Ömer’le ilgili doğrudan veya dolaylı çalışmalar ele alınmıştır. Birinci bölümde Seyf b.

Son olarak Seyf’in tarihçi kimliği incelenmiş ardından hadis âlimlerinin ve diğer araştırmacıların Seyf’le ilgili görüşlerine yer verilmiştir. “Üsâme b. Zeyd Ordusunun Suriye’ye Gönderilmesi ve Ridde Savaşları” isimli ikinci kısımda ilk olarak Üsame’nin ordusunun Suriye’ye gönderilmesi ve irtidat tartışmaları ele alınmıştır. Daha sonra mürtedlerle yapılan savaşlara yer verilmiştir. Üçüncü kısımda fetihlerden bahsedilmiştir. Bu bölümde ilk olarak Hz. Ebu Bekir döneminde gerçekleşen Irak ve Suriye fetihleri ele alınmış ardından Hz. Ömer döneminde gerçekleşen Irak-İran, Suriye, Mısır ve Cezayir’in fetihlerine yer verilmiştir. Son olarak Hz. Osman devrinde gerçekleşen fetihlerden bahsedilmiştir. Hz. Osman’ın şehid edilmesiyle başlayan ve Cemel Vak‘ası’nı da içine alan olaylar ise çalışmanın dördüncü bölümünde ele alınmıştır. Bu kısımda ilk olarak Hz. Osman’ın şehid edilişi, Abdullah b. Sebe ve faaliyetleri merkeze oturtularak incelenmiştir. Ardından Hz. Ali’nin halife seçilmesi, yeni halifeye karşı Hz. Âişe önderliğinde oluşturulan muhalefet ve bu muhalefet sonucunda gerçekleşen Cemel savaşı ile ilgili rivayetlere değinilmiştir. Bu kısımda da diğer bölümlerde olduğu gibi Seyf b. Ömer’in rivayetleri diğer kaynaklarla mukayese edilerek değerlendirilmiş ve varılan sonuçlar maddeler halinde yazılmıştır.
