| Summary: | Abstract
Bad leadership is a relatively new complex topic. It has been an understudied theme in academic literature and an underappreciated topic among practitioners. The Qur’an support the seven types of bad leadership as suggested by Kellerman and the Qur’an deepen our understanding of this topic. Qur’an speaks about good and bad leadership. Probably, that is the first study to speak about the different kinds of bad leadership and to analyze it under the shade of Qur’an such as: incompetent, rigid, intemperate, callous, corrupt, insular,wicked. Bad leadership in the Qur’an is a new subject in this study.Leaders may be bad in terms of skill or morality. And it is possible to be bad in both. The Qur’an looks at the ongoing costs of bad leadership and the benefits of its study. It argues quite convincingly that bad leadership has a lingering and multigenerational effect. The aim of this study to define bad leadership in Western and Islamic perspectives, to analyze and discuss the Qur’anic verses related to the subject of bad leadership, to extract lessons from the different types of bad leadership in the Qur’an. This study uses textual analysis of the Qur’an and Western literature and discourse analysis to draw parallels between both as well as conclusions on the way to successful leadership.
Keywords: Incompetent Leadership, Rigid Leadership, Intemperate Leadership, Bad Leadership
Abstrak
Kepimpinan yang buruk adalah satu topik kompleks yang baru. Topik ini kurang dikaji di dalam literatur akademik and kurang dihargai oleh para pengamal kepimpinan. Menurut Kellerman, terdapat tujuh jenis kepimpinan buruk yang disebut di dalam al-Quran. Al-Quran juga mendalamkan kefahaman kita tentang kepimpinan yang baik dan yang buruk. Barangkali, ini adalah kajian pertama mengenai jenis-jenis kepimpinan dan analisa di bawah bayangan al-Quran seperti: ketidakupayaan, ketat, keras, keterlaluan, korup, sempit dan jahat. Kepimpinan yang buruk di dalam al-Quran merupakan subjek baru di dalam kajian ini. Pemimpin mungkin tidak bagus dari segi kemahiran atau moral. Dan mungkin juga tidak bagus dalam keduadua aspek. Al-Quran melihat kepada bahana kepimpinan yang buruk dan manfaatnya. Al-Quran juga telah menyakinkan bahawa kepimpinan yang buruk memiliki kesan berlarutan dan bergenerasi.Tujuan kajian ini adalah untuk mendefinisikan kepimpinan buruk melalui perspektif Barat dan Islam. Seterusnya menganalisa dan membincangkan ayat-ayat al-Quran yang berkaitan mengenainya serta mengambil pelajaran daripada kepelbagaian jenis kepimpinan.Kajian ini menggunakan analisa tekstual daripada al-Quran dan literatur Barat serta analisis wacana untuk menselarikan kedua-dua sumber lantas membawa konklusi kepada kaedah kepimpinan yang berjaya. |
