The term Islamic republic has been used in different ways. Some Muslim religious leaders have used it as the name for a theoretical form of Islamic theocratic government enforcing sharia, or laws compatible with sharia. The term has also been used for a sovereign state taking acompromise position between a purely Islamic caliphate and a secular, nationalist republic -- neither a Islamic monarchy nor secular republic. In other cases it is used merely a symbol of cultural identity.
