Abstract

This study is intended to induce Imam Husain’s leadership model in Ashura upraising. This basic research follows a descriptive-qualitative method. Data is collected by reviewing the related documents through an inductive approach. Thematic content analysis is applied for data analysis. Using NVivo qualitative data analysis software, the researchers investigated all 12 scene historical writings which resulted in 26 themes. They were classified into 11 organizing themes. Finally, they were put in three main themes of purposes, principles, and methods in the model. Seven organizing themes including “anti-aggressiveness”, “God-orientedness”, “ethics-orientedness”, creed-orientedness, “ritualism”, “responsibility-orientedness”, and “intuition-orientedness” refer to the principles of Imam Hussein’s leadership.
