Mon, 24 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0700

Islamic-based management principles, grounded in the values of the Qur'an and Hadith, include justice, consultation, trustworthiness, accountability, and excellence (ihsan). This study aims to analyze the application of Islamic-based management principles in enhancing teacher professionalism in Islamic schools. The study uses library research with a descriptive-analytical approach to examine various relevant literatures. The results show that the application of Islamic-based management principles significantly contributes to creating an ethical, harmonious work environment that supports holistic teacher competency development, encompassing pedagogical, personality, social, and professional aspects. The principle of justice ensures fair and proportional management, while consultation enhances active teacher participation in decision-making. Trustworthiness and excellence encourage teachers to perform their duties with integrity and the highest quality as an act of worship to Allah. However, challenges such as a lack of understanding of Islamic-based management and limited human resources remain obstacles in its implementation. On the other hand, advances in information technology and increased public awareness of the importance of Islamic values in education offer great opportunities for more effective application. The study concludes that the application of Islamic-based management can be a strategic solution to improving teacher professionalism while contributing to the overall improvement of Islamic education quality. These findings are expected to serve as a reference for school principals, education managers, and stakeholders to optimize the potential of Islamic education in the modern era
