Usman Raziallah Unho was the third caliph of
Muslims. In the reign of Usman R.A the procedure
of ijtihad was carried out exactly the same manner
as that during the lifetime of Holy Prophet
Muhammad (PBUH) and two prior caliphs
:Abubakar R.A and Omer R.A. In order to solve a
new problem ,first Quran was consulted, then
Suunah(practices of Muhammad (PBUH) ,then the
consensus of early two caliphs. Usman R.A would
take guidance from Quran and Sunnah,On
occasions where he would think that the particular
problem has no prominent solution given in Quran
and Sunnah ,he would try to take a logical and
reasonable decision on the basis of rules and
principles of Quran and Sunnah . Usman R.A used
his scholarly consensus to escape Muslim Ummah
from grave problems on many occasion. He fulfilled
his duties as a caliph of Islam.
