Class Discussion: Who will take over after Muhammad dies?

Muhammad & the Rightly Guided Caliphs Islam After Muhammad When Muhammad died in 632, the Muslim community elected a new leader called a caliph (“successor”) The first 4 caliphs all knew Muhammad & promised to stay true to the Qur'an & Muhammad’s message Muhammad & the Rightly Guided Caliphs

The Rightly Guided Caliphs The first caliph was Muhammad’s friend & father-in-law, Abu Bakr: His goal was to keep Muslims united under his gov’t (“caliphate”) His used jihad to control & expand the Muslim empire

The Rightly Guided Caliphs The empire expanded under the next caliphs

The caliphs used the Shari'ah (laws of Islam) to govern the empire During the Rightly Guided Caliphates, the Islamic Empire expanded “Dar-al-Islam” (the areas where Islam is practiced) The caliphs used the Shari'ah (laws of Islam) to govern the empire The caliphate never forced non-Muslims to convert, especially “People of the Book” & allowed religious tolerance as long as taxes were paid to the empire

The Umayyad Empire After Ali’s death in 661 led to a civil war for control of the empire: The clan that came to power started the Umayyad Empire But the rise of the Umayyads led to a division in Islam

Before the Umayyads, caliphs were elected members of Muhammad’s family The Sunni-Shi’a Split Before the Umayyads, caliphs were elected members of Muhammad’s family Shi’a Muslims rejected the Umayyads The Shi’a believe that caliph must come directly from Muhammad’s bloodline Sunni Muslims accepted the rule of the Umayyads The Sunni believe caliphs should follow Muhammad’s example, but don’t have to be relatives

The Umayyad Empire The Umayyads expanded the empire which brought wealth & new Islamic converts

In 750, the Umayyad Empire was overthrown by the Abbasids Under the Abbasids, the Islamic Empire grew to its greatest extent

The Abbasid Empire The Abbasid Empire (750 to 1258): The Abbasid caliphate built a strong gov’t bureaucracy to rule their empire Muslim merchants expanded wealth by trading across Africa, Indian Ocean, and Mediterranean Sea

The Abbasid Empire Wealth from trade led to a golden age, a time of great Muslim achievements in science, math, medicine, & architecture
