The Caliph (خليفة‎; khalīfah) is the head of state in a '''Caliphate''', and the title for the leader of the [[Islamic|Islamic]] [[Ummah]] (body of Muslim believers) who serves as the successor to [[Muhammad]], the founder of [[Islam]], in all matters of political and religious decision making. The word of the caliph is, however, only legally and not theologically binding upon members of the Muslim ummah who consider him legitimate.
