Imam Musa Al-Kathum(as) The Infallible Seventh Holy Imam
- Name: Musa(as)
- Title: Al-Kathum
- Kunyat: Abu Ali
- Born: On Sunday, 17th of Safar, 128 AH, in Abwa, Arabia
- Father: The Sixth Imam Jafar Al-Sadiq(as)
- Mother: Umme Hameeda
- Date of death: 25th Rajab 183 AH, at the age of 55 years old.
- Cause of Death: Murdered by poisoning by Harroun Al-Rasheed Al-Abbassi
- Buried: In Baghdad, Iraq.
The Seventh Holy Imam Musa AI-Kathum(as) the son of the Imam Jafar Al-Sadiq(as) and Umm Hameeda.
He was born in place called Abwa between Mecca and Medina.
He died of poison while he was imprisoned for fouteen years of unjustified and torturous imprisonment in Haroun's Jail, without scacely any food and water..
So much was his torture and starvation that his body was bundle of bones covered up by loose broken skin, due to the daily whippings he received from his jailers.
His body was prepared for burial by his son the Eighth Imam Ali AI-Reda(as) and was buried where his shrine stands today in the Kathumiya suburb of Baghdad, in Iraq.
He was the most knowledgeable person of his time and the best of them. He was very generous, brave and of excellent spiritual perfections and worship with long prostrations in the presence of Allah(swt).
His control over his anger was as such that he was named, AI-Kathum, which means having great control over one's anger.
Once a poor person asked him for some help, and the Imam(as) just to know the man's attitude of mind asked him some questions. When the man answered them properly, the Imam rewarded him in appreciation of alertness of the man's mind gave him a thousand Dirham instead of a hundred that he had asked for.
His love of worshipping Allah and prostrating before Him was so much that he breathed his last breath during his prostration before Allah(swt).

0 My Lord, The Calamity has Aggravated, the Absence prolonged, and the curtain of Modesty has been lifted and hope has been curtailed and the earth has been Narrow and sky has been denied and You are the One from whom help is sought and complaints are made and in you we trust at the time of difficulties.
Oh Allah ! Send blessings upon Mohammad (S.A.) and the progeny of Mohammad (S.A.), the possessors of authority whose obedience you have enjoined upon us and by that made us aware of their position. Then do solve for us due to them an immedate opening, immediate as a wink or sooner than that.
O Mohammad ! O Ali ! O Ali !O Mohammad ! Suffice me both of you or both of you are sufficient, Help me you two for you are my helpers.
O My Master, O Master of the Time, Help ! Help! Help! Rescue me, Rescue me,Rescue me. This moment, this moment, Hasten, Hasten, Hasten!
O Most Merciful of Mercifuls, for the sake of Mohammad (S.A) and his holy progeny.
