In Islamic culture, the term ulu'l-amr (أولو الأمر) refers to "those charged with authority or responsibility or decision, or the settlement of affairs".[1] It is referenced in the 59th verse of the Surat An-Nisā' section of the Qur'an, and outlines the necessity of Islamic followers to obey the control of Allah, Muhammed and those in authority as long as they too obey Allah and Muhammad. They are seen as the leaders and scholars of Islamic culture.[2][3][4][5][6]
