Jihadi Management from the Perspective of the Holy Quran

Management is one of the important and significant eras in Islamic lifestyle. Jihadi management originates from Jihadi culture, and signifies management on the basis of Islamic values. Any conceptual explanation and endeavor to define criteria and attributes of Jihadi management require an in-depth study and contemplation in the holy Quran. Since the word management and its derivatives are not used in the holy Quran, a suitable methodology is to contemplate on words including "obedience", "submission", "subordination" and the word "Jihad" as well as the context of the verses containing those words. Based on the findings of this research, it can be indicate that the main characteristic of Jihad is extending efforts to achieve the desirables by practicing wisdom, science, piety, role model, divine leadership orientation, attachment and reliance on God, and Jihadi management is directed toward using such criteria and attributes along talent, capability and individual and organizational competence and faith of the manger in order to realize its transcendental objective i.e. qualitative and quantitative improvement in human life. Therefore it can be said that the manager plays a fundamental and valuable role in realization of Jihadi management
