Islamic History Series (The Rightly-Guided Caliphs)

The Islamic History Series (The Rightly-Guided Caliphs) by Dr. Ali Muhammad Sallabi offers a comprehensive, 7-volume exploration of the first four caliphs of Islam. Drawing on the Qur'an, Hadith, and classical sources, this collection provides a detailed look at the foundational era of Islamic governance and spirituality.

Each volume focuses on a key figure: Abu Bakr As-Siddeeq, whose leadership preserved the Qur'an; 'Umar Ibn Al-Khattab (2 volumes), known for his justice and administrative reforms; 'Uthman Ibn 'Affan, who standardized the Qur'anic text; Ali Ibn Abi Talib (2 volumes), celebrated for his knowledge and wisdom; and Al-Hasan Ibn 'Ali, whose diplomacy helped unify the Muslim community.
