The caliphate, -Islamic papacy-

Sunni concept of Caliphate “succession” in other express "The sponsorship of jurist or Wilayat Alfaqeh in Shiite Muslim concept" is a translation of a pattern different in little form from the issue of papal in the world of Roman Catholicism, the Pope represents “Christ” and his the successor has the authority with powers of the gods was able to Pope to grant anybody the right to bless or curse or denying individuals or groups of divine grace addition the civilian authorities of the Pope till reformation by Martin Luther in the 16 century AC when Vatican start withdraw from policy step by step, there has remained in place in the individual life, even after the complete elimination of the dominance of clergymen Governments and regulations, here we find that the Caliph in the scenario that began with the days of the Umayyad and then Abbasid where the Caliph is the "shadow of God on earth," says Sheikh Ali Abdul-Razzaq in his book (Islam and governance) and please note I used the version made by Mohamed Emara and issued in 2000 by the Arab Institute for Studies and Publishing:
“According to them – he mean Sunni Muslims jurists talking about Caliphate - is like Prophet Muhammad, blessings and peace of the faithful, he have jurisdiction, and complete obedience, and the full power, and has a right to their religion, including assesses the punishments, and performs rituals, and has to the first right to conduct the secular affairs as well, and they have to loved him in all the dignity he was the deputy Messenger of Allah, for Muslims there is no rank higher from the rank of the Messenger of Allah, if someone reach this rank that mean he get the highest where no human have, they have to respect him for his relation to the Messenger of God, and because it is based on the religion of God, and by the dominant, and the Secretary to save it. And religion among Muslims is the most precious thing in this universe they knew, and anyone honored to be in this rank that mean he get the precious and higher one. "On page 114 115
It is noteworthy that this theory of jurisprudence have historic depth, the earthquake has had a mental and psychological, when Mustafa Kamal Ataturk abolished the Caliphate and declared secular republic, therefore, the idea of succession Caliphat of prophet which known bad as it has in spite of all the papal legacy outrageous, inspire the idea of political Islam in his confrontation with the Enlightenment and modernity and innovation, and the scholars of Saudi Arabia, who now see the rule of divine Saudi rely on the legitimacy of the idea accepting force to overcome the legacy obtaining the idea from a long tradition of obedience and submission to the authority ruled the name of God and the divine power of governor, and adds Sheikh Ali Abdul Razzaq that Muslims need to hear him and obey the "visible and inwardly," as quoted footnote Albajuri of Aljawhara transferred from the report of Abu Hurayrah the obedience or disobedience of governor or Caliphate meaning as rebellion against God.
Indeed, this jurisdiction of absolute and restrictive by Sharia “Islamic law”, but is in a waiver hierarchy until reach the smaller workers and governors and tax collectors, and this alliance between Sunni jurists and Sultan or Caliphates began in the first Islam with Abu Hurayra and Umayyad, ended with Sheikhs and moftis of Ottoman empire, that long history through 1300 years of empires and struggles, however that the qualities of this ruler (Caliph)-like attributes of God on the one hand, there is no partner with Caliph in his power or jurisdiction, and the Islamic state as a whole are a thing of the Muslims in their religion or something other than the minister, judge, counter or other jobs, all impeccable and agents of the Sultan and his deputies. And only Caliphate or Sultan who can make a decision or opinion for selection and rejection of them, give them the power to the extent that he estimate, and in the limit that choice was "Islam and the rules of government, P 116
Here Sheikh Ali Abdurrazaq, with every free thinker, have right to ask the jurists this necessarily question:
It has been their duty – he mean Sunni Muslims jurists – when they give all that power to the Caliph and raised him to that place and singled him with all these authorities and powers!! To tell us what is the source of this power? Where from get it? who is give it to him? who gift him this rank and thus became the highest site even more than prophet Mohammed himself.
