Abstract
In an environment created by globalization and information affluence, the issue of
moderation represents the primary concern of parents, educators, scholars, and
leaders. The concept is somehow complicated and is regarded as personal or
religious in practice and thought. In fact, there is no definite answer to the question
of what constitutes moderation. This paper examines the concept of Islamic
Moderation (Wasatiyyah), its background and to analyze its common conceptual
aspects or principles from the perspective of Islamic Knowledge Management
(IKM). This exploration is an initiative to critically review, analyze and (re)construct
the existing formulations of IM within contemporary understanding and practices.
The focus remains on identifying aspects of the relationship value of knowledge, its
functions, and utilization within the practice of IM. From the perspective of this
study, IM is viewed as an essential personality trait of an individual that determines
organizational productivity and societal stability. In other words, the implications of
this study cover various knowledge users who construct their Islamic Moderation
Personality.
