Characteristics of Islamic Educational Leadership – Ramazan Cansoy, Recep Utku – Eğitim Yayınevi - Bilimsel Eserler

This book takes a holistic approach to exploring Islamic educational leadership, bringing together theory, research and practice. Starting with the foundations of leadership in Islam — faith, the purpose of human creation, and the aims of Islamic education — it then examines how the Qur'an and Sunnah define leadership characteristics. Building on this, it reviews conceptual frameworks on Islamic and Islamic educational leadership developed in the literature. These frameworks are then synthesised to highlight the essential characteristics expected of Islamic educational leaders.Offering both depth and clarity, this work provides a comprehensive reference guide for scholars, educators and students wishing to understand leadership in Islam as not only a managerial task, but also a value-driven, ethical and spiritual responsibility.
