Abstract
There is no doubt that the nature of the socio-political conducts of the Prophet arises from the attitude he has towards man, his nature and his existence. The paper is to explain the theoretical anthropological foundations of the Prophet’s political and governmental conducts to show that his political and governmental conducts are intended to revive man’s innate dignity and to bestow on him his real virtues endowed by Allah. Thus, the question the can be posed is what anthropological foundations the political and governmental conducts of the Prophet have. The political conducts of the Prophet enjoys an essentialist approach to man which represents the bi-dimensionality of man and an existentialist approach which is representative of man’s existential status. Thus, the Prophet tries to help man attain to the highest position of man, that of being the representative of Allah on the earth.
