The Caliphate the Hejaz and the Saudi-Wahhabi Nation-State

Imran Najor Hossain's The Caliphate the Hejaz and the Saudi-Wahhabi Nation-State is a revised edition that includes a new introduction, adding the eschatological analysis that was absent in the first printing. Islam's core teaching holds that when people acknowledge Allah Most High as al-Malik, the sovereign, then the State and all its institutions must submit to His supreme authority and law. When the State itself is recognized as sovereign instead of Allah, that is the essence of secularism, and Islam declares this to be Shirk, the greatest of all sins.

Today the modern secular State is universally acknowledged as sovereign across the globe. Its authority and its law are regarded as supreme. Consequently, mankind is now enveloped in a universal political Shirk, which stands as one of the major signs that we are living in the age of Dajjal, the false Messiah who has deceived humanity into worshipping other than Allah. Dajjal is the mastermind behind the current world order, and the Hadith declares that 999 out of every 1000 will enter the hellfire. Even Muslims, however, appear to be unaware of this reality.
