Much of what appears in the culture and historical literature of Islamic political thought revolves around the frequent use of three key terms: amr, hukm, and sayf. This study analyzes these three foundational concepts in order to explore, from a new perspective, the tripartite structure of amr (governance/authority), hukm (judgment, adjudication, and the conferral or withdrawal of legitimacy), and sayf (military and coercive power) in the formation and continuity of the state and government.
The theoretical framework of this article is derived from Qur’anic verses, narrations, and historical models of governance. The central argument maintains that these three elements constitute essential, shared, and interdependent pillars within the systemic structure of any governing institution—from the smallest social unit, such as the family, to the largest empires. Consequently, impairment in any one of these pillars inevitably affects the others, and over time, such imbalance leads to the decline and eventual collapse of governments.
The findings indicate that the primary cause of deviation and decline in governments is not the absence of these pillars, but rather the emergence of dysfunction and instability in their relationships and proper performance. Preventing destructive consequences depends on implementing corrective strategies, several of which are proposed in this article.
