Some people tie the ruling on a land being Islamic to the ruler who rules by what Allah has revealed. Is this correct?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Some people mean that they tie... Islam in ruling by what Allah has revealed, saying that... by what Allah has revealed... Is this part of Islam?

The Shaykh : This is due to their ignorance. An Islamic land is one in which the rituals of Islam are established: the prayers, the call to prayer, fasting, the festivals, and the like. As for the fact that a ruler contradicts the ruling by ruling other than by what Allah has revealed, this does not take it out of being an Islamic land. Yes.
