<p>This research venture is based on the comparative analysis of the historical Caliphate system and modern democracy. The study evaluates the compatibility of the Islamic Caliphate system and its jurisprudence with the features of Western democratic norms. The study explores Islamic ideas of Shura (Consultation) in Islamic political thought and its key principles in both the Caliphate and democratic models. The role of Islamic law (Sharia), the selection of leadership, and the rights and responsibilities of citizens are incorporated as the main considerations. The study also used primary and secondary sources such as the Quran, Hadith, and prominent Islamic scholars' writings to investigate the core values and governance mechanisms advocated in Islam. Therefore, the findings of the study rely mostly on the convergence and divergence between these two debates regarding the suitable form of governance for the Islamic world.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
