It does not take strength/power to command well, but it takes strength/power to prevent evil. And its establishment was a part of the official duties of prophet-hood for which Muhammad (SAW) had devoted all his energies. The Charter of Medina was implemented for this purpose; opposition from the enemy eventually forced him to defend himself by being imprisoned inside Medina. Prophet Muhammad (SAW) also missed four prayers while defending the state. He also deported three jewish tribes for violating the Medina Charter. External forces also played a role in the deterioration of the Islamic states’s internal affairs. These were also remedied by Muhammad (SAW) and his Caliphates from time to time.
