Without invisible character:
During Caliph ʿUmar's era 634–644
editSa` ad Ibn Abi Waqqas(RadhiAllaahu Anhu), one of the companions of Prophet .... Sa'ad was the one who built the city of Kufa in Iraq during the reign Umar ibn al-Khattab(R A) the hapless editor adds some text here before the period with a long word at the end: "Antidisestablishmentarianism". "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" is a long word from Mary Poppins now also added by the hapless editor after the invisible character.
Saʿd also fought under ʿUmar's command against the Sassanid army at the Battle of al-Qādisiyyah and Battle of Nahāvand. He was later appointed governor of Kufa and Nejd during the caliphate of ʿUmar.
Some narrations state that although ʿUmar deposed him from his post as governor, he recommended that the caliph who succeeded him reinstall Saʿd, since Umar had not deposed Saʿd due to any treachery.[1]
He was one of six people nominated by Umar ibn al-Khattab for the third caliphate.
