**6.4 Knowledge management culture change**

Knowledge management culture change that stimulates followers to be creative and innovative Aqal (*intellect*) is regarded as the starting point of knowledge. Islam forbids the practice of drinking alcohol because it can damage the mind that can affect its function to acquire knowledge. This type of leadership supports followers as they try new approaches and develop innovative ways of dealing with organizational issues. It encourages followers to think things out on their own and engage in careful problem-solving.

In this regard, preservation of the mind may avoid things that can impair the function of the mind which can disrupt the harmony of social life. The preservation of the intellect must be accompanied by faith that provides the direction of the reason for the truth. Faith requires the mind to adjust to a shariah understanding of the current context and environment. In general, Islam guides its people to preserve the main source of human intellectual development capable of knowing Allah Almighty.

Leaders should have a philosophy of monotheistic values to be translated through leadership practices. This confidence will be able to give birth to the basic principles for handling all human affairs and organizational development efforts. Leaders will always set an example by showing a good example of personal life to their followers. Leaders always keep promises and give high commitment when in social activities with their followers. This practice will strengthen the identity and bonding relationship between leaders and followers in an organization. Rabbani leaders encourage others and celebrate their accomplishments and lead followers' feel better about themselves and their contributions to the greater common good.

The preservation of the intellect is not limited to the avoidance of harmful acts, but also to the development of the faculties of the intellect that contribute to the cultivation of knowledge. The exploration of knowledge should be encouraged by providing for all the needs of knowledge development and identifying factors that may hinder its smoothness. Rabbani leadership can contribute elements of the knowledge management culture change that are in line with common sense goals. In this case, political leaders should be willing to harness the power to shed light on the importance of knowledge in life. In addition, political leaders can also organize programs that stimulate the community's desire to gain knowledge. The sensible mind can accept the facts of truth without being influenced by emotion and bigotry. The sensible mind also readily accepts the rules and laws set by Allah Almighty. On the other hand, unhealthy minds cannot accept the good or prevent the damage described from the sources of the Qur'an and the Sunnah of the Prophet PBUH.

#### **6.5 Management (resources)**

Islam sees natural resources as the greatest gift from God to all human beings. Natural resources are sources of sustenance allocated to human beings to be utilized. Thus, part of the objective of the development of an economic-social system is to emphasize the collective responsibility in utilizing, allocating, and preserving this whole universe. Islam emphasizes efforts towards environmental protection, taking and utilizing natural resources for business purposes, and the importance of social sustainability. Therefore, the leader is responsible for guiding the followers or the people to utilize the natural resources they have for the needs of life and maintain the balance of the environment. The categories of human needs are many, and they are classified in terms of variance of goods, individual and social services related to health, employment, education, housing training, building relationships, and including the environment to ensure an acceptable standard of living for all (Khalfan, 2002).

The creation of man is a combination of spiritual and physical elements. Both of these elements actually influence the hopes, desires, and needs of human life. Humans always need something to meet the demands of a member's life. At the same time, human beings also need spiritual elements to meet the needs of internal elements such as intellect, lust, and even spirit. All three internal elements feel empty if one has not yet discovered or known God [15, 24]. In this case, the leader should be able to take care of all the living needs of his followers or his people well. Good management will produce the equipment needed fairly and equitably. This agenda can cause followers to appreciate the leader's efforts by highlighting positive self-expression. This situation will be able to bind the relationship of leaders and followers who are guided to fulfill the vision of the organization. Good management opens up space for leaders to express high expectations to followers and help them gain confidence and self-efficacy. In short, Rabbani's leadership works because it binds followers and their self-concepts to organizational identity.
