Abu Bakr al-Siddiq

Close companion of the Prophet and the first caliph (r. 632–634 CE); his succession is understood differently in Sunni and Shia tradition. Usd al-Ghaba's entry on him (no. 3067) describes him as one of Quraysh's leaders in the Jahiliyya who held their bloodwits, companion of the Prophet in the cave and the Hijra, and caliph after him. Abu Nu'aym's Ma'rifat entry on his lineage, birth and death has al-Zuhri give his name as Abd Allah ibn Uthman ibn Amir ibn Amr ibn Ka'b, and Aisha report that Abu Quhafa had three sons of whom one he named Atiq, Mu'tiq and Mu'taq.
