While a Human Resource Management (HRM) is primarily concerned with the administration of people within organizations, focusing on policies and systems, a human management model provides a solution to how managers of television organizations may help Muslims workers striking a balance between their work and their religious life. This study combines and compares extensive literature from the media management, sociology and psycho-spiritual approaches to the study of Muslims in media industries. Many research into creative media workers show that working in television production involved overwork, long hour, poor pay, isolation, and insecurity. These studies, however, lack emphasis on the religious life of employees involved. As for Muslims working in television industries, such poor experiences may have a great impact on their religious life. Hence, a model of human management for Muslims in television industries is essential to identify challenges and to support their efforts to strike a balance between their professional and religious life. � 2017 American Scientific Publishers All rights reserved.enCreative media industriesHuman managementMuslimReligious lifeTelevision studiesArticle48354838235
