“…It has the potential to foster the principles of Bid'a (innovation) and Ijtihad (critical legal thought in pursuit of solutions to new problems) within the organizations' critical decision-making process (Hasan, 2003). Furthermore, the attributes of spiritual business leaders with Islamic ideas may intend to promote resilient businesses and guide the adherents to become united and innovative (De Clercq et al, 2018;Rafiki, 2020). Given the Islamic historical perspective, this sort of spirit has been seen to be the great force to create noble leaders with high dignity or to confront different crisis times in Arabic "akhlakul karima" (Tobroni, 2015).…”

Purpose For Bangladeshi small and medium enterprises (SMEs), the COVID-19 economic shock is remarkable in both its complexity and intensity. SMEs need systemic inspiration to solve the crisis, aligned with a moral and authentic approach that serves both the leader and the follower’s interests. This study aims to conceptualize the innovation-focused success method of SMEs before and after the pandemic to manage the crisis by establishing spiritual leadership based on Islamic perspectives. Design/methodology/approach To discuss the impact of spiritual leadership on innovation-focused SME performance configuration through the lens of a crisis, a comprehensive literature study has been carried out in which over 360 articles are read and reviewed by the authors. It has also established the reliability and validity of literature analysis. Also, a qualitative investigation has been used to support the direction of the study. Findings For a subsequent process of scientific deployment and evaluation of its execution, a new applied strategic innovation-focused SME success configuration through spiritual leadership development is made available. The primary value of this paradigm is the potential to calculate and treat the aspects of spiritual leadership obtained from Islamic ideas. Research limitations/implications Prior analytical or empirical attempts from multiple viewpoints are subsequently needed to inquire about the proposed conceptualization. Practical implications Among the realistic consequences of this analysis is that while a number of leadership paradigms have been embraced by a broad body of leadership studies, the findings indicate that this paper should pay heed to the influential spiritual style of leadership, taking into account Islamic perspectives on the context of crisis. Therefore, Bangladeshi SMEs need to develop and run leadership training programs focused on the Islamic viewpoint of spirituality to encourage the actions of leaders during and after crises. Social implications The legal and moral values of the society would ultimately be upgraded from this conceptualization. Moreover, less corruption in corporate activities would improve the economic prosperity of a nation. It would also contribute to the cross-cultural portrayal of the positive picture of Islam. Originality/value This holistic conceptualization describes the mediating role of strategic innovation practices based on theoretical foundations, which have seldom been done in previous research, between the Islamic model of spiritual leadership and SME success during and after a crisis.

“…Secara umum dalam Islam, pemimpin adalah orang yang harus diikuti dan dipatuhi dan dia harus mengacu pada Al-Qur'an dan Hadits sebagai pedoman sebelum mengambil keputusan. Lebih dari itu, Islam menyatakan ciri-ciri untuk menjadi seorang pemimpin, antara lain harus kaya dengan ilmu dan kekuatan jasmani, dengan itu dapat memimpin dengan sukses (Rafiki, 2020). Dalam memilih pemimpin, rakyat harus melakukannya dengan hati-hati dan serius karena pemimpin harus menjaga agama dan bukan mempermainkannya.…”

“…Dibutuhkan pemimpin yang kuat dan efektif untuk menghasilkan perubahan yang diperlukan untuk kelangsungan hidup dan untuk mengarahkan orang dan organisasi melalui ketidakpastian dan kebingungan perubahan yang cepat (Budhwar & Mellahi, 2010). Oleh karena itu, Khan et al (2010) dan Rafiki (2020) menekankan bahwa prinsip-prinsip manajemen seperti yang dianut oleh Nabi Muhammad dan metode kepemimpinannya tidak boleh diabaikan dalam upaya mengadopsi prinsip-prinsip manajemen dan kepemimpinan Barat. Dan, mereka juga menekankan pentingnya menggemakan pandangan yang sama dengan mengakui kurangnya penelitian tentang perspektif Islam dalam studi manajemen dan menyerukan pendekatan Islam untuk menyelidiki masalah manajemen yang dapat menawarkan perspektif baru.…”

“…Hasil ini merupakan bukti bahwa para peserta betul-betul mengalami peningkatan pemahaman dibanding sebelum mengikuti pelatihan Selain itu, hasil juga menunjukkan bahwa dimensi karakter Sidiq (kejujuran) memiliki skor rata-rata yang paling tinggi (4.48), berarti para siswa LPP UMI Makassar menganggap bahwa kejujuran adalah hal yang paling utama yang harus dimiliki oleh pemimpin dalam konsep Islam. Hasil ini memerkuat pendapat ahli (Budiharto & Himam, 2006;Rafiki, 2020) dan kegiatan PkM sebelumnya (Alawiyah et al, 2014;Ashoer, Pramukti, & Ramdhani, 2019) Untuk memaksimalkan pencapaian tujuan, tim dosen juga memberikan beberapa saran kepada pihak sekolah setelah kegiatan selesai. Tim pengabdi berpendapat, bahwa mengingat pemimpin bertugas mengarahkan jalan (berinisiatif); maka pihak sekolah harus mampu berkolaborasi dengan pemangku kepentingan untuk mewujudkan visi.…”

Purpose: The increase in issues among high school students tends to form their character (unproductively) negatively, and a lack of understanding of religion and leadership is suspected to be contributing. In response to this phenomenon, this program aimed to deliver a leadership development program based on Islamic values to the management of LPP UMI Makassar’s OSIS board. Research Methodology: This internal community service method combines lecture, discussion, and evaluation approaches to achieve the best results. The evaluation technique is collected through questionnaires covering elements pertaining to Islamic leadership based on Nabi Muhammad SAW. This questionnaire was then issued to ascertain their level of comprehension of the material presented. This program attracted 27 students, representing 81.8 percent of the total student council board of SMA LPP UMI, Makassar. Results: The program’s findings indicated that participants better understood the concepts and attributes of leadership in the Islamic paradigm. In addition, the results also showed that the dimension of Sidiq’s character (honesty) has the highest average score (4.48), meaning that the students of LPP UMI Makassar consider honesty as the most important thing that leaders must have in the concept of Islam. Conclusion: This outcome is designed to instill an Islamic leadership attitude in SMA UMI’s student council students, enabling them to contribute positively to Indonesia in the future.

Purpose This paper aims to find out the similarities and differences in meaning between the word “al amanah” and trust. Design/methodology/approach As a qualitative research, a content analysis is used in three stages. First, to elaborate the exegesis of the related Qur’anic verses together with the background narration or asbab un-nuzul if any and the Prophetic hadith where the word amanah is and to analyse and conclude its meanings. Second, the word “trust” is analysed based on the discussions in the literature which will lead to its specific meanings. Third, the concluded meanings of amanah and trust are to be compared to find out their similarities and differences. Findings Amanah and trust have the similar meanings: safe, confident, ability to fulfil the expectation of the person who trust, having competence or expertise to perform duty, deliver commitments, keep promises, work with a full of responsibility, integrity or obedient to moral principles. Differences: Amanah is not only oriented to humanity and responsibility in human’s relations but also, more importantly, to God Allah the Almighty, obeying His commands to make it as ibadah or acts of worshipping Allah the Almighty for maslahah or welfare for society. Practical implications The findings are considered important for companies or organisations. Before doing a commercial transaction or entering a contract or hiring an employee, they must study the quality of the counterparty whether they are capable to do the job as expected or not. In addition, the findings indicate that Islamic teachings concerning muamalat or Islamic rules for social dealings is universal in nature. Originality/value Being the first time to compare the word al amanah to trust, the findings point out the important elements to be evaluated when assigning a certain duty to an agent.
