| dc.description.abstract | Islam is a comprehensive religion that covers all aspects of
life including ethics and morality. Islam lays rules,
principles and standards directly or indirectly in all
religious and human dealings. It sets code of ethics that
govern all types of management which include:
trustworthy, honesty, competence and accountability, etc.
These principles ensure that man manages the resources
that Allah bestowed upon him based on Shariah. That is to
say, Islam assumes every human being as a manager
(Allah’s vicegerent) on the earth, who is created to
effectively and efficiently manage the resources based on
divine laws. At the same time, Allah makes everyone
accountable on how he/she uses the resources that are
bestowed upon him. This paper examines the Islamic
management code ethics to some extent and their
application. It also discusses evolution of management in
general likewise the management practices from Islamic
point of view. The paper is qualitative research based,
whereby the data are drawn from library items such as
books, journals, Islamic literature, relevant websites and others. The research shows that Allah appoints man to be
vicegerent on the earth and lays down some principles and
standards as guidance on how to perform his duty, which
he will be held accountable for and bear its consequences. | en_US |
