Despite numerous political, social, and other challenges, the Prophet Mohammad (pbuh) adopted effective political strategies to bring about significant political transformations in the Arabian Peninsula. Within ten years, he not only established Islam in Medina but also extended its influence to the surrounding tribes and neighboring states. By carefully monitoring the political environment of Medina and its surroundings, the Prophet used various political strategies step by step to promote Islam. The present study seeks to address the question ‘What political strategies did the Prophet Mohammad (pbuh) use to promote and establish Islam?’ This is conducted through a descriptive-analytical method and with Qurʼānic verses, historical sources, and hadiths. The findings indicate that the Prophet (pbuh), as a reformist with a universal vision of Islam and a peaceful approach, could successfully implement his political strategies. While fostering internal political cohesion, he extended his strategic policies externally. His political actions were proportionate to his social and political authority, and he acted with tolerance or decisiveness based on his level of power. A key aspect of his political strategies was the prevention of foreigners or strangers from infiltrating the Islamic society, which not only blocked their influence but also strengthened the authority of the Islamic state.
