Best Answer

Hazrat Muhammad (SAW) had been appointing different Companions belonging to different tribes as Commanders of his armies and Governors of Madina Munawara during his life time. During his final illness, he appointed Hazrat Abu Bakr to lead the prayer in his place. He was his closest friend and father-in-law, the first man who believed in his prophet-hood. After the death of the Prophet (SAW) the Companions RAU chose Hazrat Abu Bakr RAU their Caliph. He ruled the Muslims for about 2 and a half years. He nominated Hazrat Omar RAU as the Second Rightful Caliph. No one challenged his choice. History shows how apt, suitable, and the best choice he had made. Hazrat Ali RAU had been an active and respectable advisor of these two Rightful Caliphs.
