Discussion ; The Line of Prophets, The Line of Caliphs, The Line of Kings and the Line of Dictatorship

We as a mere human being is a humble servant of Allah. Under the theory of evolution, it is said that human is an evolution form from monkey. How such ridiculous theory can be think of is not the question. The main point here is, the Human Race that lives in earth today is a descendant of Adam and Hawa (Eve), the first human ever to walk on earth. In theory, we are not a life form which are local on earth. We are a celestial life form as Adam and Hawa were created in the Heaven. After time pass, Adam and Hawa were sent to earth as a punishment for eating a fruit forbidden by Allah and from that time forward, the descendant of Adam lives and prosper in the face of the earth.

Nevertheless, in the history of human, this intelligence being always forgotten their creator. Usually ended up worshiping other being that they scared. Thus, in our life on earth, Allah has sent a number of 124,000 prophets and 313 of them were elevated as His messengers to propagate the teachings of Allah to worship the oneness of God. As my blog is a blog specifically written for royal news, did actually the concept of King in Islamic leadership acceptable in the teachings of Islam? The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) has stated in his hadith regarding the line of leadership.

“We were sitting in the mosque of the Messenger of Allah (saw), and Bashir was a man who did not speak much, so Abu Tha’labah Al-Khashnee came and said: ‘Oh, Bashir bin Sa’ad, have you memorised the words of the Messenger of Allah (saw) regarding the rulers?’ Huthayfah replied, ‘I have memorised his words’. So Abu Tha’labah sat down and Huthayfah said, ‘The Messenger of Allah (saw) said ‘Prophethood will be amongst you whatever Allah wishes it to be, then He will lift it up if He wished to lift it up. Then there will be a Khilafah on the way of the Prophet, and it will be whatever Allah wishes it to be, then He will lift it up if Allah wished to lift it up. Then there will be an inheritance rule, and it will be whatever Allah wishes it to be, then He will lift it up if He wished to lift it up. Then there will be a coercive rule, and it will be whatever Allah wishes it to be, then He will lift it up if He wished to lift it up. Then there will be a Khilafah on the way of Prophethood.’ Then he was silent.”

The line of prophethood in the Al-Quran is as follows :-

1.  Adam
2. Idris
3. Nuh 
4. Hud
5. Salleh
6. Ibrahim
7. Luth
8. Ismail
9. Ishak
10. Yaaqub
11. Yusuf
12. Ayub
13. Syu'aib
14. Musa
15. Harun
16. Zulkifli
17. Daud
18. Sulaiman
19. Ilyas
20. Ilyasa'
21. Yunus
22. Zakaria
23. Yahya
24. Isa
25. Muhammad (pbuh)

The line of Caliph is as follows :-

1. Abu Bakar As-Siddiq
2. Umar bin Al-Khattab
3. Uthman bin Affan 
4. Ali bin Abi Talib
5. Hassan bin Ali

The line of inheritance started after the grandson of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), Hassan bin Ali gave up his position as Caliph and been given it to Muawiyah bin Abu Sufian. Thus started the new age of rule by inheritance (usually refer to as the age of Kings/Royal). - will be update in the future.

The line of coercive rules beginning after the end of the line by inheritance rule. This line usually known as the line of Dictator. - will be update in the future.

After the end of the dictators rule, the leadership shall be return back to the age of Caliph. And later the prophets was silent. The silence represents that after the age of Caliph is the end of the world.
