Abstract
|
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Godliness or the kingdom of God has been the dominant idea in the ancient period, which gradually found its way into the post-Islamic period and was manifested in the writings and works of politicians of the early centuries. The important point is that the idea of a theocracy, which is mostly rooted in the beliefs of the ancient Iranians, is influenced by the gods of kings, which shows the superiority of the sultan over the people. In this article, the authors have devoted their efforts to providing a reasoned and convincing study of the concept of theocracy in the Nasihat al-Moluk Ghazali. METHODOLOGY: The research method of the present article is descriptive analytical and the data collection method is library resources. FINDINGS: The result of the research shows that in Ghazali"s political thought, the sultans are in the same rank and among the prophets who have been specially selected, so any revolt and ingratitude against them is not permissible. |
CONCLUSION: He also believes that the king is chosen by God and any opposition to him is considered opposition to the Prophet and then to God .
