Assalamalekum wa rahmatulahe wa barakatuhu 
One view  but a fact  is that it is a fard for us muslims to estabilish a Khilafa. So it is obligatory for muslims to work for this cause.  One can give several evidences from the Quran and Hadiths of Mohammad SAW  about the importance of a Khalif to be in existence. The companions of our prophet RA did not bury the dead body of Mohammad SAW  for 2 days and 3 nights  I think  until a khalif was chosen amongst the companions of our prophet Abu Bakr RA I guess was the one to follow Mohammad SAW knowing that it is required by muslims to bury a dead body of muslim as soon as possible. So they ignored a fard.  Thus this indicates the importance of a khilafa.They were probably given a revelation which we dont have or we have and I m wrong . And also when Umar Ibnul Khattab RA  was stabbed by a non-muslim slave in the mosque  before dieing he ordered six companions of our prophet to go and decide amongst you a khalif  amongst these six companions of our prophet was Ali RA and Uthman RA  and he also ordered another one of the companions of Allah and some soldiers to kill them all the six companions  RA if they dont reach a decision within 2 days and 3 nights.  To kill 6 companions of Mohammad  SAW   is in itself a big sin. So we know that the time limit for a khalif to be chosen is 2 days and 3 nights.  If by this time a khalif is not chosen than all muslims are sinful.  Now when was the last time a khilafah existed  It was back in 1924  I think  .  74 yrs without a khalif.  How sinful we are now  In one hadith it says that if a muslim dies without a bayyah to a khalif he dies a death of jahil.  My personnal comment is that all the Ummah our muslim brothers and sisters  should realize this obligation and we should work for it. One may say but HOW  Well if Allah says to perform salah we follow our prophet Mohammad SAW  way and method.  In the same way we should follow our Prophet Mohammad SAW  way in order to estabilish the khalifa. May Allah forgive me if I have have said something false in this comment. Dear brothers and sisters I m not confident with the facts and names which I have mentioned  forgive me if I have made an error or mistake. If could pls point out my errors to me through email. May Allah show us all the straight way and help us.  Assalamalekum
