Is it Fardh to work for khilafah?Does the hadith "He who does not give bayah to a khaleef dies the death of jahiliya" make working for khilfah fardh to remove the sin of dying in ignorance?
Question
Thank you.
Answer
Every Muslim should give allegiance to a person who is appointed as a leader. That is the meaning of the Hadith in reference. It does not order establishing Khilaafat.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
