Part Two - After Muhammad

The legacy of the death of Muhammad, and Rashidun - the age of the Four Caliphs

The prophet Muhammad peacefully established the Haj at Mecca, but he died, without naming a successor, a few months after delivering a sermon there on the egalitarian and communal philosophy behind Islam. This programme explores what happened next, with the age of the Four Caliphs.
