Answer:

The term Islamic Empire is more often stated as "Islamic State".

Here is why there is supposed to be an Islamic state:

God gave the Torah to Moses. This was the first time in history that God delivered to a nation of people (Israel) a complete code of law for the running of a nation of believers. The Torah, like the Qur'an, is a constitution for the maintenance of a nation. There are laws governing everything - birth, death, marriage, divorce, diet, dress, economics and even warfare.

Israel was SUPPOSED to live by the Law of Moses, and be as an example to all other nations. Fourteen centuries after Moses, the Jews were pretty much astray from what Moses had intended. So God sent Jesus in order to annouce to Israel that God was now going to give His Law to a new nation. That is what Jesus says in the parable of the landowner.

So when God gave the Qur'an to Muhammad, He established a new nation - a final nation - living under God's Law.

Now it is the Muslims who hold in their hands God's constitution. Other nations are man-made. Whether Capitalist, Communist, or any other form of government, they are all man-made and are all misguided in many ways.

It is the Islamic Nation that is burdened with the task of establishing God's Law on Earth. Afterall, Muhammad is the Messenger of the Covenant who brought the Kingdom of God on Earth that Jesus said was coming after him.
