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.
