Abstract
Authentic leadership (AL) has caught the eyes of many researchers as
it is a new, nascent, and comprehensive; and most mature emerging
notion in the field of leadership. This intellectual effort contributes to
mounting Authentic Leadership Theory (ALT), from two perspectives
that is based on a social and philosophical stance, employing a case
study qualitative approach in Islamic contextual framework. Using indepth interviews and observations in a Pakistani university, this study
examined the ALT and cultivate a theory of AL in Islamic contextual
framework. Muslim AL focus on being self-authentic, in alignment
with English collected works, but put superior importance on being
genuine and trustworthy to ‘the situation or contextual framework’ of
per diem practice. But it was found that there is a world of difference
between theory and practice. Thus, the study suggests the novel ALT
archetypal that with dynamism assimilates dual sorts of genuineness,
backed by proofed confirmation resulting in the Islamic contextual
framework
