TextPublication details: Bandar Seri Begawan : UNISSA PRESS Universiti Islam Sultan Sharif Ali, 2019 . Description: xviii, 336 page : illustration ; 23 cmISBN: 9789991786278Subject(s): Leadership -- Religious aspect -- IslamOther classification: BP173.7 AHA 2019 Summary: The book "Leadership in Islam: Ibn Khaldun's Perspective" is about the concept of leadership from the Islamic perspective. It tries to locate the concept as it is found in the Qur'an, the Sunnah which are primary sources in Islam and other sources of Islamic heritage or related, with special focus on In Khaldün notion of the concept through his academic work entitled the Muqaddimah.
Previous studies as well as the book reveal that Muslim nations suffer from poor leadership due to the lack of effectivepolicy-
making, lack of equitable distribution of wealth and above all, high levels of non-transparency in governance among others. Therefore, among the objectives of the book are to find how leadership should be practiced as it is explained in our references (the Qur'an and the Sunnah). Likewise, how In Khaldun's legacy could be used to cater for contemporary leadership predicament that confronts contemporary Muslim firms, societies or communities. The book also shows that servant, transformational and charismatic types of leadership, which are recently discovered concepts in contemporary studies, have long been part and parcel of Islamic leadership since its inception in Madinah 15 centuries ago.
