modern world's democracy vs Islamic democracy

Wel there is quite a big difference between Islamic ideology of democracy and that of modern world. Though the word is same in meanings in both systems i.e; islamic and modern world but different in functioning. Islamic democracy is known as Majilis e shura'a, the Islamic religious body of advisory council. The leader selected by this shura is known as khalif, and he is elected by the decision of whole body on the basis of His(one's) best knowledge of Islamic rules.
Comparing with Islamic democracy the modern world democracy is not based on having knowledge of islamic rules and regulations, whereas one should have mundane knowledge in western countries. In my knolwledge the modern world democracy is not suitable in islamic countries. However some rules of Islamic democracy are observed to be applied in some of western countries too. For the best socialism, Islamic democracy can play a better role if applied.
As the modern world democracy is ruled in majority that's how muslim countries are failed to have a strong democratic role in global power and it lacks real soul of islamic democracy.
