Was the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, a political man?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

If the intent of "politics" is the availability of leadership qualifications in the Prophet, peace be upon him, and his leadership of the people, then Allah endowed him with such qualities that he surpassed all leaders. Allah specifically chose him for the message to all humanity, to lead mankind, and even his enemies testified to his excellent governance and management. Whoever desires to govern people and lead them must emulate him, peace be upon him, and study his biography, for he is the best teacher, as Allah Almighty says: "There has certainly been for you in the Messenger of Allah an excellent pattern."
