Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Abdallah

Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Abdallah or Muhammad al-Imâm was the son of Ali ibn Abd Allah ibn al-Abbas and great-grandson of al-‘Abbas ibn ‘Abd al-Muttalib, the uncle of the Islamic prophet, Muhammad. He was born in Humayma in Jordan,[1] and was the progenitor of the Abbasid dynasty.

Revolt of Mukhtar al-Thaqafi

When al-Mukhtar announced the revenge of Imam al-Husayn, he showed himself as the representative of Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah, the Promised Mehdi according to him.

Sixth Imam of Kaysanites

After the death of Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah, the imamate of Kaysanites Shia transferred to his son Abu Hashim, who transferred it to Muhammad, paving the way for the Abbasid dawa and the Abbasid Revolution.[2]
