Abstract EN

This study aims to identify the level of the Islamic University management's practices of crisis management methods during Covid-19 pandemic, and its interrelation with the strategic planning.

The researcher used the descriptive, analytical method and the questionnaires as a tool for the study.

The sample of the study composed of the faculty members at the Islamic University of Madinah, the researcher used the simple random sample when applying the study.

The following statistical measures were used: arithmetic means, standard deviation, Pearson correlation coefficient to measure the validity, and Cronbach's alpha coefficient is used to measure the stability of the questionnaire, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test to ensure the equilibrium of the data curve, Kruskal Wallis test which is a non-parametric test, is used as an alternative to the single-test analysis of variance due to the presence of variance in the distribution of the study sample groups according to their functional variables.

The main results of the study: During Covid-19 pandemic, Management of the Islamic University used the confrontation method as one of the methods of crisis management with a high degree, with an average of 3.68.

Also, the containment method with a high degree with an arithmetic mean of 3.48, and the cooperation method with a medium degree with a mean of 3.33 and escaping from facing the crisis method.

Moreover, the management of the Islamic University used strategic planning to a high degree, with an arithmetic mean of 3.64, that in all its three operations (pre-strategic plan operations, strategic plan preparation and construction processes, post-strategic plan operations: follow-up and evaluation).

It shows that there were no statistically significant differences in the study sample's answers towards its axes due to the study variables, and it shows also that there is an inverse relationship with statistical significance between the degree of the Islamic University management’s use of the escape method as one of the crisis management methods and the degree of its use of all strategic planning processes.

Moreover, it was found that there is a direct relationship of statistical significance between the degree of the Islamic University management’s use of methods of (confrontation, containment and cooperation) crisis management and the degree of its use of all strategic planning processes.
