<![CDATA[The Indonesian National Police (Polri) has adopted talent management as a merit-based career development instrument, yet the links between its stages, personnel competence, and professionalism at the regional police level, and their relevance for the development and empowerment of Muslim communities, remain under-theorised. This article synthesises public-sector and police talent management literature to build a conceptual framework linking Polri’s talent management stages, competence, and professionalism, extends it with an Islamic community development and empowerment perspective (amanah, al-qawiyy al-amin, shura, ta’awun, and maqasid al-shariah), and assesses its relevance for Lampung Regional Police. A qualitative-descriptive library study using document analysis and thematic analysis of a purposive corpus of 37 sources, complemented by a normative-conceptual reading of primary Islamic sources; it is not a systematic review. The literature is fragmented and context-sensitive; documented practice diverges from the normative design (seniority-based mentoring, education-position mismatch, limited participant motivation); and no study testing the integrated chain at Lampung Regional Police was found. A conditional conceptual model with six propositions and a research agenda are proposed. Findings are literature-based and do not empirically describe Lampung Regional Police.]]>
