Islam provides a complete political system based on Tawhid (unity of God), Risalah (prophethood), and Khilafah (vicegerency of man). The Islamic political system (Khilafah) establishes the sovereignty of Allah, implements Shura (consultation), and ensures accountability, independence of the judiciary, and equality before the law. Democracy contradicts Islamic principles by allowing man to legislate and vote on Allah's laws. While Islamic countries vary, the ideal system governs by Sharia alone without interference from majority opinion.

3. Islam
 Islam is a complete code of life. It extends over the
entire spectrum of life, showing us how to conduct all
human activities in a sound and wholesome manner.
 It does not allow a hierarchy of priests or
intermediaries between Allah and human beings, no
farfetched abstractions and no complicated rites and
rituals.
 And so is it about Politics .

4. Defination of Politics
 Politics :-( from Greek: politikos, meaning "of, for, or
relating to citizens") is the practice and theory of
influencing other people on a civic or individual level.
 More narrowly, it refers to achieving and exercising
positions of governance — organized control over a
human community, particularly a state.
 A variety of methods are employed in politics, which
include promoting one's own political views among
people, negotiation with other political subjects,
making laws, and exercising force.

5. Islamic Political System
 We already know that Islam is a complete system of life
and politics is very much a part of our collective life.
 Islam teaches us how to say Salah, observe Sawm, pay
Zakah and undertake Hajj, so it teaches us how to run
a state, from a government.
 Islamic ruling system is not the same as the ruling
system we have in the non-islamic countries.

6. Islamic Political System
 The political system of Islam is based on three Matters
 TAWHID (unity of God)
 RISALAT (prophethood)
 KHILAFAT (vicegerency)

7. Tawhid
 TAWHID means that only God is the Creator,
Sustainer, and Master of the universe and all that
exists in it,organic and inorganic.
 He also has the right to command or forbid, and His
commandments are the law.

8. RISALAT
 The medium through which we receive the Law of God
is known as "Risalat" (Prophet hood).
 We have received two things from this source:
 The Book
 And the exemplification of the Book of God by the
Prophet

9. KHILAFAT
 KHILAFAT means "representation". Man [i.e. human
beings].
 According to Islam, he is the representative of God on
earth, His vicegerent.
 That is to say, by virtue of the powers delegated to him
by God, he is required to exercise his God-given
authority in this world within the limits prescribed by
God.

10. The Islamic Political System is based on
the following main principles:
 1. Sovereignty of Allah swt.
 2. Khilafah of Mankind
 3. Legislation by Shura (Consultation).
 4. Accountability of government
 5. Independence of judiciary.
 6. Equality before law.

11. Sovereignty of Allah SWT
 Sovereignty means the source of power. In Islam, Allah is
the source of all powers and laws . It is Allah who knows
what is good and what is bad for His servants. His saying is
final.
 All human beings unitedly cannot change His law. The
Qu’an says, "As for the thief -male and female, chope off
their hands. It is the reward of their own actions and
exemplary punishment from Allah. Allah is Mighty, Wise."
 And Thus No government or Parliament can change this
law

12. Khilafah of Mankind (Vicegerency of man)
 Man is the vicegerent, the agent or the representative of
Allah SWT on earth. Allah is the sovereign and man is His
representative.
 Man should do as Allah commands him to do. But he has a
choice to either obey or disobey Allah and, because of this
freedom of choice, he will be tested on the day of
judgement.
 In the political sense, Khilafah means that human beings
should implement the will of Allah on earth as His deputy
or agent. As Allah’s agent, human beings will carry out the
will of Allah swt on His behalf as a trust (Amanah).
 Khilafah is a trust. An agent is always expected to behave as
his master wants him to behave.

13. Legislation by Shura (Consultation):
 Islam teaches us to run a government, to make
legislation and decisions by the process of Shura.
Shura means "to take decisions by consultation and
participation“.
 This is an important part of the Islamic political
system. There is no scope for despotism in Islam. The
Qur’an and the Sunnah will be the basis of legislation
in Islam.

14. Accountability of government
 The Islamic political system makes the ruler and the
government responsible firstly to Allah and then to the
people.
 The ruler and the government are elected by the people to
exercise ‘powers on their behalf.
 We must remember here that both the ruler and the ruled
are the Khalifah of Allah and the ruler shall have to work
for the welfare of the people according to the Qur’an and
Sunnah.
 A ruler is a servant of the people of Islam. Both the ruler
and the ruled will appear before Allah SWT and account for
their actions on the day of Judgement.
 The responsibility of the ruler is heaver than the ruled.

15. Independence of judiciary
 In the Islamic political system, the Judiciary is
independent of the Executive.
 The head of the state or any government minister
could be called to the court if necessary.
 They would be treated no differently from other
citizens.
 The Qur’an has many injunctions about justice. One
of the main functions of the Islamic state is to ensure
justice to all citizens (4:58, 4:135, 5:8). The ruler and
the government has no right to interfere in the system
of justice.

16. Equality before law
 The Islamic political system ensures equality for all
citizens before the law. It does not recognise any
discrimination on the basis of language, colour,
territory, sex or descent.
 Islam recognises the preference of one over the other
only on the basis of Taqwa (piety or fear of God). One
who fears Allah swt most is the noblest in Islam
(49:13).

17. The Vision of an Islamic State
 The vision of an Islamic state and the purpose of its
political authority is to implement the divine law.
 Thus, the ideal Islamic state is a community governed
by the Law revealed by God.
 The function of the Islamic state is to provide security
and order so that Muslims can carry out both their
religious and worldly duties.

