This qualitative study, utilizing a literature review method, aims to uncover the leadership traits of the Prophet Muhammad SAW within three leadership models: Charismatic Leadership, Transformational Leadership, and Servant Leadership. Consequently, this research will offer valuable perspectives to the community and aspiring leaders, guiding them in adopting the admirable qualities and behaviors demonstrated by the Prophet Muhammad SAW.
