Hi there!

I'm glad you've joined Brainly.


During the rise and peak of Islam, a very structured and organized law system was established based according to the Quran and religion which had been highly depended upon. Due to this, many people did not commit crimes, steal, or lie, knowing that their Lord may punish them. Therefore, this all comes down to establish the very core of the matter: the caliph set laws and punishments which were all agreed upon by scholars, community elders, and respected Muslims.

The caliphs of that age had a system which they called Hokm Islami. This translates to Islamic rule without force. Later, the Ottomans established the forced rule for all, based on certain groups and religion types.


Abu Bakr set many limits on himself as other Caliphs had done. This included equality of wealth for all. There had been a treasury which they called "Bait Ul-Mal" , which the Caliph was not allowed to take money from, unless it was to help the community or poor folks. The Caliph also limited himself to water and basic food to live. He lived in a humble home as other men did.


Aside from money, the Caliph Abu Bakr also made sure that he did not order anything unless it was backed by the Quran, and agreed upon.



I hope this helped. If not, please comment below and I'd certainly be glad to elaborate and add to this description. Thanks! :)

koban [17]

Fought eighteen days apart in the fall of 1777, the two Battles of Saratoga were a turning point in the American Revolution. On September 19th, British General John Burgoyne achieved a small, but costly victory over American forces led by Horatio Gates and Benedict Arnold. Though his troop strength had been weakened, Burgoyne again attacked the Americans at Bemis Heights on October 7th, but this time was defeated and forced to retreat. He surrendered ten days later, and the American victory convinced the French government to formally recognize the colonist’s cause and enter the war as their ally.

Importance of the Battle of Saratoga

The word Saratoga is shorthand for two battles that gave the coup de grace to the 1777 British invasion from Canada during the American Revolutionary War. After capturing Fort Ticonderoga with almost laughable ease, the British army, led by overconfident General John Burgoyne, crawled south at a tortoise pace, giving the rattled Americans time to regroup under Horatio Gates. To support him, General George Washington sent Benedict Arnold, his best infantry commander; Colonel Daniel Morgan and his regiment of Virginia riflemen and two brigades of Continentals from the Hudson Highlands. They raised Gates’s strength to about sixty-five hundred men. Equally important was Colonel Thaddeus Kosciusko, the Polish engineer, who built excellent field fortifications on Bemis Heights overlooking the Hudson River.

The British goal in the Battle of Saratoga was to control Upstate New York in order to isolate New England from the Southern colonies. While Burgoyne made his way slowly through the forests around Lake George, General Howe and his men, traveling North from New York City, stopped over to conquer Philadelphia before continuing north. George Washington’s army took advantage of Howe’s detour, beating a quick retreat to York, where they stopped Howe from meeting up with Burgoyne.

Did you know? To celebrate the American victory at Saratoga, the Continental Congress issued a proclamation for a national day "for solemn Thanksgiving and praise," the first official holiday observance with that name.

The Battle of Freeman’s Farm

On September 19, 1777, Burgoyne attacked. The fiery Arnold prodded Gates out of his defensive mentality, winning permission to lead Morgan’s men and Henry Dearborn’s light infantry into the woods to block a British flanking column. For most of the afternoon, a furious struggle raged around and across a clearing called Freeman’s Farm; Arnold poured in fresh regiments until the jittery Gates broke off the action, leaving the battered British in possession of the ground in what came to be known as the Battle of Freeman’s Farm.

The Battle of Bemis Heights

After fortifying his camp and waiting in vain for reinforcements from New York, Burgoyne attempted another assault on October 7, 1777. Ignoring orders from the jealous Gates to remain in his quarters, Arnold joined the fighting and led an attack that captured key strong points, forcing the British to retreat to Saratoga (modern Schuylerville). There, surrounded by a belated outpouring of militia, Burgoyne surrendered ten days later.ance to enter the conflict on the Americans side.
