Abstract: Farag Fouda, a prominent Muslim intellectual who tragically fell victim to the brutality of Islamist fundamentalist groups in Egypt, was one of the key figures who sought to critically examine Islamic history. His exploration and reinterpretation of Islamic political history ultimately made him a target of violent fundamentalist groups in the country. Fouda’s thoughts on the relationship between religion and the state called for a thorough historical inquiry and a new interpretive framework for understanding Islamic political history. This article employs a qualitative-descriptive approach based on library research to analyze Fouda’s critical reflections on the political history of Islam. It aims to present Farag Fouda’s historical perspectives, particularly his critiques of Islamic political history. The article is structured around three main themes: Fouda’s critique of political Islam, his reading of Islamic political history, and his analysis of the historical trajectory from the era of the Khulafa al-Rashidun to the Abbasid period. These thematic categories are formulated based on the assumption that Fouda’s views on the religion-state relationship fundamentally underpin his interpretation of Islamic history. Through his writings, Fouda offers a sharp critique, systematically exposing the weaknesses in the ideological foundations of the Khilafah Islamiyah.
