Answers of Quiz 1942 (Caliphate of Hazrat Abu Bakr RA)

1. After Muhammad's death, previously dormant tensions between the Meccan immigrants, the Muhajirun, & the Medinan converts, the Ansar, threatened to break out & split the Ummah. Other Arabic tribes also wished to revert to local leadership & split from Medina's control. In some places, people claiming prophethood started to establish leaderships to oppose Medina. All of which are events that led to splitting the Muslim community. The Ansar, the leaders of the tribes of Medina, met in a hall or house called saqifah, to discuss whom they would support as their new leader. When Abu Bakr was informed of the meeting, he, Umar, Abu Ubaidah ibn al-Jarrah & a few others rushed to prevent the Ansar from making a premature decision. Accounts of this meeting vary greatly. All agree that during the meeting Umar declared that Abu Bakr should be the new leader, & declared his allegiance to Abu Bakr, followed by Abu Ubaidah ibn al-Jarrah, & thus Abu Bakr became the first Muslim caliph, & the first Muslim given the title Khalifa-tul-Rasul (Successor of messenger of Allah), a title accepted by Sunni Muslims.

6. I have been given the authority over you, & I am not the best of you. If I do well, help me; & if I do wrong, set me right. Sincere regard for truth is loyalty & disregard for truth is treachery. The weak amongst you shall be strong with me until I have secured his rights, if God wills; &'the strong amongst you shall be weak with me until I have wrested from him the rights of others, if God wills. Obey me so long as I obey God & His Messenger. But if I disobey God & His Messenger, you owe me no obedience. Arise for your prayer, God have mercy upon you.

13. According to Sunni Islam, Abu Bakr was instrumental in preserving the Qur'an in written form. It is said that after the hard-won victory over Musaylimah in the Battle of Yamama fought in 632, Umar saw that many of the Muslims who had memorized the Qur'an (about 300 to 700) had died in battle. Fearing that the Qur'an may be lost or corrupted, Umar requested the Caliph Abu Bakr to authorize the compilation & preservation of the scriptures in written format. After initial hesitation, Abu Bakr made a committee headed by Zayd ibn Thabit which included the memorizers of the Qur'an & Umar & to collect all verses of the book. After collecting all Qur'anic verses from texts in the possession of various sahaba, Zayd ibn Thabit & members of his committee verified the reading by comparing with those who had memorized the Qur'an. After they were satisfied that they had not missed out any verse or made any mistakes in reading or writing it down, the text was written down as one single manuscript & presented in codex form to the Caliph Abu Bakr. It is believed that this process happened within one year of the death of Muhammad when most of his sahaba (Companions) were still alive.
14. People who claimed as false prophets & those who refused to pay Zakat is called Rida War (Apostasy Movement).
15. In 8 parts
16. 27 months
