The Explanation of Basing the Efficiency of the Political System of Islam on Monotheism in Legal Lordliness and Deity

The efficiency of the Islamic political system is one of the most important issues in the present-day Islamic, or rather human society. Regarding the fact that the political system of Islam has come under attack, the explanation of monotheistic foundations and its politico-social capacities is deemed necessary in the realm of research and investigation. The aim of this research is to provide an answer to the question, “What effect does the belief in the Unity of Legal Lordliness and Unity of the Deity have on the efficiency of the political system of Islam? Drawing upon the library-analytic method, the article seeks to cast light on the effect the Unity of the Legal Lordliness and Unity of Deity may have on the efficiency of the Islamic political system. To have a belief in these two forms of unity or monotheism in certain respects such as increase in piety, morality, and spirituality, securing sufficient livelihood, accountability-based freedom, all-embracing justice and independence – which are taken to be the standards of the efficiency of the political system -- pave the way to make the political system efficient. Nonbelief in and noncommitment to these two forms of unity as mentioned above reduces the efficiency of the political system to some considerable extent, though one may have a belief in other grades of monotheism (unity) such as Unity of the Divine Essence and Attributes.
