This article discusses the administration of Umayyads in detail. It presents an overall analysis of merits and demerits of the Umayyad’s reign. Secondary sources have been used for this research while historical comparative analysis method has been adopted to analyze the Muslim rule under the Umayyads. The article finds that despite modification introduced by the Umayyads in the very nature of the Caliphate system they inherited, the Muslim empire expanded to Europe, Asia and Africa.
