Not really since the legitimicy of ISIS relies on them being perceived as a legimite caliphate and their own followers think they have a duty to dispose of an ISIS leader who wouldn't run according to the Koran.
Their followers consider the Koran to be pretty clear about the fact that a caliph has to provide free housing and free healthcare to the citzens of the caliphate.
It's also prevents high level ISIS personally to voice that they doubt that the prophecies are true.
ISIS declared the caliphate when an internal faction argued that that if the precursor organisation doesn't declare a caliphate they don't fulfill their Islamic duty.
