This study aims to analyze the educational strategies and methods employed by Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in shaping the character of the early Muslim generation and to identify the character values cultivated during the Meccan and Medinan periods. This qualitative study employs library research and a historical-pedagogical approach. Data were drawn from the Qur’an, Hadith, prophetic biography (sirah nabawiyah), books on Islamic educational history, and relevant scholarly articles. Data were analyzed using content, historical, and thematic analysis. The findings indicate that the Prophet’s educational practices were gradual, context-sensitive, and oriented toward holistic character development. During the Meccan period, education emphasized monotheistic faith, steadfastness, patience, honesty, and moral resilience. During the Medinan period, educational efforts expanded to foster brotherhood, social concern, responsibility, and communal life. These strategies were implemented through exemplary conduct (uswah hasanah), advice (mau‘izhah), dialogue (hiwar), habituation (ta‘wid), and gradual education (tadarruj). This study offers a historical-pedagogical synthesis linking social context, educational objectives, strategies, methods, and character dimensions. The findings provide a conceptual foundation for developing holistic, context-sensitive, and continuous Islamic education in contemporary settings.
