UNDERSTANDING RABBANI LEADERSHIP CONCEPT BASED ON THE LIFE OF THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD (PBUH)

This paper proposes the life of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) as a new organizational framework that builds on the concept of Rabbani leadership. Special attention has been put on spirituals in organizations, and roles as exemplified by Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) whose approaches differ substantially from common spiritual values. The faith and work of Rabbani leadership framework identifies five distinct organizational leadership principles at work (i.e. develop Benevolence (Ihsan), empowerment, brotherhood, knowledgeable culture, and management). This paper specifies two potential antecedents of Rabbani vertical leadership. Specifically, the paper identifies the Leaders Code of Conduct as well as the consequences of leadership as potential predictors of subsequent Rabbani leadership. Moreover, it articulates how Rabbani vertical leadership might result in principles of Rabbani leadership, besides demonstrating how both vertical and principles of Rabbani leadership can act as key factors in the creation of faith and spiritual organizational framework
