[quote=Muslima][quote=Anonymous]Serious, and admittedly naive, question here. Is calling for a worldwide caliphate an extremist position?[/quote] The Islamic Khilafah was the crown of Islam for over a thousand years, Muslims were the most progressive society of their time when they were under just rulers and lived according to the tenets of Islam.Contrary to the common belief that Khalifat is an autocratic or authoritarian system of government with one man rule, it is very democratic in nature, especially when seen in context of Islam's emphasis on equality in all the walks of life. Islam puts no restriction upon what should be the form of government. So yes a lot of Muslims who are not extremists dream of a caliphate, but most ordinary Muslims don't give it too much thought on their day to day life.[/quote]
