Caliphate, the political-religious state comprising the Muslim community and the lands and peoples under its dominion in the centuries following the death (632 CE) of the Prophet Muhammad. Ruled by a caliph (Arabic khalīfah, successor), who held temporal and sometimes a degree of spiritual authority, the empire of the Caliphate grew rapidly through conquest during its first two centuries to include most of Southwest Asia, North Africa, and Spain. Dynastic struggles later brought about the Caliphate's decline, and it ceased to exist as a functioning political institution with the Mongol destruction of Baghdad in 1258.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the rise of the Caliphate under Abu Bakr, Muhammad's successor. Beginning with Muhammad's death, the author traces Abu Bakr's assumption of leadership and his efforts to maintain the unity of Islam amidst widespread rebellion.

It also delves into the challenges faced by Abu Bakr, including defections, apostasy, and the threat of invasion, and analyzes his resolute leadership in overcoming these obstacles. Through detailed accounts of battles, political maneuvers, and the evolving dynamics of the early Islamic community, the book sheds light on the complexities of this pivotal period and the foundations laid for the future expansion of the Caliphate.
