The pro-caliphate legal and historical revisionists have misled many Muslims to imagine that a proper Islamic government resembles a confederated western democracy of sorts. According to one thesis: islamic governance cannot be reconciled with the modern state Arab and Muslim states are unislamic and unethical But a Muslim led confederate polity governed by islamic ethics and modeled in accord with western democracy must be established. If the current situation in Muslims lands is unislamic and unethical, how much different is the situation today from previous centuries of Muslim rule which serve as analogues for what we call “Khilafah”? Were the Umayyad, Abassid, Buyid, Safavid, Seljuk, Fatimid, and Mogul dynasties periods of khilafah or unislamic non-khilafah? If dynastic authoritarian rule along with the centralization of state power determines the immorality and non-islamicity of a polity’s governance, to what extent would have an authentic khilafah ever existed? Historical Islamic governance has not supported popular democracy. Those charged with selecting a Khalifah was a small group of elders/representatives during the early period but eventually evolved into dynastic/monarchical rule. The Ottoman Empire—often celebrated as a great Caliphate—was not a popular democracy. So those who delegitimize Muslim monarchies are clearly applying a double standard. Some of the most vocal proponents of neo-caliphism also leave out the fact that while Islam promotes meritocratic succession rather than nepotistic hereditary rule, with respect to religious orthodoxy only a Qurashite qualifies for khalifah. That a few scholars historically said the Qurashite lineage has no legal value doesn’t prove that scholars overall yielded to this view and continued to share the prophetic teachings that, “Command shall persist with Quraysh as long as two of them remain.” لا يزال الأمر في قريش ما بقي منهم اثنان متفق عليه
