Best Answer

The Umayyads united the many lands and peoples of the Muslim Empire by sharing a common coinage, developing a common language, and building religious architecture. Sharing a common language enabled the Umayyads to bring the diverse cultures of their empire under control. Also, they developed a common coinage, having a common coinage made commerce between parts of the empire easier. And last, they built religious architecture like a mosque so they could praise and give thanks to Allah.

The Umayyads increased protections for minorities, patronized the arts and sciences, built universities and schools of learning, and permitted free association of its subjects. The presence of these privileges brought about the greatest cultural flowering in the Middle Ages.

What Muslim group accepts only the descendants of the Umayyads as rightful rulers of Muslims?

There is no such group. The Umayyads were supported by the Sunnis because they had temporal power, but the Sunnis never had a requirement that the ruler need be a descendant of the Umayyads; their precondition for having the right to rule was having the power to effectively govern.Perhaps this question confuses the Shiite requirement that a rightful ruler be a descendant of Ali ibn AbuTalib. Ali and the Umayyads were enemies and are in-no-way related.
