Uthman bin Affan: The Third Caliph of Islam
By Bilal Abdul-Kareem. Uthman bin Affan was one of the early men who
accepted Islam in Makkah. From the first moment he became a Muslim, he
put all his wealth under the service of Islam. He spent most of his
resources to satisfy the needs of poor Muslims. Recognizing his
generosity and devotion to Islam, the Prophet (pbuh) told him that his
place would be in Paradise on the Hereafter. He married Ruqayah (pbuh),
the Prophet's daughter. After she died, he married her sister Um Kulthum
for that, the people at that time called him Dhun Nurain, "The Man with
the Two Lights."
