This paper uses survey data from a comparative study of five Muslim societies to examine the level of corresponding trust in religious institutions. The author states that the evidence of the study reveals that the level of trust in religious institutions tends to be significantly higher in differentiated Muslim social formations. The paper concludes that an Islamic state may not always be in the best interest of Islamic institutions or the religious elite.
