The final chapter of the Rightly Guided Caliphate is one of the most painful and powerful moments in Islamic history. After the assassination of Uthman ibn Affan, the Muslim world descended into chaos, forcing Ali ibn Abi Talib to lead during a time of division, civil war, and impossible decisions. From the Battle of the Camel to Siffin, this is the story of a leader trying to hold the Ummah together while everything around him collapsed. But the story doesn’t end there. Hasan ibn Ali, the grandson of the Prophet ﷺ, made a decision that would change history—choosing unity over power and ending the conflict in what became known as the Year of Unity. This episode of Muslim Atlas by OnePath Network explores leadership, sacrifice, extremism, and the timeless lesson that true strength lies not in domination, but in preserving the Ummah.
