Abstract

This study aims to determine the role of the Tawhidic paradigm in knowledge creation for organizations. The tawhidic paradigm refers to Islamic rules that become the basis for the creation of new knowledge in individuals and provides illustrations that help link the spirit of Tawhid with the conventional SECI model of knowledge creation which is a process that emphasizes the tacit or explicit knowledge creation process and utilizes these processes to build knowledge networks within the organization. This model is also based on resource-based view that asserts that humans are valuable resources based on their own intellectual, emotional, and spiritual assets in terms of knowledge creation. The model should ensure that knowledge process creation is integrated and balanced with the principles of the world (ad-dunya) and hereafter (al-akhirah). Tawhidic paradigm becomes a catalyst and guide that knowledge creation will be achieved in the corridor of goodness (‘amr bil ma’aruf) and prevention of evil (nahi anil munkar). The proposed model of tawhidic paradigm in the creation of knowledge will make individuals as members of organizations continue to learn within the framework of worship. This proposed model will enrich organizational insights into individual knowledge creation and the processes involved.
