Implementation of Tauhid Axioology in Islamic Education Leadership
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to offer a conceptual framework that can be used as a reference for Islamic education leaders in integrating the axiology of Tawhid into leadership practices. This study uses a qualitative approach with a literature review to reconstruct the concept of the axiology of Tawhid in Islamic education leadership. Data were sourced from the Qur'an, Hadith, and relevant scientific literature selected purposively. Data analysis was conducted through a philosophical-thematic approach that included ontological, epistemological, and axiological analysis. The value of Tawhid was derived into leadership principles such as justice, trustworthiness, and professionalism as a value framework in decision-making and the formation of the work ethic of Islamic educational leadership. The results of this study show that it can be concluded that the axiology of Tawhid is a fundamental normative foundation in Islamic educational leadership. The axiology of Tawhid does not stand alone but is integrated with the ontology and epistemology of leadership, thus forming a complete, valuable, and welfare-oriented philosophical framework for Islamic educational leadership.
