Glad to have sensible folks like you on this forum. I have some questions. What is the definition of a ruler in Islam? How the rulership of a ruler is established? or What is the method to elect or select a ruler? Who has the authority to chose a ruler? @KhafeeNarrated Ibn Abbas: The Prophet SAW said "Whoever disapproves of something done by his ruler then he should be patient, for whomever disobeys the ruler even a little will die as those who died in the Period of Ignorance".
Mukhtasir Sahih al Bukhari Hadith 2187
Sharia isn't explicit about the form of government and ruler. But it can't be a one man show. Consultation is a must. Moreover, rules from Kuran and Sunnah need to be followed. And, Biat from the folks is required. This is my limited understanding. I may be wrong..Glad to have sensible folks like you on this forum. I have some questions.

True. But we are not restricted to don't strive for Khilafah ala Minhaaj in Nabuwwaa.Khilafah ala Minhaaj in Nabuwwaa (Leaders ruling according to the way of Nabi SAW) is the ideal but there will be only twelve Khulafa e Rahidun (all from Quresh) until the Day of Judgment.
Historical facts.Nabi SAW appointed Abu Bakar Siddiq (implicitly) as the first Khalifah; Abu Bakar appointed my grandfather Umar bin al Khattab (explicitly) after him; Umar forbade his son Abdullah bin Umar to be appointed Khalifah, instead nominating him as Shaheed (witness) on the Ummah from Allah Az wa Jal, and asked for one of six to be chosen after his death. After Uthman bin Affan's Shahada (martyrdom), internecine fighting ensued until Nabi SAW's grandson acceded his 'haq' (claim) to Mu'awiyah ibn Abi Sufiyan and once again united the Ummah.
I have serious issues about this point. Dictatorship is the worst thing which happened to Muslims and Islam. It changes the way of thinking from religious scholars to common citizens.By the mercy of Allah, as in other matters, no one way is prescribed as mandatory and if there is no united Ummah, we are still allowed to live under a Muslim Sultan who has been appointed in any manner or has taken the mantle for himself.
All my previous questions are applied to this passage. I am simply not ready to obey every tom dick and harry who just happened to be my ruler by the means of power or ancestry. I will expand my point further in due time.We are not allowed to spread anarchy in any land we live in, and are enjoined to follow the rules of all lands (even non-Muslim states) we visit, rules such as those that do not force us to transcend (exceed) the limits ('hudood') set by Allah. We are to follow the ruler of any land we live in even if he lashes our backs and steals our purses (unjustly). We can only advise him in private to mend his ways, and if he is a tyrranical despot that we fear will kill us, we can stay silent but are not allowed to spread anarchy among others. Saying 'kalima e haq' (word of Truth) in front of such a despot is the highest form of jihad. If a Muslim state's ruler openly commits kufr (has to be polytheism, apostasy, or something similar, not just leaving Sunnah and following Bid'ah) the Muslim Jama'at if alive should make plans to replace him without spilling the bloodshed of civilians.
