THE MODERN QUESTION OF THE CALIPHATE.
About the year 1515 of our era (921 of the Hejra), Selim I. , Padishah ofthe Ottoman Turks and Emperor of Constantinople, finding himself themost powerful prince of his day in Islam, and wishing still further toconsolidate his rule, conceived the idea of reviving in his own personthe extinct glories of the Caliphate. He had more than one claim to beconsidered their champion by orthodox Mohammedans, for he was thegrandson of that Mahomet II. Who had finally
...extinguished the RomanEmpire of the East, and he had himself just ended a successful campaignagainst the heretical Shah of Persia, head of the Sect of Ali. His onlyrivals among Sunite princes were the Sultan el Hind, or, as we call him, the Great Mogul, the Sultan el Gharb, or Emperor of Morocco, and theMameluke Sultan of Egypt, then known to the world as _par excellence_the Sultan.
With the two former, as rulers of what were remote lands of Islam, Selim seems to have troubled himself little; but he made war on Egypt.
