Best Answer

It depends on the circumstances and the sect.

If we are talking religiously, the terms used are: Caliph, Mullah, Sheikh, Ayatollah (Shiites Only), etc.

If we are talking politically, the terms used are: Sultan, King, Emir, etc.

The name of the ruler of a Muslim country depends of the country constitution and the ruling system. The name could be, as an example, King, President, Sultan, or Prince (or Amir in Arabic).
