al-Dhaka’ al-‘Atifi fi al-Sirah al-Nabawiyah wa Dawruhu fi Mu‘ilajat al-Qadaya al-Mujtama'iyah [Emotional Intelligence in the Prophetic Biography (S?rah) and Its Role in Addressing Societal Issues]

Abstract

Emotional intelligence is regarded as one of the most significant concepts that contribute to regulating social relationships, fostering positive interaction, and enhancing individuals’ affective competencies. This notion finds its most comprehensive embodiment in the life of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The present study seeks to investigate the role of emotional intelligence within the Prophetic biography (S?rah) in addressing contemporary societal challenges. By analyzing a range of Prophetic practices and situations, the study illustrates how the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) employed emotional intelligence to manage social relations, regulate emotions, and reinforce the values of compassion and tolerance. Methodologically, the research adopts a descriptive, analytical, and deductive approach to extract educational insights that may contribute to the development of a balanced social personality capable of effectively engaging with the complexities of modern life.
