Salam,

Those are excellent traits for leaders to emulate. I just wanted to share with you what had been said by Khalifah Umar Al-khattab when people was asking him on what could be the most important thing that a leader needs?..he answered by saying that the leader needs to understand our deen, i.e. Islam in great details before one could be selected or appointed as a leader to his community! I for one strongly agree with his statement. The rest of other traits can also be found from Imam Nawawi’s book. Happy searching!wassalam
