Analysis of the Basic Principles of Sharia Management in Realizing Ethical and Sustainable Organizational Governance

Abstract

This research is motivated by the increasing complexity of modern organizations, ethical crises, low transparency, and weakening public trust in institutions, which indicate that profit-oriented management alone is inadequate. Sharia management is seen as an alternative because it emphasizes trustworthiness, justice, deliberation, transparency, professionalism, efficiency, and effectiveness as the basis for ethical and sustainable governance. The purpose of this study is to analyze the concept of each principle of sharia management, examine their holistic interrelationships, evaluate their relevance in facing the challenges of modern organizations, and formulate implementative recommendations for various organizational sectors. The research method used is a literature review by examining various scientific sources related to the principles of sharia management, Islamic work ethics, maqasid sharia, governance, and organizational sustainability. The results show that trustworthiness and justice are the foundation of integrity and balance of rights and obligations; deliberation strengthens decision-making participation; transparency increases accountability; professionalism or itqan encourages work quality; while efficiency and effectiveness direct the management of resources for optimality and benefit. The integration of all these principles makes sharia management relevant as a modern governance paradigm that is fair, ethical, adaptive, and sustainable, while at the same time being able to strengthen organizational legitimacy, increase stakeholder trust, balance material and spiritual goals, and contribute to more civilized economic and social development amidst global, digital challenges and changes in contemporary governance today.
