A--- Abu Dovud va boshqalar Sa'id ibn Jamhon orqali Safinadan rivoyat qilgan holda aytadilar: Allohning Elchisi ﷺ aytdilar:

A--- Narrated Abu Dawud and others on the authority of Sa'id Ibn Jamhan after Safinah as saying: Allah's Messenger (Peace be upon him) says:

Nubuvvatdan keyingi xalifalik o‘ttiz yil davom etadi, so‘ngra Alloh xohlagan kimsaga podsholik ato etadi. (At-Termiziy, Abu Dovud, Ahmad va al-Hokim rivoyat qilgan)

"The Caliphate after Prophethood will last for thirty years, then Allah grants kingship to whom He wills." (At-Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud, Ahmed and Al-Hakim)

Bu shuni anglatadiki, bu davr Abu Bakr, 'Umar, 'Usmon va 'Ali davrlarini o'z ichiga oladi, Allohning ulardan barchasidan rozi bo'lsin. Abu Bakr ikki yil uch oy, 'Umar o'n yil olti oy, 'Usmon o'n ikki yil, 'Ali to'rt yil to'qqiz oy hukmronlik qildilar, o'ttiz yilning to'liqligi esa Al-Hasan ibn 'Aliga berilgan bay'at bilan yakunlanadi, bu olti oy.

This implies the period lasted by Abu Bakr, 'Umar, 'Uthman and `Ali, may Allah be pleased with them all. Abu Bakr stayed for two years and three months, 'Umar for ten years and six months, 'Uthman for twelve years, `Ali for four years and nine months, and in completion of the thirty years comes the Bai'ah (Pledge of allegiance) given for Al-Hasan Ibn 'Ali, that is six months.

Birinchi musulmon podshosi Mu'oviya (Alloh undan rozi bo'lsin) edi, u ularning barchasi orasida eng yaxshisi edi. Keyin esa Umar ibn Abdulaziz kelguniga qadar qattiq va adolatsiz saltanat davom etdi. Darhaqiqat, sunniy musulmon olimlari uni beshinchi xalifa deb hisoblaganlar, chunki u (oldingi to'rt xalifaning) aynan ularning yo'lidan borgan.

The first Muslim king was Mu'awiyah (May Allah be pleased with him) who was the best among them all. Then, followed a severe and unjust kingship, up till the time when `Umar Ibn 'Abdel'Aziz came. Indeed, the Sunni Muslim scholars regarded him as the fifth Caliph as he followed their (the previous four ones) very steps.
