INTRODUCTION
Organizations are an important element in human social life that has existed since ancient times.
In the context of Islam, organizations have a very strategic role as a forum to unite people and achieve common goals.
The Qur'an itself has outlined the importance of unity and cooperation in goodness, as stated in Surah Al-Maidah verse 2 which encourages helping each other in virtue and piety.
"The success of an organization depends on its ability to manage human, material, and information resources effectively.
Good management will create synergy between the various components of the organization.
"(Peter F.
Drucker, 2.
The development of the era has brought various new challenges for Muslims, which makes the existence of organizations increasingly vital.
Islamic organizations not only function as a place to gather, but also as a means to strengthen faith, spread Islamic teachings, and provide social benefits to society.
"Organizations in the modern era need to be adaptive and flexible in facing change.
Rigid structures must be replaced with models that are more responsive to the demands of the times.
"(Henry Mintzberg, )Various forms of Islamic organizations have developed to meet the needs of the community, ranging from mosques as centers of worship and social activities, to educational and economic institutions that operate based on sharia principles.
This study aims to examine more deeply the concept of organization from an Islamic perspective, including its definition, purpose, and implementation in various forms of Islamic organizations that exist today.
A deep understanding of this is important to optimize the role of Islamic organizations in the development of the wider community and society.

RESEARCH RESULT
Definition of Organization An organization can be defined as a group of individuals working together to achieve certain goals.
According to(Robbins.
SP, 2.
"An organization is a group of people working together to achieve a set goal.
" In this context, organizations become very important in coordinating efforts and resources to achieve common goals.
The English term "organization" also comes from the word "organizare", which means "to make whole or to make whole from interdependent or coordinated parts.
"(Onong Uchjana Effendy, 2.
In other words, the word "organization" also comes from the Greek "orgonum" which means "group, group, member.
"(M.
Manulang, 1.
Organizations play a vital role in human existence because they enable the accomplishment of tasks and initiatives that are beyond the capabilities of an individual, community, nation, or state.
Organizations can serve as a platform for achieving common goals.
The definition of an organization by experts is as follows:
Winardi stated that "Organization is a system consisting of several parts or forces that work on other factors.
Humans are a very powerful force, and it is proven that these forces can interact to advance goals.
"(J.
Winardi, 2.
In his book.
Khatib Pahlawan Kayo quotes James L.
Gibson's opinion, "An organization is a chain that enables members to achieve goals that would be impossible to achieve individually.
"(Khatib Pahlawan Kayo, 2.
According to Amitai, "an organization is a group that is deliberately continuously developed with careful thought to achieve certain goals.
"(Ibid, n.
According to Anwar Masy'ari's book Ilmu Dakwah, "Organization is defined as a component or strength of an organizational unit that has the aim of managing internal problems and as a unit of arrangement that has the function of achieving given goals.
"(Samsul Munir Amin, 2.
According to Dimock, an organization is as follows: An organization is a systematic combination of interdependent or related parts that form a unified whole through authority, coordination and supervision to achieve certain (Agil, 2.
According to some of the definitions above, an organization is a place where people come together to achieve certain goals.
Every organization must have three main components: a group of people or members, cooperation, and goals.
Therefore, an organization is a means by which people work together to utilize existing resources to achieve common goals.
The Qur'an says that working together is essential to achieving this goal of And Allah The Most High O Allah O Lord, anA aO eE a aeOIAAnd You are the One O Allah, the Most Gracious Allah Allah is the Most Gracious Shadid And the Most Gracious CopyrightA 2024 on the author Organization in Islam as Worship.

There are different but interrelated activities .

)(Ibid, n.
As its characteristics show, the organization of the Islamic religion is not something new.
Islamic society has been established as a civilization that has always been one big family based on brotherhood and unity: as the Qur'an states:
AaOIna na aI a aE eIna aIna Oana OaIana aac aE eIna AaCa enaOA It means:
Indeed, this .
awheed religio.
is your religion, one religion, and I am your God.
So, fear Me.
" (QS.
Al-Mu'minun: .
His other words also:
AOIA
ana AaEEna Ea aEEa eIna a e a aIA a aI eE aIe IIA e a AOIna u e aOna a a anAAE aOna aO aeIna a aaO eOEa eIna ona aOCaOA Meaning: "Believers are actually brothers.
Therefore, reconcile .
mprove relation.
between your two brothers and fear Allah, so that you may receive mercy.
OrganizationAccording to Islamic Views In the Islamic view, organizations have a deeper meaning.
The Qur'an emphasizes the importance of cooperation and mutual assistance in goodness.
In QS.
Al-Maidah: 2 above.
Allah SWT saysAuAnd help you in .
righteousness and piety, and do not help you in committing sins and transgressions"This shows that the goals of organizations in Islam should be in line with the values of manners and ethics contained in Islamic teachings.
Organizations according to the Islamic perspective are not merely structures or institutions, but rather a means to achieve a higher goal, namely to serve Allah SWT and provide benefits to humanity.
By following the principles that have been established in Islamic teachings, organizations can function effectively and become a place for the spiritual and social development of their members.

