The 3rd Rashidun Caliph, Uthman continued the policy of military expansion carried out by his predecessors, Umar and Abu Bakr. During his reign, the caliphate stretched from Tripolitania, Egypt, and Anatolia to Greater Khorasan and Sindh and reached its greatest extent in 654 CE. However, these conquests were halted when a rebellion began in Egypt which led to his murder, and began the first Fitna.
