Khilafat Movement and Ottoman Empire Aspects of Success and Failure for Social Awareness
Keywords:
khilafat, ottoman, Aspects, success, failure, social awarenessAbstract
This study attempts to look at the role of the Khilafat movement in
India earlier this century. The study shows that the abolition of the
institution of the Caliphate in Turkey, and the reasons given by the
Turkish 'ulama for its abolition, provided food for thought to the
Muslim elite in India. Muslims saw in the reasons for abolition of the
Caliphate in Turkey, a process of (ijtihad) in which it was possible to
update the institution of the Caliphate. This reflection made it possible
to demand, from the British government and the Indian National
Congress, an Islamic state. Such a development emerged as the legacy
of the Khilafat movement. The Ottoman Empire was a valuable ruler
on the time and its popularity, peace, justices and leadership as same
like khilafat movement struggle. There were many aspects of its
decline, defeat and division with Sultan Muhammad Fateh the emperor
of Ottoman Empire. After tracing earlier views of the Caliphate this
study looks at the connotations of the historical events, which occurred
in the past, helped with Muslim Leaders in subcontinent. Finally, the
comparative findings of Khilafat Movement and Ottoman Empire show
that in the thinking of twentieth-century Indian Muslims the
institutional rationale of the Caliphate seems to have evolved, from a
one-man Caliph-emperor to a socially elected, democratic caliph state,
from the idea of an individual Caliph to the concept of an Islamic state.
