<![CDATA[The contemporary Islamic education ecosystem is currently facing paradigmatic turbulence, trapped between the urgency of positivistic governance modernization and the often-stagnant preservation of spiritual identity. Transformational leadership, while proven effective in accelerating innovation, has inherent flaws as it operates within a transcendental vacuum. As an antithesis, prophetic leadership offers an absolute moral anchor but frequently experiences a deficit at the level of tactical operational instruments. Responding to this discursive gap, this article aims to construct a theoretical architecture namely the "Transformational-Prophetic Leadership Synthesis Model" as a new paradigm for Islamic Education Management. Employing a critical library research design and a qualitative content analysis approach, this study restructures both theoretical entities into a singular functional construct. The primary finding of this research is the formulation of a four-dimensional hybrid matrix: Prophetic-Idealized Influence, Transcendent-Inspirational Motivation, Fathonah-Intellectual Stimulation, and Emancipatory-Individualized Consideration. The conclusion asserts that the fusion of managerial rationality (Western) and prophetic axiology (Islamic) generates institutional equilibrium. This synthesis model implies an overhaul of educational Human Resource Management that is operationally agile yet anchored in theological accountability, simultaneously shielding institutions from the traps of corporate pragmatism and historical utopianism.]]>
