Abd Allah ibn Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyya

ʿAbd Allāh ibn Muḥammad ibn al-Ḥanafiyya (Arabic: عبد الله بن محمد بن الحنفية) (died 98 AH; c. 716 CE),[1] also known as Abū Hāshim was a member of the Banu Hashim clan of the Quraish tribe in Mecca. He was one of the Salaf and a narrator of hadith. After Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyya died, his son Abu Hashim claimed the Imamate. According to medieval mystic Jami, Abu Hashim was the first person to be called a "Sufi".[citation needed]
