dc.description.abstract |
The central theme of this book relates to the nature of the
Islamic caliphate and its makeup. How did it actualize itself in the
first century of Islam? What were the causes that led to its shift to
monarchy? And finally when the change did take place, what was
the Ummah’s reaction to this change?
To explain it, I have compiled all those pertinent Āyat (verses)
of the Qur’ān that have relevance to the primary political issues
enabling the readers to have a glimpse of the Islamic state that the
Qur’ān wants to have.
The second chapter deals with the principles of Islamic
governance in the light of the Qur’ān, the Sunnah, and the precepts
and sayings of the prominent Ṣaḥābah (raḍi Allahu ‘anhu).
The third chapter speaks of the distinguishing characteristics
of the pious caliphate as known in the history.
The fourth chapter delineates the causes that led to the shift
from the caliphate to monarchy. While the following two chapters
discuss the difference between the caliphate and monarchy, the
change that the monarchy caused and the way the caliphal fall led to
schismatic polarization and conflicts among the Muslims, followed by
the ‘ulamā’s effort to bridge the cleavages wrought by the change in
the system of governance as typified by Imām Abu Ḥanī |
