The concept of righteous governance can be traced back to ancient Greek thought, specifically to philosophers like Aristotle, Plato, and others. This idea is not exclusive to Islamic religious texts; however, its emergence as a distinct theory in political literature can be attributed to Western theorists. It has been the subject of numerous studies aiming to find alternative systems that align with the requirements of society and the state. This exploration emerged due to the significant failures of despotic and ideological regimes. As a result, the idea of proposing "righteous governance" as a theory with clear characteristics began to gain traction, offering many positive aspects that could be implemented in reality.
