He was the first male to convert to Islam and one of the closest companions of the Prophet. Following the Prophet's death, he was passed over for leadership of the community and he instead spent most of his time farming. He was briefly Governor of Medina in 635 and may have been Chief Judge for the Second Rashidun Caliph from 635 to 644. He was a member of the council which chose the Third Rashidun Caliph in 644, who was killed by rebels in 656. `Ali was selected as the new Caliph, but his decision not to punish the rebels who had killed his predeccessor led to the First Fitna, a civil war against Mu`āwiyah, the Governor of Syria and a cousin of the Third. The two sides met at the Battle of Ṣiffin, but there was no clear result. `Ali chose to negotiate, outraging many of his supporters, who abandoned him, calling themselves the Kharijites. The war did not go in his favour and he was assassinated by a Kharijite while praying at the Great Mosque in Kufa in 661. He was a Narrator of Hadith, an Islamic scholar, a poet and is claimed as founder by most schools of Sufi mysticism.
