As mentioned in the book ''[[Wasilat al-khadim]]'' written by [[Fadl b. Ruzbihan]], a Sunni scholar of the 9th/15th and 10th/16th centuries, the [[Prophet (s)]] granted the fifth Imam (a) the mentioned epithet; and it is mentioned in a [[narration]] by [[Imam al-Sadiq (a)]] that the Prophet (s) gave the epithet “al-Baqir” to his father Imam al-Baqir (a) as an exclusive merit. The Prophet (s) promised [[Jabir b. Abd Allah al-Ansari]] that “you will live [long] until you see my son Muhammad b. Ali b. Husayn b. Ali b. Abi Talib (a), who has been blessed with the epithet al-Baqir in the [[Torah]], and when you meet him, pass my greetings to him.” | As mentioned in the book ''[[Wasilat al-khadim]]'' written by [[Fadl b.

Also, in another narration, in the book ''[[Tadhkirat al-khawas]]'', written by Sibt b. Jawzi (d. 654/1256-7), it is said that Imam (a) was called al-Baqir because his forehead was dented due to frequent [[prostration]]s. | Also, in another narration, in the book ''[[Tadhkirat al-khawas]]'', written by Sibt b. al-Jawzi (d. 654/1256-7), it is said that the fifth Imam (a) was called al-Baqir because his forehead was dented due to frequent [[prostration]]s. | ||
