'''ʿAli AL-Hadi''', Abul-Hasan B. Muhammad B. ‘Ali B. Musa al-‘Askari, is the 10th [[imam]] of the [[Imami]] Shiʿites (d. 254/868). Besides Hadi, his most common epithet is Naqi; in Shiʿite sources he is often referred to as Abu’l-Hasan al-Thaleth. He was summoned to [[Samarra]] by the [[Abbasid]] caliph Al-Mutawakkil and lived under direct surveillance of the rulers of his time. There he was treated roughly by the caliph and his successors until, according to [[Shiʿa|Shi’ite]] accounts, he was poisoned through intrigue of Al-Mu'tazz the Abbasid caliph, in 254/868, and was buried in Samarra. | |||

He was born, according to the best authenticated report, on 16 Dhu’l-hejja 212/7 March 828 in Sorayya, a village three miles from Medina founded by his great-grandfather, [[Musa al-Kazem]]. Other dates given for his birth are in Rajab or Dhu’l-hejja, 213 or 214/September, 828/January, 830. His mother was a concubine named Samana or Susan, probably of Maqrebi origin. When his father, Imam [[Muhammad al-Jawad]], died in Baghdad on 6 Dhu’l-hejja 220/30 November 835, he was still a minor. According to his father’s will, he was to receive his estates, property, and slaves after reaching majority to the exclusion of his brother Musa. | He was born, according to the best authenticated report, on 16 Dhu’l-hejja 212/7 March 828 in Sorayya, a village three miles from Medina founded by his great-grandfather, [[Musa al-Kazem]].
