The I’tiqaad of the Haqq & Sunnah, & the Companions of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم in the issue of governance & leadership is fundamentally at odds with the misguided desires of the jamaa’aat & the Khawaarij. The issue is not a problem with the states that are present today. The problem is with what Allaah عزّ وجل legislated in regards to this issue (of governance & leadership).
For that reason, they already have – if you contemplate & reflect
deeply – you will find that they have a problem, even with the state of the rightly-guided
Khilaafah. When they look at the Khulafaa’
Ar-Raashideen (the Rightly-Guided Khulafaa' - Aboo Bakr, 'Umar, 'Uthmaan, & 'Alee) exercising rulership & authority by their own personal &
individual power, without referring back to anyone else (to examine & review
their decisions), [the jamaa'aat] have a problem here.
But what they can’t do against the rightly-guided Khilaafah, they
move on to disparaging & criticizing Mu’aawiyyah رضي الله عنه وأرضاه, as is well-known from Sayyid Qutb.
So don’t think that the affair stops at a specific point, even if most
of them are blind-followers, instigators, & oblivious to the realities of
the religion.
So may Allaah rectify the affairs.
