For my research question on the Islamic Empire I chose “How was the islamic empire governed immediately after Muhammad’s Death?” I think this was a very good question because of how many events happened when his death occurred. Some of the events lasted a short time when the people of islam didn’t have a leader. However, when they finally chose a new leader they were called the Caliphs.

This website helped me out with getting the information for Umar it was probably the longest text most of it wasn’t even useful to me because it was mostly all about him before the death of Muhammad or else I wasn’t reading it correctly.
