In an explicit hadith about the forms of governance the Muslim nation would experience, Ḥudhayfah ibn al-Yamān reported that the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “Prophethood will remain amongst you for as long as Allah wishes. Then Allah will remove it whenever He wishes to remove it, and there will be a caliphate upon the prophetic methodology. It will last for as long as Allah wishes it to last, then Allah will remove it whenever He wishes to remove it. Then there will be an abiding dynasty, and it will remain for as long as Allah wishes it to remain. Then Allah will remove it whenever He wishes to remove it. Then there will be forceful monarchy, and it will remain for as long as Allah wishes it to remain. Then He will remove it whenever He wishes to remove it, and then there will be a caliphate upon the prophetic methodology.”304
304 Ibn Ḥanbal, Musnad Aḥmad, 30:355 #18406; a ḥasan (acceptable) chain according to al-Arna’ūṭ in the comments.
