Ma'mun the Abbasid caliph was the father of Umm al-Fadl. He was ruling in the time of [[Imam al-Rida (a)]]. In 202 A.H. Ma'mun requested Imam al-Jawad (a) to be married to Umm al-Fadl, which was accepted by Imam al-Rida (a). It is said Imam al-Jawad (a) travelled to [[Khorasan]] to visit his father, and Ma'mun asked him to marry his daughter. However [[Al-Mas'udi]] stated Imam al-Jawad (a) married Umm al-Fadl when he was in [[Iraq]]; it took place after the martyrdom of Imam al-Rida (a).

According to [[Al-Shaykh al-Mufid]], Ma'mun was greatly fond of knowledge, manners and morality of Imam al-Jawad (a) and he asked him to marry his daughter. Imam al-Rida (a) specified the dowry of the marriage the same as Lady Fatima's (s). Several supporters of Ma'mun disapproved this marriage as they were afraid caliphate would be handed from Abbasid to [[Alavis]]. Imam al-Jawad (a) did not have any children from Umm al-Fadl.

==Martyrdom of Imam al-Jawad (a)==
Based on [[Al-Mas'udi]], [[Mu'tasim]] and Ja'far b. Ma'mun (brother of Umm al-Fadl) were planning to martyr Imam al-Jawad (a). Finally when Imam (a) arrived in [[Baghdad]] to meet Mu'tasim, Ja'far encouraged Umm al-Fadl to poison grapes and bring them for Imam al-Jawad (a) which led to martyrdom of Imam al-Jawad (a). However, Al-Shaykh al-Mufid stated: "Although it is said Imam al-Jawad (a) was poisoned and martyred, it is not proved to me yet to testify martyrdom of Imam (a)." A number of sources stated that Mu'tasim himself poisoned Imam (a) by means of a secretary of his ministers.

Umm al-Fadl was repentant after this incident, but Imam (a) did not accept it and he cursed her. After the martyrdom of Imam al-Jawad (a), Mu'tasim brought Umm al-Fadl to his own palace, but she became severely sick and passed away after some time.
