Abstract

Tawakkul in research serves both as a spiritual and methodological principle, guiding the researcher, improving the quality of work, fortifying it ethically, and motivating the production of beneficial and impactful knowledge that serves the self, community, nation, and seeks Allāh’s pleasure. The lack of Qur’ānic grounding and practical application of Tawakkul in research can lead to methodological lapses and unethical practices. This study aimed to define Tawakkul in scientific research, extract its practical etiquettes from the Qur’ān, and link them to contemporary academic practice. Using an inductive-analytical approach to Qur’ānic texts and a deductive method for practical application, the study defined Tawakkul as reliance on Allāh while taking legitimate means, exerting effort, maintaining diligence, and seeking divine pleasure and societal benefit. Twenty etiquettes were identified, grouped into three domains: reliance on the Creator (trust, seeking assistance), self-discipline (initiative, perseverance), and responsibility toward others (scientific integrity and service). Adhering to these principles enhances research integrity, prevents plagiarism and dishonesty, elevates the status of scientific research, and ensures the continuity of its scholarly and ethical impact.
