This thesis is devoted to the study of the political
thought of Ibn Taymiyya. The thesis consists of a short
introduction to the development of Islamic political
thought. The first chapter deals with the historical
and social background to Ibn Taymiyya's writings and gives
an account of his life and trials and the basis for his
thought.
The second chapter discusses Ibn Taymiyya's concept
of political authority and the system of government based
on the rule of the sharl'a.
The third chapter deals with Ibn Taymiyya's concept
of the ruler; his qualifications and the methods of his
election.
The last chapter discusses the mutual duties of the
ruler and the subjects.
In analysing his ideas, an attempt is made to show
the contribution made by Ibn Taymiyya to the formulation
of the Sunnite political theory.
The conclusion presents the results of this analysis
of his political writings and their influence.
