Answer: Ali
Ali, also the son-in-law and cousin of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), created much conflict when he took the position of caliphate following the murder of Uthman. The Shi'a branch of Islam, which make about 15% of all Muslims, believes descendants of Ali and Fatima (daughter of the Prophet Muhammad) are the true source of guidance. The Sunni branch believes Ali is the last of the Rightly Guided Caliph, because they are models of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), since they were personally guided by him.

Answer: Bilal
Bilal, a slave to a Meccan paganist, accepted Islam a short while after Muhammad's (PBUH) call to prophethood. After revealing his beliefs, his master tortured him and tried to force Bilal to renounce his views; however, the entire time, Bilal remained steadfast. Abu Bakr, a close friend of the Prophet Muhammad, (PBUH) bought him and set him free. Bilal became the first African and slave convert to Islam. He was also the first muezzin, or a person who recites the adhan, the call to prayer. The adhan is recited in Arabic, but it means:
God is most great! God is most great!
God is most great! God is most great!
I testify that there is no god but God.
I testify that there is no god but God.
I testify that Muhammad is the Prophet of God.
I testify that Muhammad is the Prophet of God.
Hasten to prayer! Hasten to prayer!
