Uthman
Uthman ibn Affan was the third caliph of the Islamic community, known for his significant role in the early expansion of Islam and his leadership during a pivotal period. He was a companion of the Prophet Muhammad and is particularly noted for his efforts in compiling the Quran into a single book form. His caliphate was marked by both prosperity and internal discord, ultimately leading to his assassination in 656 CE. Uthman’s contributions to the Islamic state and his legacy as a caliph continue to be subjects of study and discussion among historians and scholars of Islam.
