Educational Leadership: Islamic Religious, Philosophy, Psychology, and Sociology Perspectives

Abstract

To fulfill the complex and challenging role of a leader, one must conduct extensive research. Students' capacity to learn is inversely proportional to the quality of classroom leadership. Exemplary leaders understand what it means to lead from the Islamic philosophical, psychological, and social vantage points. Islamic philosophical, psychological, and societal perspectives on educational leadership are explored. For this study, we studied citations from a wide range of leadership-focused books and periodicals utilizing a library-based research methodology. Islamic theology places equal emphasis on human beings and Allah in the role of educational leader. Lack of competent and fair leadership constitutes a betrayal of Allah and the Prophet. Leaders in the education sector need to be in the right state of mind to make judgments that won't negatively impact their kids' learning. An individual's daily mental state is affected by the leadership style of the person in charge. This is because leadership is a part of the human experience that continues even after death. Therefore, the leadership style an individual exhibits is significantly impacted by their personal circumstances. Those in positions of authority in educational institutions need the sociological wherewithal to meet the social difficulties currently being encountered by the academic community.
