From the wiki:

Only Muslims with iqta or tribal government are affected by decadence. Muslims living under other government types, such as nomadism or merchant republics, do not use the decadence mechanic.

I guess your government is still Imperial, which is not Iqta or Tribal, so you don't have decadence. Nice!
