Prophet Mohammed s.a.w.w. the caliph of his time

Prophet Mohammed s.a.w.w. was not only the spiritual leader of the then mumineen but also was the caliph of the region.

As per inheritance laws practiced everywhere including all sects of Islam: If a person is survived by a daughter and 'sasur' (father in law) then inheritor of all his property/assets will be his daughter and not 'sasur'.

Molatina Fatima a.s. the sole surviving daughter of Prophet Mohammed s.a.w.w. was the natural inheritor of all assets of Prophet Mohammed s.a.w.w. So after Prophet Mohammed s.a.w.w. martyr the caliphate should have passed to its natural inheritor Molatina Fatima a.s.

Etc, etc and etc are not the inheritor of Prophet Mohammed s.a.w.w. assets & titles (caliphate). In none of the Siha-Sitta books, not even a single tradition is present that says if ever Mohammed s.a.w.w. has appointed or authorised them as caliph or representative of Islam.

So after Prophet Mohammed s.a.w.w. the right of caliphate was of Molatina Fatima a.s. and not of Etc, Etc and Etc, they are usurpers.
