Abstract

Many assume that humans are free to pursue political affairs for achieving their own goals. Islam however views political affairs as part of religious teachings to meet human needs that must be practiced based on moral rules and values. This paper uses a content analysis study method to uncover the concepts and techniques related to the political affairs of Prophet Muhammad as recorded by the Quran and other sources. Three main political bases according to the Prophet namely tauhid, risalah and khilafah. Sirah of the Prophet recorded various styles of leadership approaches that he used in politics to lead the Muslim community. Among these approaches was management by change, management by skill, management by organising as well as laying some of the policies related to relationships with foreign countries. In conclusion, his political and leadership affairs are an integrated concept that reflects the process of political affairs as the head of Muslim state and at the same time spreading Islam as a God's Messenger running simultaneously.
