Well, she(sister) use to study with me. I mean Zakiyaa.
Nafas ka pata nahee. I think Its your first name..
take care
i think more than one has been mentioned. One i think was 'seyed Baqir al Hakim' who was killed in najaf was it? the rest im not so sure of.
nafs-e-zakiya was a leader working against the abbasi khalifa in order to get a proper islamic government....
he lived in the time of imam abu hanifa and i think just after imam jaafar (or maybe during his life too)....
i think he and his brother were executed by the khalifa....
Nafs az-Zakiyya was the great grand of Hazrat Hassan bin Ali (raa). His father, 'Abdullah bin Hasan al-Muthanna, presented him as the Mahdi.
Here are few details about him from this link: NameBright - Coming Soon
Muhammad bin 'Abdullah bin Hasan al-Muthanna bin Hasan bin 'Ali, known as Muhammad Nafs az-Zakiyya–Muhammad, master of the pure soul, was promoted by his father 'Abdullah as the Mahdi.
In a meeting of some 'Alids and some 'Abbasids (including Abu Ja’far al-Mansur who later on became the 2nd 'Abbasid caliph), in Abwa, outside Medina, the plot to overthrow the Umayyids was hatched. It was in this gathering that 'Abdullah presented his son as the Mahdi to whom all should pledge allegiance.
When Imam Ja’far as-Sadiq (a.s.) was informed about the meeting and its purpose, he went there and advised against the plot, and also rejected --very openly and clearly-- the claim of Mahdism by Muhammad Dhu Nafs az-Zakiyya. Upon this rejection, 'Abdullah bin Hasan accused Imam as-Sadiq of envy and jealousy.
The group did not listen to the Imam’s advice; they went ahead with their plan in which the 'Abbasids treacherously usurped the power, and killed or pushed aside all those who were instrumental in bringing down the Umayyid dynasty.
'Abdullah bin Hasan al-Muthanna was arrested on Mansur’s orders and put in prison. His sons, Muhammad Nafs Zakiyya and Ibrahim, went into hiding. Finally Muhammad organized an uprising, took over Mecca and Medina; but he was unable to defend himself against the 'Abbasid forces sent to crush the uprising. Muhammad Nafs Zakiyya was killed in the battle outside Medina in 145 A.H. (See al-Mufid, Kitab al-Irshad, pp. 417-419, 'Abbas al-Qummi, Muntahal Amal, volume 1; Abul Faraj al-Isfahani, Maqatilut Talibiyin, and other books on Islamic history).
