The book , which translates to Caliphate and Kingship , is a seminal work written by the renowned Islamic scholar Sayyid Abul A'la Maududi. Originally published in Urdu in October 1966, it was written as a direct refutation to another book titled The Caliphate of Mu'awiyah and Yazid by Pakistani scholar Mahmood Ahmad Abbasi. In this work, Maududi articulates the Islamic political ideal and the historical deviations that transformed the pious Caliphate into a kingship.
