Muhammad’s Successors Spread Islam What do we do next? – No named successor Election: Abu Bakr – First Caliph “successor” (leader of Islam) Three more: Umar, Uthman, and Ali Things start to go wrong = jihad Expansion occurs after Bakr is dead By 750 (page 261) 6,000 miles – Muslim success: weak surroundings and persecuted victims, tax Tolerance for people of the book

Yrs after Mohammed

Split of Islam Sunni- Believed the community should select Muhammad's successor. – 83% of Muslims Shi’a- Believed a family member, Ali, who was married to Muhammad's daughter, Fatimah should be the first caliph: spiritual head of Islam. – Today Shi’a is mainly in Iran (90%), Iraq (55%) and Lebanon (~40%) sunnis-vs-shiites/
