Prophecies of Prophet Muhammad
peace and blessing be upon him
The caliphate will last thirty years
The Prophet, God’s blessing and peace be upon him, said: “The caliphate will last thirty years after me. After that, God will give His rule to anyone He wants".
Of course this news is of the unseen, and this exactly what happened; the caliphate of Abu Bakr lasted for two years and three months, the caliphate of Umar lasted for ten years and six months, the caliphate of ‘Uthman lasted for twelve years, the caliphate of Ali lasted for four years and nine months and finally the caliphate of Al-Hasan Ibn Ali lasted for six months before he gave up the caliphate to M’uawiyah.
