II.   Sovereign

The title Shaikh, also known as Sheikh is an 11th Century CE term meaning “great and noble king or savior”.

The term Shaikh (Sheikh) is a title first introduced as the leader of the Druze movement within Islam during the 11th Century. It is derived from two ancient Persian words shah being the shortened official title of a King of Persia from the time of the Achaemenid Empire and King Cyrus the Great (559-530 BCE) and the word ikh meaning “great, noble”. Hence, the literal meaning of sha(h)ik is “great and noble king/savior”.

The term Shaikh (Sheikh) was reclaimed as a singular royal and religious title by Muhammad Ibn Abd-al-Wahab the 18th Century founding patriarch of the House of Saud and religious leader of breakaway Sabbatean Cult known as Wahabism.

The claim that the term Shaikh (Sheikh) is an ancient Arabic honorific bestowed upon older men as a term meaning “elder” is a deliberate and absurd fraud to hide its real meaning.

By the true etymological origin of the title Shaikh to mean “good and noble king” from Persian, the title is a deliberate affront against the founding teachings of the Prophet Muhammad and the faith of Islam.

In honor of the true teachings of the Prophet Muhammad and in accordance with these Canons, the title of Shaikh (Sheikh) is forbidden, reprobate, to be suppressed and not permitted to be revived.
