Textual analysis was utilized in this research to review the writings of Muhammad in the Qur’an and the Ahadith, or writings about the Prophet, as it allows the researcher to describe and interpret the characteristics of the messages and to ascertain the meaning of the texts.  This research is important as it cites the values of transformational leaders as cited by Burns (1978) with the findings here that extraordinary values the Prophet exemplified and espoused include character, and community.  Muhammad demonstrated character values of gentleness, good character, humility, kindness, modesty, moderation, politeness, and truthfulness.  He suggested community values of charity, forgiveness, hospitality, and mercy.  The values he suggested are an excellent complement to the transformational leadership values of liberty, justice, equality, and collective well-being.
