<![CDATA[Objective: This study aims to analyze patriarchal leadership regeneration at the Darussalam Martapura Islamic Boarding School through the perspective of Max Weber’s theory of traditional and charismatic authority. The study was conducted because previous research has predominantly examined either the charisma of religious leaders or family-based succession separately, leaving the interaction between these two dimensions in the reproduction of patriarchal leadership insufficiently explained. Method: This research employed a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation involving pesantren leaders, members of the founding family, administrators, teachers, students, alumni, and community leaders. Data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. Results: The findings reveal that leadership succession is primarily inherited by sons or male relatives of the founding family through family deliberation and consultation with senior pesantren figures. Leadership legitimacy is established through lineage, tradition, and community trust as forms of traditional authority. However, successors are also required to demonstrate religious competence, piety, authority, and charisma to gain broader acceptance. Novelty: This study finds that the reproduction of patriarchy in pesantren leadership is sustained not only through genealogical inheritance but also through charismatic legitimacy. The combination of traditional and charismatic authority reinforces the acceptance of male dominance as a legitimate and natural pattern of leadership succession within the pesantren.]]>
