Muhammad's elected successors, known as the "Rightly Guided Caliphs" (Rashidun), are called so because they are believed to have followed his example and teachings closely, leading the Muslim community with justice and integrity. The first four caliphs—Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman, and Ali—are particularly revered for their leadership during the formative years of Islam, their commitment to upholding Islamic principles, and their efforts in expanding the Muslim state while maintaining unity among believers. Their decisions and governance set a precedent for future Islamic leadership.
