has mentioned that he was buried in a district of Shiraz.[1]<br />

7. Ja‘far<br />

His Kunya was Abu al‐Hasan. His mother was a slave‐wife.[2] He was known as al‐Khawari, a<br />

village in Sacred Mecca. He often lived in the village, so he and his children were ascribed to it. So<br />

they were called al‐Khawariyun. They were also called al‐Shajariyun, for they stopped at the<br />

places with many trees.[3] He had fourteen children: six males, and eight females.[4]<br />

8. Al‐Hasan<br />

His mother was a slave‐wife. He had very few children. Abu Nasr al‐Bukhari has said: “Al‐Hasan b.<br />

Musa had a boy called Ja‘far whose mother was a slave‐wife. It is said that he had children; and<br />

something other than that was said.” Ibn Tabtaba and Abu al‐Hasan al‐‘Umari have said: “Al‐<br />

Hasan b. Musa had only one boy called Ja‘far, who had three boys: Muhammed, al‐Hasan, and<br />

Musa.”[5] The books of history and genealogy have not specified when and where he died.<br />

9. Al‐Husayn<br />

He was nicknamed al‐Sayyid ‘Ala’ al‐Din.[6] He was a Sayyid of great importance and with a high<br />

social position. The proof of his high position is the narration of al‐Bizanti, in which it has been<br />

mentioned that he asked Imam al‐Jewad: “Which of your uncles is the kindest to you?” “Al‐<br />

Husayn,” he replied. Imam al‐Rida, peace be on him, said: “By Allah, he is truthful. By Allah, he is<br />

the kindest of them to him and the best of them.”[7] Al‐Husayn related, saying: “We are<br />

Hashimite young men. While we were sitting around my brother Abu al‐Hasan al‐Rida, peace be<br />

on him, Ja‘far b. ‘Umar al‐‘Alawi passed by us. He was shabby. We looked at each other and<br />

laughed at his appearance. So Imam al‐Rida, peace be on him, said to us: ‘In the near future, you<br />

will see that he has a lot of money and many followers.’” He added: “After a month, he became<br />

the governor of Medina; his conditions became well. He along with retainers passed with us.”[8]<br />

Al‐Barqi has said: “Al‐Husayn died in Kufa and buried at al‐‘Abbasiya. His grave is near to Umm al‐<br />

Ba‘rur. Those who are close to it call it the grave of al‐Husayn.”[9] The late Sayyid Ja‘far Aal Behar<br />

al‐‘Ulum has<br />
