Abstract
This research examines the life of the Companion Mohammad Ibn Abi Bakr al-Siddīq (d. 38 AH/658 CE), one of the most controversial figures in early Islamic history. His life, though short, constituted a unique case within the Muslim community. He was from one of the most distinguished families in Makkah, a family that was among the first to embrace Islam. He was the son of Caliph Abu Bakr al-Siddīq, and his mother was the female Companion of the Prophet Asma’ bint Umays (may Allah be pleased with her). Despite all this, Mohammad Ibn Abi Bakr was among those who rebelled against the Caliph of the Muslims, Uthmān Ibn Affān (may Allah be pleased with him). He was accused of murdering him, and at other times of inciting his murder, in addition to other issues raised in historical accounts concerning his life.
This research sheds light on his life, which I wrote after having studied, analyzed, and critiqued the historical accounts and consulted Sunni and Shia Islamic historical sources, striving to come up with the best possible conclusions. The research is made up of an introduction, methodology, several sections, and a conclusion that included the most important findings of the research.

Abstract
Atherosclerotic disease significantly impacts patients with type 2 diabetes, who often present with recalcitrant peripheral ulcers. The angiosome model of the foot presents an opportunity to perform direct angiosome-targeted endovascular interventions to maximise both wound healing and limb salvage. A systematic review was performed, with 17 studies included in the final review. Below-the-knee endovascular interventions present significant technical challenges, with technical success depending on the length of lesion being treated and the number of angiosomes that require treatment. Wound healing was significantly improved with direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty, as was limb salvage, with a significant increase in survival without major amputation. Indirect angioplasty, where the intervention is applied to collateral vessels to the angiosomes, yielded similar results to direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty. Applying the angiosome model of the foot in direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty improves outcomes for patients with recalcitrant diabetic foot ulcers in terms of primary wound healing, mean time for complete wound healing and major amputation-free survival.
