Question 1
Who was claimed to be a prophet during the period of Hazrat Abu Bakar Siddique (RA)?
  • Muselima Kazzab✔️
  • Asvad Ansi
  • Talhea Bin Khavaled
  • Sajah Binle Khavaled
Correct Answer Explanation
Musaylimah al-Kadhdhab (the Liar) was the most prominent false prophet during the caliphate of Hazrat Abu Bakr (RA). After the Prophet's (PBUH) death, several individuals claimed prophethood. Musaylimah claimed to be a prophet in the region of Yamama and gathered a large following. Hazrat Abu Bakr (RA) fought against these false prophets in the Ridda Wars (Wars of Apostasy). Musaylimah was eventually killed in the Battle of Yamama in 632 CE.
