Those would be the SHIITES/SHI'A.
There was a minority in the early Muslim community that supported the candidacy of 'Ali, the Prophet's son-in-law, this political faction became known as the "Supporters of 'Ali" which in Arabic is Shiat 'Ali, where the modern term "Shiite" comes from. They derived their support from specific hadiths and events that they claimed showed that God had revealed to Mohammed that 'Ali would succeed him.

Why did Michael Jackson change his religion to Muslim?
He adopted his name when he joined the Nation of Islam (which was sort of a different sect of Islam at the time. They had accepted their leader, Elijah Muhammad, as the Messiah/Mahdi, and had some racist ideas as well.), but he converted to Islam in 1975 when Elijah died and his son, Warith Deen Muhammad, took control of the Nation of Islam and reformed it to more mainstream Islam (including rejection of Elijah as God on Earth, rejection of racism, closer ties to the Muslim community, and the Five Pillars of Islam). Muhammad Ali attributes his conversion to this shift toward Islam by the Nation. Perhaps he realized that Islam was much better than the ideas of Elijah. Hope that helps.
