However, along the way, digital-based health services are not easy to implement, there are changes in the work culture of the organization and resistance from users. In this case, resilience is needed, namely the ability of individuals to adapt to environmental changes, survive pressure and challenges, or the ability to overcome difficulties faced, especially in the face of continuous change in the context of a digital health service system. The resilience of health workers not only includes technical aspects, but also ethical values that are in accordance with Islamic teachings. From the perspective of developing an Islamic society, the quality of service must be in line with Islamic ethical and moral values. The purpose of this study is to describe how resilience impacts on improving the quality of digital-based services with a special emphasis on the Islamic community development approach.
