Historical AnswerThe first caliph was Abu Bakr who ruled from June 632 C.E. to August 634 C.E.Shiite AnswerThe Prophet himself declared, in front of many people returning home from Hadj, that Ali ibn Abi Talib ( A. S. ) Was to be the Imam ( Leader ) after him. However, Abu Bakr got himself elected by a Shoura in contravention to the Prophet's Will. As a result, he was a false Caliph. Ali was finally recognized as Caliph by all Muslims in 656 C.E.
