why did caliphate came into existence?
  • 1 answers

Yogita Ingle 4 years, 2 months ago

  • After Muhammad’s death in 632 AD political authority was transferred to the Umma with no established principle of succession.
  • This created opportunities for innovations but also caused deep divisions among the Muslims.
  • The biggest innovation was the creation of the institution of caliphate, in which the leader of the community (amir al-muminin) became the deputy (khalifa) of the Prophet.
  • The twin objectives of the caliphate were to retain control over the tribes constituting the umma and to raise resources for the state.
  • The main duties of the Khalifas were to safeguard and spread Islam.
