Leadership in management is the nutshell of all success of an organization. The knowledge of leadership from the Islamic perspective is vital to understanding sound management in every sector, particularly for the organization’s performance, and betterment for mankind and here and hereafter.

And We made them leaders, guiding Our command; and We inspired them to do good work, and to observe the prayer, and to give out charity. They have devoted savants to Us (Allah). (Al-Qur’an, 21:73). The result showed that the main concept of Islamic leadership is to lead to achieve organizational goals and compete to be ahead of others and seek the measure of Allah and success hereafter.
