The establishment of the Caliphate signifies the sovereignty of God and the end of human rule, which is considered the greatest form of idolatry. Until the Caliphate is re-established, shirk (associating partners with God) persists through human governance. True worship will only be possible when divine authority replaces earthly dominion, eliminating the foundation of shirk and establishing pure devotion to God.

Supplication (du'a) should be directed solely to Allah. Seeking help from anyone other than Allah – be it prophets, messengers, angels, saints, or any created being – nullifies the act of worship. While seeking physical assistance within the natural laws of the world is permissible, requesting the unseen or miraculous from anyone besides Allah is strictly forbidden. True supplication involves asking Allah alone for all needs, both material and spiritual. Seeking aid from others in worldly matters is different from asking for the impossible or supernatural from anyone besides the Creator.

The core of a person’s character lies in their priorities: worldly possessions or the afterlife. True faith demands prioritizing the hereafter and seeking Allah’s pleasure above all else. Sufficient provision, even if modest, is superior to excessive wealth that leads to spiritual negligence. Self-sufficiency and reliance on Allah are preferable to a life of abundance and detachment from the Divine. A life of modest means, free from dependence on others, is more virtuous than a life of luxury that breeds spiritual heedlessness. Prioritizing contentment over excess fosters a stronger connection with Allah.
