<![CDATA[Prophetic leadership is a model of leadership rooted in prophetic values as manifested in the hadiths of Prophet Muhammad SAW. Amid the leadership crisis in Islamic education that frequently relies on conventional managerial models, a systematic study of prophetic leadership hadiths becomes urgently needed. This study aims to identify the concept of prophetic leadership in the Prophet's hadiths and analyze its implications for contemporary Islamic educational management. This qualitative research employs a library research approach, drawing on primary data sources from canonical hadith collections (Sahih Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, Sunan Abu Dawud, Sunan Tirmidhi) and secondary sources including relevant books and journal articles. Data were analyzed through takhrij al-hadith, matn analysis, and contextual interpretation using a hermeneutic approach. The findings reveal that the Prophet's hadiths contain prophetic leadership values encapsulated in four main pillars: siddiq (honesty and integrity), amanah (responsibility and accountability), tabligh (communication and transparency), and fathanah (intelligence and competence). Implications for Islamic educational management include reforming the organizational culture of madrasas and pesantrens, strengthening the capacity of school principals as moral-academic leaders, and internalizing prophetic ethics in educational governance. This research contributes to developing an authentic and transformative Islamic educational leadership model grounded in normative Islamic sources.]]>