18. Referrence From Quarn About Islamic
System
 "Allah has promised those amongst you who believe
and work righteous deeds, that he willindeed grant
them inheritance of power in the earth, as he granted
it to those before them; thathe will establish in
authority their Deen, which he has chosen for them,
and that he will change their state from a state of fear
into a state of security and peace.
 They will worship me alone andnot associate partners
with me,and those who reject faith after this, they will
be the rebellious and the wicked.

19. Refrence From Hadith
 Imam Ahmed ibn Hanbal extracted that Huthayfah said the Messenger
of Allah (saw) said:“ The Prophecy will remain amongst you as long as
Allah wills, then Allah will lift it when he wishes,then it will be a
Khilafah Rashidah (i.e.: The first four Khalifahs) on the method of the
Prophecy, it will remain for as long as Allah wills, then he will lift it
when he wills, then it will be a hereditary
 leadership (i.e.: the Abbasid and Ummayid dynasties etc.) for as long as
Allah wills then he will
 lift it when he so wills. Then there will be a tyrannical rule (i.e.: all the
current Kufr regimes of the
 Muslims) for as long as Allah wills, then he will lift it when he so wills,
then there will be a
 Khilafah Rashidah on the method of the Prophecy, then he kept silent."
 ● (Musnad Imam Ahmed 4/273)

20. Islamic political sytem(Khilafah)
 From The above mentioned Refrences it can be cleaarly
conclude that islamic political system is of Khilafah ……..Not
Democracy
 Because , In Khilafah majority is not always authority.FOR
EXAMPLE
 The Messenger of Allah (saaw) rejected the overwhelming
majority of the Sahabah on the day of Hudaibiya and accepted
the truce with Quresh saying:
"I am Allah’s servant and His Messenger, I shall not go
against His commandment and He will not make
me the loser.”
This shows that when it comes to Hukam of Allah majority has no
bearing. So Allah’s laws do not need majority endorsement to
become the law of the land.

21. Islamic Democracy Principles
 Secular democracies:
In secular states such
as Azerbaijan and Turkey, that do not recognize any
religion as its state religionand, therefore, does not
incorporate religious principles into its public policy
and other state affairs.

22. Islamic Democracy Principles
 Religious democracies: that recognize Islam as its state
religion and a source of legislation, such
as Malaysia and Maldives. The application of religious
principles into public policy varies from country to
country, since Islam is not the only source of law.

23. Islamic Democracy Principles
 Theocracies: that endeavor to institute Sharia, in full
force,and offers more comprehensive inclusion of
Islam into the affairs of the state.
Presently, Afghanistan, Iran, Mauritania and Pakistan
are the only examples of an Islamic state in the form of
Islamic republics.

24.  No law is enacted even in an “Islamic Democracy” without the consent of the
 majority.
 Hence Allah’s Hukam becomes law of the land subject to the endorsement of
 more than 50%
 Riba is legal in Pakistan even though there is a clear Hukam of Allah just
 because the legislators in the parliament have not made it Haram. This
 shows who has the sovereignty in Pakistan’s constitution
 Voting on a Hukam of Allah to accept or reject it as being the law of the land,
 is absolutely HARAM. This process gives man the right to say “Yes” or “No”
 to Allah’s Hukam whilst a Muslims doesn’t have any right to have any say
 once Allah has legislated a matter
 َ‫ل‬ َ‫ون‬ُ‫ك‬َ‫ي‬ ْ‫ن‬َ‫أ‬ ‫ا‬ ً‫ر‬ْ‫م‬َ‫أ‬ ُ‫ه‬ُ‫ل‬‫و‬ُ‫س‬ َ‫ر‬ َ‫و‬ ُ ‫ه‬‫اَّلل‬ ‫ى‬َ‫ض‬َ‫ق‬ ‫ا‬َ‫ذ‬ِ‫إ‬ ٍ‫ة‬َ‫ن‬ِ‫م‬ْ‫ؤ‬ُ‫م‬ ‫ل‬ َ‫و‬ ٍ‫ن‬ِ‫م‬ْ‫ؤ‬ُ‫م‬ِ‫ل‬ َ‫َان‬‫ك‬ ‫ا‬َ‫م‬ َ‫و‬ْ‫ن‬ ُ ُُ َ‫ر‬َ‫ي‬ ِِْ‫ال‬ ُُُ‫ُه‬

 It is not fitting for a Believer, men or women, when a matter has been decided
by Allah and His
 Messenger to have any option about their decision
Islamic Democracy:The biggest hurdle
in implementation of Islam

27. Khilafah Vs Democracy
Khilafah:-
 Political system gets cleaned from corrupt people. The
representatives cannot use the system to cover up their
corruption by legislating laws for their own interests
“Professional politicians” find no reason to invest
millions as the job of the representative is to be serving
the Ummah rather than a source of mone making and
exerting power.

28. Democracy
 Corrupt people are attracted towards politics like bees
towards nectar
 The process of law making gives parliamentarians the
authority to makelaws to not only protect their
interests rather legitimize their corruption
 “Professional politicians” invest millions of rupees in
elections and rear “Gangs”, to keep sincere people out
of the political arena.

29. Conclusion
 The duty of an Islamic state is to establish Salah and Zakah;
promote the right and forbid the wrong (22:44).
 The state is responsible for the welfare of all its citizens -
Muslims and non-Muslims alike. It must guarantee the
basic necessities of life.
 All citizens of the Islamic state shall enjoy freedom of
belief, thought, conscience and speech. Every citizen shall
be free to develop his potential, improve his capacity, earn
and possess.
 A citizen shall enjoy the right to support or oppose any
government policy which he thinks right or wrong with the
following in mind.

30.  The Islamic state is a duty bound to implement the
laws of the Qur’an and the Sunnah. The Qur’an
strongly denounces those who do not decide their
matters by Allah’s revelations
 Let us pray and hope that a real Islamic state will
emerge and guide the world towards justice, fair play
and peace (very soon -if God wills).
