Abstract

The Holy Qur'an contains important teachings about resistance and its management, because Islam, as the last revelation religion, has had the most challenges with its enemies, and has treated them with particular logic we call today's resistance. It is clear that with regard to the universality and immortality of the Qur'an, resistance in this revelation resource must be managed in a global way and should not be tribal, , racial, familial, and at a regional level. Management means carrying out a project to its pre-determined goals in a way that does not harm the project process and flows to a better and more advanced level. The same needs should be met about resistance management. Many commentators have commented on resistance, but no comprehensive research on resistance management has been conducted. This paper aims at explaining the management of resistance from the Qur'an's point of view, with a descriptive-analytical and library method and it has been clear that the minds often go to war issues as soon as they hear the word resistance and the management of resistance, and this kind of understanding is flawed. Because, according to Qur'anic teachings, resistance has a general meaning and thus its management will also be general, and Muslims must carry out multipurpose operations that will, in addition to preparing them for war, help to increase industrial growth and promote their citizenship customs and worldly religion. At the same time, they must know their enemies and treat them with power and dignity to intimidate even unknown enemies.
