This study examines the effect of prophetic leadership on teachers’ engagement through the mediation of organizational climate in Islamic boarding schools (Pondok Pesantren) in Deli Serdang Regency. Using a quantitative explanatory design, data were collected from 397 teachers selected through purposive sampling. Questionnaires with a Likert scale were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with SmartPLS 3.0. The results indicate that prophetic leadership has a positive and significant effect on organizational climate but does not directly influence teachers’ engagement. In contrast, organizational climate has a positive and significant effect on engagement and serves as a significant mediator in the relationship between prophetic leadership and engagement. These findings suggest that prophetic leadership enhances teachers’ engagement indirectly by fostering a positive organizational climate. Leaders who uphold prophetic values such as honesty, exemplary conduct, moral guidance, and a clear religious vision are better able to create a supportive work environment and strengthen teachers’ commitment to their professional roles.
