Abstract

Each society requires a kind of management according to its structure and attainment of the goals it has been planned for. The idea of management is not new. Long time ago, human had noticed the necessity of using all the facilities and leading them towards scheduled ideals. The kind of managing and leading the society depends on the cultural structure of it. So the way of management and internalizing it get the high importance. From the Islamic point of view, as Imam Ali (a.s.) explained it, the government is the responsibility loaded by God on the governors and has a defined framework and discipline. Many books and articles have been written on the justice-center and people-oriented government of Imam Ali (a.s.).This paper discusses the way of internalizing of those principles of management presented by Him on the base of Islamic divine school. Imam Ali (a.s.) tried abundantly, in his short period of Caliphate, for the governors who were appointed as Islamic caliphates to base their government on justice, human dignity, and viewing the government as a trustee of God. He invited them to adhere, during their caliphate, to the ethic fundamentals, God-centeredness, God- fearing and love of human. This is the only way of salivation of the human being and the development of society on behalf of governors as Imam Ali (a.s.) describes it.
