This is permissible as Abu Bakr appointed Omer to be his successor may Allah be pleased with them all!

Wanted to know about ruling in islam about hereditary kingship like what we have in Muslim world now is it halal? Seeing many comments how it is bidah or haram as this was not the practice before . As prophet sws chose ppl according to their level and Iman. The khala fad and leaders were chosen by their merits and it was not inherited or passed on
