Line 1: {{Infobox official post\|post=<center> Office of the Caliph </center>\|incumbent=[[Selim V]]\|seat=Baghdad, [[Mesopotamian League\|Mesopotamia]]\|first=Abu Bakr\|insignia=\|flag=File:Ottoman Caliphate Banner.png\|width=300px\|deputy=''Scheych-ül-islam'' of the Ottoman State\|residence=Ümideddin Palace, Konja, [[Ottoman Sultanate]]\|formation=8 June 632}} The '''Office of the Caliph''' ([[Western Turkish]]: خلافت ریاست, ''Chilâfet ~~Rijâset~~Rijâseti''; [[Arabic]]: رئاسة الخلافة, ''Riʻāsa al-Ȟilāfat'') is the ecclesiastical office and jurisdiction of the Caliph. The Caliph, simultaneously holding the ceremonial title Servant of the Two Sanctuaries and the political office of [[Ottoman Sultanate\|Ottoman]] emperor, has been the most widely recognized Islamic ~~religious and~~ spiritual authority in the world since the late 18th century. While other claimants to the title of Caliph exist, the vast majority of Musulmans consider the '''Ottoman Caliph''' (خلافت در قونیة, ''Chilâfet der Konja'', 'Caliph-in-Konja') the rightful successor of the Prophet and of the Abbasid caliphs. == See also ==
