What are the essential requirements for being a Leader? A timeless lesson from Quran.
The important matters that come under this video are:
1/ Not only did Yusuf (AS) establish his innocence, he asked for a job to make him the treasurer
2/ He mentioned that he will be hafeez and aleem (safeguard it and is knowledgeable in this matter)
3/ Leadership is about confidence. Too much confidence, however leads to arrogance.
4/ It is your God given responsibility. If you are talented in leadership you have to take the leadership role
5/ Arrogance is when you are obsessed with your title and you cant let it go
6/ Yousuf (AS) took this position to save lives not because he wanted leadership. Thats true leadership.
7/ Some of you are natural born leaders and some are followers. Realize your role and acknowledge that as gift. Leaders as well as followers are necessary.
8/ Leadership qualities are Hafeez and Aleem in addition to sincerety which is implied when you think you are and Abd/Slave of Allah.
9/You may be extremely pious, righteous, hafiz, zahid but itdoes not mean you are a leader, because leadership requires seriousness of the job and knowledge of the job.
