There are different ways to establish the idea of the possibility and necessity of having Islamic management. One of the most appropriate ways is to refer to philosophical teachings. The present paper seeks to study Islamic management through discussing the idea of possibility and necessity in philosophy. To this end, first the possibility of having an Islamic management in terms of affirmation and realization is reviewed. Then, the necessity of having Islamic management is discussed through criticizing the positivistic methodology and reviewing its epistemic system based on critical realism. Finally, the capacities of transcendent philosophy are examined and critical realism is criticized for establishing a methodological foundation for Islamic management based on the principles of Șadrian philosophy.
