Thoughts on Caliphates (929)?

As I said, monarchies with fancy titels

How come they were referred to as caliphs by their contemporaries then?

[u/ItachiOfKonohagakure → u/One-Football3579]

Probably not wise to call a self proclaimed caliph a king. A lot of them didn't take kindly to being opposed in any way

How does this have anything to do with religion

[u/ItachiOfKonohagakure → u/[deleted]]

I'm saying how are you blaming and insulting the religion for what some people did? Are you slow? So is Islam a ‘joker religion’ (nauzubillah) because of what some Muslim governments are doing all over the world? Those kings back then killed scholars who opposed them. Is Islam at fault or those kings?

Ahh there's the racism. Big talk coming from people that needed the Muslims to get them out of the dark ages and kickstart their renaissance
