Description
Umar Bin ‘Abd Al-Aziz is a richly detailed biography that explores the remarkable leadership, character, and legacy of one of Islam’s most celebrated caliphs. Often referred to as the Mujaddid (reviver) of his era, Umar ibn ‘Abd Al-Aziz (RH) revived justice, equality, and compassion throughout the Muslim world during his short but impactful rule.
This book highlights the foundational principles upon which Umar ibn ‘Abd Al-Aziz governed: justice, mutual consultation, social equality, and the protection of people’s rights and freedoms. Through authentic historical narratives, readers gain insight into his extraordinary wisdom, humility, eloquence, and devotion to Islamic values.
For English-speaking readers, this biography fills a significant gap by offering one of the first comprehensive works focusing not only on his life, but also on his profound reforms and contributions to Islamic governance.
