Each country has a different notion. Pakistan, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan...the commonality is a republican poltical structure, with a clause in the consitution citing Islam as a source of law, if not the penultimate source of law.

All of these countries that you quoted are very different from each other, with perhaps the only commonality being that the predominant religion is Islam. How then would you define an "Islamic republic" ? Or are we saying that the definition is broad enough to accomodate a wide variety of politico-religious systems ?

Re: Is Pakistan an Islamic Republic?
meaning what.....?
hey i just wanted to make sure i got it right about a country only being called islamic when complete sharia law is enforced. sometimes muslims themselves get 'muslim majority' and 'islamic state' mixed up
Meaning it was created on the name of religion - Islam - thus in near future it will be an Islamic State ....
