Ismāʿīl ibn Ja‘far al-Mubārak (Arabic: إسماعيل بن جعفر; c. born: 719 AD, Medina - died circa 755 AD, Syria) was the eldest son of Imam Ja'far al-Sadiq, and he was the full-brother of Abdullah al-Aftah. His mother, Fatima bint al-Hussain'l-Athram bin al-Hasan bin Ali, was the first wife of Ja'far al-Sadiq. Following Ja'far's death, the Shia community split between the element that would become the Twelver Shia, and those who believed the Imamate passed through to Ismail's son; the Ismaili branch of Shia Islam is accordingly named for Ismail.[1] According to both the Nizari and Mustaali Shia sects, he is the sixth Imam.
The Ismāʿīlī-Ithna’asheri Division
Ismāʿīlī followed Ismail ibn Jafar as the sixth Imam after Ja'far al-Sadiq[2] instead of them, Twelver Shia Muslims follow Musa al-Kadhim as successor of Jafar ibn Muhammad.[3][4][5][6][7][8][9]
Ismāʿīlī sources deny the death of Isma'il Ibn Jafar in the life of Jafar ibn Muhmmad[10] However other Shia and Sunni Muslims believe that he died in the life of Jafar ibn Muhammad al-Sadiq.[11][12][13][14][15][16]
Burial Place
According to Ismāʿīlī sources, he is buried in Al-Salamiyah, a city located in Syria.[17] Twelver Shia's and Sunni Muslims sources have contradicted this information, stating that he was buried in Al-Baqi' Medina, the holy Islamic city located in Saudi Arabia.[18][19][20][21][22][23] However, some Ismāʿīlī sources also point to Al-Baqi' Madina as the burial place of Isma'il ibn Jafar.[24]
