Abstract

This chapter explains the growing corpus of literature in the field of educational leadership which demonstrates that educational leadership is understood and practised differently within societies, cultures and organizations. The notion of educational leadership in Islam derives from the Islamic philosophy of education, while the contextual variations of conceptualization and practice across Muslim societies can be traced to given interpretations of religious texts, reinforcing the interplay between context, faith and concepts. Philosophical and theoretical underpinnings of educational leadership conceptualizations in Islam are linked to the broader aims of education and its contribution towards the development of nafas and Ummah. This social and collective dimension of educational leadership in Islam links it to the role ascribed to the prophets and parents, commanding respect and authority. Muallam or teacher who leads and guides the learners towards knowledge and righteousness, also has the authority and status of a parent, the highest authority within the Islamic social system.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
