In that bad time where everything shook under the hoofs of mad horses, that fifty years-old-man stopped…his eyes traveled through an infinite sky and his hands extended whereto hearts would turn towards in the moment when the waves were about to destroy a straying ship…calm words entreating Allah suppliantly: “O, You, Who have guided me to Yourself and made my heart submit to believe in You… I beseech You to grant me safety and belief in this life and the afterlife.” [50] Fatima came in and sat beside her brother to feel security in a world full of terror…to absorb goodness in [50] Usool al-Kafi, vol.2 p.579.

He narrated knowledge from his father Imam as-Sadiq (s).
He lived in Mecca and when the war between al-Ameen and al-Ma’moon broke out; he revolted in Mecca and was paid homage as the caliph. He was called as ameerul mo’minen. The people of Hijaz paid homage to him. Then al-Ma’moon sent an army to defeat the revolution. Muhammad bin Ja’far yielded after his forces had been defeated. He ascended the minbar to announce his apology to al-Ma’moon.
defeated while it was yet a bud and then the forces of al-Ma’moon went towards Medina to revenge on the Alawites.