Principle-Principles of Organization in Islam From the explanation above, it is evident that an organization is a collection of individuals who collaborate to achieve common goals faster than if each person worked alone.
In order for an organization to run well, it must be guided by the following organizational principles:
Organizations Must Have Clear Principles and Goals: An organization cannot function without goals.
Health institutions such as hospitals and health centers, for example, have the goal of providing quality health services.
Principle of Hierarchical Scale: In an organization, there is a clear line of authority between the executive, assistant leaders, and leaders.
This is intended to show where authority lies and who is responsible, and to ensure that the organization as a whole is running well.
Principle of Continuity of Instruction: In this scenario, a person is accountable to a superior and only receives orders.
Principle of Delegation of Authority: A leader must give authority to his subordinates because they cannot perform all tasks well.
The authorized official must have the ability to ensure that the expected results are achieved.
With delegation, a person is given the authority to make decisions, communicate with other members, and act without asking for approval from his superiors again.
Accountability Principle: Each worker is fully accountable to their manager for the work they accomplish.
Principle of Division of Work: An organization can perform various activities or actions to achieve its goals.
Based on the skills and abilities of each employee, tasks and work are divided to ensure that operations run smoothly.
If there is clarity on how tasks are distributed, it will be easier to understand who has authority and who is responsible, and it will also help the organization run better.
Principle of Separation: A person cannot impose the burden of his work duties on another person.
The principle of organizational flexibility must continue to develop in accordance with the dynamics within the organization .
nternal factor.
and by factors outside the organization .

, so that the organization can carry out functions to achieve its goals.
Leadership Principle: Leadership must exist in every organization, whatever its Organizations are able to carry out activities because there is a leadership process carried out by their leaders.

Hana Maulida Dewi, et al One of the main goals of Islamic organizations is to spread Islamic teachings and values to society.
Through da'wah activities, organizations can educate people about religious teachings, thereby increasing their understanding and awareness of Islamic values.
This is important in creating a society that is more aware of their social and spiritual responsibilities.
In addition, organizations also serve to build solidarity among Muslims, creating a strong sense of brotherhood within the community.
Member education and empowerment is another very important goal.
organizing training programs and coaching activities, organizations can improve the skills and knowledge of their members.
This is an important step in preparing people to be able to contribute effectively to community life, especially in an era that is increasingly complex and changing rapidly.
Islamic organizations are also committed to carrying out social and humanitarian activities.
Through concrete actions, such as providing assistance to those in need and participating in social programs, organizations can show that Islam is a caring religion.
These actions not only reflect the caring values of Islam but also strengthen social ties within society.
The principles underlying Islamic organizations, such as deliberation, justice, and accountability, are crucial in ensuring that all members can actively contribute.
Deliberation in decision-making can create a sense of ownership and collective responsibility among members.
Fairness in the treatment of members is also important to create a harmonious and cooperative environment.
Leadership in an organization has a very significant role.
A leader is expected not only to direct the organization, but also to be a role model for its members.
The principle of trust must be applied in leadership, where leaders are expected to maintain trust and be responsible for the actions taken.
With good leadership, the organization can function more effectively and achieve the goals that have been set.
Although Islamic organizations have a lot of potential to make positive contributions, they also face various challenges, such as lack of resources and differences of opinion among members.
Therefore, it is important for organizations to continue to adapt and find solutions to these challenges.
Overall, organizations in Islam serve as a means to improve the quality of life of the people, spread religious teachings, and make positive contributions to society.
Involvement in Islamic organizations is not only a social obligation, but also a form of worship that can bring individuals closer to Allah SWT.
By utilizing the principles that have been established, and strengthening solidarity among Muslims.
