Why the answer is C, and why the others tempt you.
Abu Bakr al-Siddiq is widely recognised as the first free adult male to accept Islam. Khadijah was the first person overall to embrace Islam, while Ali ibn Abi Talib is credited as the first male child. Abu Bakr's immediate acceptance earned him the title Al-Siddiq, meaning 'the truthful one who believes.'
