'''Abbas B. Ali B. Abu Taleb''' (d. 61/680), known as Abu Fadl (father of excellence) and Qamar Bani l-Hashim (the Moon of Banu Hashim), was a half-brother of [[Hussain ibn Ali|Imam Hussain]] who fought bravely at the [[battle of Karbala]]. ‘Abbas was killed, according to most traditions, on the day of [[Ashura|‘Ashura]] (10 [[Muharram]] 61/10 October 680) while trying to bring back [[water]] from the Euphrates river to quench the unbearable thirst of the besieged [[Ahl-e Bayt]]. His mother, the daughter of Hizam b. Khalid b. Rabi’a from the Arab tribe of Banu Kilab, was the mother of three more sons of [[ʿAli ibn Abi Talib|Ali b. Abi Talib]], and for this reason she became known as Umm al-Banin. All three brothers of ‘Abbas were killed just before him: Abdallah, Jaʿfar, and Othman.<ref>Mofid, loc. cit.; Dinavari, al-Akhbar al-tewal, Cairo, 1330/1911-12, pp. 254f.</ref>
