Veteran scholar Sir William Muir's history of the Caliphate. A Caliph is the spiritual head and temporal ruler of the Islamic state. In principle, Islam is theocratic: when Muhammad the Prophet died, a caliph (successor) was chosen to rule in his place. The caliph had temporal and spiritual authority but was not permitted prophetic power; this was reserved for Muhammad. The caliph could not, therefore, exercise authority in matters of religious doctrine. 1417948906 1865. This is a rhyming story in Olde English based on the Bible narrative of Genesis and Exodus, here and there varied by the introduction of a few of those sacred legends so common in the mediaeval ages. It is intended to teach the layman how to love and serve God and to live peaceably and amicably with his fellow Christians.
