Merits of khulafa e rashideen

KHILAFATE RASHIDA

The principle of mutual consultation (Shura ), to discuss affairs was introduced. Shura is made among people concerned with a specific issue, whether personal or social. Shura also elected the Khulafa. After election people offered bai’ah , or the pledge of allegiance, to the caliph. The ruler in turn had to seek advice in matters of policy. The pledge of allegiance to the Caliph was a conditional pledge; Muslims will obey him if he obeyed Allah and his Messenger.The principle of Human Rights was introduced. This included freedom of religion, privacy, good family life and legal protection.A welfare state was introduced. It fulfilled the basic right to food, shelter education and health. The treasury or bait ul-maal  was a trust of the Ummah.

Hazrath  Abu Bakr (Ra). (11 to 13. A.H.) 2 Years. 632 to 634.

Hazrath Umar (Ra). (13 to 24. A.H.) 11 Years. 634 to 644.

Hazrath Uthman (Ra). (24 to 35. A.H.) 11 Years. 644 to 656.

Hazrath Ali (Ra). (35 to 40. A.H.) 5 Years. 656 to 661.

Hazrath Imam Hasan (RA) -6 months(29years and 6 months +six months=30 years)

The Holy Prophet ﷺ also stated that the reign of the rightful Khulafa  would be for 30 years.

The Holy Qur’aan also makes reference to the Khulafa in 48/29.Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and those who are with him (refers to Abu Bakr) are hard against the unbelievers (Umar ibn al-Khattaab), merciful one to another (Uthman ibn Affaan), you see them bowing and falling prostrate (Ali ibn Abi Talib)….This commentary was given by Hazrath Jafar son of Muhammad son of Ali son of Hussain son of Ali (RadiAllahu anhu ajmain).

He made flow two seas that look to be joined.

And there is Carriers in between them that one can not excel the other.

Which then, of the favours of your Lord will you twain deny?

There comes out from them pearl and the Corel. (55/19-22)

Hazrath Anas bin Maalik (RadiAllahu anhu) in his commentary on these verses say the two seas here referred to allegorically represent Ali (RadiAllahu anhu) and Fatimah (RadiAllahu anha) and their Pearls and Corals are Hassan and Hussain. (RadiAllahu anhu ajmain)

Love for the Prophets family is enjoined by Allah in the Qur’aan in 42/23.

 …Say you, “Iask not of you any wage for it but affection in respect of kinship”…

Qur’aan commentators are unanimous that ‘ the next of kin’ here intended are Ahl al-Bait.

The spiritual unity of the Panjattan Paak, is a symbol of the unity of all Muslims. It is for the sake of this unity in faith and commitment to Allah and truth (which is Islam), that Imam Hussain sacrificed his life. He refused a partisan Islam, and leadership devoid of morality (Adab) and love (Ishq).

4/69   – Those who submit to Allah and His Beloved Prophet (establishing harmony with them), are blessed with the companionship (spiritual fellowship) of the Prophets, the Intensely Truthful and Sincere (Servants of Allah), The Martyrs (who are Witnesses to Allah), and the possessors of sound Godliness in general. Ah! What a beautiful companionship! This is a bounty from Allah, and He suffices as Knower. (And because Allah affirms it, don’t question it.)

Sahaba’s extreme love for the Prophet ﷺ

The fact is that love and respect of the Prophet ﷺ is a compulsory part of our faith, and lack of it cannot be compensated even by billions of good acts.

Why they have “wasted” time in collecting and narrating such Ahadith, if we should focus ONLY on the orders of Shariah?
