This study aims to establish a comprehensive framework for examining political thought in the Qurʾan. By defining the concept of Islamic political thought and illustrating its reliance on the Qurʾan as a primary source, this research will highlight the methodological considerations essential for interpreting the Qurʾan as a political document. The study will also incorporate recent advancements in Qurʾanic studies and early Islamic history to support the argument for directly engaging with the Qurʾan to uncover its political message and will explore the political dimensions of Islam, including the role of apocalypticism, the concept of a world-state, and the significance of warfare as depicted in the Qurʾan.
