Family tree of Uthman

Uthman ibn Affan (Arabic: عثمان بن عفان) (c. 583 June 17, 656) was the third Caliph of the Ummah, and is regarded by the Muslims as one of the Four Righteously Guided Caliphs. He reigned from 644 until 656. He was the companion of Islamic prophet Muhammad as well as son-in-law of Muhammad. His two daughters were married to Uthman one after another therefore Uthman earned a honorific title "Dhul-Noorayn" (Possessor of Two Lights).
