse, explains that Allah gives levels to
His creatures regarding the wealth, reason, and understanding given to them, as
well as various physical and spiritual powers. The words nahnu qosamnaa bainahum mai`syatahum fil hayaatiddunyaa have
Meaning. We have determined between
them their means of livelihood in this worldly life so that some of them can
use others. One opinion says that Meaning is a
partial order. They use some others are deep various charity, because part
needs some others. That is what Assuddi said. While
Qatadah and Adh-Dhahhak said in part they own others,
meaning This return to the first.
����������� Meanwhile,
in the Tafsir Al-Mishbah, nahnu qosamnaa
bainahum mai`syatahum fil hayaatiddunyaa, this sentence has an explanation:
We (Allah) have divided through the establishment of laws that have been
established between them and based on Our wisdom, both general and specific, We
have divided -for their means of subsistence in worldly life because they
cannot do it themselves. We have raised some of them in wealth, knowledge,
strength and so on above others by several levels so that some of them can use
others so that they can help each other in meeting their daily needs because
each of them needs each other to find and organize their lives.
����������� Then
Allah said, wa rahmatu rabbika khoirum
mimmaa yajmau`n. The mercy of your Lord is better than what they collect.
That is, Allah's mercy to His creatures is better for them than what they have
in the form of material possessions and the pleasures of worldly life.
����������� The
series of holy verses from the Qur'an that have been explained in the previous
paragraph implies that organizations as places of human gathering consisting of
behaviour, customs, habits and norms cannot be denied that will form a vision,
mission, and goals to be achieved by the organization. The. Organizing
also means Sharing task One with others as form linkages in matter each other
required to achieve its specified goals. Therefore, in an effort to accomplish these achievements, organizations
need values that can be used as guidelines, characteristics, and internal
reference activity.
With clarity regarding these matters, the organization will determine the best strategies and
ways to achieve goals (Yuni & Azizah, 2022).
����������� Actuating is the process of carrying out activities in order to
move group members in such a way that they want to achieve the goals,
objectives, and targets that have been set. In Arabic, the word actuating is interpreted as attach, which also means directing. The
Qur'an has explained many keywords, namely, the process of mobilizing or
directing human resources to achieve common goals
(Wisudaningsih, 2018). For example, in Al-Qur'an surah At-Taubah verse 122:

"
It is not appropriate
for all believers to go (to war). Why not leave some people from each group
among them to deepen their knowledge of religion and to warn their people when
they return to it, so that they can guard themselves."
����������� The
person who will give a warning (leader) to his people, community, or group must
prepare to the maximum his knowledge and abilities; in other words, he must
have competence.
����������� The word
competence in the Koran "
�" is interpreted by Al-Thabary: the person who is going to give a
warning must listen to everything that is in his community and pay attention to
everything that Allah has revealed. The phrase "Fiqh" also means
knowing or understanding what one is doing. People who know are called
"faqiih". This verse emphasizes that leaders, before going into the
field to give warnings, must first enrich themselves with knowledge and
practice. The explanation in the At-Taubah letter verse 122 is the element direction and mobilization.

�Indeed, we have truly created man and know what he whispers. We
are closer to him than his jugular vein.�
����������� Allah,
in the Qur'an Surah Qaf verse 16, tells about His power over humanity, that He
is their creator, His knowledge covers all the problems of life, and He even
knows what is whispered by the hearts of Adam's children and grandchildren,
both in the form of goodness and badness. In an authentic hadith, it has been
confirmed by the Messenger of Allah, who said: "Indeed, Allah Ta'ala
forgives what the hearts of my ummah whisper as long as they do not say or do
it."
����������� Whereas sentence wa nahnu acrobat divine min habit warid (And We are nearer to her than tendon liberty)
meaning, His Angels are closer to man than tendon his neck Alone. The person
who interprets by a-will that's near That is God's knowledge, and then He tries
not to must exist upstream or Ittihad (the belief that Allah occupies the
corpse of somebody). This verse is form action supervision where Allah is the
Almighty Who regulates (management all over creatures and their creations) and
does leadership as form concrete function management.
Management is a process in the
form of abilities and skills in Planning, organizing, directing and supervising
each person's efforts in order to achieve predetermined goals.
Experts have discussed management
scientifically and as a scientific discipline. From the many presentations and
discussions related to management science, several derivative talks have been
produced that explain matters related to management. One of them is regarding
management functions.
Henry Fayol in Nirva Diana, for
example, stated that there are five management functions, namely planning, Organizing, commanding,
coordinating, and controlling. Meanwhile, George Terry revealed. There are four
functions in management, namely,
Planning, Organizing, actualizing, and handling. Likewise, the definition of
management put forward by James AF Stoner is that the management function
aspect has at least four functions: Planning, organizing, directing and
supervising.
From the various concepts that
have been put forward by several experts relating to management functions, the
author concludes that there are at least four management functions, namely,
planning, organizing, directing and supervising.
The Koran is believed to contain a principle
base concerning all aspects of life, man. Interpretation of the Koran and
Hadith have always done. This matter is important because of one side's
revelation and prophecy in the corner. Look at the timeline; it has ended.
Meanwhile, on the other hand, the conditions of the times have always changed
along with the development of thought and civilization man, so it is still
necessary to have correct instructions _ for man. It has already become a
certainty that the Koran became a reference and viewed life in aspects of
Muslims like management.
