The disharmony of Islamic politics triggered by stigma, discrimination, and persecution of the authorities against the people causes radicalism and intolerance of the concept of the state. Hizbut Tahrir, with textual interpretation dominatingly intervened by ideological reasoning, produced controversial sectarian revivalist thoughts, far from the universal message of the verse and itsmaqāṣidīmeaning. This study examines the concept of power politics in theQuranthrough the theological analysis of thekhilāfahin al-Wa'ie. The method used in this study includes a descriptive-qualitative analysis ofmauḍū'ī interpretation through a context and content approach. This study concludes that the power politics of scripturalist, textualist, and fundamentalist interpretations in al-Wa'ie is far from authoritative (mu'tabar) scholars' thoughts or interpreted by jumping to conclusions, such as in solvingal-Baqarah[2]: 30,al-Nisā'[4]: 59, andal-Mā'idah[5]: 49. The verses of the power politics clearly state that thekhilāfahis an institution of civilization within state sovereignty, not a political conception that is taken for granted that negates Islam or a modern Islamic government system that substantially contains the principles ofsiyāsahandmaqāṣid al-syāri'ah.

This article seeks to address the problem of historiography and perspective in Middle East studies concerning dominated ethno-nations, especially the Kurds, while examining the religio-political confrontations between the Islamic empires and their significant socio-political consequences in Kurdistan through a historical study (primarily) based on secondary sources. With the dominance of the early Islamic Caliphate from the 7th century, the political powers of the Kurds' ancestors were removed and the non-Muslim population severely declined. From the middle of the Abbasid Caliphate period (750-1258) Kurdish governments grew again. After the Abbasids, various Islamic sects gained power and Kurdistan gradually becoming the battlefield of various political powers. With the emergence of two empires, the Sunni Ottoman and Shiite Safavid (and its successors) in the 16th century, the internal conflicts in the Islamic world culminated and lasted until the early 20th century. Between the 7th and the early 20th century religio-political confrontations converging in Kurdistan have severely affected the land's socio-political situation. This article examines how the Islamic empires used religion politically as a means to fight each other, as well as engage with the Kurdish revolts.
