The Wikipedia article lacks some information.
1) The Political Structure “Bait ul Mal” 2) The Global Campaign for the Revival of Islamic Culture “Quran Psychology”
These two points are the driving force behind the Revival of the Global Islamic Chaliphate in the 21st Century
For more information do some research or google the above title “UMN Intl: The Rise of Political Islam A Baraka unto the Muslim World” The most outstanding work on strengthening Political Islam is done by an organization known as the United Muslim Nations International.
The part about Shia following Imams should be edited. Imam Ali was the fourth Caliph, so it should be incorperated into: Shia followed Caliphs until Muwaoiyah became Calpih. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.246.115.33 (talk) 21:35, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
the part about Early Caliphate and Political Ideals must be corrected, the Alquran verses in paragraph 3 and paragraph 4 are wrong Demisari (talk) 05:11, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
I'm calling a vote:
Should the article "Islam as a political movement" remain as an article?
Yes: BL
No (make it a redirect):
Too early for a vote (try revising): Uncle Ed, Khym Chanur
This page is way too long, for the pittance of information it actually gives. It would ALMOST be better to delete than to have it.
But what we need is a clear explanation of the political aspects of Islam. No one in the West understands it. Or if they do, they haven't dropped by the Wikipedia yet. *sigh* I might have to become an expert on it, just to revise this article. With 10,000 registered users, why must it be me?
Okay, the pity party is over. I learned a lot about Middle Eastern politics to write about the Arab-Israeli conflict and revise articles like Palestinian. I guess I could take on a little more. But I'd rather work on the Wikipedia:NPOV tutorial. Help me out, eh? --Uncle Ed 21:19, 24 Sep 2003 (UTC)
From the sentence: Islamists claim that the origins of Islam as a political movement are to be found in the life and times of Islam's prophet, Muhammad and his successors, the Caliphs (for Sunnis), or the Imams (for Shia). I cut off the Caliphs (for Sunnis), or the Imams (for Shia), as it is much more complicated than that, since Islamists don't agree.
For example, Islamist Muhammad Qutb only talks about the caliphs Abu Bakr and Umar as exemplary. Taqiuddin al-Nabhani, of Hizb ut-Tahrir, on the other hand, maintains Islam did not really go wrong until the abolition of the Caliphate in 1922.
Also, Shia conside the Imams to be Caliphs, i.e. the rightful sucessors of the prophet, although they seldom use the word "Caliph" in my experience. --BoogaLouie (talk) 19:54, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
The Alquran verse in the Early Caliphate and Political Ideas text are wrong Demisari (talk) 05:09, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

These are some features of a democracy:
I am curious to know which of these features were present or even possible in Rashidun or any other caliphate. The article makes some of the strangest ever claims about caliphates. Swingoswingo (talk) 18:33, 29 July 2017 (UTC)
In Political Islam: Religion and Politics in the Arab World By Nazih Ayubi[1] I found (start missing, page not in GBooks) "differences between the fundamentalist Islamism of Sayyid Qutb and the Jihadists, the liberalnationalist Islamism of M. Khalafalla and M. ‘Imara, the culturalhistoricist Islamism of Tariq al-Bishri and ‘Adil Husain, and the Islamism claimed by owners of the so-called Islamic Investment Companies. On an intellectual level, liberal-nationalist Islamism, culturalhistoricist Islamism, and the broader circle of discourse revolving around the issue of authenticity (asala) may eventually translate themselves into a movement for cultural nationalism that is nativist, ‘specifist’, if not particularly secularist."

I request to add here a new section named Sufi-salafi division. 43.245.122.17 (talk) 12:35, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

Add it at the end of the first para: After the early caliphs, including Rashidun Caliph, starting with Muawiya II, various Muslim kings and emperors ruled Muslim majority populations or conquered territories. Due to the prevalence of various modern political ideologies in modern times, they have acquired varying degrees of hybridity under the influence and combination of Islam in various Muslim majority regions. Islamic scholars claim that only Khilafah and Muslim Monarchy are the legitimate Islamic political systems,[1] and while they call the rest of the political systems haram,[2] they judge their use as legitimate as a way for Muslims to gain power to establish Islamic rule.[3][4][5] 103.230.105.12 (talk) 14:55, 4 August 2022 (UTC)

At the top it says "This article is about the issue of politics in the religion of Islam. For the movement of "Political Islam", see Political Islam."
At the top of Political Islam it says "This article is about a term. For the history of the movement, see Islamism." (correct to some extent but very short and has a section I don't think belongs)
At the top of Islamism is says "This article is about an Islamic political ideology and political movement."
Not sure if I should post the question at the other articles. Doug Weller talk 14:30, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
