تاريخ الخلفاء Tarikhul Khulafa (DKI)

A book on Islamic history that focuses on a specific class of leaders — the Caliphs, from the beginning of the Rightly Guided Caliphate to the end of the Abbasid era. It provides detailed biographies of each Caliph, mentioning the start of their caliphate, their achievements, their impact during their rule, and the governors they appointed in Islamic regions and provinces. It also records the date of each Caliph’s death and their burial place.

The author gives special expanded coverage to the Rightly Guided Caliphs, and the book is considered a very important historical document, as it was written by a great Hadith scholar and historian (Imam as-Suyuti) who carefully verifies reports and ensures accuracy in transmission.
