The purpose of this study is to explore the use of the qualitative library research method to investigate task and time management within the context of an Islamic worldview. The primary source of data for this investigation is the Holy Qur'an, and classical and contemporary interpretations of the Qur'an are utilized as secondary sources. A thematic analysis (maudhu'i) was conducted to find out what themes exist in relation to time management. Subsequently, a qualitative analysis was used to determine the relationships between each theme. There were six major themes that arose out of the analysis: Amanah (Trustworthiness/Responsibility), Discipline/Punctuality, Itqan (Professionalism), Tawazun (Balance), Muhasabah (Self-Reflection/Evaluation), and Sabr (Perseverance/Patience). The themes also define time as a moral and spiritual responsibility that affects how effectively individuals perform their jobs, worship God, fulfil societal responsibilities, and grow as individuals. Results from the analysis suggest that the six themes can be used to create everyday practical routines. This paper adds to existing research by providing a conceptual model that links Qur'anic ethical values with current task and time management concepts. It also acknowledges that the findings of this study are limited due to its qualitative nature and reliance on literature-based sources.
