Abstract: In the military context, the need for quality human capital, efficient and effective leaders is vital. The development of human capital in the Islamic military organization requires mentally and physically fitness. Muslim personnel in military not only responsible to defense of national sovereignty, but also have a role as a missionary of Islam. This role requires the competency, and the strength of physical and spiritual to ensure the organizational goals, cannot misled by enemy tactics, and the temptations of lust. This will develop and produce quality military leaders and able to frighten the nemeses of Allah SWT. In order to produce quality, efficient and effective leaders, the leadership development programs have been designed and implemented by the training command of the Malaysian Armed Forces. However, the overall leadership development models referenced are more toward Western perspective. Although there were some Islamic scholars who discuss these things, but mostly they were express their views without developing a conceptual framework to measured its effectiveness. Thus, this paper will focus on what are the key elements supposed to be in the formation of the military leadership development model based on Quran and Sunnah. This is to produce a conceptual framework that makes the Quran and Sunnah as the guidelines which are mostly dominated by leadership models based on the Western thought.
