Ali al-Uraydi ibn Ja'far al-Sadiq, (Arabic: علي العريضي بن جعفر الصادق, romanized: ʿAlī al-ʿUrayḍī ibn Jaʿfar al-Ṣādiq) better known simply as Ali al-Uraydi, was the son of Ja'far al-Sadiq and the brother of Isma'il, Musa al-Kazim, Abdullah al-Aftah, and Muhammad Al-Dibaj. He was known by the title al-Uraydi, because he lived in an area called Urayd, about 4 miles (or 6.4 km) from Medina. He was also known by the nickname Abu al-Hasan (i.e. father of Hasan).
Life
Ali al-Uraydi (علي العريضي) was born and raised in Medina. He was the youngest son of Ja'far al-Sadiq. After his father died whilst he was still a child, he left Medina for the town of Al-Urayd, where he settled and became the sheikh of all Banu Hashim and the Naqib (prefect) of the descendants of Muhammad.
He lived approximately 100 years, until the time of his brother Musa al-Kazim’s great-grandson Ali al-Hadi (828-868) and died in Al-Urayd and was buried there.
Descendants
The children and descendants of Ali al-Uraydi became known as al-Uraydiyun. They inhabited many areas, including Al-Urayd, Kufa, Baghdad, Sham (the region of Syria), Nusaybin, Turkey, Ahwaz, Rayy (Tehran), Isfahan, Yazd, Qom, Khwarazm and Afghanistan.
His sons were:
Ahmad al-Sha'rani
Hasan
Ja'far al-Asghar
Muhammad al-Naqib - who was born in Medina. After his father died, he left for Basra, where he became the Naqib (prefect) of the Ahl al-Bayt. He was a man of great learning who preferred isolation and was known for his zuhd (abstinence).
Isa al-Rumi - He was a great 'alim (learned scholar) and ‘arif (spiritual master). He was the Naqib of the Ahl al-Bayt in Basra.
Ahmad al-Muhajir (873-956/260-345H) - who was born in Basra. Al-Tabari, the famous 'alim and historian, held him in great esteem and gave him immense respect. He held the company of Bishr al-Hafi, among others. After performing Hajj in 318 A.H. he migrated to Hadhramaut in the same year and settled there. From Hadhramaut he called people to God. He was given the title Al-Muhajjir (the Emigrant) primarily because he had travelled the path to God and secondarily because he had emigrated from Iraq to Hadhramaut. From Hadhramaut his descendants became the illustrious Alawi sadat, and most Sayyid’s and Habib’s residing in Indonesia and Southeast Asia are descended from him.
Ubayd Allah
Alawi - who became a great Imam. It is from his name from whom the name of the tribe Bani Alawi is derived. Therefore, the Bani Alawi is the Ashraaf sadat (noble descendants) of Muhammad. Furthermore, many families in Hadhramaut, India, the Hejaz, Africa, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Myanmar and the rest of the world are descendants of Imam Alawi ibn Ubayd Allah.
