Ali Akbar ibn Hasan ibn Ali ibn Muhammad

Sayyid Ali Akbar was an Islamic saint, the son of the eleventh Shia Imam, Hasan al-Askari and the brother of the twelfth Imam, Muhammad al-Mahdi. His existence is disputed and rejected by Shi'ite historians because of contemporary political conflicts between the divine appointment to Imamah of his father and brother and because of discord with the feudal leadership of the Abbasids.[1][2][3]

Controversy

The genealogical records of some Middle Eastern families, especially from Persia and Khorasan, indicate that Hasan al-Askari had a second son, Ali Akbar[4] [5]. However, this is disputed by followers of the Shi'ite and Sunni faiths.[6]

In his Usul, al-Kafi wrote, "Ali confirms the claim that Hasan al-Askari had more than one wife, in addition to slave girls, with whom he had relations" and, "When the caliph received news of Imam Hasan al Askari's illness, he instructed his agents to keep a constant watch over the house of the Imam...he sent some of these midwives to examine the slave girls of the Imam to determine if they were pregnant. If a woman was found pregnant she was detained and imprisoned."[1][7][3]

Descendants

According to the earliest reports as cited below from official family tree documents and records, Imam Hasan al-Askari fathered seven children and was survived by six.[8] [9] The names of his illustrious biological children were: Imam Muhammad al-Mahdi, Musa, Ja’far, Ibrahim, Fatima, Ayesha, and ‘Ali, sometimes referred to as Akbar, Asghar or Abdullah. [10] [11] [12] [13] Еarly books on sayyid genealogy also mention that the descendants of Sayyid Ali Asgar ibn Imam Hassan Askari lived in the city of Sabzevar in shiites Iran.[14][15]

Notable descendants of Ali Akbar include the eleventh generation Sufi saints, Maudood Chishti and Bahauddin Naqshband.[16][17][18] One descendant after eighteen generations was Hazrat Ishaan. Maternal descendants of imam Hasan al-Askari and Hazrat Ishaan included the brothers, Sayyid Mir Jan, Sayyid Mahmud Agha and Sayyid Mir Fazlullah, the Chief Justice of the Emirate of Afghanistan. And paternal descendant of imam Hasan Al-Askari Jamāl al-Dīn al-Afghānī also known as Sayyid Jamāl ad-Dīn Asadābādī and commonly known as Al-Afghani - a political activist and Islamic ideologist who travelled throughout the Muslim world during the late 19th century.

The great-grandson of the Sayyid Mir Fazlullah was the German entrepreneur, Masood Dakkik.[1] Other descendants include qadi Qozi Sayyid Bahodirxon,[19][20] and the Sufi saints Tajuddin Muhammad Badruddin,[21] Pir Baba,[22] Sayyid Ahmed Amiruddin,[23][24] and the saint, Ishan Imlo 1162 AH (1748 CE) of Bukhara.[25][26]


Annemarie Schimmel wrote, "Khwaja Mir Dard's family, like many nobles from Bukhara, led their pedigree back to Baha'uddin Naqshband, after whom the Naqshbandi order is named, and who was a descendant, in the eleventh generation of the eleventh Shia imam, al-Hasan al-Askari."[7]

Burial place

The genealogy of Khwaja Samandar Muhammad ibn Baqi al-Termizi - the famous sheikh and poet, writer and scholar, author of "Dastur al Mulk" (Guide to Kings) (XVII сentury), goes back to Sultan Saadat - Amir Sayyid Ali Akbar Termizi - in turn Amir Sayyid Ali Akbar bin Imam Hassan Askari, it is mentioned in his history book called "Dastur al Mulk". The 15th century famous poet, musicologist, scholar of language and other sciences Sahib Balkhi Sharifi wrote about the Sayyids of Termiz. His one of the poems begins with the name of Sultan Saadat (Sultan of Sayyids), ie the praise of Amir Sayyid Ali Akbar Termizi. Therefore, Sultan Saadat (Sodot) is the Sultan of Sayyids and the owner (historians suggest that Sayyid Ali Akbar bin Imam Hassan al-Askari's burial place is located in the main mausoleum Sultan Saodat memorial complex) "Sultan Saodat" Mausoleum (erected 9-15 centuries) in Termez city - and Sultan Saadat is Sayyid Ali Akbar Termizi, which is also mentioned with the nickname (kunyat) Sayyid Abu Muhammad who presumably died at the end of the 9th century or early 10th century in Termez. Many tombs and nameless graves of more than a thousand sayyids are located in the "Sultan Saodat" memorial complex and its territory in Termez.[27][28][29][30][31]
