Omar

2nd Rashidun caliph from 634 to 644

Omar
Umar ibn al-Khattab (Arabic: عُمَر بْن ٱلْخَطَّاب, romanized: Umar ibn al-Khaṭṭāb; c. 584 – 644), also spelled Omar, was the second Rashidun caliph, ruling from August 634 until his assassination in 644. He succeeded Abu Bakr (r. 632–634) and is regarded as a senior companion and father-in-law of the Islamic prophet Muhammad. Initially, Umar opposed Muhammad, who was his distant Qurayshite kinsman. However, after converting to Islam in 616, he became the first Muslim to openly pray at the Kaaba. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umar
