Beyond leading the pesantren, the title "Kyai" is also a mark of respect and recognition of a person's expertise in Islamic knowledge and their cultural leadership within the community. If a Kyai is understood in this way, then it is necessary to study the influence of a Kyai in shaping the character of an institution, particularly regarding the authority of a Kyai in the pesantren. This research aims to understand the role of a Kyai's authority in religious communication among the students and the community at Kanzul Uum. From this study, it can be concluded that a Kyai's authority is reflected in the guidance provided on religious matters, political attitudes, education, and teaching. This guidance is implemented through policies and advice that are then applied in various pesantren activities and routine events.This research also aims to study and analyze Max Weber's theory of leadership authority in the context of pesantren leadership, particularly at the Kanzul Ulum Islamic Boarding School. The focus is on how a Kyai possesses authority that earns respect and obedience from the community, especially within the pesantren environment. The types of authority held by a Kyai are analyzed using Max Weber's authority theory. This study employs a qualitative approach with a case study method, and data was collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The data processing involves data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The research results show that Kyai Miftah's leadership encompasses traditional, charismatic, and legal authority. %Z Pembimbing: Dr. H. Akhmad Rifa’I, M. Phil
