Journal Title: Journal of Human Resource Studies - Year 2021, Vol 10, Issue 4
Abstract
Background and Purpose: The organization's attention to its social responsibilities reflects its ethical approach and consideration of social benefits and interests. Among the various models that have introduced the duties and actions of organizations in this field, the present study has explored the components of social responsibility from the perspective of verses and narratives and has introduced its implications for the universities of the Islamic society based on those verses and narratives. Methodology: This research is applied, qualitative, inductive and interpretive. In the first stage, the content of the relevant verses and narratives were analyzed using the content analysis method, and the themes of social responsibility were identified and combined. Ensuring the reliability of these findings was done by confirming ten academic experts in Islamic management topics who were selected using purposive sampling method. The presentation of relevant implications for the universities of the Islamic society has also been done using the unsystematic approach. Findings: Social responsibility from the perspective of verses and narratives is presented in the form of six main themes: Legal, civil-social, environmental, economic, cultural-educational and political responsibility. The implications related to each of these six themes for the universities of the Islamic society are also presented in detail. Conclusion: Understanding the nature of social responsibility of the organization from the perspective of verses and narratives is an important step in moving towards the ethical and religious performance of organizations in Islamic society. The implications provided in this regard can also provide the basis for the implementation of this important category in Islamic universities.
