The Strategic Management of Mosque-Based Education

Abstract

As in the early days of Islam, mosques are not only places of worship but also places of empowerment and Islamic education for Muslims. As an Islamic educational institution, fostering personality attitudes, and the center of civilization for the people, mosques should be managed with modern, professional and accountable organizational management, following the management stages, in order to facilitate the service function for mosque congregations. Among these stages is to develop a good plan, which contains the formulation of actions to achieve the results according to the goals set, namely a decision on what to do in the future. This study uses a descriptive method with the aim of describing various phenomena that exist in the research location. The data collection techniques are through observation, interviews and documentation studies. The results showed that the planning of strategic management for mosque-based education used several strategies to develop, prosper the mosque, with the formulation starting with the development of the vision and mission, identifying various opportunities and threats as well as strengths and weaknesses faced by the al-Mukarromah mosque, determining the good goals for the mosque in short-term, medium-term and long-term goals, and determine alternative strategies and specific strategies to achieve.
