Almost all of the rulers the Salaf revolted against were still Muslims and had not abandoned ruling by the Shari'ah, whereas the ones today have https://twitter.com/pathoftawhid1/status/1198000993142751233
An-Nawawi related from al-Qadi ‘Iyad that he said, “The scholars have formed a consensus that the leadership (imamah) is not to be contracted to a kafir and that if disbelief comes from him, he is to be removed… So if kufr and altering the shar’ or bid‘ah comes from him,
then he has left the status of authority and his (right) of obedience falls and it becomes obligatory upon the Muslimin to rise up against him and remove him and set up a just leader, if that is possible for them.
And if that is not possible except for a group, then it is obligatory upon them to rise up and remove the kafir” (Sharh Sahih Muslim).
