Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman (born September 1, 1994) is a college basketball point guard for Michigan Wolverines men's basketball who has completed his junior season for the 2016–17 team. Muhammad-Ali played high school basketball in his hometown of Allentown, Pennsylvania, where he was a four-time Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association (PIAA) Class AAA All-State selection.
Abdur-Rahkman was born on September 1, 1994 in Allentown, Pennsylvania to Dawud and Tammy Abdur-Rahkman. He has a sister, Nailah, and a brother, Shahad. Dawud is an assistant men's basketball coach at Muhlenberg College and Shahad played college basketball at East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania. Abdur-Rahkman was a four-time PIAA Class AAA All-State selection—first team (2013, 2014), second team (2011, 2012)—for Allentown Central Catholic High School.
Abdur-Rahkman received over 30 scholarship offers, but mostly from second tier programs. As a result, he waited until the late signing period of his senior season in hopes of getting the attention of a major program. Former college basketball coach Dave Rooney had been a friend of John Beilein when the two were both young coaches and recommended that Beilein consider Rahkman. In addition to his scholarship offers, Abdur-Rahkman also had serious interest from Boston College, Pitt and Penn State and was expected to land at one of those schools had Michigan not made him an offer.
