What factors enabled the Umayyad to come to power..??? |
Answer» The Umayyad family had first come to power under the third caliph, Uthman ibn Affan (r. 644–656), but the Umayyad regime was founded by Muawiya ibn Abi Sufyan, long-time governor of Syria, after the end of the First Muslim Civil War in 661 CE. Under the Umayyads, the caliphate territory grew rapidly. | |
