Description

Explore the complex history of the medieval Sunni caliphate through this scholarly work. This book provides a comparative analysis of the historiography surrounding the caliphate of Uthman b. Affan and the subsequent revolt against him. By examining different types of historical writing, the text tracks how certain narratives changed over time. The research compares treatments of Uthman found in pietistic literature against those in universal chronicles. It examines the process by which critical accounts were gradually replaced by accounts portraying Uthman as a saintly companion of the Prophet Muhammad. This study is essential for readers interested in how religious and political tensions influenced the way history was recorded and preserved. Through an analysis of various authors across different genres and time periods, this volume reveals how historians expressed personal perspectives on major shifts in the Islamic world. It serves as a deep look into the evolution of historical memory and the shaping of religious-political narratives in the medieval period.
