Artificial Intelligence (AI), Profiling, Competencies, Mosque PerformanceAbstract
The excellence of the mosque institution depends entirely on the management that steers the leadership of the mosque institution. Charismatic leadership and its structured organizational system are able to have a great impact in reviving the image of the mosque institution as well as the entire congregation and community. In this regard, there is a need to develop a profiling system and the competence of excellent mosque management based on elements of artificial intelligence (AI) to identify the list of knowledge, skills, and abilities, as well as the level of mastery of each competence that must be possessed by mosque management members to consistently drive the excellence of mosque institutions. This study employs a qualitative case study method and a Design and Development Research (DDR) approach. The DDR approach is used to test the practical usability of a model, namely the artificial intelligence (AI) element in the development of this system, and it involves four phases of study, namely the needs analysis, design, development, and usability assessment phases of the model in this system. The research data for the development of this system were collected from four outstanding mosques that have received recognition from the Department of Islamic Affairs in Malaysia. With the development of this competency system, the characteristics and traits of a manager of an excellent mosque institution can be effectively identified and evaluated using elements of artificial intelligence (AI), creating a dynamic, high-caliber work committee for managing, administering, and planning mosque activities with excellence in this country. The findings indicate that the developed AI-based competency system enables mosques to conduct automated self-audits, with the generated self-audit data serving as additional input for the SPMM assessment team, thereby enhancing the effectiveness, transparency, and sustainability of the official mosque evaluation process.
