Rashidun Caliphs
The Rashidun Caliphs were the first four leaders after Prophet Muhammad’s death, guiding the early Islamic community from 632 to 661 CE. They are known for their just leadership, enacting policies that expanded the Islamic empire and established strong foundations of governance and Islamic law. Their caliphate helped unify diverse groups and spread Islam beyond Arabia. These leaders—Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman, and Ali—are respected for their piety, wisdom, and dedication to maintaining the principles of Islam during a critical period of growth and consolidation.
