Uthman ibn Affan

Uthman ibn Affan (may God be pleased with him) was the third righteous caliph, known for modesty and generosity, who unified the Qur'an into one standard text.

Uthman ibn Affan (may God be pleased with him), titled Dhu al-Nurayn, was the third caliph and an early convert to Islam. Renowned for his vast generosity, he outfitted the expedition of Tabuk and bought the well of Rumah as an enduring public endowment. His most significant service as caliph was standardizing the Qur'an into a unified text distributed across the regions.
