Muhammad 11 Leadership Qualities That Changed the World

Each of you is a shepherd and each of you is responsible for their flock

This profound statement by Prophet Muhammad (s) compels us to recognise that we are all leaders at some level. But what makes someone a good leader? And how does each and everyone of us measure up against the leadership standards set by the Prophet?

This book presents a well researched leadership framework combined with extensively applied contemporary practitioner case studies for the first time to readers interested in a Sirah (prophetic life) based universal model for good leadership. Drawing upon scholarly findings from eastern and western sources, and having examined an extensive range of works on Sirah, an original framework of eleven prophetic leadership qualities are presented with an entire chapter devoted to each.

Well known and lesser known events from the Sirah are explored and analysed like never before, and viewed with a specialist leadership lens, extracting insights on effective people management, authentic leadership and succeeding against the odds.

Each chapter on leadership qualities offers not only what the quality means and where it can be found in the life of the Prophet, but how one can develop those qualities within themselves as well.

Reviews

"A book that anyone can benefit from"

I attended a course run by the author based on this book and so it’s great to have the book now. The book is so easy to access with a great framework of 11 qualities and a way to assess your own strengths and weaknesses in each quality. I found I could then focus on my weaker areas and learn about how the Prophet ﷺ, companions and historical or modern day role models exemplified that quality. It would be a great book for entrepreneurs & people who want to excel in all spheres of life. I especially liked the case studies & tips at the end of every chapter.

About The Author

Nabeel A-Azami

Nabeel was a community leader, activist, author and award winning Human Resource and leadership specialist. Despite leaving us at the tender age of 39, Nabeel’s work touched people of all generations over several decades. Nabeel loved to invest his time in mentoring young people. Through his gentle conversations, challenging and reflective training sessions, practical advice and support, his insights have shaped many minds and characters.

Nabeel's Contribution to the Community

Among the many community roles that Nabeel played are:

Serving on the National Executive Committee of the Young Muslim Organisation (YMO) in the 1990s.
Trustee of Citizens UK
Member of the Central Working Committee of the Muslim Council of Britain, initiating an Institutional Capacity Building Initiative (ICBI) for affiliates and wider Muslim organisations
CIPD award winning Global Head of HR at Islamic Relief
Founding director of Murabbi Consulting (A management and leadership training consultancy)

Upon diagnosis of an aggressive cancer in March 2019, Nabeel displayed selfless courage and immediately turned to leaving a legacy and sadaqa al-jariya to benefit society. It was from his hospital bed that he would complete his groundbreaking book.

Nabeel passed away on August 14th 2019, at the age of 39. He is survived by his wife, three young children, father and siblings. His life was one of commitment to society and contentment in his Lord. We are thankful to Allah for the gift of a generous, patient and wise mentor, and the profound vision and work he left behind.
