Is Kingdom ship allowed in Islam?

Question

Is it allowed to be a King in Islam?

Answer 1

it's allowed.........

but the true "kingdom" comes from Allah SWT.........


Their Prophet said to them: "ALLAH hath appointed Talut as king over you." They said: "How can he exercise authority over us when we are better fitted than he to exercise authority, and he is not even gifted, with wealth in abundance?" He said: "ALLAH hath CHOSEN him above you, and hath gifted him abundantly with knowledge and bodily prowess: ALLAH GRANTETH His authority to whom HE PLEASETH. Allah careth for all, and He knoweth all things."
(2:247)

Answer 2

Yes, there is a king in Morocco, and his wife is a princess because queens are not allowed.

Answer 3

Any nepotistic institution is completely against the egalitarian principles of Islam.

Answer 4

yeah, why not
providing that the king is not an arrogant prick. a king helps to keep people together.

Answer 5

do u mean the king of saudi?

bcz he is also called ''khadem l7aramayn charifayn'' =slave of the haram

but i dont know if u mean something else.... no idea.

but i dont see something wrong in it... king can be like the khalifa(caliph) ... as long as he is fair and spread justice so why not?

but if he isnt fair and if he is a dictator, so that should be wrong.

my opinion.
