ASk 194

In this clip Dr Israr Ahmed explains that Khilafat is a system where governance is based on Allah’s commands and the Prophet’s (PBUH) teachings, ensuring divine authority remains supreme. Unlike democracy, where people’s will dominates, Khilafat prioritizes Quran and Sunnah. However, democratic elements like majority opinion and consultation can be included, as long as they stay within Islamic limits. The Khalifa is responsible for ensuring all decisions align with divine guidance, making Khilafat a balanced system of authority under Allah’s sovereignty.
