Summary
Integrity covers honesty, trustworthiness and reliability, and in Islam it is also expressed through amanah (trust) and itqan (diligence) in work. Employees with integrity avoid dishonesty, bribery, wasting time and shirking duties, which helps an organisation deliver efficient services and quality products. Betrayal and breach of trust damage an organisation's credibility and are linked to the traits of the hypocrite. Integrity must be practised and not merely understood in theory, and it can be nurtured together with sincerity and contentment (qanaah).
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Di dalam Islam, konsep intergriti ini boleh diungkapkan juga dengan sifat amanah dan itqan (bersungguh-sungguh).
