 ==Martyrdom==
 It is reported that he was martyred in Rajab 5th, 224, at the age of 58. There are different reports about how he was martyred. Some say that he was martyred because he was a Shi'a and they narrate that al-Mutawakkil, the Abbasid Caliph, asked him to compare al-Mutawakkil's sons (al-Mu'taz and al-Mu'ayad) with Imam Ali's sons (Imam al-Hasan (a) and Imam al-Husayn (a)) he said, "By God, Qanbar, the servant of Ali b. Abi Talib is superior to your sons and their father"; therefore, he was killed by al-Mutawakkil's order. It is also reported that al-Mutawwakil's servants threw him on ground and trampled on him, then they took him to his home where he passed away.
