Abu Bakr, the primary caliph, lives no greater than  years after the loss of life of Muhammad. in spite of this, inside this short time Muslim armies have begun their outstanding enlargement, subduing the entire of Arabia and striking as a ways north as Palestine. 

Abu Bakr is succeeded in 634 with the aid of Omar (any other father-in-law of Muhammad), who in 638 captures Jerusalem. Six years After Hazrat Omar R.A is stabbed and killed in the mosque at Medina - for personal reasons, it appears, by using a Persian craftsman dwelling in Kufa.
