Abstract : the role of the systems thinking is paramount and very well connected with all aspects of life, especially with management sciences and tcchnolngy. This papcr discusses the theoretical grounding and conceptual clarity of the word system’ and the experience of the ‘West’ in dealing with it as it symbolizes an intellectual effort to explore its roots and dimensions. A live element cyclical schema is constructed to depict the Islamic originality of the system concept. This is documented by using revelations from the Qur’an as well as the Sunnah. Various cyclical schemas have been used to further illustrate the philosophical underpinnings with the constructed cyclical schema to verify the analogy between them; this will lead to conceptual clarity of the systems concept. This clarity, however, is based upon the unity of the component elements (sub-systems) and to reflect the holistic rather than the fragmented view. This study also intends to embrace the fact that the system’s philosophy and science are appropriate technology for the Islamic nations. Thus, originating the system concept (in the Islamic thought) will enhance introduction of complexity and facilitates creation of varieties, and, thus, realizes the much sought-after objective i.e. ‘sustainable socio-economic development’ to the underdeveloped Muslim Societies.
