It is man to be educated on the entire development process by integrating sosial development, economic development and environmental conservation and protection.

At present, only 15.9% of businesses are owned by them. This is far way behind of what has the Government of Malaysia targeted in 2011 that is 30%. The finalized questionnaires were distributed by post to 250 Muslim women entrepreneurs in Malaysian SMEs by using simple random sampling technique. The response rate is 44% which is good. It is found out that the most frequent types of challenges faced by the respondents are lack of finance (79.2%), lack of demand (50.9%) and location problem (50.9%). Meanwhile, their proposed solutions to the challenges are a mix of observing their religion (to give tithe and alms, to do recommendatory prayers and to hire orphans), doing business (to have good relationship with customers, businesswomen organizations, suppliers, competitors and workers, to obtain more information on business development and personal (to apply work life balance).

Responden terdiri daripada pegawai pengurusan dan professional di JKDM. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa faktor-faktor demografi keseluruhannya tidak mempunyai hubungan signifikan dan positif dengan kriteria profesionalisme Islam. Ini menunjukkan faktor-faktor demografi setiap responden seperti faktor tahap pendidikan dan jawatan langsung tidak memberi kesan kepada kriteria profesionalisme Islam yang ada dalam diri setiap warga kerja JKDM. Daripada analisis ini jelas memberi gambaran bahawa pengamalan etika profesionalisme Islam sangat mengutamakan aspek nilai-nilai dalaman (hati) seseorang individu.Gabung jalin kedua-dua aspek dalaman (hati) dengan aspek luaran (fizikal) manusia sangatlah diperlukan bagi memperkasakan budaya kerja organisasi yang cemerlang.

Malah sistem pengurusan yang digarapkan oleh ajaran Islam menerusi kitab Al-Quran dan dijelaskan oleh Sunnah Rasulullah S.A.W. telah melahirkan sebuah sistem pengurusan berkualiti yang amat efisien dan efektif. Semestinya sistem pengurusan sama ada terhadap diri individu, keluarga, komuniti, organisasi ataupun bernegara yang diurus tadbir menurut panduan Al-Quran akan membawa kepada kejayaan sebuah tamadun yang hakiki (al-Falah) bukan hanya di dunia semata malah pada hari akhirat kelak. Namun, menjadi persoalan dewasa kini, terdapat segelintir umat Islam yang masih terpegun atau mengaplikasikan sistem pengurusan Barat yang rata-ratanya hanya mengutamakan manfaat sementara yang bersifat luaran atau materialistik sahaja. Justeru, sistem pengurusan Islam yang berasaskan al-Quran haruslah diketengahkan sebagai panduan di samping mengintegrasikannya dengan ilmu...

Justeru, kedua-dua elemen tersebut merupakan jaminan sesebuah organisasi untuk memperoleh manfaat kepada para pekerja lebih-lebih lagi membabitkan institusi pendidikan tinggi (IPT). Sehubungan dengan itu, penyelidikan yang berkaitan dengan kedua-dua aspek iaitu keberkesanan pengurusan berasaskan Syura dan konsep Tawhidik yang mempengaruhi pelaksanaan sistem pengurusan kualiti (SPK) haruslah dipergiatkan. Hal ini bertepatan dengan tujuan kewujudan piawaian yang telah diperkenalkan sejak tahun 2005 lagi iaitu sistem pengurusan kualiti berasaskan Syari’ah yang dikemaskinikan dengan versi baharu yang dikenali sebagai MS1900:2014. Kajian ini dijalankan terhadap dua...

MS 1900 is developed employing ISO 9001 as its base. MS 1900 is a structured system to help organisations in delivering products and services that congregate customers’ requirements, as well as regulatory requirements and the dictates of Shari’a (Islamic commandment). The Shari’a requirements are incorporated as an addition to the requirements of ISO 9001, and intend to close the gap that exists in the ISO 9001 standard in relation to the Islamic perspective. MS 1900 has three principles; namely compliance to the principles of Halal and Haram, value based management and decision taken in line with the objective of Shari’a (upholding human interest). Despite an ignition of interest in the promising of QMS in the recent years, little research has been carried out to study the MS 1900 implementation processes within hig...

The key messages from the previous studies examined by this paper are, the main motivation consist of push and pull factors. Based on past studies, a questionnaire was developed and later tested on five Muslim women entrepreneurs in Kuala Lumpur. After editing, the final questionnaires were distributed by post to 250 Muslim women entrepreneurs in Malaysia by using simple random sampling technique. About 111 questionnaires were received. However, five were deleted due to some errors. Thus, the response rate is 44% which is good. Findings of motivation factors are classified into personal, own skills, family, customers, suppliers, competitors, society and government and Muslim women rights which are both push and pull factors.

Sistem pengurusan dan jaminan berkualiti yang dilaksanakan di IPT awam mahupun swasta bertujuan meningkatkan keberkesanan pengurusan institusi sendiri agar mampu bersaing dengan yang lain, di samping memastikan para graduannya mempunyai kemahiran yang tinggi. Bagi menjayakan hasrat berkenaan, semua pihak sama ada pegawai pentadbiran, pensyarah dan para pelajar harus berganding bahu merealisasikan pelaksanaan pengurusan yang berkesan khususnya membabitkan pengurusan kualiti seperti TQM, ISO 9001, Amalan 5S, Six Sigma, KPI, Kaizen dan seumpamanya. Namun, pelaksanaan sistem berkenaan hanya mengukur aspek luaran sahaja, tidak membabitkan aspek kerohanian (Insaniyyah) lebih-lebih lagi yang berteraskan perspektif Islam. Oleh itu, kajian ini bertujuan meneroka pelaksanaan sistem pengurusan kua...

Tumpuan terutamanya kepada faktor dalaman (soft factor) dalam memberi impak terhadap kejayaan pembangunan modal insan dalam sesebuah organisasi serta memberikan kepuasan bekerja kalangan individu sering diperbincangkan. Malah, aspek pengurusan berkualiti dan pelaksanaan yang berkesan terutamanya dalam institusi pengajian tinggi awam ataupun swasta, semestinya berpunca daripada faktor-faktor kejayaan tertentu yang mampu melonjak tinggi imej dan kedudukan institusi berkenaan serta pembangunan modal insan itu sendiri. Justeru, kajian ini bertujuan untuk meneroka faktor-faktor kejayaan kritikal yang mempengaruhi IPT awam dan swasta di Malaysia dalam melaksanakan sistem pengurusan kualiti (SPK) menurut perspektif Islam. Metodologi kajian ini menggunakan penyelidikan kualitatif iaitu jenis kajian kes dengan kaedah temu bual sepa...
