Military Social Services in the Period of Rashid Caliphs

Social services include practices aiming at the prosperity of all the members of society, especially disadvantaged groups. This term also includes military social services that cover all kinds of support for soldiers and their families. Rashid Caliphs’ period is the period that social service practices that the Prophet had initiated were sustained and developed. During this period that severe and prolonged wars appeared, significant social service activities were carried out for soldiers’ families. In this study, The content of “Social Service” were filled with the applications of the first century of Islam, in the case of the aid to the soldiers' families during the period of Rashid calips. There is no doubt that there are many social activities in the West, from the 7th century to the 19th century. However, in Muslim societies for almost ten centuries, much stronger social service practices have been realized compared to Western societies. Nevertheless, nowadays in academic studies in the field of social services is very little mention of Islamic Civilization. This general approach to the social service community is an important influence on the emergence of our work.
