Kingship Of Prophet Suleiman
According to Ghamidi sb the correct method of making a state is (amruhum shura bainahum), but as we know in the history Sulaiman a.s was a messenger and king too. His kingship was very good we know that but in actual it was a kingship. Does it mean although he was a messenger but the thing i mean the state is not according to the statement mentioned above?

The ideal was ‘amruhum shura bainahum‘ in the eyes of God. But in matters of social sciences, application of ideal has been left to the collective social-consciousness of human beings; which goes through a long process of tests and trials and evoultion to reach some level of maturity where they can apply that ideal at a collective level. In case of Bani-Israel, it was them who asked for kingship from Prophet Samuel and later on, Taloot, prophet Dawd (sws) and Prophet Sulaiman became the successive Kings and this traditon continued for 500 years approx.
This point has been discussed at length in the following video by Ghamidi Sahab, please refer to the video below 56:02 to 1:21:22
