  Ali   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
While Ali and the rest of Muhammad's close family were washing the prophet's body for burial, a gathering of Muslims at Saqifah swore allegiance to Abu Bakr as the new leader of the Muslim community.
The Shi'a argue that Muhammad, in accordance with God's command, designated Ali to succeed him, and that Ali was a victim of worldly intrigue; the Sunni consider that the community made a wise choice in uniting behind Abu Bakr.
They also claim that Muhammad indicated in many times and in many ways his belief that Ali was his divinely appointed successor, and cite a number of hadith and verses from the Qur'an in support of that position.
