However, the large area of expertise in knowledge-based community sometimes create little friction that will ultimately hard to solve. Therefore, we need a social engineering model to maximize the existence of the community towards the realization of community’s welfare. Speciļ¬c targets to be achieved is an understanding on the application of the concept of collective engagement, dimensions, forming factors and its impact on the community’s spiritual wellbeing. A four propositions is build based on literature review. Future research agenda is provided to address validity of the proposed model.
