The Concept of Good Governance in the School of Martyr Soleimani

Good governance is a key concept in political and managerial thought, which in the Islamic school of thought is not only considered an executive system but also an ethical and value-based framework for ensuring justice and social security. This study examines the concept of good governance in the school of Martyr Qasem Soleimani and analyzes the key indicators of this governance model in executive management, domestic and foreign policy, and regional crisis management. The findings reveal that good governance in the school of Soleimani is based on principles such as ethical leadership, jihadi management, accountability, transparency, public participation, and grassroots engagement. Furthermore, this model emphasizes resistance against global arrogance, the protection of the Islamic Ummah, and strengthening the Axis of Resistance at the regional level. A comparative analysis of Soleimani’s governance model with other Islamic governance frameworks shows that his approach successfully integrates religious values, strategic management, and direct field presence, providing an effective solution for managing security and political crises. Therefore, implementing this model in national policymaking can enhance administrative efficiency, foster national cohesion, and strengthen Iran’s defense and security policies. Finally, this study highlights the necessity of further research on Islamic governance and the role of jihadi leaders in the development of managerial frameworks.
